History was made Sunday for Georgia Military College softball (35-22) as the Bulldogs jumped on South Georgia College early and never looked back en route to the Georgia Collegiate Athletic Association (GCAA) championship title.

They won running away, 8-3 to advance to the NJCAA Division I Softball National Championship. 

Four first-inning runs helped the Bulldogs jump out with the early lead against South Georgia State College at Strong Rock in Locust Grove in Sunday’s play.

Jordan Crews racked up three RBIs on three hits for the Bulldogs with a double in the third inning and a single in the first and fifth innings.  Jade Moncrief and Jordan Crews provided the firepower as well as they both pounded out home runs in the Bulldog win. 

A three-run fourth inning helped bring South Georgia State College within four with a wild pitch and a two-run single by Chancey starting off the South Georgia State College rally, but Madason Messer got Latner to fly out to end the inning. 

Messer turned in another solid pitching performance against a very well coached team as she only gave up three earned runs in the seven innings pitched. 

Entering the tournament the Bulldogs had the highest team batting average in conference play at .393 and was second in team pitching era in conference play at 2.12. The Bulldogs have had many records broken this year for season and career records. The hitting barrage has been led by Kiley Rediger, with a .394 batting average and 56 RBIs to lead the team. Not far behind is Jordan Crews and Tayler Little, with a .370 BA, 44 RBIs and .356 BA, 13 home runs and 33 RBIs, respectively. 

The Bulldogs will have some time now to prepare and get ready for the national tournament that will be held on May 18-21in St. George, Utah.
