Storylines
- Tech began conference play last week with its first sweep of Notre Dame in program history. The Saturday 4-3 walk off win secured Tech’s first conference series win against Notre Dame since the 2017 season. Of the six ACC schools that began conference play last week, Tech was the only school that finished the week undefeated in conference play.
- The sweep featured a combined 20 runs from the Yellow Jackets, two wins from Madalyn Johnson and Kenley Hilleary’s first win pitching for Tech.
- In that series, Reese Hunter and Gracyn Tucker helped lead the team offensively with four runs and five hits respectively.
- Hunter slammed two home runs against the Fighting Irish and finished the series with a team high seven RBI and 12 total bases.
- Saturday was Tech’s first walk of win of the season after Holly Medina’s final hit was enough to advance Raegan Wall home for the 4-3 win to take the series.
- Tech enters the weekend series against Clemson coming off a 6-2 midweek loss to Troy. Tuesday’s loss was Tech’s first home loss of the season to an unranked team.
- Tucker’s one hit on Tuesday kept her 11-game hitting streak alive, which is the longest hitting streak of any Yellow Jackets so far this season.
- Medina’s one hit against Troy extended her safely reached streak to 14 games, setting a new longest reached streak for this season as she surpassed Willer’s 13-game safely reached streak set earlier this season.
- Entering the second week of conference play, Tech sits sixth nationally, first in the ACC for hits (214).
- As a team, the Yellow Jackets are third in the ACC in batting average, holding a .358 batting average going into the series with the Tigers, who sit 10th in the conference with a .300 batting average.

- Her numbers are good enough for a 16th place ACC ranking for batting and 41st nationally for hits.
