Sydney Sherrill Earns ACC Defensive Player of the Year Honors; Eight Named to All-ACC Teams. May 11, 2022 TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - For the third
straight season, Sydney Sherrill has been named the ACC Defensive Player of the Year. She was named to the All-ACC Team along with seven others on the Seminole softball team. The ACC Defensive
Player of the Year award has been around for only four years and Sydney Sherrill has won it three times, solidifying her as one of the best defensive players in conference history. Sherrill was a
brick wall all season long at third base, earning a .977 fielding percentage in the regular season and a perfect fielding percentage in ACC Play. She added a .324 batting average to her defensive
performance as she recorded a team-high 13 doubles to go with 37 RBI and eight home runs. She is a part of a Seminole defense that led the country in fielding percentage (.983) while turning 23
double plays. Florida State placed eight student-athletes on the 2022 All-ACC Teams as announced by the Atlantic Coast Conference on Wednesday. Sherrill is joined by Kaley Mudge, Mack Leonard and
Kathryn Sandercock on the first team. Michaela Edenfield, Devyn Flaherty and Kalei Harding were named to the All-ACC second team and Danielle Watson was named to the third team. Sydney Sherrill has

Florida State had a balanced attack on offense as five different players recorded a hit. FSU recorded two doubles and three singles while getting on base three times from walks and once from a hit by pitch.

Sydney Sherrill got the Seminoles started early in the first inning of today's game. After Kaley Mudge stole second and advanced to third, Sherrill hit a single deep to the right side of the field that gave the Seminoles a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the first.
In the bottom of the third, after Mudge doubled and then got to third base on the next at-bat, it was Harding's turn to drive in Mudge as she singled to right field and put the Seminoles up 3-0.
After allowing a run in the top of the fourth inning, the Seminoles got back to it in the bottom of the fourth as Michaela Edenfield doubled to second base on the first at-bat of the inning. After D'Aun Riggs pinch ran for Edenfield and advanced to third base on a passed ball, Devyn Flaherty drove in a run as she singled to left field and Riggs scored.
After innings five and six were relatively quiet, in the top of the seventh, relief pitcher Emily Wilson allowed a two-run home run to make the score 4-3, but caused Mackenzie Bratcher to ground out and secured the win and got the save for the Seminoles.

Defense and Pitching Leads the Noles to a 2-1 Win over No. 16 Michigan.
CLEARWATER, Fla. - The sixth-ranked Florida State Seminole softball team (8-0) remained unbeaten on the season with a 2-1 win over No. 16 Michigan (4-4) at the St. Pete Clearwater Elite Invitational.
Danielle Watson started for the Noles and pitched a gem of a game to improve to 4-0 on the season. She threw six innings, allowing just three hits and one earned run on 64 pitches. Watson came up one strikeout shy of a season-high and two shy of a career-high as she fanned seven batters.
Kathryn Sandercock entered the game in the seventh inning with Florida State holding a 2-1 lead. Sandercock earned her first save of the season as she faced four batters, striking out one of them.
Florida State got on the board in the second inning with one run by Devyn Flaherty. Flaherty led off the inning with a single to the shortstop and then stole second. The Garnet and Gold loaded the bases after Bethaney Keen walked and Brooke Blankenship singled to the third baseman. Kaley Mudge forced a seven-pitch walk to score the game's first run.
After the Seminole defense retired the first nine batters in order, the Noles put up their second and last run of the game in the third inning. Michaela Edenfield doubled to left-center with one out. Flaherty then walked and Sydney Sherrill singled to first base to load the bases once again for Florida State. A Michigan wild pitch over the catcher's head brought home Edenfield to make it 2-0.
That was enough for Florida State as they would only allow one run in the top of the sixth inning. FSU improved to 8-0 with the 2-1 win and its third ranked win of the season.

No-Hitter Leads the Noles to a Run Rule Victory Over No. 24 UCF.
CLEARWATER, Fla. - The sixth-ranked Florida State Seminole softball team (9-0) grabbed a combined no-hitter in an 8-0 five-inning win over No. 24 UCF (6-5).
Kathryn Sandercock started for the Noles and pitched a perfect game through four innings with four strikeouts. Emma Wilson entered in relief and finished off the combined no-hitter with one strikeout in the fifth inning.
The no-hitter was the 30th under head coach Lonni Alameda. The last one took place a season ago when Caylan Arnold, Danielle Watson and Emma Wilson combined for a no-hit win at Boston College (March 26).
Florida State struck first in the third inning. Devyn Flaherty started the scoring with a double to left-center that scored Michaela Edenfield and Kalei Harding. In the next at-bat, Sydney Sherrill touched them all after an error by the UCF right fielder. Sherrill's hit rolled between the UCF player's legs and Sherrill hustled around the bases to give the Noles a 4-0 lead.
The Garnet and Gold put up four more runs in the fourth inning to secure the run-rule victory. Josie Muffley led off with a single to right field. She then stole second and advanced to third on a ground out. Jahni Kerr walked and then Mack Leonard singled to score Muffley. Pinch-runner D'Aun Riggs made it 6-0 after scoring from third on a wild pitch.
Edenfield finished off the Knights with a two-run bomb to left-center field.

Florida State Shuts Out Hofstra and Indiana.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - The third-ranked Florida State Seminoles (13-0) started the Unconquered Invitational with a 3-0 win against Hofstra (0-6) and a 9-0 win against Indiana (3-3).
Game 1: #3 Florida State 3, Hofstra 0
Danielle Watson pitched a masterclass game for the Seminoles. Watson pitched a complete game, only allowed one hit, four walks, and allowed zero runs. On top of that, Watson shattered her career-high in strikeouts with 11K's today.
Watson, who had 30 strikeouts all season prior to the game against Hofstra, beat both her season-high (eight strikeouts against Mercer on 2/11/21) and her career-high (nine strikeouts against NC State last season) with her dominant performance today. That performance included an incredible stretch during the 4th and 5th inning in which Watson struck out six straight Hofstra batters.
Offensively, the Seminoles had a relatively quiet game compared to the rest of the season. The Noles only put up three runs on five hits and five walks during the first game of the day.
That did not stop redshirt freshman Michaela Edenfield from hitting an absolute bomb that almost landed in spirit way garage in the bottom of the first inning. That home run gave the Seminoles a 2-0 run as sophomore Kalei Harding had walked the at-bat prior.
The homer by Edenfield added to her team-leading total with five home runs this season with only twelve games played. Five home runs on the season are three more than any other Seminole has so far this season (Kalei Harding and Mack Leonard are both tied for second with two).
Later in the third inning, after Mack Leonard walked for the fifth time this season, it was Kalei Harding's turn to drive a runner in as she hit the Seminole's only other extra-base hit of the game with a double that drove in Harding that made the score 3-0 for the rest of the game.
Elsewhere throughout the game, Edenfield hit another single and got hit by a pitch, junior Devyn Flaherty hit a single, and fellow junior Kaia LoPreste got a hit.
Scoring Summary
Kathryn Sandercock got the start in the second game of the day for the Florida State Seminoles against the Indiana Hoosiers. Sandercock pitched a five-inning gem as she held the Hoosiers to zero runs, two hits, zero walks, and five strikeouts in the Seminoles' 9-0 run-rule win.
Scoring came easy for the Seminoles this game as Devyn Flaherty hit her first home run of the season in the bottom of the first inning. It was a three-run shot to center field that scored Kalei Harding and Michaela Edenfield who got on base via a walk and a fielder's choice earlier in the inning.
While the Noles went scoreless in the second and third inning, the fourth inning is where the Seminoles ran away with the game. After Hallie Wacaser singled and was replaced by Autumn Belviy at first, Josie Muffley singled to put two runners on base for the Seminoles. Jahni Kerr doubled deep to center field, scoring Belviy to make the score 4-0.
With the lead being 4-0 and still having two runners on base, Mack Leonard walked making the bases loaded with only one out in the inning. Harding then scored on an error by the Hoosiers to make the lead 5-0. With the bases loaded, Edenfield stepped up to bat and on a 2-0 pitch, crushed a grand slam to make the lead 9-0 for the Seminoles.
Edenfield's home run was her second on the day as she had one earlier against Hofstra, and extended her team lead in home runs to six on the season. After the fourth inning ended, Sandercock allowed a double, but then struck out two of the final three batters to win the game for the Seminoles.

Noles Power Past Panthers.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Sydney Sherrill's three-run home run in the second inning was the difference as the No. 3 Florida State softball team (18-0, 1-0) took down Pitt (8-6, 0-1) by a score of 3-0 in the Noles ACC opener on Wednesday night at JoAnne Graf Field.
After a scoreless first inning, the Noles offense took advantage of two free bases to strike first.

Softball Falls For the First Time This Season.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - A high-scoring outing by the Pittsburgh Panthers (9-7) led to the first loss of the season for the third-ranked Seminoles (19-1). After clinching the series yesterday, Florida State lost game three 7-5.
After Pitt took a 1-0 lead in the first thanks to an RBI Double by Sarah Seamans, the Seminoles responded with a four-run first inning. Kaley Mudge got the Seminoles started with a double to lead off the game and Michaela Edenfield tied the game 1-1 for the Seminoles with an RBI single that left the bases loaded. With one out in the inning, Jahni Kerr hit what should've been a routine fielder's choice, but an errant throw by the Panthers allowed both Edenfield and Kalei Harding to score, giving the Seminoles a 3-1 lead.
After the throwing error put the Seminoles up, they were not finished in the first inning as Sydney Sherrill grounded out but got an RBI in the process to score Devin Flaherty and make the score 4-1 after the first inning.
The Seminoles only scored one more run and only had three more hits the rest of the way. Pittsburgh had three separate two-run home runs, one by Kayla Lane in the top of the second to make the score 4-3, one by Cami Compson to make the score 5-4 and one by Katlyn Pavlick in the top of the sixth to make it 7-5.
In the fifth inning, the Seminoles tied the game at five after Flaherty made it to first on a fielder's choice. She stole second and advanced to third on a throwing error on the same play. With Flaherty on third, Kerr stepped up to bat and zipped a double to left field tying the game for the Seminoles.

Dominant Pitching From Watson Leads Seminole to 2-0 Win Over Furman.

Game 1: Florida State 4, Georgia Tech 1
Danielle Watson pitched her second complete game of the season, allowing just one run on three hits. She recorded six strikeouts and improved to 9-1 on the season as the Seminoles defeated the Yellow Jackets 4-1.

Florida State plated their first run of the game after a throwing error by the Georgia Tech catcher. She threw down to second as Mudge stole her fifth base of the season. A bad throw hit Mudge in the back allowing Sherrill to score from third.
One pitch later Mack Leonard hit her fourth home run of the year to right field to make it 3-0. Kalei Harding decided to get in on the party, hitting her third home run of the season on the first pitch she saw.

Georgia Tech scored their only run of the game in the bottom of the fifth inning. Ella Edgmon led off the inning with a single up the middle. She then advanced to third after a stolen base and a groundout to the first baseman. The Yellow Jackets scored on a sacrifice fly to centerfield.
Game 2: Florida State 6, Georgia Tech 2
In a marathon game that lasted over four hours, the Noles were victorious over the Yellow Jackets 6-2 in 12 innings.

Five Florida State pitchers combined to allow only one hit while striking out six of the 19 Trojan batters they faced.
Offensively, the Seminole bats were on fire as the Noles recorded 14 hits. Michaela Edenfield and Devyn Flaherty both went 3-for-3 at the plate. Edenfield recorded a career-high five RBI off of two home runs and a double.
Florida State struck early with a two-run home run in the top of the first inning. With two outs, Mack Leonard walked to put the first Seminole on base. Three pitches later, Edenfield turned on one and blasted it down the left-field line for her 10th home run of the season, giving the Noles a 2-0 lead after the first inning.
After going down in order in the second inning, the Florida State offense exploded in the third inning. FSU would score five runs on five Seminole hits. Kaley Mudge led off the inning with a single to first base before getting all the way to third after a stolen base and a ground out. Mudge then beat a throw to home on a ball hit to the Troy first baseman to make it 3-0.
With Leonard on second base, Michaela Edenfield hit her second two-run home run of the night with another bomb to left field. Devyn Flaherty followed her up with a home run of her own just two pitches later. Her solo shot to right field was her third home run of the season.
Florida State put up their fifth and final run of the third inning after a Hallie Wacaser double to center field, scoring Jahni Kerr from first.
The Seminoles were not done scoring after the third inning as they put on four more runs in the top of the fourth inning on five more FSU hits. Edenfield recorded her fifth RBI of the game with a double to right-center field and she would then score on a Kalei Harding single to left field. One pitch later, the Garnet and Gold made it 10-0 after Kerr singled to the shortstop to score Flaherty. FSU capped off the fourth inning with a single from Brooke Blankenship that scored Harding.
The final run of the game came in the fifth inning off Krystina Hartley's first career hit. She scored Mudge from second base.

Softball Takes Game One Over Virginia 9-0 in Six Innings.
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. - The third-ranked Florida State softball team (33-2) took the first game of the three-game series against Virginia (21-14) 9-0 in six innings. Four Noles recorded two hits, led by Michaela Edenfield who went 2-for-2 with two home runs and was intentionally walked twice.
The Seminole bats were hot from the start of the game as the Noles recorded three hits and two runs in the first inning. Kaley Mudge led off the game with a triple to left-center field. One pitch later she scored as Sydney Sherrill hit a sacrifice fly to center field, giving FSU a 1-0 lead just three pitches into the game. The Garnet and Gold extended the lead to 2-0 after the first inning when Michaela Edenfield launched her 13th home run to straightaway centerfield on a line drive.
Edenfield struck once again in the third inning. She hit her second no-doubt home run, this one to right field. It marked her 14th home run of the season, and it was the second time of her redshirt freshman campaign that she hit two home runs in a game.
Florida State tacked on one more run in the top of the fourth inning after some good small ball action by the Noles. Hallie Wacaser led off the inning with a six-pitch walk. She then stole second and advanced third on a sacrifice bunt by Josie Muffley. Wacaser then touched home after Mudge grounded out to the pitcher making it 5-0.
The Noles made it 6-0 after five innings because of a trio of hits resulting in the sixth run for FSU. Devyn Flaherty singled through the left side and advanced to the second on the throw. Four pitches later she scored after Kalei Harding singled to right field.
FSU finished off the game with their final three runs in the sixth inning. A single by Wacaser and a double by pinch hitter Chloe Culp put runners on second and third for Mudge. She would hit a sacrifice fly to center field to give FSU a 7-0 lead. The Noles would make it 8-0 after a wild pitch and 9-0 on a double by Mack Leonard.
Kathryn Sandercock improved to 17-0 on the season as she pitched a scoreless first five innings. She recorded three strikeouts and only allowed three hits. Brianna Enter pitched the final inning of the game and allowed just one hit.

Softball Shuts Out Virginia 9-0 For the Second Straight Day.
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. - The third-ranked Florida State softball team (34-2) captured the series over Virginia (21-15) with a 9-0 win over the Cavaliers.
For the second straight game against Virginia, the Noles got on the board in the first inning. The Seminoles scored three runs on three hits in the inning. Kaley Mudge led off with a single up the middle. After a Sydney Sherrill walk, Mack Leonard singled to left field to make it 2-0. Seven pitches later Devyn Flaherty doubled down the right-field line to score Leonard and make it 3-0 for the Garnet and Gold after one inning.
Florida State made it 4-0 after they scored one more run in the third inning. With two out and Michaela Edenfield on second base, Devyn Flaherty hit a ball towards the shortstop. The first baseman ended up dropping the throw, resulting in Flaherty being safe at first and allowing Edenfield to round third and score.
Edenfield stuck for the 15th time this season sending a three-run home run to right field to give FSU a 7-0 lead after six innings. A single by Hallie Wacaser and a walk by Sherrill put the two runners on for Edenfield. Her 15 home runs this season are tied for the eighth-most in a single season in school history. She is four home runs shy of tying Jessie Warren's freshman record of 19 home runs in a season set in 2015.
The Noles put up their final two runs of the game in the top of the seventh inning. Devyn Flaherty led off with a triple to right field. Kalei Harding then sent one deep over the fence in center field on a full count to make it 9-0. It was Harding's fifth home run of the season.
Danielle Watson started in the circle for the Noles and pitched 5.2 scoreless innings while allowing just two hits. It was Watson's 11th win of the season. Emma Wilson came in with two outs in the sixth inning and recorded the final four outs of the game.

Softball Defeats No. 6 Florida 4-2 in 10 Innings.
GAINESVILLE, Fla. - The third-ranked Florida State softball team (35-2) defeated the No. 6 Florida Gators (30-6) 4-2 in 10 innings on Wednesday night.
The Seminoles stayed unbeaten against ranked teams with their seventh-ranked win of the season. It was the Noles' fifth win over the Gators in the last nine meetings.
The Gators punched first in the third inning taking a 1-0 lead. Kendra Falby reached base after a throwing error on the Seminole defense. Two batters later she scored from second after Hannah Adams singled up the middle.
Florida State tied it up in the top of the fourth inning, scoring one run on two hits. Mack Leonard led off with a single to center field. D'Aun Riggs came in to pinch run and immediately stole second base. Devyn Flaherty then drove home Riggs with a one-out single up the middle.
UF took back the lead in the bottom of the fifth scoring just one run on four hits. A leadoff single and a stolen base put a runner on second base for Leonard who had just entered the game to pitch. Charla Echols then singled up the middle to score Skylar Wallace giving the Gators a 2-1 lead after five innings.
The Noles retaliated once again in the top of the sixth scoring one run to tie up the game. Leonard once again led off the inning with a single. She then advanced to second on a wild pitch. A Flaherty single put runners on the corners before Kalei Harding singled to the shortstop, scoring Leonard and tying the game at two.
Neither team would score for the next three innings as we would head to the 10th inning. Florida State sprung the game wide open in the top of the 10th. Sydney Sherrill led off the inning with a solo home run to center field, her second of the season.
With one out Michaela Edenfield singled through the left side. Krystina Hartley came in to pinch run and advanced to third base after a Flaherty double. Harding would then hit a ball deep to centerfield for a sacrifice fly as Hartley would score.
The 10th inning was the first time that Florida State scored multiple more runs in an inning in Gainesville since 2013 Danielle Watson started in the circle for the Noles and pitched the first 4.1 innings, recording four strikeouts while allowing just one earned run. Leonard pitched the middle 3.2 innings and did now allow a run as she struck out three Gator batters. Kathryn Sandercock earned her 19th win of the season as she pitched the final two innings, allowing only one hit.

Noles Fall to Hokies in Nine Innings.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - The No. 3 Florida State softball team (36-3, 16-3) fell to the No. 5 Virginia Tech Hokies (28-4, 12-0) 6-3 in nine innings in front of a standing-room-only crowd of 1,403 at JoAnne Graf Field in Tallahassee, Fla.
The two starting pitchers shined through the first three innings with neither team able to muster up a hit. The Noles finally got going in the fourth when Kaley Mudge drew a leadoff walk and was brought home on a double by Sydney Sherrill on the game's first hit. Devyn Flaherty then popped up to shallow right field, but it bounced off the fielder's glove, scoring Sherrill to give the Noles a 2-0 lead. The Hokies would tie the game in the top of the fifth on a two-run home run to left field.
The Noles threatened in the sixth with runners on second and third but were unable to push one across. The two teams went scoreless in the seventh before Meredith Slaw hit her second home run of the game to give the Hokies a 3-2 lead in the top of the eighth.
The Noles were down to their final out before Michaela Edenfield hit a hard ground ball to third causing a high throw that sailed into the outfield. Edenfield scampered to third before another wild throw allowed her to advance all the way to home to tie the game. Flaherty was just mere inches from the winning run, as she hit a deep fly ball to center field that bounced off the top of the wall for a triple. The Noles were unable to push her across.
The Hokies responded again in the ninth with another two-run home run to give them the lead which would ultimately become the game-winning runs.
Kathryn Sandercock suffered her first loss of the season but still had a strong outing allowing just four hits in 8.1 innings.

Five Run Sixth Inning Leads Softball Past No. 5 Virginia Tech.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - After losing the previous two games against the Hokies, the Seminoles (37-4) bounced back in a big way to win the final game of the series against No. 5 Virginia Tech (29-5). In a back-and-forth game between the Noles and the Hokies, a clutch double by Sydney Sherill in the bottom of the sixth inning is what willed the Seminoles to victory.
After a quick 1-2-3 inning by Kathryn Sandercock in the first inning, Kaley Mudge singled on the first pitch of the game. After advancing to second on a Sherill foul out, Mudge then advanced to third on a passed ball. When Michaela Edenfield stepped up to bat, she hit a deep fly ball to center field that scored Mudge to give the Seminoles a 1-0 lead after just one inning.
After stranding two VT runners on base in the second inning, Kalei Harding got the Seminoles started with a double. Harding then advanced to third on a fielder's choice, and Josie Muffley hit an RBI single with two outs to make the game 2-0.
After a quiet inning for both teams in the third, the Hokies got on the board in the fourth when Jayme Bailey hit a sac fly to score Emma Yates and Darby Trull hit a double in the next at-bat to score Emma Ritter, tying the game at two.
In the bottom of the fifth, Josie Muffley walked to open the inning and quickly advanced to third base thanks to stealing second and a throwing error by the Hokies, which allowed Mudge to get on base as well. After Sherill walked, Edenfield was up to bat and hit a single to give her a team-leading 45th RBI and made the score 3-2.
In the top of the sixth, Virginia Tech answered Florida State, retaking the lead after Meredith Slaw singled, Darby Trull walked, and Mackenzie Lawter walked to give the Hokies the bases loaded with two outs. Addy Green came to bat and hit an inside the park grand slam to give the Hokies a 6-3 lead. The Seminoles put together a five-run sixth inning to answer and take back the lead. To open the inning, Devin Flaherty doubled and at the next at-bat, Kalei Harding hit an RBI single to make the game 6-4. After Hallie Wacaser hit a single and was pinch ran for by Autumn Belviy, Harding and Belviy advanced to second and third base after Jahni Kerr was thrown out at first base. After two walks due to illegal pitches, Josie Muffley and Kaley Mudge both got on base, with Mudge's walk scoring Harding to make the score 6-5.
Sherill then stepped up to bat at what was one of the biggest moments of the Noles' weekend and on a 2-2 pitch hit a double deep to right-center field clearing the basses and scored Mudge, Muffley, and Belviy to give the Seminoles an 8-6 lead, which would go on to be the final score of the game.
Kathryn Sandercock then took care of business in the top of the seventh to secure the win for the Noles and give her another complete-game win on the season. Sandercock finished the game allowing seven hits and six runs. The win improved Sandercock to 20-1 on the season.

The Noles put up two more runs in the third inning on back-to-back doubles by Sherrill and Leonard. Brooke Blankenship led off the inning with a single through the left side and then advanced to second after Kaley Mudge grounded out to first base.

North Carolina got on the board in the bottom of the fourth, scoring two runs on three hits. Sara Jubas and Skyler Brooks started off the inning with a pair of singles. They advanced to second and third after a ground out to the shortstop. Kianna Jones then singled down the left-field line, scoring two runs.
The Seminole extended their two run lead to four in the sixth with a pair of solo home runs. Kalei Harding led off the inning with a solo shot to center field and two batters later Jahni Kerr did the same. It was Harding's ninth home run of the season and Kerr's fourth.

Softball Takes the Series Over Clemson With a 7-6 Win.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - A five-run sixth inning propelled the Seminoles (42-5) over Clemson (33-13) 7-6 as the Noles clinched the series over the Tigers on Friday night.
Clemson started the game with a home run in the top of the first inning from McKenzie Clark. The Noles responded immediately, with Kaley Mudge getting walked after an 11-pitch opening at-bat. Sydney Sherill then hit her third home run of the season down the right-field line to give the Seminoles an early 2-1 lead. That home run was Sherrill's 37th in her career, moving her to fourth on the Seminole all-time home run list.
In the top of the third inning, Clark hit her second home run of the day, this time a two-run shot to put the Tigers up 3-2. After a quiet bottom third and fourth inning, Clark once again sent one over the fence for another solo shot and her third home run of the day to put Clemson up 4-2.
After squandering an opportunity to score in the fifth inning with runners on second and third, the Seminoles made clutch defensive plays to keep the Tigers off the board until the bottom of the sixth inning. Devin Flaherty got the inning started with a single, then Michela Edenfield reached on an error to put runners on first and second for the Noles. With Jahni Kerr up to bat with no outs, she laid down a crafty bunt single and beat the throw to first to give the Seminoles the bases loaded with no outs. Amaya Ross then hit a ground ball down the first base line, but thanks to an errant throw home, Flaherty, and Riggs, who pinch ran for Edenfield, scored to tie the game at four.
With zero outs still in the inning and Ross and Kerr on second and third respectively, the Seminoles had a golden opportunity to blow the game open. Brooke Blankenship was hit by a pitch to load the bases for the Noles once again. Kaley Mudge hit a deep sacrifice fly to make the game 5-4 for the Seminoles. Sherill stepped up to bat and hit a clutch single to left field to score Ross and increase the lead for the Seminoles to 6-4. A wild pitch advanced Blankenship to third and Sherill to second before Kalei Harding hit a deep sacrifice fly to score Ross and increase the lead to 7-4.
In the top of the seventh, Arielle Oda singled on the first at-bat of the inning before Kathryn Sandercock came in to close the game out for the Seminoles. Clemson's Moore reached first on a throwing error, and scored Oda, making the score 7-5. Sandercock intentionally walked Cagle before Guimbarda grounded out to second, scoring Moore to make the score 7-6. With Russ up to bat, Sandercock got her only strikeout of the game to secure the win and collect her third save on the season. That save was Sandercock's eighth all-time which moved her to a tied-for-fifth in career saves at FSU.
Emma Wilson got the start for the Seminoles, but only pitched the first inning and was replaced by Danielle Watson for the rest of the game. Wilson allowed one run on two hits in the first inning, while Watson allowed four runs on four hits while striking out three batters and getting her 14th win of the season.

Seminoles Shine On Senior Day To Sweep Clemson 6-0.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - On a day honoring the three graduating Seminoles; Maegan Tomlinson, Sydney Sherill, and Danielle Watson, the Noles used consistent offense, an explosive third inning, and exceptional pitching from Mack Leonard and Kathryn Sandercock to beat the Clemson Tigers 6-0. This win completes their sweep over the 17th-ranked Tigers. The win today also clinched the school's best start in its history with a 43-5 record.
At JoAnne Graf Field Saturday afternoon, 1,573 spectators came to watch the senior day celebrations and Seminole victory. The crowd was the tenth largest for a game at JoAnne Graf Field in program history. Tomlinson got the first start of her career for Senior Day. Mack Leonard started the game and pitched 3.2 innings while allowing zero runs on two hits with one strikeout. Kathryn Sandercock pitched 2.1 innings and kept the Tigers scoreless while only allowing one hit and getting two strikeouts. Emma Wilson came into the game in the top of the seventh inning for the Seminoles and got the first two outs. Danielle Watson came in to get the last out on Senior Day.
The game opened with a scoreless first inning. At the top of the second, Devyn Flaherty got hit by a pitch and immediately stole second base. When Jahni Kerr stepped up to the plate, she hit a single to center field to give the Seminoles a 1-0 lead and the team never looked back.
In the bottom of the third inning, Kaley Mudge got the Noles started with a single, and immediately advanced to second on a throwing error. Kalei Harding stepped up to bat, hitting a single to left field to score Mudge and give the Noles a 2-0 lead.
With only one out in the inning, it was Flaherty's turn to score a run for the Seminoles, as she hit a single to right field that drove in Harding and gave the team a 3-0 lead. At the very next at-bat, Michaela Edenfield hit her team-leading 16th home run, this time a two-run shot that hit the left-field foul pole and scored Flaherty, giving FSU a 5-0 lead.
The scoring wasn't quite finished for the Seminoles though as the bottom of the fourth began with an Amaya Ross double and a quick advance to third after a passed ball. It was then time for senior Sydney Sherrill to drive in a run as she hit a deep sacrifice fly to score Ross and propel the Seminoles to a 6-0 lead, which solidified the final score on the day.

Noles Walk Off Oklahoma State in the Ninth Inning.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - No. 4 Florida State (44-5) opened their two-game series against No. 7 Oklahoma State (39-7) with a 2-1 extra-inning win on Thursday evening. The Noles wore pink jerseys that are being auctioned off to raise money for the Tallahassee Memorial Health Care Walker Breast Center.
Danielle Watson pitched seven innings totaling five strikeouts while allowing just one run. Mack Leonard entered the game in the eighth inning and grabbed the final six outs while not allowing a single hit.
Oklahoma State's single run came in the top of the third off two hits. The Seminoles responded in the following inning with Kaley Mudge and Sydney Sherrill getting on base after a single and a walk. Both Mudge and Sherrill advanced to second and third on a wild pitch. Leonard then stepped up to the plate and hit a single to shallow right field to bring Mudge home and tie the game.
The teams would trade several outs before the Noles strong defense came into play in the top of the seventh inning when Mudge provided two spectacular diving catches for the first and third outs of the inning.
Leonard replaced Watson in the eighth inning and sat down six of the seven batters she faced over two innings. Sherill would come up with another spectacular play in the ninth when she dove at third base to tag out the runner.
In the bottom of the ninth, Sherrill, Harding and Leonard reach base with one out to load the bases. With the bases loaded, Devin Flaherty stepped up to bat and hit a groundball to the shortstop but thanks to an overthrow to the catcher, Sherrill was able to slide home and win the game for the Noles.
The victory extended FSU's win streak to six and a historic 44-5 record to start the season. It was Florida State's fourth walk-off of the season. FSU is now 12-2 against ranked teams.

After Kaley Mudge flew out to left field, Sydney Sherrill hit a first-pitch home run to straightaway center field. It was her fourth of the season and the 38th of her career. Her 38 career home runs rank in a tie for third all-time at FSU.
Oklahoma State tied it up in the fourth inning. Back-to-back hit by pitches put runners on first and second for the Cowgirls to start the inning. A groundout put runners on second and third for Sydney Pennington who singled to left field to score OSU's only run of the game.
The Seminoles retaliated in the bottom of the sixth inning with a solo home run from Chloe Culp who came in to pinch-hit for Amaya Ross. It was Culp's fifth career home run and first since March 4, 2020, when she hit one at UCF.
The Seminole pitching staff shut down Oklahoma State for the second straight day, allowing just three hits and one run. Emma Wilson pitched a perfect first two innings before Kathryn Sandercock came in and earned her 24th win of the season.

The Seminole bats exploded once again in the fourth inning as Sherrill and Kalei Harding hit a pair of solo home runs. Sherrill's was her third home run in three at-bats. She became the first Seminole to hit three home runs in a single game. Harding's home run was the sixth of the game for FSU, tying an FSU record.
The Wolfpack joined in on the home run party with their second of the game, this time by Alaina Smith to bring the score to 6-3 in favor of the Seminoles.
Florida State broke its team home run record in the top of the sixth inning after Mack Leonard hit the FSU's seventh home run of the game. Harding reached on a fielding error and three pitches later Leonard hit one way over the wall to give FSU an 8-3 lead.
NC State copied the Noles in the bottom of the sixth inning with a two-run home run of their own. Sam Sack hit the two-run home run after Whittaker singled up the middle.
The wild game ended up with the Noles winning 10-6 after Kaley Mudge singled up the middle to score Josie Muffley and Edenfield.

Florida State quickly retaliated scoring three runs in the bottom of the first. Kaley Mudge, Sydney Sherrill and Kalei Harding led off with three consecutive singles. Harding's single scored Mudge from second. Devyn Flaherty then singled to left field scoring both Sherrill and Harding, giving FSU a 3-1 lead.
In the top of the second inning, Clemson scored three more runs to take a 4-3 lead. A pair of walks and a single loaded the bases for the Tigers before a foul out scored Clemson's first run of the inning. A double down the left-field line by McKenzie Clark gave Clemson the lead as it scored two runs.
The Seminoles tied things up in the bottom of the second off a solo home run by Harding, her 15th of the season. Clemson took back the lead in the top of the fourth with a solo home run of their own by Sam Russ.
Clemson took a one-run lead in the top of the fourth and held on to it until the sixth inning. FSU tied things up after Amaya Ross scored on a sacrifice fly by Mudge. After Sherrill was walked and Harding was intentionally walked, Mack Leonard stepped up the play with two outs and hit her eighth home run of the season to give FSU an 8-5 lead.
Clemson would score one final run in the top of the seventh but that was not enough as FSU would win its 17th ACC Tournament Championship.
Mack Leonard, Devyn Flaherty, Kathryn Sandercock and Kalei Harding were all named to the All-Tournament Team. Harding was named the tournament MVP.

The Seminoles extended their lead to four runs in the fourth inning after scoring three on just one hit. Devyn Flaherty got hit by a pitch in the lead-off position and then got all the way to third after stealing two bases. Jahni Kerr then singled to right-center to score Flaherty. A stolen base and a wild pitch put Kerr on third before scoring on a sacrifice fly by Chloe Culp. A Josie Muffley sac fly scored D'Aun Riggs who came in as a pinch-runner for Michaela Edenfield who reach base by a walk.
FSU capped off the game with four runs in the fifth inning to run-rule the Bison. Sydney Sherrill and Kalei Harding led off the inning with a pair of walks before Mack Leonard doubled to right field to make it 5-0. Kerr then hit another sac fly for her third RBI of the game to make it 6-0. A Michaela Edenfield single to left-center put the Noles one run away from moving on in the winner's bracket. Chloe Culp capped off the night with a single through the left side to score Edenfield.
