Ja’Lique Martin Closing in on Sophomore Receiving Record

Before the 2017 season started, some Squalicum players and coaches had told me to look out for Ja’Lique Martin. Not only has the 5-foot-11 160-pound sophomore produced, but he has made some outstanding plays. It also doesn’t matter what position he’s playing. He returns kicks, he runs fly sweeps, he’s intercepted three passes on defense, he’s even taken a few dozen snaps at quarterback! But, he has really shined at wide receiver. He has made miraculous catches, out-leaping opponents, and some one-handed. He also has amazing agility, leaving defenders in the dust and he’s been extremely hard to tackle. He’s just a great football player.

He has 36 catches so far this season, which ties him for fifth all-time for receptions in a sophomore season.
