College baseball is alive and well in late April – so let’s take a look around the Peach State to see how the teams are doing…

Georgia Tech

  • Record: 24-16 (9-12)
  • RPI: 26
  • T-3rd in Coastal Division

The Yellow Jackets have hit a bit of a losing streak getting swept at Boston College last weekend. They came back home on Tuesday and lost to Kennesaw State 11-6. They host Clemson this weekend.

Georgia

  • Record: 21-20 (6-11)
  • RPI: 95
  • 6th in Eastern Division

The Bulldogs are hanging on to 12th place overall (final tourney seed) in the SEC by 1/2 game. One of the games this past weekend with LSU was cancelled, and that may have been a good thing since they were getting pounded. With a mid-week win over Clemson, the Dawgs swept the season home-and-home with the Tigers. Up next is a trip to Auburn.

Georgia State

  • Record: 26-15 (13-3)
  • RPI: 128
  • 1st in Sun Belt

The Panthers are having a great season so far in the Sun Belt. If they can keep things up they’ll find themselves in a Regional. GSU is currently in the midst of a seven game winning streak which they’ll take to Mobile to play the South Alabama Jaguars.

Georgia Southern

  • Record: 24-17 (14-7)
  • RPI: 96
  • 2nd in Sun Belt

Southern is always a baseball powerhouse, and this year is no different. It’s a GA battle for the top spot in the Sun Belt this year. After a road sweep of Arkansas-Little Rock last year the Eagles will host ULM this weekend.

Kennesaw State

  • Record: 22-19 (6-5)
  • RPI: 103
  • 5th in Atlantic Sun

KSU surprised everyone last year by making a Super Regional. This year the record isn’t great but the RPI is really good considering their conference. The Owls have a shot at winning the conference and making a Regional again. On deck this week is a trip to Lipscomb.
