FAST FACTS

Head Coach Tony Baldwin
On the team's bounce-back performance in game three against LSU...
"The thing that we talked about beforehand is, this is what you signed up for when you came to the SEC. Every weekend is Super Regional type of games. That's as good an LSU team as we've played in a minute, and I've been in the league for a while. That's a really good team. They're complete, athletic, pitching, the offense is really, really good, so we knew we were going to have our work cut out for us. I thought we battled really well on Friday night. Yesterday, we got off to a good start and got a little sideways at the end. We just talked about like, it's about coming out and representing all the women that have built Georgia Softball. And, that's been on competitiveness, it's not on outcomes or being perfect. It's just about when we show up, we're going to compete. I'm really proud of the way they did that today."
On Randi Roelling's pitching this weekend...
"She's a Bulldog now. She loves to compete, and sometimes she can let her foot off the gas a little bit, but, when she's in compete mode, she's as good as anybody."
On Mua Williams' grand slam and growth this season...
"She's awesome. She's just a great kid. She's humble. She's a hard worker. She spends more time in the indoor, working on her own, than anybody, and you can just keep seeing it. The thing we keep talking about is, sometimes the outcomes can mask the progress. When the outcomes aren't going your way, it makes you feel like you aren't really progressing, but she has been progressing. It's just fun to see her get to reap the benefits."
#8 Mua Williams | Fr. | UT
On her impact on the team as a true freshman...
"It has definitely been a lot of ups and downs. I mean, that's just how softball is. I think you just have to learn how to persevere through a lot of those things, and the team has helped me a lot with that because I know they got my back, the coaches especially."
UP NEXT
The Bulldogs will host Oklahoma State in a top-25 midweek game on Wednesday. First pitch is set for 7 p.m. on SEC Network. Fans are encouraged to wear red, and the first 250 fans will take home a red t-shirt. The first 100 students will receive free food courtesy of Texas Roadhouse, and kids in fifth grade and younger can run the bases after the game.
