It’s been over a semester of waiting for Georgia College, but they will finally get their chance to compete in an Intercollegiate Speedball League match tomorrow at home against Georgia Tech. The team was ready to play in official games last semester, but was advised to wait until the spring to give themselves more time to practice and organize the sport club. Now Georgia College and Lou Schreckenberger. the Bobcat’s president, are looking to start their season off with a win against the Yellow Jackets, who beat Kennesaw State last weekend.
The Bobcats are a relative mystery for Georgia Tech, and they’ll be looking to come out tomorrow with an intensity the Yellow Jackets won’t be able to match. It’s been a long time coming, and they’re ready to get out onto the field to play a meaningful game. Georgia Tech will have their hands full, but they’re used to playing on the road and have experience in close games. The outcome of this game is a toss up and both teams have a great chance to walk away with a victory.
Both teams, however, will have some unfortunate absences for the game tomorrow. The injury bug has hit the Bobcats roster and will leave them with less depth than they originally anticipated. For Georgia Tech, a few key players will be gone due to other obligations, which adds to the intrigue of the game.
The game will be played on the Georgia College intramural fields at 2:00 PM tomorrow afternoon. The forecast is showing great weather for the game tomorrow, which is a complete reversal from last weekend’s conditions in Atlanta. Anyone is welcome to come out to the game and enjoy the first ever collegiate speedball game played on Georgia College’s campus. The ISL is excited for the first ever game involving an expansion speedball team, and everyone is hoping for a great match tomorrow afternoon between both teams.
