ESPN - Mobility a hallmark of top 2009 interior offensive linemen - Football Recruiting
Quote:
The state of Utah is not considered a powerhouse of high school football, but it is vastly improving. The top two guards in '09 class both hail from the Beehive State and are great friends. John Martinez (Salt Lake City/Cottonwood) and Xavier Su'a Filo (Pleasant Grove, Utah/Timpview) are deserving of their rankings.
At 6-foot-2, 264 pounds, Martinez is not as big physically as you might expect, but the way he plays is huge. He moves with the tenacity of a linebacker and is a devastating puller and trapper. Martinez plays with great intensity from the first snap until the last whistle and has exceptional lower-body agility and change of direction.
