A South Lafourche High School graduate had maybe the best weekend of his young college baseball career to help his team.
Alcorn State infielder Ben Martin had a huge weekend for his team, posting a 6-for-10 weekend at the plate with an RBI and 3 extra-base hits.
Martin was peppering the ball all over the yard, finding the barrel with virtually every swing. He also drew 3 walks on the weekend.
Martin lifted his batting average for the season to .262 with the huge weekend. With the good plate discipline, Martin also has a .388 on-base percentage.
The former Tarpon has played well in his second season with Alcorn, showing his ability to hit and also be a steady glove at 2nd base for his team. Martin made several tough plays defensively on top of his big weekend at the plate.
Check out some of his big swings below.
