During high school Myles Martin was an immovable object on the wrestling mats, he racked up quite an impressive record over the years while attending McDonogh School in Maryland. He became a three time prep champion and won other high profile tournaments like Beast of the East. Myles graduated high school with a stellar record of 171 wins with only 15 losses. Losing only 2 matches in his last two seasons, Myles was named 2015’s All Metro Wrestler of the year by the Baltimore Sun.

Myles Martin was the number 1 recruit in his weight class and he committed to Ohio State University as his choice of college.

Myles competed at the Big Ten Conference Championship, where he finished in third place beating Nate Jackson before losing to the top seed and Penn State powerhouse Bo Nickal. 

Myles Martin was able to make history at his first ever NCAA championship, by winning the division 1 title against the top seed Bo Nickal in a frenetic match that ended (11 - 9). Myles Martin became the first Buckeye to ever win the title and the first person since 1979 to come from 11th seed to do so.

Over the course of the next two years Myles Martin would win the 2017 US University Nationals and the 2018 US Under 23 Nationals &World Team Trials in infatic fashion, winning 6 out of 6 and 7 out of 7 matches respectively.

Myles father was an inspirational figure who adored his children, and he guided them to be the best they can be. Myles joined wrestling at the age of 6 because he was too small to play football, and before long it became his passion which in turn became his fathers passion, watching his son succeed. 

As Myles started to succeed in wrestling he grew an unbreakable bond with his father and his step mother who became his biggest fans.

Myles was supremely dominant in his first 5 matches taking on fellow Americans;Jackson Hemauer, Tyler Rosenbaum, Brandon Krone, Cash Wilcke and Maxwell Dean, winning every match (10 - 0) securing 5 Tech Falls. In the final Myles took on the 6 time All American Chandler Rogers in a much anticipated final.
