Over the next two weeks, Cat Scratches will give fans an inside look at UK softball’s 2015 roster with 20 fun questions and a quick outlook heading into the team’s season opener on Feb. 4 vs. Florida A&M. Although she did not see game action last spring, infielder/outfielder Stephanie Martino was a vital part of UK’s 2014 success, traveling to nearly all road games and severing as the ultimate teammate. A native of Glen Gardner, N.J., Martino played in five games last fall, seeing time mostly at second base and recording an RBI. Martino was a star player for Voorhees Regional High School, posting a career batting average of .436 as a four-year starter at third base. Martino helped lead her team to the 2011 and 2012 divisional championship and earned all-county first-team, all-conference first-team and Defensive MVP honors two years in a row. Martino was an honor student in high school and was very active in her community, earning Bronze Level Community Service recognition after volunteering over 100 hours at the Hunterdon Healthcare Physical Therapy Center. Come see Stephanie and the rest of the Kentucky Wildcats this spring at John Cropp Stadium. UK’s home opener is March 11 vs. EKU at 5 p.m. ET. Season tickets can be purchased by calling the UK Ticket Office at 1-800-928-2287, in person at the Joe Craft Center Ticket Office or online at www.ukathletics.com/tickets.
