#LEADOFF
>> Georgia Tech kicks off a seven-game homestand this weekend at Russ Chandler Stadium by hosting UNC Greensboro for a three-game series.

>> The Yellow Jackets and Spartans have played just twice previously, those were back-to-back games in the 2000 season with the teams splitting the series.

>> Sophomore Matt Gonzalez is leading the Jackets offensively with a .385 average (5-for-13) and is tied for the ACC lead with four doubles.

>> The Jackets return 20 players and welcome 14 freshmen for the 2014 season. Tech’s incoming class was ranked as high as No. 9 nationally by Perfect Game.

>> Tech has opened the season with four consecutive games decided by two runs or less — it’s the first since 1947 that the Jackets have played that many close calls to open a season.

>> All three games of the UNCG series can be heard live on WREK 91.1 FM in Atlanta and seen online at RamblinWreck.com.
