DeShawn Martin Commits to Army
DeShawn Martin, a 2026 kicker from De La Salle Spartans, has committed to Army. Martin chose the Black Knights due to their strong emphasis on special teams, which aligns with his own skills and playing style. He also cited Army's depth chart opportunity, as the team is looking to rebuild its kicking corps. Additionally, Martin was drawn to the academic program at West Point, which offers a rigorous and challenging environment that will help him prepare for his future. Martin previously held offers from several Power 5 schools but decommitted from one program in May to focus on his recruitment. He plans to attend Army's summer camp in July to get a head start on his training and meet with coaches. Martin's commitment to Army marks a significant addition to the Black Knights' special teams unit.
