Panthers Drop Series Opener at Kentucky

Will Mize went 3-for-4, now batting. 412

LEXINGTON, KY. -- Georgia State dropped its series opener at Kentucky 16-1 Friday at Kentucky Proud Park.

Playing their 15th straight game against a Power 5 conference opponent, the Panthers (4-11) managed eight hits but just one extra-base hit.

Shortstop Will Mize led GSU by going 3-for-4, raising his team-leading average to .412.

Ashby Smith, seeing his first action since the opening weekend after missing 11 games due to injury, doubled in his first at-bat to drive in the Panthers' only run.

Kentucky (9-2) jumped in front with a two-run homer in the first inning and then broke the game open with a six-run second.

The series continues Saturday with a 1 p.m. game on SECN+.
