In the 800m, Martin is the No. 6 seed based on her time of 2 minutes, 7.91 seconds from the New England Championships a few weeks ago. Among the field is New York's Samantha Watson, who will be aiming for the American and Junior high school record of 1:59.51 by Mary Cain in 2013.
Martin is the No. 2 seed in the steeplechase with her best of 6:46.63. The race also includes former Bellingham standout Sarah Edwards, a freshman at Virginia Tech, who ran a best of 9:52.89 at the NCAA Division I East Championships.
