A Look at What’s Ahead
Georgia will then begin postseason play in Savannah, Georgia at the 2025 Allstate SEC Volleyball Tournament next week. The 9-16 seeds will open tournament action on Friday, Nov. 21. The 5-8 seeds get a first round bye to Saturday, Nov. 22 with the top four seeds getting a bye to the quarterfinals on Sunday, Nov. 23. The final bracket and seeding will be determined following Sunday’s matches.
 
Block Party In Athens
The Bulldogs have ranked in the top 10 nationally in blocks per set since week three of the season, following the Classic City Clash (Sept. 4-5). Georgia currently ranks sixth in the country and first in the SEC with 2.94 blocks per set. Middle blocker Kendal Kemp ranks eighth in the country with 1.51 blocks per set. As a team, Georgia has tallied 10 or more blocks in 17 of 24 matches this season. Georgia put up a season-high 20 blocks against Alabama, the most since Sept. 28, 2022.
 
The Steg Was Rocking
Georgia welcomed 25,050 fans to volleyball matches in 2025 at Stegeman Coliseum. That number sets a new season attendance record, topping last season’s mark of 24, 646. Georgia broke its single-match attendance record when 8,719 fans attended the match against Alabama on Oct. 17. That number is the NCAA state record as well.
 
Six In A Row
Georgia extended its conference win streak to six matches with a four-set win on the road at Vanderbilt on Oct. 24. The streak was snapped at Missouri on Oct. 26. Georgia’s win streak matched 2022’s streak of six conference matches in a row. Before that, Georgia has not accomplished that feat since 2008.
 
Kemp Tabbed SEC Defensive Player of the Week (Again)
For the second week in a row, Kendal Kemp was named the SEC Co-Defensive Player of the Week. Kemp opened the weekend by recording a career-high 15 blocks against Alabama. Her 14 block assists rank second all-time in a five-set match, and her 15 total blocks tie the five-set rally scoring record at Georgia. She added six in Sunday’s match against Mississippi State with eight kills on the offensive side of the ball. With Kemp leading the charge, Georgia has recorded 10.0 or more blocks in 14 of 18 matches this season and each of the last six matches. Georgia put up a season-high 20 blocks in Friday’s match, the most since Sept. 28, 2022.
 
8,719 Pack Stegeman for Georgia State NCAA Record
The University of Georgia welcomed 8,719 Bulldog faithful to Stegeman Coliseum on Friday, Oct. 17. The number not only broke the program attendance record, but also set a new mark for an NCAA volleyball match in the state of Georgia, topping the previous mark of 8,376 set in 2024 when Georgia hosted South Carolina at Stegeman Coliseum on Oct. 11.
 
Kemp Tabbed SEC Defensive Player of the Week
Redshirt-junior Kendal Kemp named the SEC Defensive Player of the Week on Oct. 13. It is Kemp’s first SEC weekly award as a Bulldog and fourth of her career (two Defensive Player of the Week awards, two Freshman of the Week awards). Kemp totaled 12 blocks on Georgia’s road trip to Arkansas and Oklahoma, registering 1.50 blocks per set en route to wins over the Razorbacks and Sooners. Not only did Kemp perform on the defensive side of the ball, but she also recorded 18 kills and hit .485 on the weekend.
 
Road Warriors
Five of Georgia’s first six SEC matches were on the road. That was the most of any SEC team through the first six conference matches. Georgia went 3-2 in that road stretch with back-to-back-to-back wins over South Carolina, Arkansas, and Oklahoma. The Bulldogs hosted No. 2 Texas in their lone match at Stegeman between Sept. 14 against FIU and Oct. 17 when Alabama comes to Athens. Reversely, Georgia will get to play on its home court in six of its final nine matches beginning Oct. 17.
