A Look at What's Ahead
The Bulldogs are back on the road for a three-game series this weekend at Alabama. The Bulldogs and Crimson Tide will open the series on Friday at 7 p.m. ET. Saturday's game will begin at 3 p.m. ET with Sunday's ESPN2 game beginning at noon ET. Georgia then returns home to open a five-game homestand next Wednesday when USC-Upstate comes to town.

Let's Recap
Georgia hosted No. 3 LSU over the weekend in a three-game series. Tied going to the seventh of game one, LSU plated two runs in the top of the inning. Georgia put the tying run on in the bottom of the inning, but LSU fended off the comeback to take the opener. The Tigers used a six-run fourth in game two to power past the Dogs in six innings, 10-2. The Bulldogs flipped the offensive script in the finale, using a seven-run third innings, highlighted by a Mua Williams grand slam, to run rule the third-ranked Tigers in five innings to salvage a game in the series.

Battle Tested in SEC Play
In Georgia's softball's 29-year history, the Bulldogs have never opened SEC play against three straight top-10 opponents until this season. The only time a Georgia team came close was in 2017 when UGA faced four top 25 opponents to start SEC play (No. 17, 12, 5, 3).

Packing The Jack
Georgia fans have already set a season attendance record at Jack Turner Stadium with 39,406 fans packing The Jack so far in 2025. The LSU series saw three top-10 crowds including breaking the attendance record in game three (2,478). The series drew 7, 098 fans, setting a new Jack Turner Stadium series attendance record.

Ellison Emerging as Offensive Leader
Junior Tyler Ellison has emerged as Georgia's hottest hitter in 2025. She currently leads the team with a .364 batting average, .665 slugging, and .507 on-base percentage. She's knocked five home runs and recorded 17 RBI. Ellison had just 34 at-bats in her first two seasons and has taken advantage of every opportunity this season, working into a starting role on the right side of the infield. She's provided a walk-off hit in three games in 2025 (CSUB, Ohio State, Tennessee).

Goodwin Paces the Offense
Junior Jaydyn Goodwin is having a career year so far. She leads the team with a .663 slugging, 26 runs, 35 hits, 30 RBI, six home runs, four triples, five doubles, and 65 total bases and is second on the team with a .357 batting average. Goodwin has registered the most multi-hit games (10) and multi-RBI games (9).

Starting Strong
42 of Georgia's 157 runs (24 percent) have come in the first inning. The Bulldogs have scored five or more runs in the first inning six times. UGA has pushed a run across in the first inning in 15 games, going 14-1 in those games. The Dogs are 13-1 when leading after the first inning.
