Her 2010 state champs went 21-0 against Southern Arizona opponents with just one contributing senior, Oybeq Kholiqov. "We wanted to leave a mark in Tucson volleyball and I feel like we’ve really done that," said Moore-Martin, who played on Catalina’s 1983 girls state championship team and later coached at Green Fields Country Day School and as an assistant at Pima College."We dominated all season."
She was in demand. After the 2013 season, Moore-Martin was hired to be the girls volleyball coach at Salpointe Catholic. At the time, no Tucson school had won a girls state volleyball championship since the days of Rincon’s Juanita Kingston and Flowing Wells’ Ed Nymeyer She has coached Salpointe to state championships in 2016, 2017 and 2020, as well as coaching the Lancers’ beach volleyball team to 2021 and 2022 state titles.
