Clemson softball recorded another program first in its inaugural season on Wednesday night with the first win over a ranked team. The Tigers hung four runs in the fourth inning and defeated No. 14 Georgia 4-1 in front of a fired-up crowd at Clemson Softball Stadium.
After it managed just one hit in the first three innings off Bulldog pitcher Mary Wilson Avant the Tigers racked up six straight base hits to turn a 1-0 deficit into a 4-1 advantage it maintained the rest of the game.
Valerie Cagle (6-6) earned the win in the circle with a complete game as she allowed just one run on three hits and an error with the only run scoring on a passed ball.
