MEMPHIS, Tenn. – During his long, successful career as University of Memphis track and field coach, Kevin Robinson has sent dozens of athletes to the NCAA Championships.
Some have been in position to earn NCAA individual titles, others have contributed to solid relay teams. A few have been consistent, annual performers.
And then there's Martina Rodriguez Sala.
When the Tigers send nine athletes to the NCAA Championships June 6-9 at Eugene, Ore., Rodriguez Sala – in her final year at the UofM – will be making her debut on the sport's biggest stage.
