UW-Whitewater sophomore Drake Martin, a 2021 graduate of Rhinelander High School, received first-team all-conference recognition from the Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletics Conference on Thursday for his contributions to the Warhawks' special teams this year.

Martin was one of four players to earn first-team nods for special teams contributions. He had four tackles on the season. In a game against UW-Eau Claire Oct. 8, Martin blocked one punt and recovered a loose ball on another blocked punt.

Martin, who finished his career at No. 2 all-time on Rhinelander career rushing list, saw limited action out of the backfield this year, with two rushes for eight yards and eight receptions for 62 yards.

Whitewater (8-3) won its 39th conference championship this fall and lost Saturday 33-28 to Aurora University in the first round of the NCAA Division III playoffs. Martin caught his second touchdown pass of the season in the contest.
