Vigue And Jackson Add National Honors Tuesday
March 10, 2026 | Baseball
ATHENS, Ga.----- University of Georgia junior pitcher Dylan Vigue and catcher Daniel Jackson added national weekly honors Tuesday a day after being recognized by the Southeastern Conference.
Both earned spots on Baseball America's College Team of the Week which highlights the top performances around the diamond. Also, Jackson was named the Buster Posey National Collegiate Catcher of the Week by the College Baseball Foundation (CBF). Established in 2000, by the Wichita Sports Commission, the Buster Posey National Collegiate Catcher of the Year Award is presented annually to the honor the nation's most outstanding catcher. Jackson is a nominee for the 2026 award.
Vigue, a 6-3, 230-pound right-hander from Leominster, Mass., provided Georgia's most dominating start of the season this past Saturday. He tossed a seven-inning complete game one-hit shutout in an 11-0 run-rule victory over Queens. He carried a no-hitter through 5.2 innings before allowing a double and then promptly struck out the next batter. He finished with a career-high 11 strikeouts and only one walk, facing just 23 batters (two over the minimum). Overall, Vigue is 3-1 with a team-best 1.93 ERA in four starts.
Jackson batted .478 (11-for-23) with 14 runs scored, a double, a triple, five home runs and 13 RBI in helping the Bulldogs go 5-1 last week. Also, he posted a 1.261 slugging percentage, drew six walks plus went 5-for-5 in stolen base attempts. He started all six games, including five at catcher, and recorded a perfect 1.000 fielding percentage in 54 total chances.
Jackson, a 6-2, 200-pound native of Sandy Springs, Ga., leads the nation with 14 home runs. He is batting .408 with a team-high 33 RBI and 10 stolen bases. His final swing this past Sunday resulted in a walk-off grand slam to run-rule Queens 14-3 and clinch a series sweep.
The Bulldogs (15-3), ranked as high as No. 6 nationally this week, return to action Friday night at Foley Field. Georgia opens Southeastern Conference play with No. 19 Tennessee (12-4). First pitch Friday will be at 6 p.m. and be available on SECN+ and the Georgia Bulldog Sports Network. Game two of the series will be Saturday at 5 p.m. (SECN) while the series concludes Sunday with a 1 p.m. start (SECN+).
