I went to St. Stephens in Alexandria. But I went to games to watch Marty. I never saw anything like him. I watched him play against Wakefield. Their defense that night consisted of putting a box of four men against Marty. He still scored at will……..over 30 points as I remember.
During my time in high school, there were many great basketball players. Elgin Baylor, John Thomson, George Manger and Fred Hetzel come to mind. But there was one Marty.
There has never been a high school pure shooter like Marty. Those of us who saw him were seeing someone whose likes will never be seen again.

Thanks Ed. He must have been something to see. We hope to interview Dave Heller of the Times about the teams and players he has covered during his career- Lentz included.
