Lauren Martin, Adams State: NCAA DII Athlete Hall of Fame, Class of 2025

Lauren Martin (now Masterson) blazed her own trail from Adams State to a Hall of Fame one race at a time. Four of those races ended with Martin claiming victory at either the NCAA DII Indoor or Outdoor Track & Field Championships, including a pair of them at the 2016 outdoor meet in the 5000 and 10,000 meters. Those two came two years after her first two: an indoor 5000-meter crown and another 10,000-meter podium-topper. Martin earned ten career All-America honors between the three seasons and won six individual titles at the RMAC Championships. In 2016, Martin was named the USTFCCCA National Scholar Outdoor Track Athlete of the Year and was part of the NCAA Woman of the Year Top 30.
