Following a disappointing weekend for Tech softball against Florida State University, the Jackets made a bold return Tuesday evening against their rival team, the University of Georgia, in Athens.
FSU swept Tech in a doubleheader on Friday and a third loss on Sunday. Going into the matchup, FSU ranked third nationally with a 22-1 record versus Tech’s 15-7 mark. Following their three consecutive wins at Shirley Clements Mewborn Field, the Seminoles now rank second in the nation.
Despite the grim outlook for the weekend, the Jackets gave their all, scoring a combined five runs against FSU’s 13.
