One week after moving to Wyandotte, Michigan with her parents in 1949 she won her Cadet archery title, breaking all records as a junior until 1953. In 1954, she began competing in the Adult division at the age of fifteen; she competed in the National Field Tournament and won, establishing three new records. Marston won a total of 11 national archery titles and established all-time records; she was also an accomplished singer and horsewoman.
