Martin on Carrera
"While only 6'5 in height, Michael is 7'2" in reach, which means he plays the game bigger than his listed height. He was coached by one of the great high school coaches in our country in Stu Vetter at Montrose Christian. Coach Vetter feels that Michael is as good a rebounder as he's ever coached, and that includes George Lynch and players of that caliber."

Pre-South Carolina
Played for head coach Stu Vetter at Montrose Christian School ... Averaged 13.2 points and 12.2 rebounds during senior season ... Regarded as a high energy player with great work ethic and hustle.

Personal
