ABOUT THE HOYAS

• Georgetown enters the week with a 6-9 record after going 2-1 in the DMV Classic this past weekend and 3-1 over the course of the week. GU secured wins over Towson and Longwood on Saturday and Sunday after narrowly dropping an extra inning contest against George Mason on Friday. 
• Andrew Williams was sensational for the Blue & Gray on Sunday. Fresh off earning BIG EAST Pitcher of the Week, Williams tossed a seven inning complete game on Sunday against Longwood. The senior left handed pitcher was electric, punching out eight Lancer batters while allowing only two hits and no runs. 
• Kavi Caster was superb in a 3-1 week for Georgetown, slashing .438/.412/.875 on the week. Caster tallied seven hits, four doubles and one home run to go with nine RBIs on the week. 
• Dylan Larkins leads the squad at the plate slashing .366/.509/.439. The Detroit native has 14 runs scored, eight RBIs, 12 walks and nine stolen bags on the season. 
• Georgetown ranks third nationally in stolen bases with 51 on the season. GU trails only Wofford (52) and VMI (103). 
• Head Coach Edwin Thompson enters his fifth season on the Hilltop after guiding the Hoyas to its most successful season in program history in 2024, posting a 36-21 record. 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.
