Georgia softball made a dominant 10-1 victory over Kennesaw State with nine runs in the first two innings. The Bulldogs were coming off a game where they scored only four runs and had five hits, but they nearly doubled those totals with 11 hits and 10 runs in this game. The team’s offense was led by Madison Kearney, who hit a two-run home run in the first inning. Sydney Chambley and Sara Mosley also contributed to the team’s success with their own home runs.
Despite an error by a fielder that allowed Kennesaw State to score in the first inning, the Bulldogs pitching staff performed well. Starter Shelby Walters earned the win after pitching for two innings, allowing three hits and striking out two batters. The team used four pitchers in total, who only allowed four hits and three walks while striking out five batters.
The Bulldogs showcased their deep roster with 15 players seeing playing time, compared to only eight players for Kennesaw State. After a successful away stretch, Georgia will return home to face No. 20 Arkansas in their upcoming SEC series on Saturday, March 30th at noon.
