Georgia Bulldogs Off And Running

ATHENS-Colby May went 2-for-3 with a home run and scored five runs to help lead Georgia to a 13-6 win over Wofford Wednesday at Foley Field.

With the win the Bulldogs improved to 9-0, tying the best start in school history. The 1911 team also won its first nine games.

“I just wanted to get through this game and get to 9-0,” said head coach David Perno. “We’re really off to a good start. We know things aren’t going to stay easy for us, but we just have to keep doing the things that we’re doing well.”

The Bulldogs, ranked No. 2 by Collegiate Baseball, scored in six out of eight innings and have now scored in 48 of 75 innings this season.

“Offensively you just can’t say enough about our guys,” Perno said. “We’re playing a lot of guys and they are all coming up big for us. The depth we have really allows us to stay fresh and sharp.”

Jason Leaver (2-0) tossed 4.0 scoreless innings and struck out six batters to earn the win.

Georgia plays host to Quinnipiac in the final non-conference weekend series of the regular season beginning Friday.
