Performance of the Week: Ishpeming Westwood's Ethan Marta
December 18, 2025
Ethan Marta ♦ Ishpeming Westwood
Senior ♦ Basketball
The 6-foot-3 guard averaged 27 points per game as a junior in leading Ishpeming Westwood to the Division 3 Semifinals, and he scored 18 points with 13 rebounds and four assists as the Patriots came back last week from 17 points down to defeat Kingsford 59-54. The Flivvers also had reached Breslin last season, in Division 2.
Westwood sits 6-0 heading into Friday’s game against Negaunee, and finished 22-6 last winter – when the Patriots lost their early-season matchup with Kingsford, 57-50. Westwood’s trip to the Semifinals in March was its first since 2003. Marta also played football and will play baseball this spring, and has signed to play college basketball at Michigan Tech.
