THE FLATS – Despite a sixth inning comeback effort, Georgia Tech softball (26-18, 10-8 ACC) dropped its final midweek contest of the 2025 season, 5-2, against the No. 24 Georgia Bulldogs (29-17, 6-14 SEC).
QUICK HITS
- Sophia Voyles started her 20th game of the season in the circle and threw three strikeouts across 4.1 innings pitched.
- Her three strikeouts on Tuesday bring Voyles to 250 career strikeouts across 260.1 total innings pitched.
- Kinsey Norton made her 25th appearance of the season in relief of Voyles in the fifth inning.
- Jayden Gailey recorded two hits in Tuesday’s game, bringing her to nine multi-hit games this season. Her nine multi-hit games are the second most by a Yellow Jacket this season, behind Eliana Gottlieb and Paige Vukadinovich who both have 10.
- Addison Leschber’s single in the sixth inning extended her reached base streak to eight games, which stands as the longest active reached base streak. Leschber’s eight-game streak is two games shy of tying her previous reached base streak of 10-games.
- Tech’s Tuesday night game against No. 24 Georgia saw the highest attendance for a single game this season.
- The last time Tech sold out Mewborn Field for a single contest was March 13, 2022 against Florida State.
How it Happened
- Voyles began in the circle for Tech and held the No. 24 Bulldogs scoreless through three complete innings. She recorded two strikeouts before a triple in the fourth inning put two runs on the board for Georgia.
- Despite the senior recording her third out of the game and the Yellow Jackets’ defense getting their first double play of the game to close the fourth inning, Tech trailed 4-0.
- Norton relieved Voyles in the fifth inning after the starting senior faced one batter. A Tech error in the fifth inning forced the Jackets to trail by five runs.
- Norton recorded her one strikeout of the game in the top of the sixth inning before Tech was able to score two runs in the bottom half of the inning. With two Jackets on base, Leschber sent a single to center field which advanced Vukadinovich home for Tech’s first run of the game. A single from Gailey posted Tech’s second run as the ball hit to the pitches gave Alyssa Willer enough time to safely reach home.
- Tech recorded its second double play of the game in the top of the seventh to bring utility player Emma Minghini up to pinch hit to start the bottom half of the inning. Minghini hit a single to second base off an 0-0 count but the Jacket was left on first as the game came to a close.
