Three Dawgs rank inside the top 10 in the season in doubles plays fielded. More, 10 Georgia players with a minimum of 25 chances have committed five or less errors this season.
Further, Georgia's team fielding percentage entering the weekend is on pace for the second-best season total in program history. The Bulldogs have already set a single-season program record for double-plays turned (30).
A Look at the Offense
Georgia's .355 team batting average is well on pace for best in school history (with the previous record for the team being .343). More, the Bulldogs' 391 runs already ranks inside the top 10 in single-season program history.
The Bulldog batters are two doubles away from tying the single season record, as well as on-pace for a top 10 RBI total in single-season program history.
Impressively, six Georgia players who have made 30 or more starts currently are batting .350 or better at this stage of the season.
Transfers in the Mix
Several members of Georgia's 2025 transfer class are starring for the Bulldogs this season.
In the circle, RHP Addisen Fisher sits at 10-5 with a team-best 2.84 ERA. She has one shut-out on the season, as well as two saves. Through 81.1 innings pitched, she's surrendered just 33 earned runs with 57 strikeouts.
In the order, Keirstin Roose has impressed in the lead-off role for the Bulldogs. She has a team-best 14 home runs on the season while also driving in 35 runs. Delani Sullivan, while being a threat at the plate, has been a consistent presence in outfield recording 42 put-outs this season with a perfect fielding percentage. Bailey Lindemuth has flashed her glove at the hot corner this season with just four errors through 56 games and a team-best 103 assists. Natalie Ray is batting .383 overall.
Roelling is Rolling
LHP Randi Roelling is on pace for her best season as a Bulldog through 33 appearances - her season total last year. She currently has allowed 61 earned runs. In 2025, she had allowed 78 earned runs - a 22% decrease at this stage.
More, her 133 strikeouts this season surpasses her 105-strikeout mark last season - a 21% increase. Further, she has dropped her walks from 100 last season to just 53 this year - a 47% decrease.
Freshman at First
Gabi Novickas has made 52 appearances this season including 41 starts at first base. In those appearances, she's batted at a .385 clip - fourth-best on the team - while recording 42 hits, 25 runs, 26 RBIs, seven doubles and seven home runs - including a grand slam against USC Upstate and a game-sealing, run-rule, walk-off grand slam against to clinch the series over No. 8 Florida. More, she's recorded a team-best 270 put-outs this year with just one error.
Lindemuth Looking Up

Heading into the last week of conference play, in a release from 643 Charts, Lindemuth ranked first nationally amongst third basemen in defensive runs saved. Her 15.1 DRS (defensive runs saved) score measures defensive value by estimating how many runs they have saved or cost their team compared to the league average defender.
A Ray of Light
Senior Natalie Ray has impressed since making the jump to the SEC from Georgia State. Her offensive output has allowed her to feature in multiple spots in the lineup from batting at the clean-up to rounding out the bottom of the order.
More from Miller
The senior catcher's bat came alive in conference play. Batting .271 through the first 23 games of the season, Miller is now batting .291. Strictly in SEC play, Miller is batted .309 with 17 hits, six runs, three doubles, one home run and eight RBIs.
She continues to be a threat behind the plate, as well. This campaign, Miller has thrown out 50% of runners attempts to steal, catching 10 runners - good for second in the conference and just outside of the top 50 nationally.
That's Good[win]
The senior flourished in the latter portion of the 2026 season as one of the squad's brightest. She leads the team in batting average the last five games (.500), last 10 games (.559), in conference play (.378) and overall at .413.

That's Sarah Gordon!
Sarah Gordon has enjoyed a strong senior season for the Bulldogs this year, leading the squad in doubles (16). The figure put her in touching distance of ranking in the top 10 in program history for single season doubles.
New Year, New Team
This year's squad has reached several milestones to surpass last year's regular season performance.
Currently batting .355 as a squad, that figure tops last year's regular season batting average total of .300. More, during the 2025 campaign, the team finished the regular season with 55 doubles, 12 triples and 45 home runs. This year's squad has surpassed all three figures.
In the circle, the staff managed eight shutouts, which this year's staff has already touched, as well as already surpassing last year's four saves.
Collectively, the Bulldogs' 36 wins in the regular season eclipsed last year's 35 total wins.
SEC Tournament
In the opening round of the SEC Tournament, Georgia held off 8-seed LSU 7-3.

The Bulldog batters are two doubles away from tying the single season record, as well as on-pace for a top 10 RBI total in single-season program history.
Impressively, six Georgia players who have made 30 or more starts currently are batting .350 or better at this stage of the season.
Transfers in the Mix
Several members of Georgia's 2025 transfer class are starring for the Bulldogs this season.
In the circle, RHP Addisen Fisher sits at 10-5 with a team-best 2.84 ERA. She has one shut-out on the season, as well as two saves. Through 81.1 innings pitched, she's surrendered just 33 earned runs with 57 strikeouts.
In the order, Keirstin Roose has impressed in the lead-off role for the Bulldogs. She has a team-best 14 home runs on the season while also driving in 35 runs. Delani Sullivan, while being a threat at the plate, has been a consistent presence in outfield recording 42 put-outs this season with a perfect fielding percentage. Bailey Lindemuth has flashed her glove at the hot corner this season with just four errors through 56 games and a team-best 103 assists. Natalie Ray is batting .383 overall.
Roelling is Rolling
LHP Randi Roelling is on pace for her best season as a Bulldog through 33 appearances - her season total last year. She currently has allowed 61 earned runs. In 2025, she had allowed 78 earned runs - a 22% decrease at this stage.

Freshman at First

Heading into the last week of conference play, in a release from 643 Charts, Lindemuth ranked first nationally amongst third basemen in defensive runs saved. Her 15.1 DRS (defensive runs saved) score measures defensive value by estimating how many runs they have saved or cost their team compared to the league average defender.
A Ray of Light
Senior Natalie Ray has impressed since making the jump to the SEC from Georgia State. Her offensive output has allowed her to feature in multiple spots in the lineup from batting at the clean-up to rounding out the bottom of the order.
More from Miller
The senior catcher's bat came alive in conference play. Batting .271 through the first 23 games of the season, Miller is now batting .291. Strictly in SEC play, Miller is batted .309 with 17 hits, six runs, three doubles, one home run and eight RBIs.
She continues to be a threat behind the plate, as well. This campaign, Miller has thrown out 50% of runners attempts to steal, catching 10 runners - good for second in the conference and just outside of the top 50 nationally.
That's Good[win]
The senior flourished in the latter portion of the 2026 season as one of the squad's brightest. She leads the team in batting average the last five games (.500), last 10 games (.559), in conference play (.378) and overall at .413.
