Jordan Martinson lettered three years while playing at Birdville High School in Richland Hills, Texas. He won various All-State and All-District honors, being recognized as the district’s Pitcher of the Year in 2014, and the district’s MVP as a senior. His domination while on the baseball diamond came as no surprise, as he comes from a family of athletes. His brother, Jason, played baseball at Texas State and was drafted by the Washington Nationals in the fifth round of the 2010 MLB Draft, and played in their minor league system for nine years before finally being tendered his release this season.
