Sydney Martin, the daughter of former longtime Guam residents Richard and Virginia Martin, recently helped her Little League all-star softball team win the Florida State 9-10 championship.

Sydney was the winning pitcher in the championship game, held July 22 in Orlando. From there, her team competed in and won the Southeast Region Tournament of State Champions in Luray, Va. In that tournament, Sydney pitched in all five of her team’s victories, allowing no runs in 12 innings of work.

Her parents are 1985 graduates of John F. Kennedy High School and 1989 and 1990 graduates of the University of Guam. Richard also was sports editor of the Pacific Daily News from 1989-92.

After leading a cast of sports journalists such as Eddie Siguenza, Ron Ige, Jojo Santo Tomas and Patrick Lujan, Richard moved on to work for newspapers in Melbourne, Fla., Salinas, Calif., Seattle, Wash., and is currently an editor at the Tampa Bay Times.

Ashley Samaniego and the UCLA Bruins made it to the NCAA Women’s Final Four, before losing to eventual champions UConn.
The 2007 Simon Sanchez graduate is in his first year with the Bruins women’s basketball team as the Director of Athletic Performance. This after years at California State University, Northridge in the same capacity.
Coach Ash must be bringing some goodness to the Bruins as UCLA is currently ranked #1 in the country and earned its first No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament in program history.
