THE FLATS – Georgia Tech softball (30-20, 11-10 ACC) begins its final series of the regular season this weekend against Virginia (30-16, 13-8 ACC). The Yellow Jackets will celebrate nine seniors this weekend (Sara Beth Allen, Mallorie Black, Chandler Dennis, Madison Dobbins, Tiffany Domingue, Abby Hughes, Blake Neleman, Jin Sileo and Sandra Beth Pritchett).
The White & Gold have secured the 19th 30-win season in program history and third of the Morales era. Should the Jackets sweep the series against UVA, they would tie the program record for the most home wins in a single season (24) set in 2022.
The Yellow Jackets have secured their spot in the 2024 ACC Tournament in Durham, N.C. next month. Tech is currently No. 6 in the conference with an 11-10 record with an opportunity to finish as high as No. 4 or as low as No. 8 depending on the outcome of this series.
