Kate Martin exchanges jersey with Buffalo Bills star A.J. Epenesa
Las Vegas Aces rookie Kate Martin met with NFL defensive end A.J. Epenesa from the Buffalo Bills and exchanged jerseys after the Aces’ game against the Connecticut Sun on Friday.
The Aces’ account posted a picture of the two former Iowa Hawkeyes standouts holding each other’s jerseys on Instagram. The post carried the caption:
“Because Hawks support Hawks.”
The same post also featured a video of the two athletes meeting each other and then exchanging jerseys. Martin displayed her sense of humor in the video when she tried to make Epenesa laugh. She sniffed the NFL star’s jersey and faked throwing up only to burst into laughter alongside the Bills player.
Kate and Epenesa have a connection that goes way back to their days as fellow Edwardsville (Illinois) Tigers. Epenesa was a year ahead of the Aces’ rookie and graduated in 2017 while Kate graduated a year later in 2018.
Earlier this month, Epenesa shared his views on Martin with Blake Horn of WHBF. He said he always knew that Martin had the potential to become a professional athlete, and seeing her succeed was not a surprise for him.
