Martin (24) left IMG Bradenton Academy in 2010 and joined the Akron Zips for a year before transferring to Furman. After school he joined PSA Elite for a short stint before traveling overseas to Europe, and Luxembourg.

Martin had 5 goals and 3 assists last season for Hamm Benfica in 24 league appearances, Hamm finished 9th in the 14 team BGL. Jeunesse would seem a step up, as they finished 1 spot out of a Euro place next season, entering the Europa League Qualification Round.
