University of Montevallo Athletics

Wright "Archie" Ingram was not only one of the first Falcon baseball players for Alabama College Montevallo, he was one of the best. As outstanding athlete, Ingram set standards by which all others were measured. One of the most highly recruited athletes to come to UM, Ingram chose Montevallo over other schools to continue his baseball career.

As a pitcher for the Falcons, Ingram was overpowering. So much so that he recorded the lowest Earned Run Average of any pitcher before or after when he posted a phenomenal ERA of 0.98 in 1963.
