Martinez's energy paces Tar Heels

Posted Dec 9, 2011
On the field, North Carolina's Enzo Martinez is as fierce a competitor as one would expect the starting midfielder for the top-ranked men's college soccer team to be. Off the field, though, Martinez shelves the ferocity for a more polite demeanor, thanking reporters for covering the game before fielding questions. "A lot of the times after the game, I go home and I feel bad because I yelled at the ref or I yell at a teammate," Martinez said. (Charlotte Observer)
