Welcome to my Countdown to Kickoff opinion week column, the annual column I write to discuss the links I see between football and the non-revenue sports. Or at least allude to them.
As it stands, this is the state of Georgia Tech athletics, outside of the gridiron:
- Women’s Tennis: Sweet Sixteen, ACC Runner-Up
- Women’s Basketball: Sweet Sixteen
- Golf: NCAA Top 15 Finish
- Men’s Basketball: ACC Champions, NCAA Appearance
- Baseball: ACC Coastal Campions, NCAA Result TBD
- Men’s Swimming and Diving: Top 30 NCAA Finish
- Women’s Cross Country: Top 30 NCAA Finish
- Women’s Swimming and Diving: Top 30 NCAA Finish
- Volleyball: NCAA Round of 32
- Men’s Tennis: NCAA Appearance
- Men’s Cross Country, Men’s Track and Field, and Women’s Track and Field: Several Notable Individual Performances
- Softball: ACC Tourney Appearance
For those keeping score at home, this is pretty darn good.
