Recap of Game One - Tennessee Wins 7 to 4

The Tennessee Volunteers Baseball program began SEC play in a major way on Friday night with a win over the No. 8-ranked Georgia Bulldogs. Here’s everything you need to know about game two.

The Tennessee Volunteers defeated the Georgia Bulldogs (7-4) in Athens, Georgia on Friday night. It looked like we were going to have quite a pitching duel as Tennessee starter Teeghan Kuhns and Georgia starter Joey Volchko looked to be poised to work deep into this contest.

Kuhns worked clean all the way until the bottom of the fifth when he allowed 4 runs and gave up the lead. However, runs in the top of the sixth, seventh, and eighth innings from the Volunteers' lineup were the ultimate difference maker in this contest.

Stone Lawless’s home run in the 8th inning felt like the final nail in the coffin for the Bulldogs on Friday night. Only followed quickly by Manny Marin’s solo shot that cleared the trees in the outfield of Foley Field.

A reminder that there are currently 10 other SEC Teams alongside the Vols ranked inside the Top-25 D1 Baseball rankings. Six of which, the Vols will exchange blows with in the weekend series throughout this 2026 schedule. They have their work cut out for them in 2026, this weekend being just the beginning.
