The Dexter High School honored their graduating athletes at the annual Fall Senior Night during the pre-game of the Bearcats vs Scott City Rams football game on Friday, October 25, 2024.  Each graduating athlete will be recognized in a separate article.

Ricardo Martinez is the son of Josefina Martinez and Beto Hilarion.

He is a four year member of the Dexter Marching Bearcats.

His future plans are to attend Southeast Missouri State University - Cape Girardeau to pursue a music education degree.

Ricardo's favorite band memories are the multiple overnight State trips where he wouldn't get any sleep before the auditions the next day.
