The squad list for this weekend for the Eagles will be: Bella Gamez, Kinsley Hannon, Ashley Judson, Brianne Staton and Amy Visconti.
Georgia Southern captured the 2020 Georgia Collegiate Championship last year, pulling out a heart-stopping one-point win over No. 20 North Georgia, as well as victory over Georgia Military College. Trailing by four to UNG at the break, the Eagles came out hot in air rifle and used a total team effort, capped by a nine on the final shot by Judson to seal their first win ever over a top-20 team.
