Madi George Sweeps National Weekly Freshman Honors
4/28/2026 | Softball
OXFORD, Miss. – Ole Miss softball freshman Madi George has swept a trio of national weekly awards, following a dominant weekend leading the Rebels.
George was selected as the D1Softball National Freshman of the Week, the Softball America National Freshman Star of the Week and Softball on SI's National Freshman of the Week. It's the first such national honor for George.
George turned in another huge week to add to her torrid pace in April, hitting .636 (7-for-11) with three home runs, 10 RBI, a double and three walks. George tallied a multi-home run game in the win over Southern Miss, before driving in six more runs in the Auburn series victory, headlined by a 3-for-3 and five RBI showing in game two.
It's been an enormous season for George, who has set the single season program records for home runs (21), RBI (56) and total bases (132). The Leander, Texas native is hitting a scorching .400, while tallying 21 home runs, seven doubles, 56 RBI and 27 walks. George is slugging .880 and also holds a team-high .497 on-base percentage.
George continues to shine in the month of April, hitting .442 with 11 home runs and 25 RBI, as well as a pair of doubles and six walks. George ranks fourth in the SEC in home runs and is tied for 13th nationally. She is also second among all freshman in the nation in home runs, trailing only Oklahoma's Kendall Wells.
The Rebels conclude the regular season hosting a three-game series against nationally ranked Mississippi State this weekend, with game one set for Thursday at 6 p.m. CT. Game one will be streamed via SEC Network Plus.
