Florida State's Mike Martin named ACC baseball coach of the year
Florida State's Mike Martin, whose team rebounded from a sluggish start to earn the No. 1 seed in the ACC tournament, was named the league's baseball coach of the year.
Mike Martin has earned that award five other times -- 1996, 1998, 1999, 2001 and 2007 -- but perhaps no other was more fitting given how much his young Florida State team improved. And how quickly.
At one point, the Seminoles were 9-7 and 1-3 in the ACC.
They enter Wednesday's league tournament 40-14, including 19-9 in the ACC.
Meanwhile, sophomore outfielder Tyler Holt (.402, 74 runs, 31 stolen bases) and freshman pitcher Sean Gilmartin (10-2, 3.71 ERA) were named first team all-ACC. Junior second baseman Jason Stidham, junior shortstop Stephen Cardullo and utility player Mike McGee (a sophomore outfielder and starting pitcher) were named second team all-ACC.
