A Cincinnati, Ohio native, Martella was named an NSCAA First-Team All-American following his senior year, and was selected to participate in the 1992 ISAA Senior Bowl. He totaled 45 goals and 115 points for his career.
Martella was the first player in school history to earn NSCAA All-Region status in all four years, and remains the only player in BGSU soccer history to lead the team in scoring in four consecutive seasons.
He was named the team's top rookie in his initial season of 1989, earned co-MVP honors in 1990 and was the team MVP in 1992. A four-time All-MASC (Mid-American Soccer Conference) and All-Ohio First Team pick, he remained with the Falcons as a volunteer student assistant coach in 1993, before graduating in 1994 with a bachelor's degree in sport management.
Martella returned to BGSU as the assistant men's soccer coach in 1998, and spent three seasons under head coach Mel Mahler.
