For many years, the Lake Martin Classic brought baseball teams from across the state right here to Alexander City and for several of those, the Benjamin Russell Wildcats made the hometown proud.

Back in 2007, the Wildcats borught home their third tournament championship and did so in style when Justin Ware smashed a home run to give Benjamin Russell the lead for good in a 9-6 victory over Boaz.
