The Southeastern Conference made up the remainder of the 12 player team. Alabama received three selections while both Florida and Georgia had two players make the squad. The Bulldogs, who were making their first-ever WCWS appearance, went 3-2 in Oklahoma City with wins over Missouri, Michigan and eventual national champion Washington. The Huskies were the only team to defeat the Bulldogs.
Goler, a native of Frankfort, Ill., went 4-for-12 with a home run and four RBI at the WCWS. She also drew four walks and scored two runs. In Georgia's win over Washington, Goler went 2-for-4 including a two-run home run that tied the game at 4-4 in the third inning. The Bulldogs went on to win that contest by a score of 9-8.
Schlopy, a native of West Hills, Calif., also tallied four hits at the WCWS including two home runs to produce six RBI while also scoring five runs. She also made a return to the circle in Georgia's win over Washington entering to pitch twice after having not pitched since Feb. 22.
