Men’s Basketball’s Martinez To Have Jersey Retired At STCC
CHICOPEE, Mass. – Elms College junior
forward Edgar Martinez (Springfield, Mass.) will
have his No. 21 jersey retired at Springfield Technical Community
College (STCC) on Thursday, Dec. 3 during the team’s game
against Dean College at 8:00 p.m.
Martinez, who played for the Rams from 2007-2009 before
transferring to Elms, was a two-time Junior College All-American
(first time in school history), and scored 1,068 points during that
span.
“The school was very supportive, not only of me but of the
entire program,” Martinez said. “That was a huge key to
our success. Everyone contributed, players, coaches,
administrators, it was great to be a part of that.”
In his first year with the Blazers, Martinez has already made his
presence felt. He has collected 28 points, 18 rebounds and is 4 of
6 from the free throw line through the first four games of the
2009-10 season.
