ATHLETE OF THE WEEK: Tramir Martin

Tramir Martin |  Asheboro, boys’ basketball

Martin, a senior guard, had a strong three-game run in the Mid-Piedmont Conference Tournament as the Blue Comets pulled out a championship.

He scored a total of 41 points in the three games, giving the Blue Comets a lift with his backcourt play. His defensive work boosted Asheboro to some key rallies, particularly in the semifinal.

Martin notched 11 points in a rout of Montgomery Central in the quarterfinals before leading the charge with 17 points in a semifinal victory against Central Davidson. He added 13 points in Friday night’s 60-52 win over top-seeded Ledford in the championship game.
