Mary Martinez gives MTSU a versatile, high-IQ arm in the circle
In the 2026 season, Mary Martinez has been a multi-use pitcher for Middle Tennessee, with complete-game upside, relief flexibility, and a knack for big moments—she threw a complete game with four hitless innings and no earned runs against Blue Raider Classic competition, and earlier in 2025 she logged a 3.70 ERA over 58.2 innings while ranking second on the team in strikeouts per seven innings. She’s also a standout student-athlete, earning 2025 Conference USA All-Academic Team honors, which adds a strong work-ethic signal beyond the box score. If your team wants a poised, durable right-hander who can start or stabilize the late innings, she’s the kind of quietly nasty fit that makes coaches grin.
