Brittany Gray’s season-ending biceps injury created a setback for Georgia softball as it lost its leader and one of the nation’s most-productive pitchers.
The Bulldogs haven’t been able to depend on her 0.62 ERA or the 16 wins she accumulated in 20 appearances since the last time she took the mound on April 4.
It also created opportunity for those behind her to carry on Georgia’s best season since a 43-win campaign in 2010. Mary Wilson Avant, a sophomore out of Stratford Academy, has led the efforts to fill Gray’s void by receiving a majority of the Bulldogs’ starting assignments.
