Alijah Martin was integral to FAU basketball’s Cinderella run at last season’s March Madness. This season, Martin is playing a bigger role in the rotation. He started 17 of 20 games so far, which almost matches his total from last season. He averages 13.5 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 1.5 assists.

The junior started all 33 games for the Owls in 2021-22, but after seeing a change in his minutes last season, he knew he had to improve in the offseason. Alijah Martin is now eyeing an NBA future by focusing on better dynamic training methods, and a healthier lifestyle.

Alijah Martin’s new mindset

Martin’s mindset when heading into a workout is to get 1% better every time. He regularly works on lift shots, drift shots, and finding spots to shoot over a defender. He is motivated by last season’s tournament run, calling it “magical” and a “blessing.” Martin wants to make FAU a household name before he leaves to embark on a professional career. His goal for the New Year is to grow as a player and a person, and he wants to win more championships as he became addicted to the feeling from last season. He is choosing to live healthier and fully commit to the FAU program.

One way that Martin lives a healthier lifestyle is by drinking non-alcoholic beer from Athletic Brewing Co. Athletic Brewing Co. is dedicated to crafting delicious non-alcoholic beer you can enjoy anytime and anywhere with no worries or hangovers. The company prides itself on having a handcrafted proprietary process that allows the beer to maintain full flavor. The company started in Stratford, Connecticut, founded by Bill and Jon. They have essential brews such as Run Wild, Upside Dawn, Free Wave, Cerveza Atletica, and Athletic Lite. The company releases experimental batches, limited-edition styles, and collaborative brews.
