  Carlton Martial became the FBS all-time leader in tackles when the fifth-year senior notched the 546th of his career and Troy went on to beat Army 10-9 on Saturday after Quinn Maretzki missed a 42-yard field goal with 15 seconds remaining. Martial, a linebacker, finished with 22 tackles for Troy (8-2), passing Luke Kuechly's record total of 532 while playing for Boston College from 2009-11. Army (3-6) took the lead 3 seconds into the second quarter on Tyhier Tyler's 3-yard touchdown run. Maretzki missed the extra-point kick but added a 26-yard field goal with 6 seconds left before halftime to put the Black Knights up 9-0.

The Trojans didn't get on the scoreboard until Brooks Buce kicked a 21-yard field goal for the only score of the third quarter. Troy took the lead with 8:04 left to play when Gunnar Watson capped an eight-play, 57-yard drive with a 3-yard touchdown pass to Tez Johnson. Buce's extra-point kick proved to be the difference. Watson completed 15 of 31 passes for 192 yards with an interception for the Trojans. Tyler carried 27 times for 100 of Army's 275 yards rushing on the day. - Troy/AP College Football

  With a list of accolades as long as anyone else in Troy history, Carlton Martial had options after the 2021 season, lots of them. There is no question that schools around the country would have been clamoring for an All-American linebacker to jump into the Transfer Portal and the pull of the NFL Draft was also there. So, why did he return? "A lot of people have asked me if it was for the records or for this or that, but it's not for any of that," Martial emphasized. "These past few years I kind of put it on my shoulders how it didn't end how we wanted it to. "We need a better voice as a leader on the team that can bring everyone together and be that voice to get everyone going when it's time to go. I feel like I dropped the ball on that the last few years. I want to grow as a person and a football player and be a better leader for these guys. I also see something special with his team, so I'm excited to be here and excited to be back." While Martial is taking responsibility for some of the disappointments for Troy football over the past few years, he goes into 2022 as part of one of the most veteran defenses in college football and a unit that returns other All-Sun Belt players like Javon Solomon, Richard Jibunor, TJ Harris, Will Choloh and a number of other veterans. The familiarity of this group will give the Trojan defense an unquestionable advantage in 2022. - Troy Messenger

  Troy head football coach Jon Sumrall said that his best recruiting job since arriving on campus was convincing sixth-year senior Carlton Martial to stay for his last year of eligibility. There is very little left for the Mobile native to prove since arriving on campus in 2017. The 5-foot-9-inch linebacker arrived as an all-state linebacker from McGill-Toolen without any FBS scholarship offers. Martial earned Freshman All-American honors as a redshirt freshman in 2018 and with that earned himself a scholarship, as well. Since that time he's been one of the most highly decorated - and most productive - players in all of college football. - Troy Messenger

  Ahead of this week's Sun Belt Conference Football Media Days, the conference released its official list of preseason awards with a number of Trojans making the list. In fact, Troy led all Sun Belt teams with five first-team selections, while Troy had a total of seven Trojans make the All-Sun Belt team. Leading the way once again is senior Carlton Martial who lands on the preseason first-team All-Sun Belt for the fourth straight year.

Joining Martial on the first-team of the All-Sun Belt list is senior offensive lineman Austin Stidham, sophomore receiver Tez Johnson, sophomore defensive lineman Javon Solomon and senior defensive lineman Will Choloh. Additionally, junior defensive lineman Richard Jibunor and senior defensive back TJ Harris each made second-team All-State. - Troy Messenger

  Carlton Martial spent the 2017 season, his first at Troy, as a walk-on. He redshirted that season. Former Troy football head coach Neal Brown said in 2018 that Martial does not have "prototypical size or speed" for a middle linebacker, "but all he does is make plays." Brown put Martial on scholarship just before the start of the 2018 season. "If you look back at that young man's history, he has achieved," former Troy defensive coordinator Vic Koenning said in 2018. In 2018, Martial recorded 76 total tackles (33 solo, 43 assisted) as a redshirt freshman. Martial also had three sacks and three forced fumbles. It earned him a spot on the 2018 Football Writers Association of America's Freshman All-America Team. Troy went 10-3 overall and 7-1 in the Sun Belt Conference in 2018. - Montgomery Advertiser
