West Georgia opened its 2026-27 season with a 92-53 loss at Georgia. Meghan Gentile scored a career-high 19 points, but a second-quarter surge and a substantial rebounding edge helped the Bulldogs take control.

By the Numbers
  • Gentile: 19 points and 5 made 3-pointers.
  • Georgia: 47-35 rebounding advantage and 58-18 edge in points in the paint.
  • West Georgia: 15-for-22 at the free-throw line.
Yes, But

The Wolves showed some offensive fight after halftime, scoring 30 points in the second half, but couldn’t overcome Georgia’s 25-8 second-quarter advantage.

What's Next

West Georgia hosts Alabama State Saturday at 2 p.m. for its home opener at The Coliseum.

Bottom Line

Gentile’s shooting offered a bright spot, but West Georgia will need to close the rebounding and interior-scoring gaps as it begins the season.
