The final battle of the Prebul/Kia All-Star Series will take place this Thursday night at Frost Stadium in Chattanooga as Tennessee clashes with Georgia in a softball doubleheader.

The first pitch of Game 1 is scheduled for 7 p.m.

The Peach State, whose only win in the series was a 2-1 victory in Game 1 of the 2003 Classic, will be looking for revenge after a pair of losses last year, 3-1 and 5-4 in nine-innings.

Pitching will be the name of the game for Team Georgia as they look to slow down a good hitting Tennessee squad led by University of Tennessee signee Lillian Hammond of GPS, Walker Valley’s Ashley Bain and Baylor’s Mary Catherine Veracoe, who helped lead the Red Raiders to their second straight Division II state championship.

Also scheduled to suit up for Tennessee include East Ridge standouts Ashley Adkins and Christina Haskew, Grace Academy ace Tiffany Walker, Soddy-Daisy’s Amy Miller and Martha Davis and Maggie Renfro who led the surprising Red Bank Lady Lions to the Class AAA state title.

Georgia will have a number of strong arms at their disposal, including the Class A Pitcher of the Year, Sam Floyd of Gordon Lee, and the Class AA Pitcher of the Year, Laura Moore of Dade County, who are both headed to Middle Tennessee State University.

Other top hurlers include Dade County’s Cara Stephens, Murray County’s Whitney Padgett, Trion’s Brittney McCrickard and Woodland’s April Day.

Georgia will also have some offensive firepower in UTC signee Ashley Cutticha (Dade County), Rachel Reed (Dade County), Ridgeland’s Dixie Ross and the Ringgold duo of Rachel Norris and Jessica Lackey.
