Lead Story

According to a release, Martin will be inducted into the North Carolina Sports Hall of Fame. Martin will be inducted at a May 4 ceremony at the Raleigh Convention Center.
“This is certainly one of the exciting moments in my career to be recognized by my home state of North Carolina,†Martin said in a release. “There are many memories from my time in that great state and I look forward to the induction ceremony in May.â€
