Former Georgia high school baseball player Josh Reddick is playing in the World Series this week as the Houston Astros' right fielder. He's the only Georgian active on a World Series roster. In 2017, Reddick's foundation donated $100,000 to his alma mater and its archrival. The gift initiated the awarding of a trophy to the winner of their annual rivalry football game. What is Reddick's Georgia alma mater? (Answer Tuesday)

Answer to Friday's question: Phillip Webb, a linebacker at Lanier, is the highest-rated recruit in Georgia who is not committed. Lanier is the consensus No. 37 player in the nation, No. 6 in Georgia. His reported favorites are Alabama, Auburn, LSU and Clemson.
