PAUL MARTIN of ELK RIVER is metro player of the year. All-Metro photo shoot … six players will be coming at staggered times, 4:30 p.m., 4:50 and 5:20 … what we want to do is shoot action shots of each doing something pertaining to their position — forwards shooting, defensemen diving to block shots, and the goalie blocking a shot … what we will hopefully get out of these is a spectacular back page of action shots, with short bios on each kid next to the photo and the Metro Player of the Year — Elk River’s Paul Martin — featured most prominently — Defenseman Paul Martin of Elk River is metro player of the year. His fourth year on varsity, he creates scoring chances, and is deceptively fast. He had 14 goals, 33 assists this season.
