Viking Senior
Mac Martin
What was your greatest Central Catholic
Hockey moment and why?
My greatest Central Catholic Hockey moment is the
whole playoff journey last season. The entire
journey really just made me row closer with the
guys and realize how special a group of guys we
have here.
What has Central Catholic taught you?
Central has taught me that one place can change a
group of strangers to brothers. It’s really special
here.
Who has influenced your hockey career or who
do you admire and why?
Ryan Haag, he has always been a player that I have
looked up to and wanted to be like. The way he
played and carried himself on and off the ice made
me want to recreate that for myself. He has always
been a model player for me.
What is your favorite quote?
“The 4 looks like a window”
-Bill Connolly
If you could pick one hockey player, past or
present, to have dinner with, who would it be
and why?
I would pick Alex Ovechkin, just because he’s the
man.
What are your plans for after graduation?
I plan to attend college and pursue accounting.
What would you want your teammates to
remember about you?
I want everyone to remember about me that no
matter how serious or sad things got during the
season, I always laughed and had fun. If you don’t
have fun and enjoy your time there’s no point in
playing.
What would you "will" to an underclassman
and who would you "will" it to?
I would “will” the idea of leadership and hard work
to my brother Dayne. I want him to continue to
grow and become a better player.
