HENRICO COUNTY, Va. -- Fresno State quarterback Khristian Martin returned to his alma mater, Highland Springs, on Friday night to host his second youth football camp.
More than 50 kids ages 7 to 14 braved triple-digit heat to work through drills led by Martin, along with several of his former Highland Springs teammates and coaches.
For Martin, there was never a question about holding the camp despite the extreme heat — not when it comes to the community that helped shape him.
"When a place gives so much to you, it's right to give back in any way that you can," Martin said. "This is just one way that I can give back to a community that helped bring me up and get me to where I am. So if I can, you know, help another kid, they can learn something today, learn a lesson, I think it's a great opportunity."
