RUTHERFORD ON MARTIN: "Erika will play both the forward and post positions for us. She will give us depth at those positions. She is a very physical player and has great one-on-one moves to the basket. Erika has worked hard during preseason conditioning to become a stronger player, and to refine her skills for this level of competition. We do have great expectations for Erika once she learns the collegiate system."
