Eagles sweep a pair from Chipola JC in first outing of the Fall
STATESBORO, Ga. - Head Coach Kim Dean and the Georgia Southern softball program opened up the 2017 Fall season on Saturday, sweeping a pair of games from Chipola (Fla.) Junior College. The doubleheader was the first on-field action for the Eagles since Dean took over the softball program in June.
Georgia Southern and Chipola JC played two full seven-inning contests with all players from both teams getting a chance to get game action. Coach Dean was pleased with what she saw from the Eagles their first time out.
"I was happy to see everyone on the team get the chance to get some quality innings in," Coach Dean said. "It was key to have us work on certain focuses that we have been stressing to our players throughout the Fall. I think overall, we played well, but we did have some areas that we can continue to improve. I'm looking forward to this week's practices and getting everyone back out on the field this weekend."
The Eagles will continue their Fall schedule on Saturday, hosting the College of Coastal Georgia at Eagle Field.
