Ever since Corner Canyon High senior Kemery Martin signed her national letter of intent to play basketball for the University of Utah last summer, her senior year has gone smoothly. She led the Chargers to the Class 5A title game — a first for the program — and had her sights set on being named a McDonald’s All-American.
Although Corner Canyon lost in the championship contest, and she did not make the McDonald’s team after being nominated, Martin got a consolation prize Friday when she was named Utah Gatorade Player of the Year for the 2018-19 season.
