Georgia Athletics Twitter @UGAAthletics GEORGIADOGS.COM 1 @UGASOFTBALL WINNINGTRADITION In its 20 seasons of existence, the Georgia Bulldogs have made noise across the softball landscape. From three Women’s College World Series appearances to three Southeastern Conference titles, Georgia has established itself a winning tradition. Since the opening season in 1997, Georgia has accumulated 892 wins, including 310 in SEC action. A majority of those wins have come under the helm of Lu Harris-Champer, Nicole Barber 777 to be exact in her 16 years in the Classic City. The Bulldogs have had 15-straight seasons with 40 or more wins, including seven of those with 50 or more victories. 2003 SEC CHAMPIONS The winning doesn’t stop when the regular season ends, but carries on in postseason action. The team chemistry of the 2016 squad carried the Bulldogs to Oklahoma City. In 2014, the Bulldogs brought home the SEC Tournament crown after defeating Kentucky in the Championship Game. The past 15 years have also seen Georgia in a NCAA Regional while appearing in nine Super Regionals, collecting 61 wins in the program’s NCAA Championship history. Kim Wendland With the 2017 season here, there may be a new squad in Athens, but the goals 2005 SEC CHAMPIONS remain the same, and Georgia won’t be quieting down any time soon. 892 310 15 Program SEC Program Straight 40+ Chelsea Wilkinson Wins Wins Win Seasons 2014 SEC TOURNAMENT CHAMPIONS GEORGIADOGS.COM 2 @UGASOFTBALL POSTSEASONSTAPLE Georgia’s winning tradition doesn’t just stem from what the Bulldogs accomplish in regular-season games, but from what it has achieved when those are over. The Bulldogs have made themselves a mainstay in NCAA Championship action, making it to a NCAA Regional in each of the past 15 seasons. Its stellar track record into the postseason slate puts Georgia as one of 11 teams in the nation to appear in a Regional for 15 or more straight years. Within that realm, Georgia is one of three Southeastern Conference teams to produce such success. Georgia isn’t just a staple in Regional fields, but also into the next round, appearing 2009 WOMEN’S COLLEGE in nine Super Regionals since 2005. The Bulldogs have made it to Super Regionals WORLD SERIES the last three seasons, just one of 12 teams to do so. The pinnacle of college softball is in Oklahoma City, and Georgia made back-to-back showings at the Women’s College World Series in 2009 and 2010, finishing as one of the last four teams standing in both. The Bulldogs returned in 2016 after knocking off back-to-back National Champion Florida in dramatic walk-off fashion. The consistency that the Bulldogs have showed reaching postseason play has planted the program as one of the top teams in NCAA softball. 2010 WOMEN’S COLLEGE WORLD SERIES 15 3 61 Consecutive Women’s NCAA NCAA College Postseason Regionals World Series Victories 2016 WOMEN’S COLLEGE WORLD SERIES GEORGIADOGS.COM 3 @UGASOFTBALL PRODAWGS BULLDOGS IN THE PROS Former Bulldogs have made their presence known in the professional world, helping to Erin Arevalo Akron Racers 2012 grow the game across the nation.

    Braking News The Official Newsletter of the Stratford Brakettes/Junior Brakettes/18U Select Brakettes Volumne 3,Issue 2 Editor: Bob Baird (203) 218-1066 December 2020 FAU SLUGGER ANSWERED THE ‘CALL’ FOR THE STRATFORD BRAKETTES Stephanie Call never got the opportunity to represent the United States on the softball diamond. She played her Brakettes career just three years into a 12-year hiatus from softball’s next scheduled appearance in the 2020 Olympics. Well, she finally got her chance to play for Team USA last summer as a member of the USA Softball Women’s Slow Pitch Futures team. It’s doubtful she would have received a look if there had been Olympic Games in 2012 or 2016 since the selection process is heavily slanted toward college standouts in the Power Five Conferences. It’s similar to the College Football Playoff where the SEC, Big Ten, and ACC are the chief powerbrokers. Nevertheless, Stephanie Call played on some of the finest teams in Brakettes softball history from 2011-2014. She played three years and eight games, a total of 202 games. During that time the Brakettes compiled a 200-8 overall record and posted two unbeaten seasons (2011 and 2013). Coming to Stratford from Florida Atlantic University, where she played for Hall of Famer Joan Joyce, the 6-foot-2 Call arrived highly touted and she didn’t disappoint. The Fort Lake, FL, native set the individual season home run record with 31 in her first year and followed with marks of 21 and 22. Coming back for a long weekend in 2014, Call played in eight wins and hit five solo homers in 16 at bats, finishing her career with 79 home runs, good for the No.
