The Yellow Jackets are on a seven-game losing skid, coming off of consecutive series sweeps by Louisville and Notre Dame along with a mid-week defeat to Georgia in between. Mercer will face RHP Jake Lee first on the mound Tuesday. Lee owns a 1-2 record and 7.88 ERA in 10 appearances (two starts) while opponents are batting.299 off him. SERIES HISTORY Mercer and Georgia have met at least once every season since 2008, continuing a historic series that the Yellow Jackets lead The teams are an even 5-5 in their last 10 meetings. Mercer trails when playing at Russ Chandler Stadium, but has won three of the last five, including a 9-8 contest April 19, LAST MEETING A season-high 18 hits powered the visiting Yellow Jackets to an 11-3 victory over Mercer at OrthoGeorgia Park on Tuesday, March 28. A full house of 2,267 attendees were on hand for the game despite the Bears loss. Mercer claimed a 1-0 lead in the second inning on a sacrifice fly by Hunter Bening that scored Charlie Madden. It was all Yellow Jackets from there on, however, as they used a four-run third inning and three-run seventh inning to win the first of two meetings between the programs this season. Six Bears took the mound including starter Kevin Coulter, who took the loss and moved to 2-2. A plethora of late-game substitutions led to Mercer using 16 position players in total.

The Bears have swept Furman, Samford and VMI in consecutive weekends en route to an 11-1 SoCon mark and three-game lead in the standings. AMONG NATION'S BEST Mercer cracked Perfect Game USA's Top 25 poll Monday, coming in at No. 22 after a second straight 4-0 week. It is the Bears' first national ranking of the season. They are also receiving votes in the NCBWA Top 25 Poll and USA Today Coaches Poll for a fourth consecutive week. PATIENCE, YOUNG BEAR CUB Mercer is the nation's leader in bases on balls after drawing 21 walks at VMI last weekend. The Bears have drawn double-digit walks in four of the last eight games. Ryan Hagan (32), Jackson Ware (28) and Trey Truitt (27) rank among the top 50 nationally. WEAPONS OF CHOICE: A SPEAR & A BROOM Mercer has benefited from the outstanding relief pitching of Nick Spear and Robert Broom this season.

Broom reached the 100-inning threshold for his career last week. By doing so, he became the SoCon's active leader in ERA (3.35) and strikeouts per nine innings (11.65) while ranking third among active players in hits allowed per nine innings (7.85).

HAGAN HEATING UP After a slow start to the season offensively, Ryan Hagan has emerged as one of Mercer's hottest bats since SoCon play opened. The senior made a switch to shortstop, defensively, and is batting.447 in league play with 19 runs scored, 11 RBI and seven stolen bases. All five of his home runs this season have come in SoCon games as well. SMALL BALL, LONG BALL 2 BACK The Mercer offense is proving it can do a bit of everything, as it ranks third nationally with 67 home runs and first nationally with 56 sacrifice bunts. Charlie Madden (14), JT Thomas (12) and Hunter Bening (12) rank fourth and 14th in home runs nationally. Jackson Ware is the nation's sac bunt leader with 18 individually.

6 THE GIBSON FILE Hometown: Macon, Ga. Alma Mater: Mercer 85 Wife: Diane Children: Lindsey, Tyler GIBSON S CAREER BREAKDOWN Mercer Graduate Assistant Jupiter H.S. Head Coach Suncoast H.S. Head Coach 1991 Palm Beach Gardens H.S. Head Coach Mercer Assistant Coach Mercer Head Coach 2004-Present CRAIG GIBSON HEAD COACH 14TH SEASON With a philosophy based on the concepts of striving for excellence in the classroom, reaching out in the community and team achievement on the field, Mercer Head Coach Craig Gibson enters his 14th season at the program s helm having led the Bears to unparalleled success during his tenure including a Top-100 ranking as a program by D1Baseball.com. With a career record, Gibson will have the Bears poised to reload in 2017 after capturing its second consecutive Southern Conference regular season championship a year ago, largely in thanks to his prowess in player development and recruiting. Under Gibson s watch, Mercer has developed into one of the most exciting programs in the country; the program leads the nation with 405 home runs over the last six years and has led its conference in ERA in three consecutive seasons. Since taking over for long-time skipper Barry Myers in 2004, Gibson has guided the Bears from the depths of the Atlantic Sun Conference to the top of the SoCon as one of the most respected programs in the southeast including an unprecedented run over the last seven years. Under Gibson s tutelage, Mercer has set a program record with seven-straight seasons of 35 wins or more, becoming just one of seven programs in the country to achieve the feat in that span. A large part of that success is due to the program s dominance at Claude Smith Field which will be unveiled as OrthoGeorgia Park at the start of the 2017 campaign. The program is overall at home since the start of the 2012 campaign, including a 24-4 mark in 2014 to rank seventh in the nation with a.857 winning percentage. The 2016 campaign proved to be one of great success on a team and individual basis for Mercer and Gibson, who captured his 400th career victory on March 1. Mercer went overall while ranking among the nation s leaders in numerous offensive categories. Mercer led all NCAA Division I programs with an average of 1.52 home runs per game, 93 sacrifice bunts and 366 bases on balls while ranking in the top-10 nationally for home runs (93; second), on-base percentage (.414; fourth), slugging percentage (.491; seventh) and runs scored (473; seventh). A youthful pitching staff that featured only one player with substantial innings pitched in previous seasons also developed into the SoCon s top staff, leading all conference teams with a 4.82 ERA in conference play. The staff also allowed the fewest walks (86), hits (225) and runs (126) while limiting opponents to a.274 batting average in conference play as well. There was no shortage of individual success for the Bears in 2016 as well, highlighted by none other than Golden Spikes Award winner and consensus All-American Kyle Lewis, who was drafted No. 11 overall by the Seattle Mariners in the MLB Draft. Gibson s mentorship of Lewis helped the junior center fielder develop into one of college baseball s premier positional players in 2016, ranking among national statistical leaders in batting average (.395), bases on balls (66), hits (88), home runs (20), on-base percentage (.535), runs scored (70), RBIs (72) and slugging percentage (.731). Lewis became the most decorated student-athlete in Mercer University history has he captured his second straight SoCon Player of the Year honor, was named a Rawlings Gold Glove winner and earned five National Player of the Year recognitions from the likes of USA Baseball, Baseball America and the American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA), among others.
