A combination of a strong pitching performance and a consistent big bat presence propelled Georgia over UMass 16-2.
Cole Wilcox (3-0, 2.00 ERA) got the start on Saturday at Foley Field and continued to pitch well.
Wilcox ran into some trouble in the second as the Minutemen struck first on Jordan Erbe’s single to drive in the first run. After a mound visit, the Minutemen had runners on the corners, but Wilcox held strong as he struck out the side. He mowed down Steve Luttazi swinging and got Christian Pearsons looking.
Georgia fired right back in the bottom half of the inning as Connor Tate led off with a single, and his twin brother Cole homered to left the next at-bat.
