Hello Carson Martinez

The Demons are playing true freshman walk-on Carson Martinez at quarterback as the third quarter is underway. Drew Branch (Knee) and Germyane Edmond are just unable to play, so a guy who wasn't even with the team until classes began is now the quarterback. And he's doing admirably.

He drove NSU inside the 20 but a fourth-down gamble failed on the opening series of the third quarter.

Martinez is from Jennings, and he's the son of former NSU pitching coach (under Johnnie Emmons) Jerry Martinez. He's at NSU on a full academic scholarship. He's just completed a nice third-and-long pass and has the Demons moving again.
