ABOUT THE HOYAS

• Georgetown enters the contest with a 3-5 record on the season after dropping a midweek contest at George Washington on Tuesday in an 8-7 decision. Kavi Caster was 2-for-4 in the game with a double, three RBIs, a stolen base and two runs scored. 
• Jeremy Sheffield was named to the BIG EAST Weekly Honor Roll on Monday after a stellar week for the Blue & Gray. Sheffield slashed .438/.526/.563 in four games. The third basemen tallied seven hits, seven RBIs, four runs scored, a triple, two walks and two stolen bases. Sheffield was perfect in the field posting a 1.000 fielding percentage on the week.

• GU recorded its highest RPI ranking in program history a season ago finishing 59th nationally.
• Georgetown returns 22 players from a 2024 squad that reached the BIG EAST Championship after winning a program-record 36 games. The 2024 campaign also marked the first time the Blue & Gray has had three-consecutive 30-win seasons in program history.

Thompson has guided the Blue & Gray to three-consecutive 30-win seasons for the first time in program history. 2024 also marked the first time in the Thompson era that Georgetown has had a player selected in the MLB Draft in back-to-back seasons, as Everett Catlett was taken by the Colorado Rockies in the 12th round of the 2024 MLB Draft and Jake Bloss was taken in the third round by the Houston Astros in 2023.
