On the back of its first road meet of the season, No. 2 Oregon acrobatics and tumbling (4-1) had a standout member of its freshman class recognized once again by the NCATA.
Base Angelica Martin was named the NCATA Freshman of the Week honorable mention following the Ducks’ win over No. 3 Quinnipiac University on March 23. Martin competes in multiple events for Oregon — and the Ducks scored at least 9.40 in every heat she participated in, per the NCATA. This week was the fourth time Martin has received either the honorable mention or overall award this season.
Iona University freshman Emerson Johnson won the week’s overall award. Johnson, a tumbler and back-base, competed in two meets for the No. 6 Gaels over the past week, against No. 7 UMHB and No. 1 Baylor.
The Ducks and Gaels face off on Friday in New Rochelle, NY. Meet time is set for 3:00 p.m. Pacific Time.
