BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – For the third straight year, Indiana senior offensive lineman Wes Martin earned a spot on the Google Cloud Academic All-District® Football Team, selected by CoSIDA, it was announced today. The honor recognizes the nation's top student-athletes for their combined performances on the field and in the classroom.
First team Academic All-District® honorees advance to the Google Cloud Academic All-America® ballot. First and second team (if applicable) Academic All-America® honorees will be announced in early December.
A criminal justice major with a 3.77 grade point average, Martin was one of five O-linemen on the District 5 team. Martin has allowed just two sacks in 771 offensive snaps this year after he recorded the most pass blocking snaps (569) among guards nationally without allowing a sack in 2017.
The West Milton, Ohio, native, has started 35 straight games at left guard (41 overall) and was a semifinalist for the 2018 William V. Campbell Trophy, known as college football's Academic Heisman. Martin has earned three Academic All-Big Ten honors and will soon collect his fourth in as many eligible seasons.
He has served as a game captain for all 10 games this year and was named a 2017 team captain. Martin tallied honorable mention All-Big Ten accolades one season ago in addition to being named the team's Most Outstanding Lineman.
