Annie Martin '19 was hired as an Associate Director of Athletics in October 2024 and heads into her second year at her alma mater with the 2025-26 school year. Martin is responsible for managing personnel, operational budgets, athletic events, and various student-athlete initiatives while also overseeing summer camps and representing the College on the Northeast 10 Conference Sport Administration Council.

A native of Mattapoisett, Mass., Martin spent the prior four years as an athletics administrator in Colorado, including the final two school years at the University of Colorado Boulder. She was hired in October 2022 as a Development Assistant - Stewardship, Events & Engagement for the Buff Club, the fundraising arm of Colorado Athletics. In January 2024, she was promoted to Senior Advancement Assistant - Stewardship, Events & Engagement for the Buff Club. In that role, Martin led five major initiatives and all Annual Fund donor base events, helped manage operations, and prepared major gift proposals.
 
Between January 2021 and August 2022, Martin was an Athletic Facilities Graduate Assistant at NCAA Division II Regis University in Denver, where she completed a master's degree in organizational leadership in October 2022. During the 2019-20 school year, Martin was an NE10 Administrative Intern, assisting in the operation of league championships and managing the 28-member NE10 Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC). She also previously gained leadership experience as a women's lacrosse assistant coach at the University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth.
 
Martin was also heavily involved with a pair of local organizations beginning in her senior year of college. From December 2018 to July 2022, she was Director of Community Relations for Hope Happens Here, a student-athlete-run organization founded at Saint Michael's that aims to break the negative stigma associated with mental health issues. Martin helped Hope Happens Here grow its base to 18 college and nine high school chapters. Between July 2018 and February 2022, she was Special Events & Sponsorship Coordinator for the Burlington-based Flyin Ryan Hawks Foundation.
 
Martin graduated from Saint Michael's in 2019 with a degree in economics after minoring in mathematics and psychology. As a women's lacrosse captain, Martin still holds the program record for season draw controls (63) while sitting second in career caused turnovers (93) and draw controls (143). Martin, who earned the Department of Athletics' 2019 Victor V. LeMieux '35 Award for loyalty and leadership, served as co-chair of the College's chapter of Hope Happens Here, on the NE10 SAAC, and with the Special Olympics Board, Founders Society and Student Support Network. Martin's sisters Claire '14 and Kate '19 were also Saint Michael's women's lacrosse captains.
