Three Miami players were named to the CCHA all tournament team. Martinez was one of two defensemen selected after scoring two late game goals at the Joe.
Jeff Zatkoff, who started all four tournament games for Miami and stopped 112 of the 118 shots he faced, was the selection at goalie.
Although he only registered just one assist in the two games at Detroit, Jones was selected as one of three forwards for his gritty play and leadership during the weekend.
Miami now gears up for its fourth NCAA tournament appearance in a row. Coming off a strong showing in the CCHA tournament, the RedHawks were given the No. 1 seed in the Northeastern region, and will face No. 4 seeded Air Force Academy 4 p.m. Saturday.
The game will take place in Worcester, Mass., which will also be the site of Miami's second game should the team defeat the Falcons.
Also in the Northeast region are Boston College and the University of Minnesota.
Boston College, who has eliminated Miami from the past two national tournaments and is the region's No. 2 seed, sits a mere 40 miles from Worcester.
