Meet Luke Martin, a senior at Oakman High School whose passion for sports extends far beyond the playing field. Excelling in both football as a wide receiver and baseball as a pitcher and centerfielder, Luke has left an indelible mark under the mentorship of Coach Ryan Hall.
Luke says that his love for baseball, particularly his role as a centerfielder, stems from the thrill of the game and the challenge of making daring catches. Off the field, he’s equally dedicated to his studies, maintaining a commendable GPA of 3.8, and actively participates in the Future Farmers of America (FFA).

Looking ahead, Luke plans to pursue a career as a lineman for Alabama Power. He is the son of Johnny Martin Jr. and Amanda Martin.
Congratulations, Luke, on your achievements both in athletics and academics. Best wishes for your future endeavors! WL
