Tre Phelps Leads Georgia Baseball Toward Historic Season

The junior third baseman’s standout performance and family legacy drive the Bulldogs’ national seed pursuit.

Tre Phelps, a junior third baseman for the University of Georgia, has emerged as the centerpiece of the Bulldogs’ lineup this spring, blending power and precision in a way that has drawn national attention.

Under head coach Wes Johnson, Georgia has maintained a top‑eight national seed in each of Phelps’ seasons, reaching No. 3 in the latest NCAA Tournament rankings and positioning the team as a formidable contender for the championship.

Stat Sheet Highlights

Phelps is batting .370 with a .490 on‑base percentage, has driven in 77 runs, collected 84 hits and launched 19 home runs, while being hit by a pitch a school‑record 34 times.

After being ejected for a taunting incident, he served a one‑game suspension at the start of the Super Regional, a setback that only sharpened his focus and resolve.

His aunt, Angel Robinson, a former Georgia women’s basketball star and WNBA veteran, has been a quiet influence behind his development, offering perspective that blends athletic excellence with personal resilience.

Looking Ahead

Projected as the No. 115 overall prospect by Baseball America, Phelps is expected to enter the draft conversation as a high‑upside talent, while his performance continues to elevate the program’s reputation and recruit interest.
