ATHENS, Ga. — After transfer Frank Anslem scored the first points of the Mike White era against the Western Carolina Catamounts (0-1), the Georgia Bulldogs (1-0) never surrendered their lead for the remainder of the game, winning their season opener 68-55 on Monday evening at Stegeman Coliseum.
Junior Kario Oquendo guided the team filled with newcomers, appearing to be in midseason form as he led the team with 18 points on 7-of-11 shooting including a pair of three-pointers and three blocks. Anslem added 11 points and four rebounds in his first official outing as a Bulldog.
“Feels good to get a win with the Dawgs,” said Coach White. “I am happy for all of the newcomers to this program, there’s a bunch, most of our locker room of course, and that goes all the way down to our staff, our support staff. Portal guys, freshmen, walk-ons, but probably most importantly, I am happy for those guys that decided to come back this year. We have put forth a lot of effort this fall and found a way to grind one out.”
ATHENS – Three double-digit scorers fueled the Georgia Lady Bulldog basketball team (1-0) past Coastal Carolina (0-1), 78-61, in the 2022-23 season opener Monday evening in Stegeman Coliseum.

Georgia has won 17-straight season openers and improves to 1-0 on the season. The Lady Bulldogs improve to 41-9 in season-opening games.
Senior Javyn Nicholson led the Lady Bulldogs in scoring with 14 points, going 6-for-10 from the field, followed by fifth-years Diamond Battles with 13 and Brittney Smith with 12, respectively. Nicholson led Georgia in the paint with nine rebounds.
