Georgia Tech Volleyball swept the South Florida Bulls 3-0 (25-23, 25-13, 25-12) to begin the 2023-2024 Yellow Jacket sports year with a win. Playing in Amalie Arena in Tampa, FL (the site of the Final Four in December), Tech threw off a shaky start in the first set with dominant volleyball in the second and third sets, led by junior Bianca Bertolino and freshman Larissa Mendes with 16 and 11 kills respectively. Sophomore Liv Mogridge finished with seven blocks and eight kills in her Yellow Jacket debut.

Tech’s first point of the season came from Mendes’ first kill of her collegiate career to make it 1-1.
