Martin's career is over

Greg Jones | The Journal Gazette

Notre Dame’s Scott Martin has elected to have knee surgery, ending his college basketball career.

“I had a good run, but I came up a month short at the end,” Martin told CBSSports.com. “I did everything I could. We tried everything on it.”

The senior forward, who has missed the last nine games, was granted a sixth-year by the NCAA prior to the season but decided to have surgery Wednesday.

The 6-foot-8 Martin was averaging 7.9 points and 5.9 rebounds per game this season and shooting 46 percent on three-pointers.
