McMartin has posted a glossy 73-23 record (.760). He’s a three-time conference coach of the year (2005, 2006, 2007) and was named an AFCA Division III regional coach of the year in 2007. McMartin’s squads have posted three undefeated regular seasons, with a 28-game regular-season win streak from 2006-08. McMartin, who also serves as the team’s quarterbacks coach, has been a part of one of the nation’s most tradition-rich college football programs as a player, student assistant and now head coach. Central’s 2009 league title was the program’s 2 Football 30th and the school’s 20 NCAA Division III playoff berths are the third-most in the U.S. The Dutch have compiled 17 unde- feated regular seasons and haven’t had a losing football campaign since 1960. Named as one of 10 “hot” coaches in the NCAA Division III by American Football Monthly in 2005, McMartin also gained extensive coaching experience at other schools for 13 years, coaching nearly every position. Prior to returning to Central, McMartin was the offensive coordinator and offensive line coach at DePauw University (Ind.). During his four years there, DePauw broke several school offensive records. From 1995-2000, he served as offensive line coach at Beloit College (Wis.) where he also worked with special teams. From 1994-95 he was the defensive line coach at the University of Rochester (N.Y.) and was defensive line coach at Illinois Wesleyan University from 1992-94. He was a graduate assistant at Wake Forest from 1990-92. McMartin graduated from Central in 1990 with a bachelor’s of arts degree in physical education. He earned a master’s degree in liberal studies from Wake Forest University (N.C.) in 1992 in liberal studies. While at Central, McMartin served as a student coach under hall of fame coach Ron Schipper for two seasons after a career-ending injury. He was also a student coach at Oskaloosa High School in 1987.
