Ramos is good

After her 3-0 weekend against Appalachian State, senior pitcher Kaylee Ramos was named the Sun Belt softball co-pitcher of the week. Ramos was magnificent in Saturday’s doubleheader going 3 ⅔ innings over the two games striking out three Mountaineers and just one hit. On Sunday in her final game in Statesboro, Ramos started and went the distance, taking a no-hitter into the sixth. She ended with just four hits and her first career shutout.

Fisk’s big week

Despite falling in the Sun Belt Championship last week, junior golfer Steven Fisk qualified for the NCAA Kissimmee Regional. Fisk was one of 45 players on teams that didn’t make the NCAA Championship to be selected based on their individual performance throughout the season. This invite was icing on the cake for Fisk after being named a semifinalist for the Division I Jack Nicklaus National Player of the Year Award earlier in the week. In his third year with the Eagles, Fisk has shot a 72 or better in 25 of the 30 rounds he’s competed in and has won two tournaments. The Regional takes place in Kissimmee, Florida May 14-15.

New Zealand to Statesboro

Head women’s basketball coach Kip Drown announced the signing of Tsubasa Nisbet to play for the Eagles in the upcoming season.

The 6’0” forward averaged 12 points and 6.2 rebounds per game throughout the 2017 FIBA U17 Oceania Championship, helping lead New Zealand to the championship game.
