Mike Martin to receive the 2024 ABCA/Wilson Lefty Gomez Award.

July 12, 2023

Mike Martin, Florida State University coaching legend and ABCA Hall of Fame member Mike Martin is the distinguished recipient of the 2024 ABCA/Wilson Lefty Gomez Award.

Named after the great Lefty Gomez, this annual award is presented to an individual who has contributed significantly to the game of baseball locally, nationally and internationally. The Lefty Gomez Award is presented by Wilson Sporting Goods and will be awarded during the Hall of Fame Banquet at the ABCA Convention on Friday, Jan. 5, 2024, in Dallas, Texas.

Martin's legendary coaching career began in 1980 when he became the head baseball coach at Florida State after having served as an assistant for the Seminoles for five seasons. Over the next 40 years, his teams would make 17 College World Series appearances while qualifying for the NCAA Tournament in each of his 40 seasons.

Inducted into the ABCA Hall of Fame in 2007, Martin called it a career following the 2019 season, retiring as the NCAA's all-time winningest coach in any sport with a record 2,029 career victories. The 13-time conference Coach of the Year led the Seminoles to 11 Metro Conference titles and nine ACC titles, while producing eight National Players of the Year and four Golden Spikes Award winners.

Off the field, Martin's student-athletes were selected to the academic team of distinction 72 times since its 2006 inception, while leading the ACC six times in 13 years. Three of Martin's players earned ACC Scholar-Athlete of the Year honors on five occasions, while his teams were twice honored with the ACC Sportsmanship Award.

In addition to his work with the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and in the Tallahassee community, the 47-year Lifetime ABCA Member has been a featured clinician at several ABCA Conventions.

In 2019, Martin was honored with induction into the National College Baseball Hall of Fame, and in 2020, the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association named its National Coach of the Year Award in his honor.

James Tibbs III Named ACC Player of the Year; Five Noles Earn All-ACC Honors.

May 20, 2024

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Junior outfielder James Tibbs III was named the Atlantic Coast Conference Player of the Year Monday, the ninth Seminole to earn the honor. Tibbs and starting pitcher Jamie Arnold also earned All-ACC First Team honors, while Cam Smith was the second team third baseman and Jaime Ferrer and Marco Dinges earned third-team recognition.

Tibbs, from Marietta, Georgia, led the ACC with 24 home runs, 78 RBI, an .840 slugging percentage, 1.340 OPS and 168 total bases. He finished top 10 in the league in batting average (third, .385), on-base percentage (fourth, .500), hits (fifth, 77), runs (seventh, 61), doubles (eighth, 17) and walks (ninth, 42).

In conference play, Tibbs' on-base percentage rose to .519, tops in the league.

Among Tibbs notable achievements in 2024, he was the only qualifying hitter in the conference with more home runs than strikeouts. His 24 home runs are 10th-most in a season at Florida State and the most since ACC Player of the Year Buster Posey hit 26 in 2008.

Tibbs' 51 career home runs are sixth in program history. He had five multi-home run games this year.

Tibbs started all 53 games for FSU in right field, with zero errors and six outfield assists. He also added a career-high six stolen bases.

Arnold, from Tampa, led FSU with a 9-3 record and 124 strikeouts while leading the ACC with a 2.42 ERA. Opponents hit just .220 against the sophomore left-hander.

Arnold began the season with 24.1 innings without allowing an earned run. At No. 3 Clemson, Arnold allowed just one run over 7.0 innings and at Pittsburgh, Arnold struck out 17 batters - the most for a Seminole since 1987 and the most in the ACC since 2018 - while allowing just one run and no walks. Arnold's 17 strikeouts are the second-most in the country this season.

Smith was the second-team third baseman after hitting .400 with 13 home runs and 18 doubles. Smith started all 53 games for the Seminoles and ranked second in the ACC in batting average, the highest for a Seminole since 2009.

Smith's 70 runs and 88 hits were second in the league. Smith was fifth with a .484 on-base percentage and sixth in doubles and total bases (147).

Ferrer, and outfielder from Bayamon, Puerto Rico, hit .305 with a career-high 15 home runs and 46 RBI. Ferrer's three-run home run in the first inning at No. 6 Duke led FSU to a 4-2 win.

Ferrer and Tibbs both hit two grand slams in 2024. Dinges, from Beekman, New York, led FSU with three grand slams, part of a school-record nine that FSU hit this season.

Dinges hit .307 with 12 home runs, nine doubles and 45 runs scored. He added 56 RBI and 32 walks, both second on the team behind Tibbs. Dinges served as Florida State's primary designated hitter.

Three times in 2024, Dinges had a grand slam and five total RBI in a game - against Louisville, Florida and North Florida. He also added a pair of triples against the Cardinals.

Tibbs is FSU's ninth ACC Player of the Year and first since Mat Nelson in 2021. Joining Tibbs and Nelson is J.D. Drew (1997), Marshall McDougall (1999), John-Ford Griffin (2001), Tony Thomas Jr. (2007), Posey (2008), James Ramsey (2012) and DJ Stewart (2014).

This is Tibbs', Arnold's and Dinges' first end-of-year honors from the ACC. Ferrer and Smith were on the All-Freshman Team in 2022 and 2023, respectively.

Tibbs, Arnold, Smith Named All-Americans.

June 26, 2024

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - James Tibbs III, Jamie Arnold and Cam Smith were named All-Americans after leading Florida State to the College World Series and No. 3 national ranking.

Tibbs, from Marietta, Georgia, was a unanimous first-team selection from Perfect Game, D1Baseball, Baseball America, the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association and the American Baseball Coaches Association. Tibbs started all 66 games in right field for the Seminoles and hit .363 with 91 hits, 18 doubles and 28 home runs, the most for a Seminole since 1999. His 95 RBI were second in the country and also the most at Florida State since 1999.

Tibbs had five multi-home run games in 2024, including a three-home run, six-RBI game vs. UConn in the Super Regional to send Florida State to the 24th College World Series in school history and first since 2019. Tibbs was previously named the ACC Player of the Year and Baseball Scholar-Athlete of the Year and was a first-team All-ACC selection.

Starting pitcher Arnold, from Tampa, was a first-team All-American from Perfect Game, D1Baseball, the NCBWA and ABCA and a second-team choice of Baseball America. Arnold finished the season 11-3 with a 2.98 ERA and 159 strikeouts over 105.2 innings pitched, with just 26 walks. Opponents hit .224 against the left-hander.

Arnold's 159 strikeouts were fifth in program history and the most since Paul Wilson - the No. 1 overall pick in the 1994 MLB Draft - struck out 163 in 1994. Arnold's 11 wins are the most for a Seminole since 2012, while his 17 strikeouts at Pittsburgh on May 10 were the most at Florida State since 1987.

Arnold was the Most Outstanding Player of the Tallahassee Regional, first-team All-ACC and earned a spot at the USA Baseball Collegiate National Team training camp tryout later this summer.

Smith, from Lake Worth, Florida, was a second-team All-American from Perfect Game and Baseball America and third-team All-American from D1Baseball. The third baseman started all 66 games at the hot corner for the Seminoles and led FSU with a .387 batting average, 104 hits and added a career-high 16 home runs.

Smith's .387 batting average is the highest for a Seminole since Tyler Holt hit .401 in 2009; his 104 hits were the most for a Nole since Buster Posey's 119 in 2008. The sophomore had a 56-game on-base streak over the last two seasons, the seventh-longest in program history.

Tibbs and Arnold are FSU's first first-team All-Americans since Parker Messick in 2022, and the first FSU teammates to earn the honor in the same season since Robert Benincasa, Jayce Boyd and James Ramsey in 2012. That was also the last time FSU had at least three total All-Americans.

Leiter Leads Noles to 11-0 Win Over Butler.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - In the first game since the passing of legendary coach Mike Martin - called '11' by Seminole faithful - Florida State began the 2024 season with an 11-0 win over Butler on Friday night on Mike Martin Field on Dick Howser Stadium. Making his Seminole debut, right-hander Cam Leiter struck out 13 batters and led the pitching staff to 22 total strikeouts while James Tibbs III recorded his second career grand slam.

FSU's Opening Day shutout matches its shutout total from 2023.

Leiter set a career-high with 13 strikeouts and were the most for a Nole in a season opener since Tony Avitable set the school record with 24 in 1956. He allowed just one hit and walked two on 89 pitches.

The second of four pitchers making their Florida State debut, junior college transfer Carson Dorsey began his relief outing in the top of the sixth and kept the strikeouts coming. He pitched 2.0 innings and sat down five more batters to bring the total to 18 strikeouts on the day. Freshmen Hudson Rowan and Matt Sauser each struck out a pair over 1.0 innings pitched.

After scoring three runs via wild pitch in the first two innings, Tibbs' grand slam in the sixth inning put the game out of reach for the Noles. It was his second career grand slam and he scored his 99th career run.

After Alex Lodise singled to plate Drew Faurot in the seventh inning, Max Williams and Cal Fisher hit back-to-back home runs in the eighth to provide the final margin. Both players homered in their first Seminole at-bat.

Holbrook, Arnold Lead Seminoles to First Series Victory.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Florida State (2-0) clinched the shortened weekend series against Butler (0-2) with a 15-5 win on Sunday afternoon on Mike Martin Field at Dick Howser Stadium. McGwire Holbrook smashed a three-run homer while left-hander Jamie Arnold struck out nine batters with no earned runs.

Holbrook had a picturesque day at the plate hitting 3-for-3, scoring three runs, and five RBI. All records were career-best numbers for the senior catcher and his home run was his first as a Seminole.

Arnold began his sophomore season with a new career-high in nine strikeouts, did not walk a batter and allowed no earned runs in his start. He pitched 5.0 innings, marking his second-longest career outing on the mound.

In relief, Brennen Oxford and Ryan Denison each struck out two batters. With 14 more strikeouts Sunday, the pitching staff recorded 36 strikeouts in the two-game opening series.

Drew Faurot added three hits and is hitting .500 through two games. Jaime Ferrer plated a run with an RBI triple and James Tibbs III got FSU on the board in the first inning with an RBI double.

The Seminoles stole seven bases Sunday, its most in a game since 2016. FSU stole four bases in the second inning alone, matching its game high from the previous seven seasons.

Dorsey Strikes Out 10 in 3.2 Innings, Noles Beat Jacksonville.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Relief pitcher Carson Dorsey struck out 10 batters in 3.2 innings as Florida State (3-0) scored three runs in the ninth inning to beat Jacksonville (2-1) 7-4 Tuesday night at John Sessions Stadium.

Dorsey, a junior college transfer from Gulf Coast State College, entered after 5.1 innings from starter Conner Whittaker. After tying the game against Dorsey in the sixth inning, Jacksonville struck out nine times over the final three innings.

Cam Smith had three hits against the Dolphins, including a double in the ninth inning. James Tibbs walked and Jaime Ferrer had the game-winning RBI single. FSU also scored on a wild pitch and a sacrifice fly in the final frame.

Florida State opened the scoring with a pair of runs in the first inning on a Daniel Cantu single. Sophomores DeAmez Ross and Smith singled before Tibbs walked, loading the bases for Cantu's one-out single. FSU has scored in the opening frame in all three games to begin the season.

Whittaker did not allow a base runner over the first three innings before the Dolphins got on the board in the fourth. Jacksonville singled, stole second and moved to third on an error before a sacrifice fly scored leadoff hitter Will Gale.

FSU answered with a pair of runs in the fifth, again from the top of the order. Ross drew a walk and stole second base; Smith singled to put runners on the corners and Tibbs singled to plate Ross. Smith made the score 4-1 Florida State on Ferrer's sacrifice fly.

The Dolphins started the fifth inning with a single and walk before Whittaker retired the next three batters to maintain FSU's margin. Jacksonville did tie the game with three runs in the sixth inning, but shortstop Alex Lodise retired the go-ahead run at the plate to end the inning with the score tied at 4-4.

Jacksonville's only two runners against Dorsey in the final three innings came on a pair of walks. Dorsey's final line was 3.2 innings, 1 earned run on 2 hits and 10 strikeouts.

Noles Complete Sweep with 20-7 Win.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Florida State (6-0) completed its second sweep of the season over Western Carolina (3-4) with a final score of 20-7 at Dick Howser Stadium Sunday afternoon. The bats continued to stay hot as James Tibbs had Florida State's first multi-home run game of the season and four players had multi-hit games.

Relief pitcher Noah Short (1-0) entered in the first inning and held Western Carolina to two runs, limiting what could have been a bigger inning after the first three Catamount hitters reached base. Freshman Matt Sauser entered the game in the second frame, pitching 3.0 innings, allowing three hits and one earned run while striking out four.

Like it did Friday night, Florida State answered Western Carolina with four runs of its own in the first inning and never looked back. FSU built its lead to 11-2 on Tibbs' grand slam in the third inning, his second grand slam of the season.

Second baseman Drew Faurot was 3-for-4 with a double and four RBI in the game. For the weekend, Faurot finished 8-for-11 with six extra base hits, seven RBI and six runs scored.

Conner Whittaker allowed two runs in 6.0 innings with eight strikeouts for his first victory of the year. Ben Barrett tossed the final three innings for his first career save.

Smith singled in his first three plate appearances before his eighth-inning home run. Tibbs hit a home run in the first inning to plate Smith and went back-to-back with Smith in the eighth inning.

No. 12 Noles Win Pitchers' Duel vs. Stetson.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - No. 12 Florida State (19-0) defeated Stetson (13-9) in the midweek pitchers' duel with a 1-0 win on Tuesday evening at Dick Howser Stadium. James Tibbs III's sacrifice fly to deep center sent Max Williams home for the game winning run in the bottom of the eighth inning.

Florida State last earned a 1-0 win in Omaha at the 2019 College World Series against Arkansas in the first game of the tournament. Nander De Sedas hit a sacrifice fly into right in the top of the ninth to score Carter Smith for the game's lone run.

The Seminoles pitching staff combined for 12 strikeouts and only gave up two hits on the night for the first time since February 24, 2023 at No. 8 TCU. All seven pitchers recorded a strikeout.

John Abraham earned his first collegiate win of his career off of his most complete outing, sending two batters down on strikes before working through the eighth inning to set the save up for Carson Dorsey, his second in as many appearances.

Hudson Rowan pitched a career-high 2.0 innings and gave up no hits in his sixth relief outing of the season. The freshman also sat down four batters to set a new best for the left-hander.

One of the nation's leaders in doubles added to his tally as Drew Faurot crushed an early double into left field. This marked his 13th double of the season, one away from taking joint possession of the lead.

SCORING SUMMARY:

B8 | SU 0, FSU 1 Tibbs sacrifice fly, M. Williams scored

OF NOTE:

FSU improved to 19-0 on the season and have won 21 straight dating to last season. The 19-0 start is the second-best in school history while the 21-game win streak is tied for the fourth-longest in program history.
Pitcher Brady Louck became the second freshman to start this season for FSU - position player or pitcher.
Drew Faurot doubled in his first at-bat, his 13th of the year. He entered Tuesday second nationally and first in the ACC in doubles.
Relief pitcher Noah Short struck out two batters and now has 100 strikeouts for his career.

James Tibbs III had FSU's lone RBI. He leads the Noles and is top-10 nationally with 33 on the season.
Carson Dorsey earned his second save of the season in the ninth inning. Dorsey has a win and two saves in his last three appearances.

Arnold Shines Again in Doubleheader at Clemson.

CLEMSON, S.C. - Sophomore Jamie Arnold allowed one run and three hits while striking out nine Clemson hitters Saturday afternoon at Doug Kingsmore Stadium. Arnold has allowed just two earned runs over 34.2 innings this season, with 53 strikeouts.

No. 12 FSU dropped both games of the doubleheader with No. 4 Clemson, 15-5 and 9-8. The Seminoles (19-2) entered the series with the Tigers (21-2) undefeated on the season.

In game two against the Tigers, Arnold walked the first two batters and the Tigers took an early 1-0 lead on the left-hander. Clemson tallied just three more baserunners against Arnold - a third-inning single, a fifth-inning hit batter and a double in the seventh inning. Arnold's 7.0 innings and 110 pitches were career highs and the most for a Seminole this season.

Florida State hit a season-high five home runs in the second game at Clemson - one each from Daniel Cantu, Cam Smith, Max Williams, Jaime Ferrer and Marco Dinges. Ferrer and Alex Lodise hit home runs in game one.

OF NOTE:

Jaime Ferrer hit home runs in both ends of the doubleheader Saturday - a first-inning grand slam in game one and a solo home run in game two. Ferrer now leads FSU with nine home runs on the season.
Ferrer's three hits in game two were a season high.
FSU's four grand slams on the season are three more than last season.
Jamie Arnold pitched a career-high 7.0 innings, the longest outing for a Seminole this year. He has allowed just two earned runs in 34.2 innings pitched (0.52 ERA).
FSU's streak of six consecutive games without an error ended in game one. The Noles' six-game streak tied a school record.
Cam Smith drew a walk in game one and was 2-for-5 in game two to extend his on-base streak to 31 games. Ferrer has reached safely in 27 straight games.
FSU's five home runs in game two were the Noles most in a game since 2021 (five vs. Wake Forest).

Smith and Lodise both homered in the sixth inning Sunday. Smith extended his on-base streak to 32 games.
Max Williams hit a two-run single to begin the scoring. It was his third two-RBI game of the season and second of the weekend.

Errors Prove Costly in Loss vs. Louisville.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - No. 17 Florida State (21-4, 4-4 ACC) fell to Louisville (17-10, 3-5 ACC) 5-2 Friday night at Dick Howser Stadium to even the series at one game a piece.

Four costly errors got the best of the Seminoles early, leading to four of the Cardinals five runs. Louisville took an early 3-0 lead in the top of the second inning off the bat of Logan Beard, hitting a two-run home run deep into right-center field.

FSU rallied late in the ninth inning; trailing 5-1, FSU earned three singles to plate a run and bring the tying run to the plate, but a ground out to second base ended the game.

The Noles were led offensively by Marco Dinges, who had a great day at the plate as the Seminoles designated hitter. Dinges accounted for nearly half of the Seminoles team hits going 3-for-4, including a triple, and scored a run for the Noles.

Jamie Arnold (5-1) had his seventh start of the season for the Noles. Arnold pitched 6.0 innings, giving up five runs, one of which was earned, four hits, two walks, and struck out seven in the loss. He entered Friday as the nation's ERA leader at 0.52; that now sits at 0.66 after four of Louisville's runs were unearned.

T1 | UL 1, FSU 0 Rose scored on wild pitch
T2 | UL 3, FSU 0 Beard home run, Kilen scored
T5 | UL 4, FSU 0 Rose scored on a throwing error

Arnold, Ferrer Power Noles at Boston College.

BRIGHTON, Mass. - Sophomore Jamie Arnold allowed two earned runs in 7.0 innings to keep his season ERA under 1.00 and Jaime Ferrer launched a pair of home runs in Florida State's 12-4 win at Boston College Friday afternoon. The Seminoles improved to 25-4 overall and 6-4 in the ACC, while the Eagles dropped to 16-12 and 5-8 in the league.

Arnold, who was named to the midseason Golden Spikes Award watch list, is now 6-1 with a 0.94 ERA after matching a career high with 7.0 innings pitched. He added nine strikeouts and did not allow a run after a three-run home run gave the Eagles the lead in the third inning.

Ferrer answered with a solo home run, plated two runs on a two-out error that tied the game at 3-3 and added a three-run home run to push the FSU lead to 10-3 in the sixth inning. It was Ferrer's second career multi-home run game, with the first coming at TCU last season.

Ferrer's 11 home runs are second-most on the team and the most in a season for the third-year Seminole.

Eight of FSU's nine starters had at least one hit, and all nine reached safely. James Tibbs, Marco Dinges and Drew Faurot had a pair of hits, with Faurot hitting a solo home run in the ninth inning, his fourth of the season. Tibbs and Ferrer are each hitting .429 over 10 ACC games this season.

Noah Short and Connor Hults pitched 1.0 innings in relief of Arnold.

Five-Run Seventh Leads Noles to Series Win at BC.

BRIGHTON, Mass. - Florida State scored five runs in the seventh inning to defeat Boston College, 9-2, Sunday afternoon at the Harrington Athletics Village. FSU improved to 26-5 and has won three of four ACC series on the season; the Eagles fell to 17-13 and 6-9 in the conference.

James Tibbs III hit a pair of bases-loaded doubles, finishing 2-for-5 with five RBI in the contest. Over his six-game hitting streak, Tibbs is hitting 15-for-25 with five doubles, three home runs and 14 RBI.

Carson Dorsey started for the Seminoles, allowing one run on one hit with three strikeouts over 5.0 innings. After Boston College hit a double to begin the game, Dorsey did not allow another hit as BC took a 1-0 lead in the first.

FSU hit three singles in the fifth inning, capped by Alex Lodise's game-tying single. Boston College re-took the lead on a bases loaded hit by pitch in the sixth, one of four Eagles' batters plunked by FSU pitching.

Freshman Cal Fisher tied the game with a solo home run in the seventh inning, his third of the year. The Noles took the lead later in the frame when Cam Smith drew a bases loaded walk and James Tibbs followed with a double to center field to score two more runs.

Tibbs' three-run double in the eighth inning was again hit to the outfield wall, bouncing off the top just inches from his third grand slam of the year.

Brennen Oxford earned his first win of the year with 3.1 scoreless innings out of the bullpen.

Dorsey struck out three batters in the no-decision; he also had his team-high fourth pick-off of the year.
Freshman Cal Fisher earned his first career start at second base. He hit a game-tying home run with one out in the seventh inning, the first of FSU's five runs in the frame. Fisher has three home runs on the year and is FSU's only freshman position player to start a game this year.
James Tibbs III hit two bases-loaded doubles, finishing with five RBI. Over his season-high six-game hitting streak, Tibbs is hitting .600 (15-for-25) with five doubles, three home runs, 14 RBI, seven runs scored and just one strikeout. In ACC play, Tibbs is hitting .422 with eight extra-base hits and 16 RBI.
After four games out of the lineup, shortstop Alex Lodise hit a game-tying RBI single for the second straight game. He had two hits and finished with five over his two games against the Eagles.

Noles Improve to 30-5, Complete Rivalry Week Sweep.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - No. 10-ranked Florida State (30-5, 10-5) completed a weekend sweep of Miami (16-19, 6-12 ACC) with a 6-4 win Saturday afternoon at Dick Howser Stadium. The victory capped a 4-0 week against in-state rivals after beating Florida Tuesday night and winning the first two games against the Hurricanes.

Cam Smith led the way offensively for the Seminoles. The sophomore from Lake Worth, Florida, hit 2-for-4 with an RBI double and a two-run home run, his ninth of the year. FSU's first six hits of the game went for extra-bases, with two doubles from Max Williams, Smith's double and home run and doubles from Alex Lodise and James Tibbs.

Smith's home run gave FSU a 5-2 lead in the third inning; Marco Dinges capped FSU's scoring with a solo home run in the bottom of the eighth inning.

Andrew Armstrong improved to 5-0 with 4.1 innings of relief. The senior allowed three hits and one run over 65 pitches. Connor Hults needed just one pitch to escape a jam in the top of the ninth, forcing a lineout to Lodise at shortstop to strand a pair of runners after Miami had scored earlier in the inning to cut the lead to 6-4.

Carson Dorsey pitched 3.2 innings and allowed three runs, his second start of the year. John Abraham struck out the first batter he faced to end a threat in the fourth inning. Armstrong entered with two runners on base in the fifth inning and forced a double play as Cal Fisher made a diving stop up the middle, flipped to Lodise who completed the throw to Daniel Cantu at first base.

Florida State swept Florida and Miami in the same season for the first time since 1960. Dick Howser Stadium hosted 19,157 fans this weekend, the largest three-game attendance in stadium history.

Arnold K's 12 But Noles Fall at No. 12 Wake Forest.

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. - Despite a career-high 12 strikeouts from Jamie Arnold, No. 8 Florida State fell 5-4 Friday evening at No. 12 Wake Forest. The Demon Deacons scored a pair of runs in the eighth inning to break a 3-3 tie.

Arnold struck out 12 batters in 5.2 innings, matching his career-high strikeouts from earlier this season vs. Notre Dame. Wake Forest countered with Chase Burns, a projected top pick in this summer's MLB Draft, who struck out eight batters in a season-low 5.0 innings. Both pitchers allowed three runs.

Max Williams was 3-for-5 for Florida State, his fifth consecutive multi-hit game, including a leadoff home run off Burns on the second pitch of the game. Cam Smith and Daniel Cantu added two hits for the Seminoles.

Tied 1-1 in the fifth inning, Jaxson West gave FSU the lead with a sacrifice fly, followed by Marco Dinges' RBI single. Dinges added an RBI groundout in the ninth after Wake scored a pair of runs in the eighth inning, but Cole Roland earned his first save of the year with a strikeout to end the contest with Jordan Williams standing on second base.

Noles Split Doubleheader at Wake Forest.

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. - No. 8 Florida State split a doubleheader at No. 12 Wake Forest, winning the opener 9-6 before falling in the nightcap, 10-9. Both games were decided with the winning run in the ninth inning.

In game one, FSU hit home runs in the seventh, eighth and ninth innings to cement the victory. After Wake Forest tied the game with a pair of home runs of their own in the eighth inning, Marco Dinges hit the go-ahead double that scored James Tibbs one batter before Jaime Ferrer's two-run home run provided the final margin.

In game two, Daniel Cantu had his first career multi-home run game, hitting a grand slam in the third inning and a game-tying solo home run to start the ninth inning. Wake Forest scored a run in the bottom of the frame for the walk-off victory.

Four-Run First Enough as Noles Beat No. 6 Duke.

DURHAM, N.C. - Powered by Jaime Ferrer's three-run home run, No. 10 Florida State scored four runs in the first inning to beat No. 6 Duke, 4-2, Friday evening at Jack Coombs Field. Starting pitcher Jamie Arnold improved to 8-1 with another nine-strikeout performance, while Brennen Oxford and Connor Hults combined for four scoreless innings to preserve the lead.

Ferrer's home run came in his first at-bat after he missed his first career game Tuesday night. Ferrer has 13 home runs on the season, a career-high.

The Blue Devils scored runs in the first and third innings, but Arnold, Oxford and Hults kept Duke off the board over the final six frames. Arnold threw 103 pitches over 5.0 innings, with nine strikeouts and five hits allowed. Oxford pitched 3.1 innings with five strikeouts, while Hults earned his third save of the season. Hults entered with runners on the corners and one out in the ninth, forcing a lineout and strikeout to end the game.

Cam Smith singled and scored on Marco Dinges' single in the first inning, pushing his on-base streak to 51 games. He also laid out for the second out in the ninth inning, snagging a ball that likely would have tied the game down the left-field line for Duke.

SCORING SUMMARY:

T1 | FSU 1, DU 0 Dinges singled, Smith scored
T1 | FSU 4, DU 0 Ferrer home run (13th, 409 ft), Tibbs and Dinges scored
B1 | FSU 4, DU 1 Gracia singled, Morris scored
B3 | FSU 4, DU 2 Bravo sacrifice fly, Stone scored

OF NOTE:

Cam Smith reached on an infield single in the first inning, extending his on-base streak to 51 games, the 10th-longest streak in FSU history.
Jaime Ferrer hit a three-run home run in the first inning, his career-best 13th of the season. Ferrer is second on the team in home runs and leads FSU with eight home runs in ACC games.
Florida State has hit a home run in 16 consecutive games, tied for the second-longest streak in school history and two behind the school record of 18 in 1983. The Noles have a home run in 37 of 41 games this year.
Marco Dinges plated Smith with a single in the first inning, pushing his on-base streak to 14 games, a career best.
Ferrer and Dinges lead FSU with active five-game hitting streaks.
Connor Hults earned his third save of the season, tying Brennen Oxford and Carson Dorsey for the team lead.
Daniel Cantu was hit by a pitch for the sixth time this year and 44th time in his career. Cantu began the weekend 23rd among active players in career HBP.
Alex Lodise dropped down his sixth sacrifice bunt of the year. He has six of FSU's 14 on the season.
Smith's diving catch in the ninth inning ended Ben Miller's hitting streak at 18 games. He was 0-for-5 Friday after entering second in the country with a .444 batting average.

Noles Hold Off No. 6 Duke, Clinch Series.

DURHAM, N.C. - No. 10 Florida State (34-8, 13-7 ACC) got three home runs from its offense and a stellar performance from starting pitcher Carson Dorsey to beat No. 6 Duke (29-14, 13-10), 7-6, Saturday afternoon at Jack Coombs Field. Freshman John Abraham earned his first career save with two outs in the ninth inning, entering with runners on second and third and FSU leading by a run.

Dorsey made his fourth start of the season, and FSU improved to 4-0 in those games. Dorsey allowed two runs on seven hits over 6.0 innings and struck out eight batters over 102 pitches.

FSU led 7-2 when Dorsey exited, but the Blue Devils clawed back with three runs in the eighth inning and a leadoff home run in the ninth. Duke had runners on second and third when Abraham relieved Andrew Armstrong; Abraham forced a pop-up and a hard line drive right to second baseman Cal Fisher to secure the win.

Fisher opened the scoring with a solo home run in the third inning, his fourth of the year. Jaime Ferrer homered for the second straight game and Marco Dinges gave FSU a 5-2 lead with a three-run homer in the fifth inning, his 11th of the year.

Cam Smith had two hits and drew two walks to extend his on-base streak to 52 games, the ninth-longest in program history.

SCORING SUMMARY:

T3 | FSU 1, Duke 0 Fisher home run (4th, 410 ft)
T4 | FSU 2, Duke 0 Ferrer home run (14th)
B4 | FSU 2, Duke 2 Obee home run, Stone scored

Starting pitcher Carson Dorsey picked off a runner in the first inning, his team-high fifth of the year. He has five of FSU's nine on the season.
Florida State improved to 4-0 in Dorsey's starts this season, all coming in the last four weeks against ACC competition. Dorsey earned his first win as a starter.
Freshman Cal Fisher hit his fourth home run of the season to give FSU a 1-0 lead. The Seminoles have hit a home run in 17 consecutive games, the second-longest streak in school history and one shy of the school record set in 1983. FSU has a home run in 38 of 42 games this season.
Fisher also scored on Alex Lodise's double, his first career game with multiple runs.
Cam Smith was 2-for-3 with an RBI single and a double that was just inches from being a home run; Smith has a 52-game on-base streak, tied for the 9th-longest in FSU history (Jerrod Brown, 2002-03).

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - No. 7 Florida State (34-10,13-9 ACC) fell to No. 20 NC State (26-17,13-9 ACC) 8-7 Friday night at Dick Howser Stadium to take game one of their three-game series.

The Noles got on the board early after a Cam Smith walk led to a James Tibbs RBI double in the bottom of the first inning, putting FSU up 1-0. NC State responded in the top of the second scoring four runs and taking a 4-1 advantage.

Coming out of a 1 hour and 40-minute weather delay, play resumed in the bottom of the third inning and the bats came out hot for the Noles with Tibbs and Marco Dinges hitting back-to-back home runs making the score 6-5 NC State after three.

Down three runs in the bottom of the eighth, Jaime Ferrer delivered a two-run single to cut the deficit to just one heading into the ninth inning.

The Wolfpack held FSU scoreless in the bottom of the ninth to hang on for the 8-7 victory.

In relief, Brennen Oxford led the way for the Noles pitching 3.2 innings and allowing just one run while striking out five.

Offensively, the Noles tallied seven hits, two of those courtesy of Tibbs who finished the game 2-4 with three RBIs and two runs scored.

Noles Beat No. 20 NC State, 8-1.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - After a cancellation of game two, No. 7 Florida State (35-10, 14-9 ACC) ended the weekend with a series split against No. 20 NC State (26-18,13-10 ACC) winning Sunday afternoon's contest 8-1 at Dick Howser Stadium.

FSU sent eight batters to the plate in a first-inning that featured a Cam Smith two-run home run and an Alex Lodise double, giving the Noles an early 4-0 lead.

With a 5-1 lead in the top of the sixth, FSU turned to Connor Hults in relief of Connor Dorsey to work out of a two-out bases-loaded jam. The Noles got out of the inning unscathed with the help of a spectacular catch in the outfield by DeAmez Ross, one of a handful of great defensive plays from the Seminole defense.

FSU plated three runs in the bottom of the sixth, extending their lead to 8-1.

After NC State scored a run in the second inning, Dorsey and Hults combined to keep the Wolfpack off the board the remainder of the game.

Lodise had a day at the dish, going 2-for-4 with two doubles and an RBI.

In his fifth start, Dorsey pitched 5.2 innings, allowed just one run, and improved his record to 4-2 on the season. Hults finished the remainder of the game out of the bullpen, pitching 3.1 innings and striking out four in the win.

SCORING SUMMARY:

B1 | NCST 0, FSU 2 Smith home run (10th, 428 ft), M. Williams home run
B1 | NCST 0, FSU 3 Cantu reached on fielder's choice, Dinges scored
B1 | NCST 0, FSU 4 Lodise doubled, Ferrer scored
T2 | NCST 1, FSU 4 C. Nixon sacrifice fly, L. Nixon scored
B4 | NCST 1, FSU 5 Fisher home run (5th, 404 ft)
B6 | NCST 1, FSU 6 Smith reached on fielder's choice, Lodise scored
B6 | NCST 1, FSU 7 Tibbs walked, Fisher scored
B6 | NCST 1, FSU 8 Dinges sacrifice fly, Ross scored

OF NOTE:

Third baseman Cam Smith needed just one pitch to extend two of FSU's longest streaks - he hit a 428-foot home run in the first inning, his 10th of the year, to push his on-base streak to 55 games, tied with Tyler Holt (2008) for the 7th-longest in FSU history.
Smith's home run was also the 20th consecutive game FSU has hit a homer, extending the longest streak in school history. FSU has hit a home run in 41 of 45 games in 2024.
Florida State improved to 5-0 in Carson Dorsey's starts. Dorsey pitched 5.2 innings and allowed just one earned run, matching his low in a start.
Freshman Cal Fisher hit his fifth home run of the season; he is the only Seminole freshman with a home run this year. Fisher also drew three walks and scored two runs, both career highs.
Fisher entered Sunday with five walks on the season; the three walks are tied for the team-high this year (Ferrer, Ross, Tibbs 2x).
Alex Lodise hit his 9th and 10th doubles of the year, the fifth Seminole with double-figure doubles. It was Lodise's first game as a Seminole with two doubles. Lodise also stole his fourth base of the year.
James Tibbs drew a bases-loaded walk in the sixth inning, his 70th RBI of the season, most in the ACC.
Marco Dinges doubled and hit a sacrifice fly; Dinges has nine doubles on the year and eight sacrifice flies, most on the team and a top-10 total nationally.

Trippel Walk-Off Hero vs. Jacksonville.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla - No. 8 Florida State (36-10) earned a 7-6 walk off victory over Jacksonville (22-24) off Lance Trippel's single down the left-field line to score the winning run on Tuesday evening at Dick Howser Stadium. The Seminoles sweep Jacksonville for the first time since 2018 and holds a 14-0 record over in-state opponents this season.

FSU's first lead of the game came off Trippel's walk-off single. The last time Florida State earned its first lead on the final play came in the upset victory over No. 1 Wake Forest on May 13, 2023, when Jordan Williams hit a single into right center to score Nander De Sedas from second in a 4-3 win.

Williams earned his first start of the year Tuesday and recorded his first multi-hit game of the season with two singles, his first hit allowed DeAmez Ross to tattoo his first home run of the season over the right field wall to cut the early deficit to one.

Relief pitchers Joe Charles and Brennen Oxford each sat down three batters in 2.0+ inning efforts with no extra base hits conceded between the two. John Abraham took the victory off the back of 2.0 innings and allowed just one hit in extra innings.

Down three in the eighth, Cam Smith extended his 56 game on-base streak with a walk before Marco Dinges and pinch hitter Jaime Ferrer were walked to load the bases on two outs. Alex Lodise blooped a single into right field to score one run before a foul out to the catcher ended the frame.

The Seminoles loaded the bases off three walks in the ninth before a wild pitch scored Drew Faurot and a sacrifice fly from Dinges allowed Ross to sprint home and tie the game.

Trippel's 11th-inning single marked his first RBI of the season and third of his collegiate career.

SCORING SUMMARY:

T2 | JU 1, FSU 0 Edmonds singled, Hinrikus scored
T2 | JU 2, FSU 0 Delisi doubled, Edmonds scored
B2 | JU 2, FSU 1 Lodise grounded out, Dinges scored
T3 | JU 4, FSU 1 Prescott singled, Brewer & Hinrikus scored

Jordan Williams earned his first start of the season. He tied a career high with two hits and stole his 10th base of the year, a team high.
Cam Smith drew walks in the eighth, ninth and 11th innings, extending his on-base streak to 56 games, the seventh-longest in FSU history. It matches the latest this season Smith extended his on-base streak (an eighth-inning single vs. Stetson). The latest in the streak for Smith was a ninth-inning single at Louisville on May 19, 2023.
Smith's on-base streak has spanned a full calendar year; the last time he was held off the basepaths was May 5, 2023 in a win vs. Mercer.
Smith scored his team-high 59th and 60th runs of the year; Smith's three walks were a career high and tied for the most by a Seminole this season.
Alex Lodise had his eighth multi-RBI game of the season; Ross had his fourth.

Arnold K's 17 at Pittsburgh.

PITTSBURGH, Pa. - Starting pitcher Jamie Arnold struck out 17 batters Friday at Pitt - the most for a Seminole since 1987 - but No. 8 Florida State (36-11) fell to Pitt (22-25) 1-0 at Charles L. Cost Field. A Pittsburgh home run in the sixth inning was the difference in the game.

Arnold, who began Friday seventh in the country in strikeouts, put together the ninth 17-strikeout performance in FSU history and the first since Richie Lewis struck out 20 vs. Charlotte in 1987. He needed just 98 pitches and 7.0 innings for his 17 strikeouts, the most for an ACC pitcher since Georgia Tech's Connor Thomas had 18 vs. Wake Forest in 2018.

Arnold struck out at least two hitters in each of his seven innings.

Pitt's Luke Cantwell hit a solo home run with two outs in the sixth inning to provide the games' lone run. It came one pitch after Arnold's 15th strikeout of the contest.

The Panthers' Ryan Andrade matched Arnold's 7.0 innings, allowing three hits and three walks with eight strikeouts.

FSU's best chance to score came in the seventh inning, when Jaime Ferrer singled and reached third base with one out before Andrade got a strikeout and pop out to strand the runner.

SCORING SUMMARY:

B6 | FSU 0, Pitt 1 Cantwell home run

OF NOTE:

Jamie Arnold struck out 17 batters, the most for a Seminole since 1987 and the ninth-most in a game in program history. The last ACC pitcher with 17 strikeouts in a game was Connor Thomas of Georgia Tech in 2018.
Arnold has 118 strikeouts on the season; he entered Friday seventh nationally in strikeouts.
Cam Smith's 56-game on-base streak ended. He was 0-for-3 Friday.
FSU's school-record 21-game streak with a home run ended Friday.
FSU was shut out for the first time this year.

Arnold Improves to 9-3 in Win vs. Georgia Tech.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Three solo home runs launched No. 10 Florida State (38-13, 16-11 ACC) over Georgia Tech (30-20, 14-14 ACC), winning Thursday evening's contest 8-3 at Dick Howser Stadium to take game one of the three-game series.

FSU's first hit came in the bottom of the third inning off the bat of Alex Lodise, hitting a solo home run to score the game's first run, giving the Noles a 1-0 lead.

Both teams scored in the fourth, starting with Georgia Tech answering the solo shot with a two-run single. Florida State quickly returned to work in the bottom of the inning, loading the bases and scoring another run to tie the game 2-2.

Drew Faurot broke the tie in the fifth hitting with his fifth home run for the Noles. Cam Smith added a third solo shot for FSU in the sixth. The Noles scored another run in the inning to take a 5-2 lead.

Georgia Tech plated a run and loaded the bases in the seventh. FSU called on Brennen Oxford in relief for Jamie Arnold; Oxford got out of the bases-loaded jam forcing a line-out and a strikeout to end the inning, keeping FSU on top 5-3.

FSU added some insurance in the eighth, taking advantage of a Yellow Jackets error and a Max Williams two-RBI double to extend their lead 8-3.

Smith led the way for the Noles recording his ninth three-hit game of the season and scored two runs in the victory.

In his 14th start, Arnold pitched 6.1 innings, allowed three earned runs, and struck out six. He improved his record to 9-3. Oxford finished the remainder of the game pitching 2.2 innings and allowed zero runs in his 23rd appearance of the season.

Wake Forest (38-20) took a 3-0 lead in the top of the third inning, but the Seminoles answered immediately with three of their own in the bottom of the inning. Faurot's two-run single in the third inning gave FSU a lead they would not relinquish.

After a solo home run in the sixth inning, Williams' ninth home run of the year in the bottom of the frame extended FSU's lead to three runs. The teams traded two runs in the seventh and eighth innings before Whittaker closed things out for FSU's 19th save of the year, most in the conference.

From the FSU Website, seminoles.com.

Carson Dorsey Leads Noles in Regional Opener vs. Stetson.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Starting pitcher Carson Dorsey lifted 1-seed Florida State (43-15) past 4-seed Stetson (40-21) in the Tallahassee Regional opener Friday afternoon, a 7-2 Seminole victory. Dorsey threw a career-high 8.2 innings - the most for a Seminole since 2018 - and allowed just one earned run with seven strikeouts. The Dick Howser Stadium crowd of 4,153 gave the junior multiple standing ovations, culminating in a hat-tip after his 121st and final pitch.

Brennen Oxford needed just three pitches to strike out Yohann Dessureault to end the game, FSU's fourth consecutive Regional-opening victory.

Florida State improved to 8-2 in Dorsey's 10 starts this season. The junior college transfer from Panama City is now 6-4 on the season.

After a 1-2-3 first inning from Dorsey, Max Williams hit a lead-off home run in the bottom of the inning against former Seminole Dylan Jacobs (1-2), his 10th of the season and second lead-off homer. Daniel Cantu followed with a solo home run in the bottom of the second inning, his eighth of the year.

Stetson got on the board on the strength of three hits, but an RBI double ended with Jaime Ferrer throwing out Kyle Jones at the plate as the tying run. Ferrer hit an RBI single in the bottom of the inning to get the run back.

The noon start and overhead sun caused havoc for both teams, with Alex Lodise scoring two runs on a high fly that Stetson lost in left field, while the Hatters' second run came when FSU could not field a pop-up from Gio Cueto.

FSU added two more runs in the seventh inning, loading the bases with no outs before an RBI groundout from Cantu and a sacrifice fly from Lodise.

Dorsey powered through his previous high of 6.0 innings pitched, returning for the seventh and eighth innings to raucous cheers from the Howser faithful. Dorsey needed just six pitches to get out of the eighth inning and was pulled from the game only after a two-out single in the bottom of the ninth.

B2 | Stetson 0, FSU 2 Cantu home run (8th, 364 ft)

Arnold, Smith Lead Noles Past UCF.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Behind another pitching gem - this time from staff ace Jamie Arnold - Florida State improved to 2-0 in the Tallahassee Regional with a 5-2 win over UCF Saturday night at Dick Howser Stadium. Arnold struck out 12 batters and allowed just two runs over 7.0 innings, while the FSU offense mashed 11 hits and scored all five runs in the first four innings.

Florida State takes a 44-15 record into Sunday's Regional Final against either UCF or Stetson. The Knights (36-20) will play the Hatters at noon Sunday, with the winner advancing to face the Seminoles Sunday evening.

Arnold improved to 11-3 with his victory against the Knights, the most for a Seminole since 2012. Arnold's 146 strikeouts on the season are seventh-most in FSU history and the most for a Nole since 2000.

Cam Smith and Marco Dinges each had three hits, with Smith hitting a two-run home run to double FSU's lead to 4-0 in the fourth inning. Smith has 96 hits on the season, most for a Nole since 2012.

Dinges plated Max Williams with a single in the third inning, FSU's third hit of the inning. Daniel Cantu pushed his hitting streak to a career-high 12 games with an RBI single later in the frame.

After Smith's 15th home run of the season, Dinges singled and scored on the first of Jaime Ferrer's two doubles.

The Knights got on the board in the bottom of the fourth after a hit batter scored on a Jack Zyska double. In the seventh, UCF loaded the bases against Arnold but scored just one run on a double play before an inning-ending groundout.

Arnold exited after a curtain call from the Howser faithful, making way for Brennen Oxford. The senior from Durham, New Hampshire, struck out four batters over the final 2.0 innings to earn his sixth save of the season.

SCORING SUMMARY:

T3 | FSU 1, UCF 0 Dinges singled, M. Williams scored
T3 | FSU 2, UCF 0 Cantu singled, Smith scored

Record-Setting Offense Powers Noles in Game 1.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Paced by a season-high 24 runs, Florida State (46-15) cruised to a 24-4 victory over UConn (35-25) in Game 1 of the Tallahassee Super Regional at Dick Howser Stadium on Friday afternoon.

FSU's 24 runs were the most recorded in NCAA Super Regional history and the 20-run margin of victory is also the highest ever in the Super Regional round. Florida State held both previous records, defeating Sam Houston State in 2017 by 19 runs (19-0) and scoring 23 vs. Texas A&M in 2011, a 23-9 victory.

The Seminoles scored eight unanswered runs in the first three innings, including back-to-back home runs from Marco Dinges and Jaime Ferrer in the bottom of the first, for an early 3-0 lead.

Alex Lodise opened the bottom of the second with a single before stealing second for his fifth stolen base of the season. Max Williams delivered a two-run shot over the right field fence, extending the lead to 5-0.

Cam Smith and James Tibbs both had milestone hits in the sixth inning, with Smith connecting on his 100th of the season and Tibbs following with the 200th of his career. FSU scored six runs in the frame and followed that with nine runs in the seventh inning, matching a season high.

Carson Doresy improved to 7-4 with 5.1 innings of one-run ball. After pitching 8.2 innings last week vs. Stetson to begin the NCAA Tournament, Dorsey has allowed just two earned runs in 14.0 innings this postseason.

SCORING SUMMARY:

Noles Respond, Beat Virginia to Extend Season.

OMAHA, Neb. - Behind a pair of home runs from Jaime Ferrer and seven innings from starter Carson Dorsey, No. 8 Florida State (48-16) beat No. 12 Virginia (46-17) 7-3 Sunday afternoon at Charles Schwab Field Omaha.

Ferrer became the first player since 1998 with multiple four-RBI games in the College World Series, following up his performance vs. No. 1 Tennessee (two-run home run, two-run double) with a solo home run and three-run home run Sunday vs. the Cavaliers. Ferrer is the seventh Seminole and first since 2000 with three home runs in a single CWS.

Dorsey continued a torrid run in the postseason, allowing three runs over 7.0 innings with seven strikeouts. In 21.0 innings in the NCAA Tournament, Dorsey has a 2.14 ERA with 20 strikeouts. For the season, FSU is 9-2 in his 11 starts, including a 3-0 mark in the postseason.

James Tibbs drew a bases loaded walk against Jay Woolfolk to plate FSU's first run in the third inning. In the fourth, Ferrer connected for a solo home run on the first pitch of the inning to double the Seminole lead.

The Cavalier bullpen retired FSU's first two hitters of the fifth inning before Cam Smith doubled, Tibbs was intentionally walked and Marco Dinges hit an RBI single. That set the stage for Ferrer's second home run of the game, a three-run blast that against doubled FSU's lead from 3-0 to 6-0.

Alex Lodise hit a solo home run to begin the sixth inning, his eighth of the year.

Virginia scored a pair of runs in the seventh inning and another in the eighth, but Brennen Oxford allowed just one hit over the final 2.0 innings to secure the Seminole victory.

Noles Stave Off Elimination - Again - With Victory Over No. 4 North Carolina.

OMAHA, Neb. - Behind 14 hits - including six in a four-run fifth inning - No. 8 Florida State beat No. 4 North Carolina, 9-5, to avoid elimination in the College World Series for the second consecutive game. Nine-hole hitter Jaxson West set a career high with four hits, including a ninth-inning home run, while Connor Hults improved to 3-1 with 4.1 scoreless innings.

The Seminoles (49-16) continue their nation's-best turnaround from a year ago and have now won 26 more games than the 2023 season. North Carolina finishes 48-16 after winning the ACC regular season title.

West and Max Williams hit back-to-back home runs in the ninth inning to provide the final margin. The pair combined for seven hits, four RBI and scored a pair of runs.

Florida State got a stellar performance from starting pitcher Andrew Armstrong. The senior was making his ninth start of the season but first appearance in the NCAA Tournament. Armstrong powered through an injury in the first inning to toss a season-best 4.1 innings, allowing three runs over five hits and exiting with a 7-1 lead.

FSU got on the board first with an RBI single from Drew Faurot in the second inning against Carolina starter Aidan Haugh (4-3). The Noles added two runs without a hit in the third inning on a Jaime Ferrer bases-loaded walk and Daniel Cantu's sacrifice fly.

In the fifth inning, FSU pounded out six hits to plate four runs, all on RBI singles. UNC answered with a four-spot of its own in the bottom of the inning, but Hults came in to limit the damage. Hults threw 57 pitches and lowered his season ERA to 3.89.

The score remained 7-5 until West and Williams - both sophomore transfers from Alabama - hit back-to-back home runs, extending FSU's home run streak to 18 games, the second-longest in school history. In the bottom of the ninth, Hults walked the leader batter before a fielder's choice, strikeout and groundout ended the contest.

T2 | FSU 1, UNC 0 Faurot singled, Ferrer scored
T3 | FSU 2, UNC 0 Ferrer walked, Smith scored
T3 | FSU 3, UNC 0 Cantu sacrifice fly, Tibbs scored

Florida State's 49 wins are its most since finishing 50-17 in 2012.
After not meeting in the regular season, Florida State met North Carolina for the first time this season in an elimination game on Tuesday. It was the fourth time the teams have met in the NCAA Tournament and second in the MCWS. The Noles are now 3-1 all-time against Tar Heels in the NCAA Tournament and 2-0 in the MCWS.
Florida State has won multiple games in a single trip to Omaha for the first time since 2012 and just the second time in its past six MCWS appearances. The Seminoles went 2-2 in 2012 and had three 1-2 seasons (2010, 2017 and 2019) and one winless trip to Omaha (2008) in the past 20 years.
With two home runs on Tuesday afternoon, Florida State has now hit 129 home runs this season, which ranks third-most in program history (146 in 1985; 131 in 1982). The Noles have also now hit a home run in 60 of the 65 games this season.
FSU has now hit a home run in 18 straight games, dating back to a May 11th contest at Pitt. The 18 game HR streak is tied for the second-longest streak in program history, trailing only the 21-game HR streak earlier this season and an 18-game HR streak in 1983.
Additionally, the Seminoles 76 home run improvement from last season is the largest improvement in the country, passing Austin Peay's 71-HR improvement from a season ago.
Florida State has outscored foes 89-30 in the third inning this year, including 9-1 in Omaha and 16-1 in its last seven games.
Florida State's 27 runs are its most ever through three games at the MCWS (24th appearance) (Previous high was 20 in 1999). The Seminoles 27 runs scored are the most of any ACC team in the MCWS (Clemson, 25 - 1996) and are the third-most since by any team since the move to Charles Schwab Field in 2011.
Florida State's 85 runs in seven games this NCAA Tournament (10.6 per game) are the most runs per game of any team this season in the tournament. Tennessee (10.3 runs per game) is the only other team averaging at least 10 runs per game in the postseason.
After leaving just three men on base in the win over Virginia, Florida State stranded 14 men on base in its win over North Carolina on Tuesday.
With nine walks on Tuesday, Florida State has now drawn 22 walks in Omaha, the most by any team through three games of the MCWS since Clemson drew 23 walks in 2002.
Florida State is 28-8 when scoring first.
The Seminoles moved to 45-11 when scoring five or more runs this season, including a 2-1 mark in this year's MCWS.
Drew Faurot put the Seminoles on the scoreboard in the top of the second inning, delivering an RBI single to center extending his on-base streak to 13 straight games.
With his walk in the third inning, Cam Smith has now reached base in 62 of FSU's 65 games this season, but despite not recording a hit he still ranks second nationally behind Tennessee's Christian Moore (106) with 104 hits this season.
Marco Dinges finished Tuesday with a 1-for-4 showing at the plate and now has 15 hits in this year's NCAA Tournament, tied with NC State's Alec Makarewicz and for the most by any player.
Marco Dinges was hit by a pitch and drew a walk today to extend his on-base streak to 17 straight games.
James Tibbs III drew a six-pitch walk in the third pushing his active team-leading on-base streak to 23 consecutive games, before recording his 18th double of the season in the top of the fifth.
Jaime Ferrer drew a bases-loaded walk in third innings and now leads all players with 16 RBI in the 2024 NCAA Tournament. The bases-loaded RBI walk was Jamie Ferrer's ninth RBI in this years MCWS. Since the move to Charles Schwab Field Omaha in 2011 only two players have had more RBIs in a single MCWS (Oregon State's Adley Rutschman had 13 in 2018 & Arkansas's Peyton Stovall had 10 in 2022).
Max Williams finished the day 3-for-5 with two singles and a home run to extend his on-base streak to 20 straight games and his hit streak to 10 consecutive contests. It was his seventh 3-hit game of the year while his home run was his 14th of the season and part of the eighth back-to-back home runs for the Seminoles this season.
Daniel Cantu opened the contest with a single in the second and an RBI single in the fifth to record his 21st multi-hit game of the season.
Sophomore Jaxson West collected a career-high four hits on Tuesday, recording three singles and his third home run of the season.
Jaxson West became just the second Florida State player to record a 4-hit game out of the 9-hole in the lineup in the MCWS, joining Ryan Barthelemy (4 hits vs. Stanford in 1999). His four hits match the most by a Florida State player in a MCWS game and is the first Seminole to do it since Buster Posey recorded 4 hits against Miami in 2008.
Jaxson West and Max Williams hit back-to-back home runs in the top of the ninth innings. It was the eighth time this season that Florida State had recorded back-to-back home run in a game.
West and Williams back-to-back home runs were also just the fourth time players have hit back-to-back homers at the MCWS since the move to Charles Schwab Field Omaha in 2011 (Florida's Wyatt Langford and Jac Caglianone in 2023, Ole Miss's TJ McCants, Calvin Harris and Justin Bench in 2022 and Florida State's Quince Nieporte and Cal Raleigh in 2017.
Back in 2017, Florida State's Quincy Nieporte and Cal Raleigh hit the first back-to-back homers in stadium history when the did it in the 9th inning vs. LSU (they actually did it on back-to-back pitches).
Andrew Armstrong matched his longest outing of the season tossing 4.1 innings allowing three runs on a season-high tying five hits with only one strikeout. The 4.1 innings pitched was the longest start since tossing 6.0 innings at Louisville on May 18 of last season.
Connor Whittaker had his shortest outing of the season, firing 0.1 innings of relief while allowing two runs on three hits.
Connor Hults earned his third win of the season, improving to 3-1 on the year after tossing a career-high 4.1 shutout innings of relief on Tuesday.
Today's win means Florida State will play in Game 11 on Wednesday at 2 p.m. CT against Tennessee. Florida State will be the home team.

Tennessee 7, Florida State 2
06/19/2024, CWS, Omaha, Neb.

From the FSU Website, seminoles.com.

2024 Season Ends in National Semifinals.

OMAHA, Neb. - No. 8 Florida State saw its 2024 campaign come to an end with a 7-2 loss to No. 1 Tennessee Wednesday at the College World Series. The Seminoles finish 49-17, a 26-win improvement from last season that culminated in a spot in the national semifinals for the first time since 2012.

Tennessee scored three runs in the first inning on a fielder's choice, a single and a failed pick off. The Vols added runs in the second, fourth and seventh inning before a ninth-inning solo home run capped the scoring.

Florida State's best chance early was in the third inning, when Jaxson West singled and Max Williams doubled to open the frame. But West was thrown out at the plate before an inning-ending double play thwarted FSU's scoring opportunity.

The Noles finally chased UT starting pitcher Zander Sechrist (5-1) in the seventh inning with back-to-back home runs from Daniel Cantu and Alex Lodise into the Volunteer bullpen in right field.

Freshman John Abraham (5-2) recorded one out in the first inning before veteran relievers Brennen Oxford (3.0, career-high 75 pitches) and Joe Charles (4.2 IP, five strikeouts, both career highs) entered in relief.

SCORING SUMMARY:

T1 | Tennessee 1, FSU 0 Amick reached on fielder's choice, Moore scored
T1 | Tennessee 2, FSU 0 Ensley singled, Amick scored
T1 | Tennessee 3, FSU 0 Dreiling scored on a throwing error
T2 | Tennessee 4, FSU 0 Burke singled, Moore scored
T4 | Tennessee 5, FSU 0 Moore tripled, Stark scored
T7 | Tennessee 6, FSU 0 Dreiling singled, Amick scored
B7 | Tennessee 6, FSU 1 Cantu home run (9th, 367 ft)
B7 | Tennessee 6, FSU 2 Lodise home run (9th, 359 ft)
T9 | Tennessee 7, FSU 2 Burke home run

OF NOTE:

A season after finishing last in the ACC and missing the NCAA Tournament for the first time in 45 seasons, Florida State will finish tied for third nationally after a 26-win turnaround from a season ago. The 26-win improvement is double the previous-best year-over-year in program history (+13 wins from 2001 to 2002).
Daniel Cantu and Alex Lodise hit back-to-back home runs in the seventh inning, the ninth of the year for both. FSU hit back-to-back home runs in consecutive games to end the year and nine times this season.
FSU's 131 home runs as a team are tied for the second-most in program history (1982, 74 games) and trail only the 1985 team's 146 (82 games).
FSU hit a home run in 19 consecutive games to end the season, the second-longest streak in program history and trailing just the 21-game streak that directly preceded the current streak. FSU had a home run in 40 of the last 41 games and in 61 of 66 this year.
Lodise ended the season with a 23-game on-base streak, the longest of his career.
James Tibbs III hit a single in the sixth inning and ends the season tying his career-high 24-game on-base streak.
Max Williams was 2-for-4 with his 11th double, ending the year with a career-high 11-game hitting streak and 21-game on-base streak. He had 19 multi-hit games, including three in the CWS.
Senior pitcher Brennen Oxford made his team-high 32nd appearance of the season and third of the College World Series. He threw a career-high 75 pitches.
Joe Charles made his first appearance of the College World Series. His 30 appearances are a career high and second-most among FSU pitchers. He retired the first nine batters he faced and his 4.2 innings pitched and five strikeouts were both a career high.
Freshman pitcher John Abraham made his third start of the season and first of the postseason.

Florida State's 87 runs in seven games this NCAA Tournament (9.6 per game) are the second-most runs per game of any team this season in the tournament, trailing only Tennessee's (9.9 runs per game) Florida State and Tennessee had entered the game as the only other teams averaging at least 10 runs per game in the postseason.
Max Williams finished the day 2-for-4 with a singles and a double to extend his on-base streak to 21 straight games and his hit streak to 11 consecutive contests. His two hit day was part of his 19th multi-hit game of the season.
Marco Dinges finished Wednesday with a 1-for-4 showing at the plate, extending his on-base streak to 18 straight games.
Max Williams and Marco Dinges' 16 hits in this year's NCAA Tournament are tied for the second-most by any player in the tournament this season, behind Tennessee's Blake Burke's 17 hits.
James Tibbs III pushed his active team-leading on-base streak to 24 straight games after blooping a single into center in the bottom of the sixth inning.
Despite not recording a hit on Wednesday, Cam Smith finished the season ranked second nationally behind Tennessee's Christian Moore (109) with 106 hits this season.
Daniel Cantu opened the scoring for the Seminoles in the bottom of the seventh inning, blasting his ninth home run of the season into the right field bullpen.
Alex Lodise followed with his ninth home run of the season with a 359-foot solo shot to right. It was the ninth time this season that Florida State has recorded back-to-back home runs in a game.
Daniel Cantu and Alex Lodise's back-to-back home runs were just the fifth time players have hit back-to-back homers at the MCWS since the move to Charles Schwab Field Omaha in 2011 (Florida State's Jaxson West and Max Williams in 2024, Florida's Wyatt Langford and Jac Caglianone in 2023, Ole Miss's TJ McCants, Calvin Harris and Justin Bench in 2022 and Florida State's Quince Nieporte and Cal Raleigh in 2017). Florida State has been responsible for 3 of the 5 instances of back-to-back home runs in the MCWS since the move to Charles Schwab Field Omaha in 2011.
Back in 2017, Florida State's Quincy Nieporte and Cal Raleigh hit the first back-to-back homers in stadium history when the did it in the 9th inning vs. LSU (they actually did it on back-to-back pitches).
John Abraham made just his third start of the year, falling to 5-2 overall after allowing three runs on two hits in 0.1 innings pitched.
John Abraham becoming the fifth Florida State starting pitcher to record one of fewer outs in the MCWS and the first since Brandon Leibrandt in 2012 vs. Arizona. This was the third time in the 2024 MCWS that a starting pitcher has recorded one or fewer outs in a game (Tennessee's Chris Stamos vs. FSU, 0.1 IP & Kentucky's Dominic Niman vs. Florida, 0.1 IP).
