Family: Mason Martin showing signs of progress

Karns City quarterback Mason Martin has not yet regained consciousness since collapsing during a game on Sept. 1, but if the last couple of days are any indication, his father said, Mason could open his eyes “any day now.”

“He’s trying,” Denny Martin said on Thursday, Sept. 21. “You see his eyes trying to open, blinking and fluttering.”
