Queens College’s Lucas Martinez was named East Coast Conference (ECC) Rookie of the Week for the second consecutive week in men’s tennis. The freshman has now received the honor in each of the last two weeks as he has helped the Knights start its 2015 campaign at 4-1.

In an 8-1 victory over Hunter on March 4, Martinez won his match at second singles over Carlos Sala 6-3, 6-4, and also teamed up with Federico Toscano to win at third doubles.

Later in the week, Martinez took the court at third singles and came back to defeat Nikolay Lisichenok 3-6, 6-3, 10-8 in a 9-0 win over Stonehill College.

Martinez also won his match at fourth singles in a 5-4 defeat to MIT last Saturday.

The freshman has been an integral part of the early success for Queens College. The Knights will be back in action when it hosts Bloomfield on Wednesday, March 18 at 1:00 p.m.
