Fifteen Extra-Base Hits Carries Noles To Two Wins On Opening Day.
No. 9 Florida State hit the ball all over the yard in wins over Portland State (18-1) and Texas State (4-2).

SAN MARCOS, TX — The 2018 season started with a bang for Florida State, as the No. 9 Seminoles (2-0) earned a pair of wins behind an explosive offense that recorded 15 extra-base hits, 22 total hits and 22 runs in wins over Portland State (1-1) and RV Texas State (1-1) on Friday in the Bobcat Classic in San Marcos, Texas.

FSU earned an 18-1 win over Portland State in the season opener and closed out the day with a 4-2 win over Texas State, which received votes in the preseasons polls by the NFCA and USA Softball.

The 18 runs against Portland State set a school record in runs scored in a season opener, surpassing the total of 13 runs in opening-day wins against Lipscomb in 2017 and Samford in 2007. It is also the second-most runs scored in any FSU game, trailing only the 20 runs scored against Bethune-Cookman on February 10, 2013.

Eight different players hit at least one extra-base hit on the day, led by junior Carsyn Gordon who had two doubles, a triple and a home run. Overall, the Seminoles tallied seven doubles, four triples and four home runs over both games on Friday.

“Great way to start the season,” said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. “We were able to stay focused and execute in a bunch of different situations and we’ll be able to learn and grow from them. Excited about the fight we had against Texas State to stay in it and come back against a quality team and a quality pitcher. A great first day of hopefully a long softball season.”

Game 1: No. 9 Florida State 18, Portland State 1
The Seminoles jumped out to a quick 3-0 lead in the first inning against the Vikings. A one-out walk by Jessie Warren, followed by a double to right center by Gordon set the stage for Cali Harrod to drive in the game’s first run on an RBI groundout to short. A walk to Dani Morgan put runners on the corners, and a stolen base by Morgan and a Portland State error allowed Gordon to score from third and make it 2-0 Noles. A wild pitch on a walk to Anna Shelnutt by PSU’s Serafine Parrish allowed Morgan to come home for a 3-0 Seminole lead after the first inning.

Florida State put up three more runs in the second inning, highlighted by Warren’s first home run of the season, a towering shot to left field to score Korina Rosario who reached on an infield single. Gordon added a two-out walk and came into score on an RBI double by Harrod into the gap in left center.

Sydney Sherrill wasted little time to impact the college game, as the freshman sent the first pitch of her at-bat in the third inning over the wall in right to extend the FSU lead to 8-0, scoring Shelnutt, who led off the inning with a walk. Rosario followed with ground-rule double into the corner in left field and Warren singled up the middle to make it a 9-0 game with her third RBI of the game, moving into third place in ACC history with her 206th career RBI.

The inning continued with an RBI double by Gordon and a two-run home run by Harrod to push the FSU lead to 12-0.

Florida State starting pitcher Meghan King (1-0) was efficient in the circle for the Noles tossing just 21 pitches in the first three innings. She pitched 3.2 perfect innings before allowing a two-out double in the top of the fourth to Darian Lindsey. Portland State continued the rally with a pair of singles to plate its only run of the game.

The Noles added six more runs in the bottom of the fourth inning, sparked by a leadoff double by Shelnutt. RBI singles by Zoe Casas and Elizabeth Mason, along with an RBI double by Sherrill were all capped off by a three-run home run by Gordon to left field for the 18-1 final score.

Cassidy Davis closed out the game in the circle for the Noles, tossing a scoreless fifth inning without allowing a hit.

Game 2: No. 9 Florida State 4, RV Texas State 2
The second game of the day began as a duel between two of the top pitchers in the country – FSU’s Kylee Hanson and Texas State’s Randi Rupp. Hanson was an NFCA Second Team All-American at FAU in 2016, missed nearly all of 2017 due to injury and came in at No. 20 in the 2018 ESPN preseason players to watch list. Rupp was an NFCA Second Team All-American in 2017, selected to the 2018 Top 50 Watch List for USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Year and ranked No. 25 in the preseason by ESPN.

FSU opened the scoring in the second inning, as Morgan led off with a triple to right center and scored on a sacrifice fly by Shelnutt to make it 1-0.

The Bobcats tied it up in the bottom of the second on a one-out solo home run by Hailey MacKay.

The Seminoles threatened in the top of the third inning, loading the bases on an infield single by Klaevemann and walks to Warren and Harrod, but were unable to drive them in.

MacKay connected on another Hanson pitch for her second home run of the game in the bottom of the fourth to put Texas State in front 2-1.

The Noles broke out for three runs in the top of the fifth, led off by a single by Rosario. Klaevemann tied the game with an RBI triple into the gap in right center, and quickly came into score on a sacrifice fly by Warren to give Florida State a 3-2 lead. A triple by Gordon allowed Harrod to make it 4-2 Seminoles with a sacrifice bunt to third.

Hanson (1-0) closed out the game, retiring nine of the last 11 batters of the game, finishing with the complete-game victory and eight strikeouts, with one walk and four hits in her first game in the Garnet and Gold.

No. 9 Seminoles Post Pair Of Run-Rule Victories.
Florida State earned wins over Texas State (8-0 in 6 inn) and Portland State (11-1 in 5 inn) on Saturday.

SAN MARCOS, TX - The Seminole offense and defense combined to post a pair of impressive wins over RV Texas State (2-2) and Portland State (1-3) on Saturday in the Bobcat Classic. No. 9 Florida State (4-0) recorded an 8-0 shutout in six innings over Texas State and closed out the day with an 11-1 win in five innings against Portland State.

The trio of Seminole pitchers - Meghan King, Kylee Hanson and Tessa Daniels - combined to allow only three hits over the 11 innings played on the day.

Through four games of the season, 11 different Seminoles have recorded at least one extra-base hit, with five players with multiple XBH and led by five each from Carsyn Gordon (two doubles, a triple and two home runs) and Jessie Warren (three doubles and two home runs). In total, Florida State has tallied 24 extra-base hits in its first 43 hits of the season - 11 doubles, six triples and seven home runs.

"Solid weekend and I think we got out of it what we wanted," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "We were able to stick to our plans at the plate and had a lot of quality at-bats and were able to see players in many different defensive positions. In the circle, we worked through some challenging spots and will be able to learn a lot from this weekend as we come home. Looking forward to opening the season at JoAnne Graf Field on Wednesday."

Game 1: No. 9 Florida State 8, RV Texas State 0 (6 inn)
As the home team in the first game of the day against host school Texas State, the Seminoles opened the game with pair of runs in the bottom of the first to take a 2-0 lead on the Bobcats. Morgan Klaevemann led off with an infield single, stole second and came in to score on an RBI double by Warren, her second of the season and 39th of her career, moving into a tie for sixth all-time in FSU history with Victoria East (2013-16) and Brandi Stuart (2000-03). Warren moved to third on a wild pitch and scored on an infield single by Cali Harrod.

The Noles had a two-out rally in the third inning, posting five consecutive singles with two away to make it a 5-0 game. Dani Morgan had a two-RBI single to right and Zoe Casas lined an RBI single to center to score the runs for FSU.

Senior Korina Rosario started the FSU fourth inning by being hit by pitch and stole second base to move into scoring position. Gordon drove her in with an RBI single up the middle to push the Florida State advantage to 6-0 through four complete innings.

King had another outstanding start in the circle for Florida State, allowing just one base runner on a single in the first inning until an FSU error in the fourth put a Bobcat runner on base. Texas State threatened in the fifth inning as Ariel Ortiz was hit by a pitch and eventually reached third base on a groundout and a passed ball. A walk to Kennedy Cline put runners on the corners with two outs, but a fly out to left ended the threat.

The Noles nearly ended the game in the bottom of the fifth as Leslie Farris lined a two-out double down the left field line. Rosario followed with a towering shot to right field, but the 25+ mph wind blowing in kept the ball from leaving the yard, bouncing off the top of the wall for an RBI triple and a 7-0 lead.

Florida State got its eighth run of the game in the bottom of the sixth to close out the game with the run-rule victory. Gordon hit a single to right and was pinch-run for by Deja Bush. Bush stole second, but advanced to third on a wild pitch and scored on another wild pitch to seal the 8-0 victory.

King (2-0) finished with a complete-game one-hitter, allowing just one walk with four strikeouts over 6.0 innings.

Game 2: No. 9 Florida State 11, Portland State 1 (5 Inn)
Florida State started strong in the second game of the day, plating four runs in the top of the first inning against Portland State. Klaevemann led off the game and reached on a Viking fielding error and immediately stole second base. Gordon opened the scoring with a two-run home run, and Harrod followed with a solo home run of her own.

The inning continued with a single to left by Morgan and after she stole second base, Casas drove her in on an RBI double into the left field corner.

The Noles loaded the bases in the second inning behind a single by Warren and walks to Rosario and Gordon, but were only able to score one run in the frame on a sacrifice fly by Harrod.

A three-run third inning pushed the Seminole lead to 8-0 over Portland State. Casas singled, but was replaced at first on a fielder's choice by Sydney Sherrill. The freshman stole second and moved up to third on a throwing error. A walk to Rosario put runners on the corners and the senior quickly stole second, and another PSU throwing error allowed Sherrill to score from third. Klaevemann followed with a walk and Warren cleared the bases with a two-RBI double to center.

FSU starter Kylee Hanson retired the first eight batters she faced before allowing a single up the middle in the bottom of the third inning. She ended the inning with her fourth strikeout of the game.

The Seminoles added an unearned run in the top of the fourth as Elizabeth Mason drew a pinch-hit walk and then advanced to third on a PSU throwing error. Sherrill drove in her fourth RBI of the season with a sacrifice fly to left.

Tessa Daniels came into pitch to start the fourth, ending Hanson's day in the circle. Hanson improved to 2-0 on the season and faced only 10 batters in the win. After Daniels retired the first two batters, the Vikings got runners on first and second after a single and an FSU error. A wild pitch caromed far away from the plate, allowing the Viking runner to score from second and cut the Seminole lead to 9-1.

Warren led off the Seminole fifth inning with a solo home run to right, and Gordon followed with a walk on four pitches. Gordon moved up to second on a wild pitch, tagged and went to third on a fly out to center, and came in to score on an RBI groundout by Morgan.

Daniels closed out the game with a scoreless fifth inning and finished with 2.0 innings pitched and gave up one run on one hit and one walk and recorded two strikeouts.

Hanson Fans Nine In Victory Over Florida A&M.
The Seminoles earn their fourth run-rule victory of 2018 with a 9-0 win in five innings over Florida A&M on Wednesday night.

TALLAHASSEE, FL - Kylee Hanson and No. 8 Florida State (5-0) made quick work of Florida A&M (1-3) on Wednesday night as it only took the Seminoles 65 minutes to post a 9-0 victory in five innings over the Rattlers.

Hanson (3-0) was efficient, striking out nine of the 14 batters she faced, giving up just one hit and one walk as the redshirt senior made her JoAnne Graf Field debut.

"I'm loving the energy out of this team right now," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "The kids enjoy each other and have fun together and it is really cool to see that displayed on the field. Excited for the postseason feel for the games this weekend against Minnesota and Michigan and looking forward to how we handle veteran teams that are experienced and how we make adjustments from game to game."

The Noles opened the scoring straight away in the bottom of the first as walks to Morgan Klaevemann and Carsyn Gordon, along with Jessie Warren reaching on an error, set the stage for Zoe Casas to empty them with a bases-clearing triple to left center. Sydney Sherrill added an RBI single to round out the scoring at 4-0 after the first inning.

Korina Rosario reached on a catcher's interference to start the FSU second inning and moved to second with a stolen base and over to third on a sacrifice bunt by Klaevemann. Warren made it a 5-0 game one batter later with a sacrifice fly to center.

Anna Shelnutt led off the Seminole fourth inning with a lined shot back up the middle and she was pinch-run for at first by Deja Bush. Bush easily scored on Rosario's triple to right center, the second triple of the season for the senior outfielder.

The inning continued with a bunt single by Klaevemann and Warren added two more RBI with a double off the wall in left to give her 214 RBI for her career, just two shy of the FSU record of 216 RBI set by Maddie O'Brien (2012-15). Warren came into score later in the inning on a double down the right field line by Cali Harrod for the 9-0 final score.

Savanna Copeland made her first career pitching appearance, tossing a perfect fifth inning for the Seminoles, recording a strikeout to the first batter she faced.

Sherrill Sparks Seminoles In Comeback Win Over Minnesota.
No. 8 Florida State scored twice in the sixth inning to come back and defeat No. 14 Minnesota, 3-2, on Friday night.

TALLAHASSEE, FL - It may have said February on the calendar, but the 82-degree temperature at first pitch and two Top-15 teams facing off against each other made it feel more like May at JoAnne Graf Field on Friday night in the first day of the 2018 ACC/Big Ten Softball Challenge.

No. 8 Florida State (6-0) and No. 14 Minnesota (5-1) showed why they were two of the best teams in the country in a back-and-forth pitcher's duel that was not decided until the final out in FSU's 3-2 victory.

Sydney Sherrill's two-RBI double in the bottom of the sixth inning put the Seminoles up 3-1, though a Minnesota rally in the top of the seventh cut the lead to 3-2 and put the go-ahead run on base before a diving stop by FSU's Carsyn Gordon knocked down a ball destined for extra bases down the right field line and ended the game with a put out at first.

"Great win, and I loved the fight of this team," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "We gave up a run early but stayed in it and worked and worked and Syd came through with a big hit for us. Minnesota is going to win a lot of games and they know how to compete. And now comes the fun part of who can make adjustments going into tomorrow's game. Who can get just that much better, as the difference tonight between winning and losing was very small."

The Noles threatened in the first inning as a leadoff walk to Morgan Klaevemann put her on base and she moved to third after a stolen base and a groundout. Gordon topped a ball in front of the plate, and the throw to third was late for an infield single, but Klaevemann was retired at the plate on the return throw home.

Minnesota scored an unearned run in the top of the second inning to take a 1-0 lead. Danielle Parlich reached on a one-out fielding error by Florida State and scored on a two-out double by Carlie Brandt to left center.

It was the only run scored until the bottom of the fifth as FSU's Meghan King and UofM's Amber Fiser allowed just eight total baserunners between them through 4.5 innings, including seven strikeouts.

The Seminoles tied the game in the bottom of the fifth after Zoe Casas led off with a double to right center. She moved to third on a groundout, and an infield single by Anna Shelnutt put runners on the corners. Elizabeth Mason came in to run for Casas at third, and on a ball back to the pitcher off the bat of Korina Rosario, Mason baited a throw to third allowing the Noles to load the bases with one out. After a fielder's choice by Klaevemann retired Mason at the plate, Jessie Warren tied the game at 1-1 by being hit by a pitch.

King pitched a scoreless sixth and Florida State took its first lead of the game in the sixth as Cali Harrod led off with a nine-pitch at bat that finished with a single up the middle. A stolen base by Harrod and a walk to Mason set the stage for Sherrill to drive them both in on a lined double to the gap in left center.

"The game was intense, but we were on it from the get-go, so I knew that we would come through," said Sherrill. "We've been working all game and I was under one and then on top of another, so I was just waiting for my pitch. This just shows that we are a comeback team. We are never down and you can never count us out. Really excited for the rest of this weekend and the season as a whole."

Minnesota battled in the top of the seventh, behind a double by Brandt and a single by Ellee Jensen to put runners on the corners with one out. They were only able to score one run on a sacrifice fly by MaKenna Partain, before Gordon's impressive diving stop at first base ended the game.

King improved to 3-0 on the season, scattering four hits over 7.0 innings with two runs and one earned. She walked three and recorded a season-high seven strikeouts. King finished with 132 pitches thrown, the second-most in her career and the most since she tossed 148 against Florida on May 4, 2016.

No. 8 FSU Splits On Day Two Of ACC/Big Ten Challenge.
The No. 8 Seminoles defeated No. 14 Minnesota, 9-3, before falling 1-0 to No. 20 Michigan on Saturday evening.

TALLAHASSEE, FL - Florida State had another strong showing on Day 2 of the 2018 ACC/Big Ten Softball Challenge on Saturday as the No. 8 Seminoles (7-1) started the afternoon with a convincing 9-3 win over No. 14 Minnesota, while a first-inning run proved to be the difference in Michigan's 1-0 win over FSU to close out the night.

"Completely excited about the energy of the team," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "This was an amazing environment, our fans were outstanding and it was a great atmosphere to play what felt like postseason softball in February. Both Meghan's pitched a great game tonight, but you have to tip your hat to Beaubien. Michigan took some hacks and she pitched a great game for them and that's why we want to play the ACC/Big Ten Challenge to get yourself these good at bats. I'm really proud of our team to have the fight in the seventh inning, so I'm excited about tomorrow and being able to make some adjustments."

Game 1: No. 8 Florida State 9, No. 14 Minnesota 3
The Seminoles opened the scoring in the top of the second against Minnesota with an RBI single by Zoe Casas. She brought in Cali Harrod who reached on a Minnesota throwing error and moved up to third on the play.

FSU made it 2-0 in the third inning with a solo home run by Carsyn Gordon to left field. The junior first baseman worked a 10-pitch at bat, and capped it off with her third home run of the season.

A leadoff single by Minnesota's Erika Rozell sparked a run for the Gophers in the bottom of the third, as an FSU fielding error continued the frame and an RBI single by Sydney Dwyer cut the Seminole lead to 2-1 after three innings.

The Seminoles broke out for four runs in the top of the fourth inning, highlighted by a three-run home run by Anna Shelnutt, scoring Sydney Sherrill and Dani Morgan who led off the inning with a single and a double, respectively. Morgan Klaevemann followed with a walk and came around to score an unearned run on a throwing error by Minnesota starting pitcher Sydney Smith.

Redshirt senior Kylee Hanson had an outstanding outing in the circle, improving to 4-0 on the season, giving up just one run in her 5.0 innings of work. She recorded eight strikeouts and allowed just one unearned run on a walk and two hits.

Tessa Daniels came in to pitch the sixth inning for the Noles, and gave up a walk and a double to the first two batters she faced. An RBI groundout and an RBI single to right shrank the Seminole lead to 6-3 after six innings.

A leadoff single in the FSU seventh by Sherrill, her fourth base hit of the day, along with a single by Shelnutt set the stage for a pinch-hit, three-run home run by sophomore Cassidy Davis.

Davis stayed in the game to pitch a scoreless seventh inning, giving up just one hit and posting a strikeout to close out the 9-3 victory.

Game 2: No. 20 Michigan 1, No. 8 Florida State 0
Michigan found all the offense it needed in the first inning, as Faith Canfield led off the game with a double to right center and came in to score on an RBI single by Tera Blanco.

FSU starter Meghan King settled in an retired the next eight batters before allowing a double and a hit-by-pitch to put a pair of Wolverines on with one out in the inning. Gordon made a pair of impressive defensive plays to end the inning unscathed, tracking down a pop fly in foul territory and also making a clean pick on ball in the dirt for a force out at first.

The Wolverines threatened again in the sixth inning on a walk and a hit-by-pitch with one out, but King got out of the jam by deflecting a ball up the middle to Sherrill, who stepped on second and fired to first to complete the inning-ending double play.

Michigan starting pitcher Meghan Beaubien was perfect through 6.1 innings, retiring the first 19 batters she faced, including six strikeouts. Jessie Warren broke up the no-hit bid with a one-out single in the bottom of the seventh and Cali Harrod followed with a two-out base hit to center. A wild pitch moved the winning run to second base, but Beaubien's seventh strikeout ended the game.

King (3-1) took the loss after allowing just one run and four hits over 7.0 innings with one walk and four strikeouts.

Kylee Hanson Tosses Two-Hit Shutout Versus No. 20 Michigan.
The redshirt senior has not given up an earned run in her last 22.0 innings pitched.

TALLAHASSEE, FL - It was another pitcher's duel at JoAnne Graf Field on the final day of the 2018 ACC/Big Ten Softball Challenge, as No. 8 Florida State (8-1) and No. 20 Michigan (5-4) were scoreless through five innings on Sunday, before the Seminoles scored a run each in the sixth and seventh to earn a 2-0 victory.

A pair of Seminoles earned ACC/Big Ten Challenge MVP honors as Sydney Sherrill was named Most Valuable Player on the weekend. The freshman batted .583 (7-for-12) with two doubles, two RBI, three runs scored and a .750 slugging percentage. Kylee Hanson earned Most Valuable Pitcher accolades, posting a 2-0 record for the tournament with a 0.00 ERA and 12 strikeouts. She allowed just one unearned run, four hits and three walks through 11.2 innings and limited opponents to a .098 batting average.

"Outstanding job this weekend," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "We learned a lot about our team and learned a lot about where we can grow and improve. Another intense battle with Michigan and I was glad that we didn't lose our focus after some early setbacks. We had chances to get several runs in the first couple of innings, but couldn't put it together, but when those opportunities came again in the sixth and seventh, we took advantage. Kylee pitched another great game and had a great weekend for us and has been excellent in the circle for us this year."

The Seminoles got a pair of runners on in each of the first four innings, but could not manage to push any of them across the plate against Michigan starter Sarah Schaefer. Doubles by Cali Harrod and Carsyn Gordon, along with singles by Sherrill, Elizabeth Mason and Korina Rosario provided the offense for Florida State, but each would be left stranded.

Sherrill led off the FSU sixth inning with a double, prompting Michigan to make a pitching change to bring in Meghan Beaubien. Anna Shelnutt moved Sherrill up to third with a sacrifice bunt and Mason drove in her fellow freshman with a sacrifice fly to right to put the Noles on the board, 1-0.

Warren connected on a Beaubien pitch in the top of the seventh inning, launching a solo home run to center to make it 2-0 Florida State. It marked the 216th RBI of her career, matching the Florida State record set by Maddie O'Brien from 2012 to 2015.

Hanson tossed a two-hit shutout over 6.2 innings to improve to 5-0 on the season. She struck out four and walked two, and faced 24 of the 25 Michigan batters on the day as Meghan King entered the circle to pitch to one batter, striking out Aidan Falk to end the Michigan sixth inning.

FSU Pair Earn ACC Accolades; Noles Drop Midweek Matchup.
Kylee Hanson and Sydney Sherrill were recognized as ACC Pitcher and Player of the Week, while the Seminoles fell to McNeese on Tuesday night.

TALLAHASSEE, FL - The Florida State softball program received some good and bad news in a short amount of time on Tuesday evening as redshirt senior Kylee Hanson and freshman Sydney Sherrill were honored as the ACC Pitcher and Player of the Week, respectively, shortly after first pitch against McNeese at around 5:00 p.m. A little more than two hours later, the No. 8 Seminoles (8-2) ended up falling to the RV Cowgirls (7-3) by a score of 6-1.

"Tough game against a tough team," said Lonni Alameda. "McNeese is scrappy and fights and knows it can beat anyone. They're an annual NCAA tournament team and are coached well. I thought we created some good opportunities for ourselves and got some quality swings off, but a bunch of hard line drives went right at players for outs, and that's just the game sometimes. Tip your hat to them and now we clear it and get ready for a challenging road trip to Alabama."

Hanson added to her already award-filled day, where she earned USA Softball National Player of the Week and NFCA Pitcher of the Week honors, with her first ACC weekly accolade. She was undefeated last week with a 3-0 record, 0.00 ERA and 21 strikeouts over 15.2 innings as teams batted .093 against her.

Sherrill led the team with a .600 batting average (9-for-15) for the week with two doubles, three RBI, three runs scored and a slugging percentage of .733. She was named the Most Valuable Player of the Tallahassee site for the ACC/Big Ten Challenge and gave the Noles the lead on Minnesota on February 16 with a two-run double in the sixth inning, followed by a career day against the Gophers on Saturday, batting 4-for-4 against the top 15 team with a pair of runs scored. Sherrill closed the weekend with two hits, including a double, against No. 20 Michigan, scoring the go-ahead run in the sixth inning.

In Tuesday's softball game, the Seminoles left 10 runners on base and created a lot of loud outs in a game that was scoreless through the first three innings.

Florida State had two runners in the first on a Jessie Warren single and a Carsyn Gordon walk, but were unable to score. Warren's base hit extended her hitting streak to 11 games, all 10 games in 2018 as well as the last game of the 2017 season.

The Seminoles loaded the bases in the second inning on a McNeese throwing error and walks to Morgan Klaevemann and Cali Harrod, and had two more baserunners in the third on another error and a walk to Gordon, but could not find the key hit to drive them in.

McNeese took a 2-0 lead in the top of the fourth with a two-run home run by Alexandria Saldivar, and added a another home run in the fifth inning, a three-run HR by 2016 and 2017 NFCA All-American Erika Piancastelli for a 5-0 lead.

The Noles scored their only run in the sixth inning as Anna Shelnutt led off the inning and reached on an error. She was pinch-run for at second base by Korina Rosario, who moved to third on a fly out and scored on an RBI groundout by Dani Morgan.

McNeese scored its final run in the seventh after a single, a groundout and two wild pitches allowed Padyn Williams to score for the 6-1 final.

Florida State used three pitchers on the night with Meghan King (3-2) tossing the first 4.0 innings, allowing two runs on three hits with three walks and three strikeouts. Freshman Savanna Copeland made her JoAnne Graf Field debut and allowed five walks and a base hit with three runs scored over 1.1 innings. Sophomore Cassidy Davis tossed the final 1.2 innings, allowing a run on one hit with one strikeout.

Warren Has Record Night As Noles Split Doubleheader.
Jessie Warren sets FSU RBI and ACC HR records on Wednesday night.

MOBILE, AL - Florida State senior Jessie Warren continued to collect school and conference records on Wednesday night as the third baseman set the FSU career RBI record, as well as the ACC career home run record as the No. 9 Seminoles (9-3) split the doubleheader with South Alabama (6-5) at Jaguar Field.

Warren drove in the only run in FSU's 3-1 defeat in game one to set the school RBI record and her first-inning home run in game two's 14-1 victory tied UNC's Kristen Brown for the ACC career home run mark with 66. Warren added a grand slam in the second inning to take sole possession of the ACC record. She finished the doubleheader with 67 career home runs and 222 career RBI.

"Tough way to get a split, but tip your hat to Devin Brown, she kept our hitters off balance all game in the first one," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "Also, what a special night for Jessie. She is so fun to watch and puts in a lot of work and truly loves and understands the game. She continues to get smarter with how teams are pitching her and how she wants to attack different situations. I doubt she even knew she was approaching these records."

Game 1: South Alabama 3, No. 9 Florida State 1
The first hit of the game from either team came in the bottom of the third on a leadoff single by Lyric Cabral. The inning continued with a walk and the Jaguars loaded the bases after an FSU fielding error. Kaleigh Todd gave South Alabama a 2-0 lead with a single to center.

The runs snapped streaks of FSU starting pitcher Kylee Hanson of 24.0 innings without giving up an earned run and 11.0 consecutive scoreless innings.

South Alabama added another run in the fourth inning with a solo home run by Abby Krzywiecki for a 3-0 lead.

Hanson (5-1) was replaced entering the sixth inning, ending her start with 5.0 innings pitched and allowing three runs on five hits with one walk and six strikeouts. Cassidy Davis pitched the final inning, struck out the first batter she faced and retired the next two on a fly out and ground out.

The Seminoles threatened in the seventh, bringing the go-ahead run to the plate, but could not get the key hit to bring them all in to extend the game. Davis led off the inning, reached on a Jaguar throwing error and was pinch-run for at first base by Deja Bush. Morgan Klaevemann put down a bunt single and Cali Harrod followed with a walk to load the bases with one out.

Warren hit a high chopper over the third baseman to score Bush and the ball got away from the South Alabama left fielder. Klaevemann saw an opportunity to score, but got in a run down between third and home for out number two, and a strikeout ended the game.

Game 2: No. 9 Florida State 14, South Alabama 1 (5 inn)
The Seminole offense came out early in game two as Warren hit a solo home run in the first inning for a 1-0 lead. Florida State put up seven in the second inning behind a bases-loaded walk by Klaevemann, a two-run home run by Carsyn Gordon and a grand slam by Warren. Sydney Sherrill added a double and Davis singled in the inning.

Florida State batted around again in the third inning, plating four runs on a pair of two-RBI base hits, a double by Harrod and a single by Gordon. Davis led off the inning with a double and Dani Morgan and Sabrina Stutsman followed with singles of their own.

Meghan King (4-2) had a nearly perfect outing in the circle, retiring nine of the 10 batters she faced, and allowing just one hit on an infield single to leadoff the first inning. She finished with six strikeouts, including striking out the side in the third inning.

Savanna Copeland pitched the fourth inning for Florida State, giving up an unearned run and two walks with a strikeout, without giving up a hit.

The Seminoles added two more in the top of the fifth on a two-RBI single by Morgan for the 14-1 final score. Davis recorded her third base hit in the inning to set a career high and freshman Mackenzie Puckett made her first career plate appearance, drawing a walk.

Tessa Daniels closed out the game in the circle for the Noles, setting a career high with three strikeouts after issuing a leadoff walk.

Warren Has Record Night As Noles Split Doubleheader.
Jessie Warren sets FSU RBI and ACC HR records on Wednesday night.

MOBILE, AL - Florida State senior Jessie Warren continued to collect school and conference records on Wednesday night as the third baseman set the FSU career RBI record, as well as the ACC career home run record as the No. 9 Seminoles (9-3) split the doubleheader with South Alabama (6-5) at Jaguar Field.

Sydney Sherrill added a double and Davis singled in the inning.

Florida State batted around again in the third inning, plating four runs on a pair of two-RBI base hits, a double by Harrod and a single by Gordon. Davis led off the inning with a double and Dani Morgan and Sabrina Stutsman followed with singles of their own.

Tessa Daniels closed out the game in the circle for the Noles, setting a career high with three strikeouts after issuing a leadoff walk.

Meghan King & Cassidy Davis Toss Perfect Game As FSU Posts Friday Split.
The No. 9 Seminoles top Northern Iowa, 9-0, but fall to No. 10 Alabama, 3-0.

TUSCALOOSA, AL - Fifteen up, fifteen down in the first game of the day as Meghan King and Cassidy Davis combined to throw a perfect game in a 9-0 win by No. 9 Florida State (10-4) over Northern Iowa (9-4) to start the day. The Seminoles lost by a score of 3-0 in the night cap against host school No. 10 Alabama (8-1) in Friday action at the Easton Bama Bash.

It was the second perfect game under head coach Lonni Alameda and the first for Florida State since King's 6.0-inning perfect game against Tulsa in Palo Alto, Calif., on March 12, 2016.

"Great team win in game one and really happy for Meghan and Cass," said Alameda. "We were able to get out in front early and then executed in the circle and on defense to finish out the game. Against Alabama, we had the environment that we expected - a full house and an electric atmosphere with a veteran pitcher for them in the circle. While losing is never fun, seeing players stay focused and compete and continue working will help us not only when we face them again tomorrow, but throughout the rest of the season as well."

Game 1: No. 9 Florida State 9, Northern Iowa 0 (5 innings)
Florida State quickly took a 2-0 lead in game one without posting an out as Cali Harrod opened the game with a four-pitch walk and Jessie Warren hit her sixth home run of the season to center field. The inning continued with a double from Sydney Sherrill, a single from Davis and an RBI bunt single by Morgan Klaevemann.

Elizabeth Mason followed with a single to load the bases and Anna Shelnutt's single through the left side brought in two more runs for a 5-0 lead after the top of the first inning.

The Seminoles added four more in the second inning, highlighted by a three-run home run by Davis. Sherrill added an RBI double in the inning and Warren also singled and Carsyn Gordon drew a walk.

The stars of the game resided in the circle for the combined perfect game by King and Davis. King (5-2) recorded four strikeouts over her 3.0 innings of work, including striking out the side in the second inning. FSU left fielder Dani Morgan made a nice catch at the wall with one out in the third to preserve the perfect game.

Davis entered to pitch the fourth and fifth innings, and ended the game with one strikeout. A low pop fly off the bat of UNI's Kennedy Bailey seemed destined to drop for a hit in shallow center field, but Klaevemann made a diving grab to end the inning.

Game 2: No. 10 Alabama 3, No. 9 Florida State 0
Similar to the first game, Florida State got the first two batters on base with a Harrd single and a Warren walk, but both would be left stranded as the next three batters were retired.

Alabama led off the bottom of the first with a single up the middle by Elissa Brown, and a stolen base and a pair of groundouts were enough for her to score the first run of the game.

The Seminoles got a pair of runners on in the top of the fourth with a walk to Gordon and a single to left by Davis, but a fly out and groundout left them on base.

FSU starter Kylee Hanson settled in after the run in first, tossing 3.1 straight innings without allowing a hit, pitching around walks in the second and third inning, before a one-out single in the fourth by Peyton Grantham. Alabama extended its lead to 2-0 with a two-out RBI single to left by Reagan Dykes, before Hanson ended the inning with a strikeout.

A leadoff triple and a walk in the Alabama fifth ended Hanson's day in the circle as Davis made her second pitching appearance of the day. The sophomore retired the first batter she faced with a strikeout, but loaded the bases with an intentional walk to Bailey Hemphill. The Tide added another run with a sacrifice fly to center by Gabby Callaway to make it 3-0 after five complete.

Sherrill opened the FSU sixth with a single to right, but the Noles couldn't make anything of it.

Tessa Daniels pitched the final 0.2 innings of the game, allowing a lone hit.

Jessie Warren Ties ACC Record As FSU Tops Alabama/Georgia State.
The senior matches the ACC career mark in runs batted in with 228.

TUSCALOOSA, AL - Senior Jessie Warren continued her impressive offensive career, hitting a home run in both games on Saturday as No. 9 Florida State (12-4) earned a 3-1 win over No. 10 Alabama (9-2) and topped Georgia State (7-8) by a score of 8-0 in six innings on Saturday night at the Easton Bama Bash.

Warren ended the day with four RBI and is tied with Whitney Haller of Georgia Tech (2006-09) for the ACC record of 228 RBI. Her two home runs increased her career total to 70, which is tied for No. 23 all-time in NCAA softball history.

"Really pleased with how we handled all the adversity today," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "Between the rain delays and challenging situations at the plate and in the field, everyone stayed focused and competed every pitch and helped us get two wins over a pair of quality teams. Both Meghan and Kylee were great in the circle for us today and the defense made some impressive plays behind them. Solid day and hope we can avoid the rain and close out the weekend tomorrow."

Game 1: No. 9 Florida State 3, No. 10 Alabama 1
Junior Carsyn Gordon put the Seminoles up 1-0 in the top of the second inning, leading off with a solo home run to left, her fifth home run of the season.

FSU starting pitcher Meghan King retired the first three Alabama batters she faced, before a second-inning double by Bailey Hemphill. It snapped a streak of 21 consecutive batters retired over three appearances, dating back to a single by South Alabama's Kaleigh Todd on February 21.

Warren made it 2-0 in the third inning with a solo home run to right field. Cali Harrod hit a two-out double in the top of the fifth, and she came in to score on an RBI single up the middle by Warren.

Alabama got its second baserunner of the game on a two-out single in the bottom of the fifth inning, and after a hit-by-pitch, an RBI single by Sydney Booker cut the Seminole lead to 3-1 after five innings.

Alabama threatened in the seventh, as Kaylee Tow led off with a walk. A sacrifice bunt moved her to second and after a fly-out to left, the inning continued with Carrigan Fain being hit by a pitch with two outs. An infield single by Booker loaded the bases, but Gordon caught a pop out in foul territory down the first base line to end the game.

King (6-2) allowed one run with five hits and one walk in her complete-game victory over the Crimson Tide.

Game 2: No. 9 Florida State 8, Georgia State 0 (6 innings)
The Seminole freshmen were the highlights early in game two against Georgia State as Sydney Sherrill gave FSU a 1-0 lead with a solo home run to center in the fourth inning. Redshirt freshman Elizabeth Mason hit a solo home run of her own to lead off the FSU fifth inning and Sherrill later followed with an RBI single in the inning.

Kylee Hanson controlled the game in the circle for the Seminoles, tossing seven strikeouts in the first three innings, including all three outs in the top of the first.

She finished with nine strikeouts in the complete-game 6.0-inning victory, scattering three hits and two walks.

Florida State scored four runs in the bottom of the sixth to close out the game with a run-rule victory. Mason added another extra-base hit with a one-out double to left center. Anna Shelnutt walked, but was retired at second on fielder's choice by Korina Rosario, but Mason sped around third on the play and scored to make it a 5-0 game.

Harrod hit an RBI double into the left field corner to score Rosario and Warren's two-run home run to right ended the game for the 8-0 Florida State win.

Jessie Warren Ties ACC Record As FSU Tops Alabama/Georgia State.
The senior matches the ACC career mark in runs batted in with 228.

TUSCALOOSA, AL - Senior Jessie Warren continued her impressive offensive career, hitting a home run in both games on Saturday as No. 9 Florida State (12-4) earned a 3-1 win over No. 10 Alabama (9-2) and topped Georgia State (7-8) by a score of 8-0 in six innings on Saturday night at the Easton Bama Bash.

King (6-2) allowed one run with five hits and one walk in her complete-game victory over the Crimson Tide.

Game 2: No. 9 Florida State 8, Georgia State 0 (6 innings)
The Seminole freshmen were the highlights early in game two against Georgia State as Sydney Sherrill gave FSU a 1-0 lead with a solo home run to center in the fourth inning. Redshirt freshman Elizabeth Mason hit a solo home run of her own to lead off the FSU fifth inning and Sherrill later followed with an RBI single in the inning.

Kylee Hanson controlled the game in the circle for the Seminoles, tossing seven strikeouts in the first three innings, including all three outs in the top of the first.

She finished with nine strikeouts in the complete-game 6.0-inning victory, scattering three hits and two walks.

Florida State scored four runs in the bottom of the sixth to close out the game with a run-rule victory. Mason added another extra-base hit with a one-out double to left center. Anna Shelnutt walked, but was retired at second on fielder's choice by Korina Rosario, but Mason sped around third on the play and scored to make it a 5-0 game.

Harrod hit an RBI double into the left field corner to score Rosario and Warren's two-run home run to right ended the game for the 8-0 Florida State win.

Seminoles Drop Two On Day One of Unconquered Invitational.
No. 13 Florida State loses 1-0 in 10 innings to Hofstra, and falls to No. 6 Oregon, 5-0, on Friday.

TALLAHASSEE, FL - Opening the Unconquered Invitational against a pair of teams that had a combined five pitchers with ERAs under 2.10, the Seminole offense struggled on Friday as No. 13 Florida State (12-6) lost 1-0 to Hofstra (10-4) in 10 innings, before being shutout by No. 6 Oregon (15-3) by a score of 5-0.

"Unlucky in some spots today, but we faced some quality teams this afternoon and just came out on the wrong side," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "This game is a mental battle and we will continue to fight. I know we are doing some really good things, making some adjustments and we'll take all of this forward with us. Tomorrow is a new day and I'm looking forward to getting back in the dugout with this squad."

Game 1: Hofstra 1, No. 13 Florida State 0 (10 innings)
Offense was at a premium in the first game of the day as a sacrifice fly in the tenth inning proved to be the difference in Hofstra's 1-0 win.

FSU's Kylee Hanson was very efficient in the circle and faced the minimum amount of batters until the eighth inning. Hofstra got its first baserunner on an FSU error in the third inning, but a double play by Cali Harrod, Sydney Sherrill and Carson Gordon ended the inning.

In the fourth inning, the Pride had their first base hit of the game, and after a sacrifice bunt moved her to second with one out, the Seminoles got out of the inning on a double play started by Korina Rosario on a flyout to left center as the senior threw out the runner trying to tag to third.

Hanson (6-3) finished with a season-high 13 strikeouts for the game, including striking out the side in the fifth and seventh innings. She allowed just three hits and did not walk anyone in her 10.0 innings pitched.

The Seminole offense struggled to find a foothold against Hofstra starting pitcher Sarah Cornell. Gordon and Cassidy Davis started the FSU second inning with infield singles, but a trio of strikeouts left them stranded. Davis and Sherrill hit doubles in the fourth and sixth innings, respectively, but were not able to progress further.

Davis nearly ended the game twice for the Seminoles, but narrowly missed each chance as she led off the bottom of the seventh with a long fly ball to left that was caught at the wall. The sophomore came to the plate in the ninth inning with runners on first and second, after Jessie Warren and Gordon reached on walks, but her batted ball up the middle was snagged by the Hofstra 2B to start an inning-ending double play.

Hofstra scored the game's only run in the tenth inning after a leadoff double by Brittany Allocca. She was moved up to third on a sacrifice bunt and scored on a sacrifice fly by Sarah Edwards. The Seminoles managed a single in the bottom of the tenth from Zoe Casas, but could not extend the game.

Game 2: No. 6 Oregon 5, No. 13 Florida State 0
The Seminoles recorded their third double play of the day in the first inning against Oregon, as after a one-out single by Alexis Mack, FSU's Meghan King got Shannon Rhodes to line into an inning-ending double play at first.

Harrod led off the FSU first with an infield single, and Warren followed with a single up the middle. Harrod tried to take third on the play but lost her footing around second base and was retired on the play.

That was the last base hit for the Seminoles as Oregon starter Miranda Elish only allowed three more runners for the remainder of the game on walks to Sherrill and Davis, along with Casas reaching on an error in the fourth.

King (6-3) gave up a solo home run to Oregon's Gwen Svekis to start the second inning, and after a walk was replaced in the circle by Cassidy Davis. King finished with two hits over 1.0 innings with two runs allowed, one walk and one strikeout. Davis scattered three hits over 4.1 innings, allowing two runs and two walks with two strikeouts in her relief appearance.

Tessa Daniels allowed a run on two hits over 0.2 innings with a walk, while Savanna Copeland pitched the final 1.0 of the game for the Noles, recording a pair of strikeouts.

Noles Take Two On Saturday In Unconquered Invitational.
No. 13 Florida tops Florida Gulf Coast, 6-2, before posting a 5-0 shutout against Hofstra.

TALLAHASSEE, FL - Fighting back from Friday's setback, No. 13 Florida State (14-6) earned a pair of wins on Saturday in day two of the Unconquered Invitational with a 6-2 victory over Florida Gulf Coast (13-3) before closing the day with a 5-0 shutout against Hofstra (10-6).

FSU's Jessie Warren tallied three RBI on the day to increase her career total to 231, setting an ACC record. The senior surpassed Whitney Haller who posted 228 for Georgia Tech from 2006-09.

"Outstanding way to answer back after how yesterday went," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "We know this game is a game of failure and in order to be successful, you need to push through that adversity. We made some adjustments both prior to the game and in game and it was great to see everyone be focused on the process and being present for each pitch. One more game tomorrow and I am excited to face Oregon again."

Game 1: No. 13 Florida State 6, Florida Gulf Coast 2
The Seminoles took an early 2-0 lead in the bottom of the first against the Eagles as freshman Sydney Sherrill opening the scoring with a solo home run to left field. The inning continued with a single by Carsyn Gordon and a walk to Cassidy Davis, and Elizabeth Mason hit an RBI double into the left field corner on the first pitch of her at bat.

Sherrill helped add to the FSU lead in the third inning by leading off with the first triple of her career to right. Gordon followed with her second base hit of the day, driving in Sherrill on an RBI single to right field for a 3-0 FSU lead.

Sabrina Stutsman hit her first career home run to right in the bottom of the fifth to extend the lead to 5-0, driving in Mason who drew a walk earlier in the inning.

FSU starter Kylee Hanson had a very clean start, allowing just two hits and a walk through the first 5.0 innings of the game, before being replaced in the circle by freshman Savanna Copeland for the top of the sixth.

Copeland allowed the first three batters she faced to reach on infield singles to load the bases and an RBI fielder's choice to short brought in the first run of the game for Florida Gulf Coast. The Eagles added another on an RBI single up the middle by Brooke Clemens, ending Copeland's day in the circle as Hanson re-entered to pitch for the Seminoles.

Hanson (7-3) struck out the next two batters she faced to end the sixth inning and closed out the seventh with three more strikeouts to secure the win. She finished with 12 strikeouts in her 6.2 innings pitched in the win.

The Seminoles added another run in the bottom of the sixth utilizing Harrod's speed as the junior beat out an infield single to short, stole second, tagged and advanced on a fly out to right and easily came in to score on a single through the left side by Sherrill.

Sherrill finished a double short of the cycle on 3-for-4 hitting with two RBI and two runs scored. The freshman leads the Seminoles with a .414 batting average and half of her 24 hits this season have gone for extra bases as she has eight doubles, a triple and three home runs.

Game 2: No. 13 Florida State 5, Hofstra 0
Florida State scored again in the first inning, taking a quick 1-0 lead on an RBI single by Sherrill, driving in Harrod who opened the game with a single to center.

A four-run second inning broke open the game for Florida State, highlighted by a bases-clearing double by Warren to push the Seminole lead to 5-0.

Singles by Stutsman and Korina Rosario, along with a walk from Leslie Farris, loaded the bases earlier in the inning, setting the stage for Harrod to drive in a run with a bases-loaded walk of her own.

Seminole starter Meghan King combined with Davis to toss a one-hitter, keeping the Pride batters off-balance all game. King (7-3) finished with five strikeouts over five innings, allowing just one hit and two walks, while Davis tossed the final 2.0 innings, retiring all six batters she faced, including two strikeouts.

Noles Take Two On Saturday In Unconquered Invitational.
No. 13 Florida tops Florida Gulf Coast, 6-2, before posting a 5-0 shutout against Hofstra.

TALLAHASSEE, FL - Fighting back from Friday's setback, No. 13 Florida State (14-6) earned a pair of wins on Saturday in day two of the Unconquered Invitational with a 6-2 victory over Florida Gulf Coast (13-3) before closing the day with a 5-0 shutout against Hofstra (10-6).

FSU's Jessie Warren tallied three RBI on the day to increase her career total to 231, setting an ACC record. The senior surpassed Whitney Haller who posted 228 for Georgia Tech from 2006-09.

"Outstanding way to answer back after how yesterday went," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "We know this game is a game of failure and in order to be successful, you need to push through that adversity. We made some adjustments both prior to the game and in game and it was great to see everyone be focused on the process and being present for each pitch. One more game tomorrow and I am excited to face Oregon again."

Game 1: No. 13 Florida State 6, Florida Gulf Coast 2
The Seminoles took an early 2-0 lead in the bottom of the first against the Eagles as freshman Sydney Sherrill opening the scoring with a solo home run to left field. The inning continued with a single by Carsyn Gordon and a walk to Cassidy Davis, and Elizabeth Mason hit an RBI double into the left field corner on the first pitch of her at bat.

Sherrill helped add to the FSU lead in the third inning by leading off with the first triple of her career to right. Gordon followed with her second base hit of the day, driving in Sherrill on an RBI single to right field for a 3-0 FSU lead.

Sabrina Stutsman hit her first career home run to right in the bottom of the fifth to extend the lead to 5-0, driving in Mason who drew a walk earlier in the inning.

FSU starter Kylee Hanson had a very clean start, allowing just two hits and a walk through the first 5.0 innings of the game, before being replaced in the circle by freshman Savanna Copeland for the top of the sixth.

Copeland allowed the first three batters she faced to reach on infield singles to load the bases and an RBI fielder's choice to short brought in the first run of the game for Florida Gulf Coast. The Eagles added another on an RBI single up the middle by Brooke Clemens, ending Copeland's day in the circle as Hanson re-entered to pitch for the Seminoles.

Hanson (7-3) struck out the next two batters she faced to end the sixth inning and closed out the seventh with three more strikeouts to secure the win. She finished with 12 strikeouts in her 6.2 innings pitched in the win.

The Seminoles added another run in the bottom of the sixth utilizing Harrod's speed as the junior beat out an infield single to short, stole second, tagged and advanced on a fly out to right and easily came in to score on a single through the left side by Sherrill.

Sherrill finished a double short of the cycle on 3-for-4 hitting with two RBI and two runs scored. The freshman leads the Seminoles with a .414 batting average and half of her 24 hits this season have gone for extra bases as she has eight doubles, a triple and three home runs.

Game 2: No. 13 Florida State 5, Hofstra 0
Florida State scored again in the first inning, taking a quick 1-0 lead on an RBI single by Sherrill, driving in Harrod who opened the game with a single to center.

A four-run second inning broke open the game for Florida State, highlighted by a bases-clearing double by Warren to push the Seminole lead to 5-0.

Singles by Stutsman and Korina Rosario, along with a walk from Leslie Farris, loaded the bases earlier in the inning, setting the stage for Harrod to drive in a run with a bases-loaded walk of her own.

Seminole starter Meghan King combined with Davis to toss a one-hitter, keeping the Pride batters off-balance all game. King (7-3) finished with five strikeouts over five innings, allowing just one hit and two walks, while Davis tossed the final 2.0 innings, retiring all six batters she faced, including two strikeouts.

No. 13 Florida State Takes Down No. 6 Oregon.
The Seminoles came from behind in Sunday's 2-1 win over the Ducks.

TALLAHASSEE, FL - Redeeming Friday's shutout loss to the Ducks, No. 13 Florida State (15-6) came from behind to earn a 2-1 win on Sunday against No. 6 Oregon (18-4) on the final day of the Unconquered Invitational at JoAnne Graf Field.

"We preach focus, making adjustments and having a next pitch mentality, and we saw all three of those today," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "Going down early, I saw the team dig in and continue to take chances and take advantage of opportunities. We've had a couple of losses this season, but each time we faced that team again this season, like against Michigan or Alabama or Oregon, we've come out with a win. So I'm really pleased with how as a complete team and staff we are able to find the ways to improve and change and move forward. Great way to end the weekend."

Oregon threatened in the first inning, loading the bases with two outs on an infield single, a fielder's choice and a walk. FSU starting pitcher Meghan King got out of the jam with a strikeout to Mia Camuso to end the inning.

The Ducks opened the scoring in the second inning, sparked by a leadoff single by Shaye Bowden. A walk and a sacrifice bunt moved the runners up to second and third, and an RBI single by Jenna Lilley gave Oregon a 1-0 lead. After a groundout, Kylee Hanson entered to pitch for King and got out of the inning with a pop out to second base.

The Seminoles scored a pair of runs in the bottom of the fourth to take a 2-1 lead. Jessie Warren was hit by a pitch and a grounder to short by Sydney Sherrill went through the legs of Oregon SS DJ Sanders, allowing the runners to end up on second and third.

Carsyn Gordon tied the game on a fielder's choice to short as the throw home was not able to beat Warren. After a walk to Cassidy Davis loaded the bases, Elizabeth Mason hit a sacrifice fly to left to make it 2-1 Florida State.

Hanson pitched outstanding in relief, retiring 16 of the 17 batters she faced to win her eighth game of the season. The redshirt senior was aided by double plays in the fourth and sixth innings to stifle the Oregon offense. Hanson allowed just two hits and zero walks with three strikeouts over the final 5.1 innings of the game. King pitched 1.2 innings in her start, giving up three hits, two walks and a run with one strikeout.

For the weekend, the Seminoles recorded seven double plays and now have 10 twin-killings through the first 21 games of the season.

Florida State Shuts Out Penn.
The Seminoles post a 12-0 victory in five innings over Penn on Thursday afternoon.

CLEARWATER, FL - Scoring fast and playing quality defense carried No. 15 Florida State (16-6) to a 12-0 in five innings over Penn (1-10) on Thursday afternoon at Eddie C. Moore Field.

The game was also a meeting between two Hall of Famers as Penn head coach Leslie King and FSU assistant coach Travis Wilson were both inducted into the Softball New Zealand Hall of Fame in 2017.

The Seminoles got on the board quickly as the first six batters all reached base before recording an out in the top of the first inning. Cali Harrod opened the game with a walk and Jessie Warren was hit by a pitch. Sydney Sherrill lined a RBI single to right center and Carsyn Gordon hit an RBI single up the middle for a 2-0 lead.

Cassidy Davis reached on a Penn throwing error and Elizabeth Mason followed with a walk. Sabrina Stutsman was hit by a pitch to load the bases and Harrod's second walk of the inning made it a 5-0 game. Warren closed out the scoring in the inning with a three-run triple to right field.

Davis hit a solo home run in the FSU second inning and the Noles added three more runs in the third. Zoe Casas led off with a walk and Warren followed with an infield single. Gordon had her second RBI single of the game, and Davis made it 12-0 Seminoles with a two-out double to left center.

FSU's Savanna Copeland (1-0) made her first career start, giving up just two hits and a walk over 4.0 innings with three strikeouts. Davis closed out the game with a scoreless inning, allowing one walk.

Lonni Alameda Earns Win No. 600 As FSU Sweeps UNF.
The Seminoles take both games of Saturday's doubleheader as Alameda reaches another coaching milestone.

JACKSONVILLE, FL - In her 10th season at Florida State and 15th as a head coach in Division I softball, Lonni Alameda earned win No. 600 on Saturday as No. 15 Florida State (18-6) earned a pair of wins over North Florida (13-11) in a doubleheader at the UNF Softball Complex. The Seminoles shutout the Ospreys 13-0 in game one, before earning a 9-6 victory in game two.

Alameda is now 600-302-2 in her head coaching career, including a 443-144-1 mark at the helm of Florida State. She is averaging 48 wins per year at FSU and has been named the ACC Coach of the Year in each of the last five seasons.

"I love what I do," said Alameda. "That's what makes this easy to pour my life into every day. Working with a great staff and so many amazing student-athletes makes it fun and so enjoyable to compete every season and grow the game. I don't really track these things and didn't really know this was coming up, but this is more of an accomplishment for the players on the field. Today, we were scrappy and competitive in both games and worked through some challenging situations. Looking forward to a little break before ACCs start next weekend."

Game 1: No. 15 Florida State 13, North Florida 0
The Seminoles threatened in the top of the first inning as Jessie Warren drew a one-out walk and Sydney Sherrill followed with an infield single. Carsyn Gordon hit a single to right, but the throw home by UNF's Ashley Niesman retired Warren at the plate to keep the Noles off the board in the first.

Florida State opened the scoring in the second inning as Cali Harrod led off by reaching on an Osprey throwing error. Anna Shelnutt was hit by a pitch and Sherrill gave the Noles a 1-0 lead with a double to center. Gordon followed with an RBI groundout, but it was enough to score Shelnutt to make it 2-0 FSU.

Dani Morgan continued the inning with a two-out walk and another UNF error on a batted ball by Elizabeth Mason allowed two more runs to score for a 4-0 lead.

FSU starting pitcher Kylee Hanson did not allow a base hit until the bottom of the third inning when Rindy Bryant hit a one-out double to right center. It snapped a streak of 12.1 consecutive innings by the Florida State pitching staff of not allowing a runner to reach second base. The inning quickly ended as the next batter flew out to right, but Bryant did not stay on the base, which resulted in an easy 9-4-6 inning-ending double play.

The Seminoles added two more in the fourth inning as Harrod singled to left and scored on a triple to right center by Shelnutt. Sherrill posted her third hit of the day, driving an RBI single through the right side to make it 6-0 Florida State. FSU added a solo home run in the top of the sixth by Shelnutt.

Hanson was replaced in the circle to start the UNF sixth inning by Cassidy Davis. The redshirt senior improved to 9-3 on the season, tossing 5.0 scoreless innings with just one hit, two walks and five strikeouts.

The Seminoles tacked on six more runs in the seventh inning for the 13-0 final score. Morgan led off with a check-swing single to third base and Mason followed with a towering home run to left field. Sabrina Stutsman walked and was pinch-run for by Deja Bush, and Bush scored on RBI double by Shelnutt. Back-to-back RBI doubles by Sherrill and Gordon, along with another UNF error scored the final three runs of the game.

Davis closed out the game with a perfect seventh inning, retiring all six batters she faced on the afternoon.

Game 2: No. 15 Florida State 9, North Florida 6
Florida State used crafty baserunning to take a quick 2-0 lead in the top of the first inning in game two. Harrod led off with a single and Gordon followed with a hit-by-pitch. The pair of them executed a double steal and Harrod scored on a UNF throwing error. A fielder's choice off the bat of Shelnutt started with Gordon getting in a rundown between third and home, then Mason got in a run down between second and third. That cycle repeated for both runners before Gordon was able to score on the play for the second run of the game.

UNF nearly scored in the bottom of the first as Navia Penrod led off with a single and moved up to second on a groundout. A single to left by Dominica Cocuzza was fielded by Morgan in left and the sophomore fired home to retire Penrod at the plate to end the inning.

Korina Rosario opened the FSU second inning with a walk and immediately stole second base. Harrod drove an RBI single up the middle to make it a 3-0 Seminole lead. Shelnutt had a single to start the third inning and later scored on a sacrifice fly by Davis.

Meghan King was extremely efficient in the circle for the Seminoles, needing just 20 pitches to record the first 10 outs of the game, including a perfect three-pitch inning in the second inning.

The Ospreys scored their first run of the game in the bottom of the fourth on an RBI double by Alex Arciola. It snapped a streak of 21.1 innings without allowing a run for the FSU pitching staff.

Florida State scored two more in the top of the fifth, sparked by a leadoff double by Shelnutt. Davis singled up the middle to drive in a run and Benavides added the second run on a sacrifice fly to right. Sherrill added a solo home run in the sixth and a RBI double by Morgan scored Mason, who doubled earlier in the inning for an 8-1 lead for the Noles.

Savanna Copeland replaced King in the circle for the bottom of the sixth. King (8-3) finished with 5.0 inning pitched with five hits, one run and zero walks allowed, along with three strikeouts.

UNF scored a pair of runs in the sixth as the first three batters reached base. A leadoff walk and a single was converted into runs with a two-RBI double by Cocuzza. Copeland got out of the inning with a pop out and a pair of strikeouts.

The Noles scored again in the top of the seventh to make it a 9-3 game. Harrod drew a two-out walk and stole second base for her fourth SB of the game. It marked the first four-SB game since Morgan Klaevemann against Nebraska on February 17, 2017. Gordon hit an RBI double to center to finish the FSU scoring.

The Ospreys rallied for three runs in the bottom of the seventh, before falling 9-6. The UNF leadoff batter was hit by a pitch and the Ospreys followed with a double and an infield single to load the bases. A pair of RBI infield groundouts cut the FSU lead to 9-5, and Cocuzza singled to right to score another run, but was thrown out trying to stretch a double to end the game.

Copeland allowed five runs on five hits over 2.0 innings with one walk and two strikeouts in her relief appearance.

Lonni Alameda Earns Win No. 600 As FSU Sweeps UNF.
The Seminoles take both games of Saturday's doubleheader as Alameda reaches another coaching milestone.

JACKSONVILLE, FL - In her 10th season at Florida State and 15th as a head coach in Division I softball, Lonni Alameda earned win No. 600 on Saturday as No. 15 Florida State (18-6) earned a pair of wins over North Florida (13-11) in a doubleheader at the UNF Softball Complex. The Seminoles shutout the Ospreys 13-0 in game one, before earning a 9-6 victory in game two.

Alameda is now 600-302-2 in her head coaching career, including a 443-144-1 mark at the helm of Florida State. She is averaging 48 wins per year at FSU and has been named the ACC Coach of the Year in each of the last five seasons.

"I love what I do," said Alameda. "That's what makes this easy to pour my life into every day. Working with a great staff and so many amazing student-athletes makes it fun and so enjoyable to compete every season and grow the game. I don't really track these things and didn't really know this was coming up, but this is more of an accomplishment for the players on the field. Today, we were scrappy and competitive in both games and worked through some challenging situations. Looking forward to a little break before ACCs start next weekend."

Game 1: No. 15 Florida State 13, North Florida 0
The Seminoles threatened in the top of the first inning as Jessie Warren drew a one-out walk and Sydney Sherrill followed with an infield single. Carsyn Gordon hit a single to right, but the throw home by UNF's Ashley Niesman retired Warren at the plate to keep the Noles off the board in the first.

Florida State opened the scoring in the second inning as Cali Harrod led off by reaching on an Osprey throwing error. Anna Shelnutt was hit by a pitch and Sherrill gave the Noles a 1-0 lead with a double to center. Gordon followed with an RBI groundout, but it was enough to score Shelnutt to make it 2-0 FSU.

Dani Morgan continued the inning with a two-out walk and another UNF error on a batted ball by Elizabeth Mason allowed two more runs to score for a 4-0 lead.

FSU starting pitcher Kylee Hanson did not allow a base hit until the bottom of the third inning when Rindy Bryant hit a one-out double to right center. It snapped a streak of 12.1 consecutive innings by the Florida State pitching staff of not allowing a runner to reach second base. The inning quickly ended as the next batter flew out to right, but Bryant did not stay on the base, which resulted in an easy 9-4-6 inning-ending double play.

The Seminoles added two more in the fourth inning as Harrod singled to left and scored on a triple to right center by Shelnutt. Sherrill posted her third hit of the day, driving an RBI single through the right side to make it 6-0 Florida State. FSU added a solo home run in the top of the sixth by Shelnutt.

Hanson was replaced in the circle to start the UNF sixth inning by Cassidy Davis. The redshirt senior improved to 9-3 on the season, tossing 5.0 scoreless innings with just one hit, two walks and five strikeouts.

The Seminoles tacked on six more runs in the seventh inning for the 13-0 final score. Morgan led off with a check-swing single to third base and Mason followed with a towering home run to left field. Sabrina Stutsman walked and was pinch-run for by Deja Bush, and Bush scored on RBI double by Shelnutt. Back-to-back RBI doubles by Sherrill and Gordon, along with another UNF error scored the final three runs of the game.

Davis closed out the game with a perfect seventh inning, retiring all six batters she faced on the afternoon.

Game 2: No. 15 Florida State 9, North Florida 6
Florida State used crafty baserunning to take a quick 2-0 lead in the top of the first inning in game two. Harrod led off with a single and Gordon followed with a hit-by-pitch. The pair of them executed a double steal and Harrod scored on a UNF throwing error. A fielder's choice off the bat of Shelnutt started with Gordon getting in a rundown between third and home, then Mason got in a run down between second and third. That cycle repeated for both runners before Gordon was able to score on the play for the second run of the game.

UNF nearly scored in the bottom of the first as Navia Penrod led off with a single and moved up to second on a groundout. A single to left by Dominica Cocuzza was fielded by Morgan in left and the sophomore fired home to retire Penrod at the plate to end the inning.

Korina Rosario opened the FSU second inning with a walk and immediately stole second base. Harrod drove an RBI single up the middle to make it a 3-0 Seminole lead. Shelnutt had a single to start the third inning and later scored on a sacrifice fly by Davis.

Meghan King was extremely efficient in the circle for the Seminoles, needing just 20 pitches to record the first 10 outs of the game, including a perfect three-pitch inning in the second inning.

The Ospreys scored their first run of the game in the bottom of the fourth on an RBI double by Alex Arciola. It snapped a streak of 21.1 innings without allowing a run for the FSU pitching staff.

Florida State scored two more in the top of the fifth, sparked by a leadoff double by Shelnutt. Davis singled up the middle to drive in a run and Benavides added the second run on a sacrifice fly to right. Sherrill added a solo home run in the sixth and a RBI double by Morgan scored Mason, who doubled earlier in the inning for an 8-1 lead for the Noles.

Savanna Copeland replaced King in the circle for the bottom of the sixth. King (8-3) finished with 5.0 inning pitched with five hits, one run and zero walks allowed, along with three strikeouts.

UNF scored a pair of runs in the sixth as the first three batters reached base. A leadoff walk and a single was converted into runs with a two-RBI double by Cocuzza. Copeland got out of the inning with a pop out and a pair of strikeouts.

The Noles scored again in the top of the seventh to make it a 9-3 game. Harrod drew a two-out walk and stole second base for her fourth SB of the game. It marked the first four-SB game since Morgan Klaevemann against Nebraska on February 17, 2017. Gordon hit an RBI double to center to finish the FSU scoring.

The Ospreys rallied for three runs in the bottom of the seventh, before falling 9-6. The UNF leadoff batter was hit by a pitch and the Ospreys followed with a double and an infield single to load the bases. A pair of RBI infield groundouts cut the FSU lead to 9-5, and Cocuzza singled to right to score another run, but was thrown out trying to stretch a double to end the game.

Copeland allowed five runs on five hits over 2.0 innings with one walk and two strikeouts in her relief appearance.

Kylee Hanson Strikes Out 10 As Noles Shutout Hokies.
Florida State blanks Virginia Tech, 2-0, on Friday night to open the three-game series.

TALLAHASSEE, FL - Making her first appearance in an ACC game, Kylee Hanson looked right at home in her new conference as the redshirt senior recorded 10 strikeouts in a complete-game victory for No. 15 Florida State (19-6, 1-0 ACC) in a 2-0 win over Virginia Tech (11-13, 1-3 ACC) on Friday night at JoAnne Graf Field.

Sydney Sherrill's two-run home run in the bottom of the fifth inning proved to be the difference in a game that had just six combined hits from the two teams.

The win increases Florida State's ACC winning streak to 27 games, dating back to 2016. Only nine players on the current 22-member FSU softball roster have ever lost an ACC game as the Seminoles have won the ACC regular season title in each of the last five seasons.

"Kylee had a great performance today and she is just getting better and better every time out," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "Offensively, it took us a while to get going, but we were able to make adjustments each inning, so it was a little later in the game that we got our swings off. But it just takes one person. The game doesn't know if it is a freshman, an All-American or a slapper, and the whole team is buying into that one-pitch mentality."

The Seminoles got a runner to third base in the first inning, but could not bring her in. Jessie Warren hit a one-out single to right and was pinch-run for by Deja Bush. Bush stole second base and moved up to third on a groundout, but would be left stranded.

Florida State threatened in the fourth inning, putting runners on second and third after a walk to Carsyn Gordon, a single by Anna Shelnutt and a groundout, but both were left on base as the game remained tied at 0-0.

The Seminoles broke through in the bottom of the fifth inning as Sydney Sherrill hit her fifth home run of the season, a two-run shot to left center to give Florida State a 2-0 lead. Leslie Farris reached on a Virginia Tech fielding error to lead off the inning and was replaced at first base on a fielder's choice by Cali Harrod. Harrod scored on the home run for her team-leading 19th run scored this season.

FSU starting pitcher Kylee Hanson was outstanding in the circle on Friday night, striking out six of the first eight batters she faced and did not allow a base hit until a one-out single by Caroline Schoenewald in the top of the fourth inning. Hanson improved to 10-3 on the season, scattering three hits and two walks with 10 total strikeouts.

Hanson has not allowed a run in her last 24.1 innings and has only allowed two runners to even reach second base during that span. She currently leads the ACC with a 0.84 ERA and is limiting opponents to a .135 batting average.

Jessie Warren Moves Up NCAA Record Book As Noles Top Virginia Tech.
The third baseman finished with a home run and three RBI on the afternoon. TALLAHASSEE, FL - Senior Jessie Warren continued to climb up the NCAA record books on Saturday as No. 15 Florida State (20-6, 2-0 ACC) posted an 8-3 victory over Virginia Tech (11-14, 1-4 ACC) at JoAnne Graf Field.

The third baseman hit a two-run home run in the third inning and finished with three RBI on the afternoon. The home run was the 71st of her career, moving her into a tie for 18th in NCAA history with five other players, including UCF's Stephanie Best and Florida's Lauren Haeger for the most home runs hit by a player from the state of Florida. The three RBI increased her career total to 237, which ranks 25th in NCAA softball history.

Saturday's game was also part of Alumni Weekend, which honored the storied past of Florida State softball. The Seminoles also announced that, beginning in 2019, the first home tournament every season will be named the "JoAnne Graf Classic", in honor of the NFCA Hall of Fame coach that won 1,437 games in her career, including 10 ACC titles, seven WCWS appearances and AIAW National Championships in 1981 and 1982.

"You are talking about a legend, not just at Florida State, but in the entire game of softball with how she has grown the game around the country," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "So many teams have come down to play in Tallahassee over the years because of the relationship they had with her. So it was a no-brainer to name the tournament after her because of who she is and the program she helped create. To be able to honor her and announce this on Alumni weekend with so many of her former players here to share in it was special.

"Virginia Tech had good numbers coming in with their pitching and we knew we'd have a challenge with the lefty, but it was great to see the kids work adjustments through the game. It was good to get the win today, as the goal is to win every series, but it comes from having a gameplan in each and every day. So we'll need to stay focused to come out and finish it tomorrow."

Florida State got on the board quickly as Carsyn Gordon hit a one-out triple to right in the bottom of the first. Sydney Sherrill was hit by a pitch a batter later and Warren opened the scoring with an RBI groundout to second base. A pair of wild pitches from VT starter Jordan Dail scored Sherrill to make it 2-0 FSU after the first inning.

Virginia Tech's Carrie Eberle led off the top of the second with a home run to left center to cut the Seminole lead to 2-1.

Florida State bounced back with three runs in the third inning, all with two outs. Sherrill drew a walk, stole second base and scored on Warren's home run to right center. Cassidy Davis followed with a solo home run of her own for a 5-1 advantage.

The Noles scored a pair of runs in the fourth inning, as Dani Morgan led off with a walk, stole second and scored on a RBI double to center by Elizabeth Mason. Mason stole third base and there was no one at the base to receive the throw and she easily scored as the ball sailed into left field.

Florida State made it 8-1 in the bottom of the fifth as Davis ended up on second after the VT left fielder dropped a fly out to the warning track. She was pinch-run for by Korina Rosario, who easily scored on a single through the left side by Anna Shelnutt.

Meghan King (9-3) was consistent in the circle for the Noles, giving up just four hits, one run, one walk with seven strikeouts before being replaced by Davis for the Virginia Tech seventh.

The Hokies got a pair of singles with one out and a two-run double from Hannah Jones made it an 8-3 game. Davis got the final two hitters to ground out to close out the win.

Another 10K Performance From Kylee Hanson Helps FSU Sweep VT.
For the second time this weekend, Hanson finishes with double-digit strikeouts against the Hokies.

TALLAHASSEE, FL - Extending their conference winning streak to 29 games, No. 15 Florida State (21-6, 3-0 ACC) closed out the weekend sweep of Virginia Tech (11-15, 1-5 ACC) with a 6-2 win on Sunday afternoon at JoAnne Graf Field.

It is the 32nd sweep in the last 42 ACC series for Florida State, as the Seminoles improve to 110-10 in their last 120 conference games. The Seminoles have won 12 straight over the Hokies, and 18 of the last 19, dating back to 2012.

Kylee Hanson struck out 10 batters for the second-straight game and has reached double digits in strikeouts in four of her last six games. The redshirt senior extended her scoreless streak to 30.1 innings, tossing 6.0 shutout innings with just four hits and one walk on Sunday.

"Winning the series is a big accomplishment and getting the sweep is awesome," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "We're still growing as team and that is the fun thing about it right now as we are different every weekend out. There are some little things to tie up and some young kids in different positions that I expect that each at bat and each situation they are going to get better. Wasn't the cleanest of games, but we got it done and pretty excited about the scrappiness that we had."

Much like Friday's series opener, FSU's Hanson and VT's Carrie Eberle made it difficult on hitters as neither team got a base hit until Leslie Farris opened up the Seminole third inning with a single. Cali Harrod followed with an infield single and the pair moved up to second and third on a wild pitch. The Noles brought in a pair of runs later in the inning without a ball leaving the infield as Carsyn Gordon had an RBI groundout to first and Sydney Sherrill reached on a fielder's choice as Harrod slid under the tag at home.

The Seminoles added four more runs in the fifth inning, all with two outs, to extend their lead to 6-0. Sherrill singled through the right side and stole second for her second SB of the game. Cassidy Davis walked and was pinch-run for by Korina Rosario and Anna Shelnutt brought in both runners with a double to right center.

Casas singled up the middle to score Shelnutt and she was pinch-run for by Deja Bush. Bush quickly stole second, but advanced to third and scored on back-to-back wild pitches by VT reliever Jordan Dail.

Virginia Tech did not record a hit off Hanson until a two-out single in the fourth inning by Emma Strouth. For the fifth straight game, Hanson did not allow a runner past second base and improved to 11-3 on the season with a 0.78 ERA.

Cassidy Davis pitched the seventh inning for the Noles and gave up a pair of runs as the Hokies started the inning with three consecutive base hits, including a double by Hannah Jones. The sophomore settled in to retire the next three batters on two groundouts and a strikeout to secure the victory.

Offensive Display By Seminoles In Pair Of Run-Rule Wins Over Troy.
No. 14 Florida State scored 21 total runs in two six-inning victories against Troy on Wednesday night.

TALLAHASSEE, FL - Extending its winning streak to 11 games, No. 14 Florida State (23-6) put on an offensive show in a pair of doubleheader victories over Troy (17-12). The Seminoles defeated the Trojans in six innings in each game, posting a 12-2 win in game one and a 9-1 victory in game two on Wednesday night at JoAnne Graf Field.

For the day, FSU tallied eight extra-base hits on three doubles, a triple and four home runs, including a career-high two home runs and six RBI in game one by sophomore Cassidy Davis. In all, seven different Seminoles recorded an RBI on the day and nine total players reached base.

"When you are coming off an ACC series, these midweek games can be tough," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "You are a little tired and you have to figure out how to make that happen. We had some good swings by a lot of people and a lot of opportunities off the bench, too. Definitely a good pair of wins tonight."

Game 1: No. 14 Florida State 12, Troy 2 (6 Innings)
Home runs were the name of the game in the opener of Wednesday's doubleheader, as the Seminoles got on the board with a solo home run by Elizabeth Mason in the bottom of the second inning.

Troy came back to take a 2-1 lead in the top of the third inning as a one-out walk and double put Trojans on second and third and Madeline Porter drove them both on a single up the middle. FSU starter Meghan King got out of the inning with a pop out and a strikeout.

After King added a pair of strikeouts in the top of the fourth inning, Davis hit her first home run of the game in the bottom of the inning, a two-run shot to center to score Deja Bush, who pinch ran after a single by Anna Shelnutt.

Sydney Sherrill hit a two-run home run in the bottom of the fifth to make it a 5-2 game, scoring Carsyn Gordon who reached on a walk. Later in the inning, Zoe Casas reached on an infield single to the pitcher and scored on a two-out single to left by Davis.

The Seminoles plated six runs in the bottom of the sixth to secure the run-rule victory. Leslie Farris led off the inning with a single up the middle and after a walk to Cali Harrod, an RBI double to right center by Gordon scored Farris for a 7-2 lead. Sherrill drove a two-run single up the middle and a walk to Shelnutt set the stage for Davis to end the game with a three-run home run off the Seminole head at the top of the scoreboard in right center for a 12-2 victory.

King (10-3) retired the final eight batters she faced and finished with seven strikeouts over 6.0 innings in the complete-game victory. She scattered seven hits and one walk and gave up two runs.

Game 2: No. 14 Florida State 9, Troy 1 (6 Innings)
The Seminoles quickly took a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the first, but did not record a hit as Troy starter Annie Willis issued three walks, along with a Trojan fielding error in the frame. Mason drew a bases-loaded walk to force home an unearned run and put FSU in front.

FSU starting pitcher Kylee Hanson posted a 1-2-3 inning in the first, but allowed a leadoff walk in the second inning to Stephanie Snyder. A two-out double by Kaylee Hussey put Troy runners on second and third, before the redshirt senior got out of the inning with a fly out to center. It marked the first time in 32.0 innings that Hanson had allowed an opposing base runner to reach third base, dating back to March 2.

A one-out walk to Sherrill in the bottom of the third sparked four consecutive hits, including an RBI double by Mason and RBI singles by Shelnutt and Casas to give the Noles a 4-0 lead.

The Trojans threatened again in the top of the fourth as Katie Webb led off with a double to right center, and a single by Snyder put runners on the corners with nobody out. Hanson struck out the next two batters she faced before a failed double steal attempt ended the inning. Snyder took off for second and Mason's throw down was cut off by Sherrill. A quick relay back to Mason was in time to retire Webb at the plate to end the inning.

The first four Noles in the fourth inning all reached base as Harrod opened with a walk and quickly stole second for her 19th stolen base of the season. A walk to Gordon and an RBI single up the middle by Sherrill made it 5-0 FSU. Davis hit an RBI single through the right side and Mason hit her third sacrifice fly for a 7-0 Seminole lead.

Hanson snapped her scoreless streak at 34.1 innings as Hussey hit a solo home run to start the fifth inning. She struck out two more batters before closing out the inning and ending her day in the circle. The Jupiter, Fla., native recorded eight total strikeouts as she improved to 12-3 on the season and allowed just one run on five hits with one walk in 5.0 innings of work.

Davis pitched the sixth inning for the Noles, pitching around a two-out single in her scoreless relief effort.

Gordon opened the bottom half of the sixth inning with a triple off the wall in left center, her third of the season. She scored on Sherrill's 11th double of the season, which leads the ACC and ranks 11th in the nation. A ground out moved Sherrill to third base with one out and Dani Morgan ended the game with a sacrifice fly to right field for a 9-1 Florida State win.

Zoe Casas’ Sac Fly Gives Noles 1-0 Win Over Syracuse.
No. 14 Florida State wins 30th ACC game in a row with a sixth-inning sacrifice fly.

TALLAHASSEE, FL — Friday’s contest was the pitching duel everyone expected from FSU’s Kylee Hanson and Syracuse’s Alexa Romero, as the pair rank in the top five of eight pitching categories in the ACC, with Romero (128) and Hanson (112) ranking first and second respectively in strikeouts.

The game remained scoreless until the bottom of the sixth inning and a sacrifice fly by Zoe Casas brought in the game’s only run as No. 14 Florida State (24-6, 4-0 ACC) earned a 1-0 victory over Syracuse (15-9, 4-3 ACC) in front of 1,215 fans at JoAnne Graf Field.

Hanson (13-3) struck out 11 in the complete-game victory, giving up just two hits and a walk and tossing only 97 pitches. Romero (10-6) started strong, striking out seven of the first 10 FSU batters she faced and finished the game with eight Ks. She allowed three hits, four walks and hit two batters in the loss.

The victory extended Florida State’s ACC winning streak to 30 games, and is tied with Arizona for the 10th-longest conference winning streak in NCAA history. The Wildcats won 30 Pac-10 games in a row from 1993-94.

“You are going to get their ace on Friday night, and boy, she had some really good stuff,” said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. “We hung in there and had some really good team at bats tonight. That’s something we talk about and how you don’t know who is going to get a swing for the team. So it is awesome that everyone is contributing right now. It isn’t results-driven, but process, and they are starting to believe that. So that was a big win for us.”

Florida State got a pair of runners on in the bottom of the second inning on a leadoff walk by Cassidy Davis and a single by Elizabeth Mason, but a pair of strikeouts left them stranded.

Syracuse used a two-out FSU error and a single by Sammy Fernandez to eventually have Orange runners on second and third, but the Noles got out of the inning unscathed with a fly out to center.

Casas opened the Seminole fifth inning with a single to right and a sacrifice bunt moved her to second with one out. Cali Harrod worked an eight-pitch at bat, and eventually reached on a walk as ball four was well off the plate and the wild pitch allowed FSU runners to get to second and third with two outs. Carsyn Gordon was hit by a pitch, but bases remained full after a strikeout.

The Orange got a pair of runners on in the sixth inning with an infield single and a walk, but a fly out to right left them both stranded.

Korina Rosario drew a walk to lead off the sixth inning for Florida State and Anna Shelnutt was hit by a pitch to put a pair of runners on with nobody out. A groundout moved both into scoring position and Casas drove in the game’s only run with FSU’s 12th sacrifice fly of the season, which is tied for the most in the ACC.

Hanson closed out the game with a perfect seventh inning, capping the frame with a pair of strikeouts. It marked the fifth time she has reached double-digit strikeouts this season and the third time in her last four appearances.

Seminoles Shut Out Syracuse To Secure Series Win.
Florida State blanked the Orange, 6-0, on Saturday afternoon.

TALLAHASSEE, FL — Jumping out to an early 3-0 lead in the first inning, the Seminoles then leaned quality pitching from Meghan King and Savanna Copeland as No. 14 Florida State (25-6, 5-0 ACC) earned a 6-0 victory over Syracuse (15-9, 4-3 ACC) on Saturday afternoon at JoAnne Graf Field.

The win is the 31st-straight ACC win for FSU, which moves the Noles into a tie with Jacksonville State (2015-17) for the ninth-longest conference winning streak in NCAA history.

The victory also secured the series win over the Orange and Florida State extends its conference series unbeaten streak to 43. The Noles are 39-0-4 in ACC series dating back to 2012, with four 1-1 series splits.

“We want to start each game aggressively and I thought we did a great job of taking advantage of some early opportunities,” said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. “Meghan King pitched great and was moving the ball all over the zone. We were patient offensively in drawing a bunch of walks, and then were able to get some good swings to drive them in. We know we’re going to face Romero again tomorrow, so it is a case of who can make the adjustments and improve from Friday to Sunday. I’m really looking forward to it.”

Cali Harrod led off the Seminole first inning with a walk and stole second base for her 20th SB of the season. Sydney Sherrill reached on a fielder’s choice and moved up to second on a stolen base of her own. Elizabeth Mason followed with a two-run double to left center to give the Seminoles a 2-0 lead. Anna Shelnutt wrapped up the scoring in the inning with an RBI groundout to short.

It marked the 13th time that Florida State has scored in the first inning and the Seminoles improved to 13-0 this season in those games. The Noles have scored 38 runs overall in the first inning in 2018, which is the most runs scored in any inning.

The Seminoles added a pair in the fourth inning on a two-RBI single by Sherrill. Leslie Farris started the offense with a one-out single through the left side and Carsyn Gordon followed with her second walk of the game. A passed ball from Syracuse starter Anna Marie Gatti allowed the runners to move up to second and third, before scoring on Sherrill’s base hit to right field.

FSU scored its final run of the game on a sacrifice fly in the fifth inning by Harrod, scoring Korina Rosario, who walked, stole second base and moved to third on a wild pitch earlier in the inning.

Syracuse was unable to hit a ball out of the infield until getting its first base hit of the game off King with one out in the sixth inning on a single by Rachel Burkhardt. The redshirt junior pitcher had retired 16 of the 17 batters she had faced until that point, allowing only one baserunner on an FSU fielding error in the first inning.

King (11-3) wrapped up the inning with her sixth strikeout of the game to end her day in the circle. She gave up just two hits and zero walks in 6.0 shutout innings.

Savanna Copeland pitched the seventh inning for the Seminoles and recorded a strikeout to the first batter she faced. Syracuse got a runner on base with a two-out walk by Andrea Bombace on nine pitches, but Copeland ended the game with a strikeout.

FSU Sweeps Syracuse To Remain Perfect In ACC Play.
The No. 14 Seminoles take game three of the series with Syracuse, 5-4.

TALLAHASSEE, FL — Holding of a late rally by the Orange, No. 14 Florida State (26-6, 6-0 ACC) continued its undefeated start to conference play with a 5-4 win over Syracuse (15-11, 4-5 ACC) on Sunday afternoon at JoAnne Graf Field.

Florida State’s 7-8-9 hitters provided the bulk of the offense in the series finale, as Zoe Casas, Korina Rosario and Leslie Farris batted a combined 5-for-9 with a Casas double, a Farris home run, three RBIs and two runs scored.

The victory marks the 32nd ACC win in a row for Florida State, moving the Seminoles into a tie with Fresno State for the eighth-longest conference winning streak in NCAA history, matching the streak the Bulldogs put together in the Mountain West in 2015-16.

It also completed the 33rd sweep in the last 43 ACC series for FSU, as the Seminoles improved to 113-10 (.919%) in their last 123 regular season conference games, dating back to 2012.

“When you talk about three games in a row, Sunday’s are always going to be mental and emotional games,” said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. “You’ve seen them, they’ve seen you and so it becomes a little more strategic and more mentally exhausting at times. That was a huge sweep for us and Romero is a great pitcher.

“Leslie Farris has been thrown into a lot of positions for us this year and has kept fighting through the mental side of it all with the highs and the lows. With the injuries we’ve had, for her to step in has been awesome. We recruit to versatility and right now we are finding ways to win and everyone is contributing off the bench. That’s been outstanding to build and when we do get our injured players back, we are going to be a strong unit.”

Florida State made Syracuse starter Alexa Romero work in the first inning as the sophomore tossed 23 total pitches, but it was the first one of Carsyn Gordon’s at bat that made the biggest impact as the junior first baseman launched her sixth home run into the trees beyond left field for a 1-0 FSU lead.

Syracuse battled back in the top of the second behind a pair of walks by Bryce Holmgren and Lailoni Mayfield to open the inning. FSU’s Kylee Hanson recorded a strikeout and a flyout before Michala Maciolek hit a double to center that seemed destined to give the Orange the lead, but after Holmgren scored, the relay from Rosario to Sydney Sherrill to Elizabeth Mason gunned down Mayfield at the plate to end the inning tied at 1-1.

The first pitch to Cali Harrod to open the Seminole third inning resulted in FSU’s second run of the game as the junior lined a triple into the gap in right center. The relay from the Syracuse 2B was wide of third base and went out of play to award Harrod home plate and put FSU up 2-1.

The Seminoles broke the game open in the fourth inning, plating three runs. Mason got the inning started with a leadoff walk and ended up on third after a stolen base and a Syracuse throwing error. Rosario drove a two-out RBI single up the middle and Farris followed with her first career home run to extend the lead to 5-1.

Syracuse scored an unearned run in the top of the fifth inning to cut the FSU lead to 5-2. After allowing a leadoff single to Neli Casares-Maher, Hanson was replaced in the circle by Cassidy Davis. The sophomore pitcher struck out the first batter she faced, and a fielder’s choice to third was not caught at second base, allowing the Orange to have runners on the corners with one out. A two-out RBI single to right by Alicia Hansen brought in a run, but Davis got out of the inning with a groundout to short.

Sherrill added to her ACC-leading double total with an extra-base hit to lead off the Seminole fifth inning. It marked her 12th double of the season, which tied for fifth in the NCAA entering the weekend. She would be stranded after SU reliever Miranda Hearn retired the next three batters.

Meghan King came in to pitch for the Noles in the sixth inning and the Orange put runners on the corners with a pair of one-out hits, but King kept Syracuse off the board with a strikeout and a ground out.

The Orange battled until the final out as Jessica Heese drew a walk and Gabby Teran knocked a two-out single to center. The runners moved up to second and third on a failed pickoff attempt at second, and Holmgren brought them both in on a single down the left field line to put the tying run on first base. King ended the game with her third strikeout to secure the 5-4 win.

King earned her first save of the season and sixth of her career, moving into a tie for seventh all-time in FSU history. She finished with 2.0 innings pitched, giving up four hits, two runs, one earned with a walk and three strikeouts.

Hanson won her eighth game in a row to improve to 14-3 on the season, striking out six in 4.0 innings with two hits, two walks, two runs and one earned. Davis faced five batters in her 1.0 innings of shutout relief, allowing one hit and striking out one.

Power Hitting Carries Noles To 13-2 Win Over Georgia Tech.
Eight of Florida State's 12 hits were for extra bases in the run-rule victory on Friday night.

ATLANTA, GA - Entering the game with the ACC's best slugging percentage of .525, No. 14 Florida State (27-6, 7-0 ACC) put that power on display Friday night, smashing eight extra-base hits en route to a 13-2 victory in five innings over Georgia Tech (19-13, 5-2 ACC).

Sydney Sherrill hit a pair of doubles to increase her season total to 14, which is tied for the most in the NCAA entering the weekend. Through just 33 games of the season, Sherrill's 14 doubles now sits in a tie for 10th place in FSU single-season history.

Jessie Warren launched a three-run home run in the fourth inning, her 10th HR of the season and the 72nd of her career, moving into a tie for 17th in NCAA history with Hawaii's Kelly Maja (2010-13).

The win also extended Florida State's ACC winning streak to 33 games, which is tied with Princeton (1993-96) for the seventh-longest conference winning streak in NCAA history.

The Seminoles tallied nine of their 13 runs with two outs on Friday night, and now have 79 RBI this season in the final out of the inning.

"We talk about staying present and executing and we did a great job of that tonight," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "We took advantage of some early opportunities offensively, and battled for a few good two-out hits. Pleased with how we continued to put the pressure on throughout the game and finish well. Looking forward to another challenge tomorrow."

The Seminoles got on the board early, plating four runs in the top of the first inning, all with two outs. Cali Harrod opened the game with a double to center and Warren later drew a walk. Elizabeth Mason drove in the game's first run on an RBI single to center, and Zoe Casas hit her first home run of the season to make it 4-0 Seminoles.

After FSU starter Kylee Hanson began the Georgia Tech first inning with a pair of strikeouts, Rebecca Prairie got a run back for the Jackets with a solo home run to left field, cutting the lead to 4-1. Hanson ended the inning with another strikeout.

Leslie Farris led off the second inning with a bunt single, moved to second on a sacrifice bunt, tagged up to third on a fly out to center and scored on a Georgia Tech fielding error. Sherrill hit her first double of the game to left field, scoring Gordon for a 6-1 FSU lead.

Morgan Klaevemann hit a single to left to lead off the FSU fourth inning and was pinch-run for by Korina Rosario. A walk to Gordon set the table for Sherrill to hit her second double of the game, easily scoring Rosario from second base. Warren followed with her 10th home run of the season to make it a 10-1 ballgame.

Casas hit a two-out single to right and ended up on second after a GT throwing error. Anna Shelnutt knocked a double to center to score Casas, and Farris hit her second home run of the season to make it a 13-1 FSU advantage.

Savanna Copeland came in to pitch the Georgia Tech fourth inning, ending Hanson's day in the circle. The redshirt senior improved to 15-3 on the season after allowing just two hits and one run with zero walks and five strikeouts in 3.0 innings.

Copeland retired the first five Jackets she faced, but a two-out single in the fifth inning by Kaylee Ellebracht sparked GT to score their second run of the game. Kelsey Chisholm walked and Cameron Stanford hit an RBI double to center. Copeland induced a groundout to second base to end the game at 13-2.

Seminoles Extend ACC Winning Streak To 34 Games.
No. 14 Florida State tops Georgia Tech 4-2 to win the season series.

ATLANTA, GA - After posting an early 2-0 advantage in the first inning, No. 14 Florida State (28-6, 8-0 ACC) led the entire game as the Noles posted a 4-2 win over Georgia Tech (19-14, 5-3 ACC) on Saturday afternoon at Shirley Clements Mewborn Field.

The win extended FSU's ACC winning streak to 34 games, which is tied with Texas State for the sixth-longest conference winning streak in NCAA history as the Bobcats won 34 straight Southland Conference games from 2000-02.

"Tough battle today, but glad to see is fight and work through each of the situations," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "These weekends are about adjustments from game to game, at bat to at bat and pitch to pitch. We worked deep into some counts and drew some walks early in the game which enabled us to score some early runs. Now we've both seen each other and tomorrow will be a fight to close out the series."

Just like Friday night, Cali Harrod led off the top of the first with a double to left field. A walk to Carsyn Gordon and Sydney Sherrill getting hit by a pitch loaded the bases for the Noles with nobody out. GT starting pitcher threw a wild pitch to Jessie Warren, allowing Harrod to score from third. Warren's at bat continued and she hit an RBI groundout to second base to give FSU a 2-0 lead.

It marked the 241st RBI of Warren's career, moving her into a tie for 20th in NCAA history with a pair of Tennessee players - Tonya Callahan (2005-08) and current Volunteer shortstop Meghan Gregg.

Georgia Tech opened its first inning with a double as well, and leadoff hitter Cameron Stanford moved to third on an FSU error. FSU's Meghan King retired the next batter with a strikeout, but Katie Krzus cut into the FSU lead with an RBI single to center. The Seminoles got out of the inning a batter later as a ground ball to Leslie Farris started an inning-ending double play.

Gordon drove in a run for FSU in the top of the second, knocking an RBI single up the middle with two outs in the inning. Farris poked a single to right field earlier in the inning and moved up to second on a bunt by Klaevemann before scoring her 12th run of the season.

The Yellow Jackets threatened in the third inning getting runners to first and second with one out on a walk by Kelsey Chisholm and a single by Stanford. King got out of the jam with a pair of strikeouts, both looking.

Harrod extended the FSU lead to 4-1 with a solo home run to right center in the fourth inning, her second extra-base hit of the game.

Kylee Hanson replaced King in the circle to start the GT fourth inning. The redshirt senior needed just six pitches to retire the Jackets in the inning and sent down the first seven batters she faced until a one-out walk by Draven Sonnon in the sixth inning.

Georgia Tech got a run back in the seventh on a solo home run by Crosby Huckabay, but Hanson retired the final two batters to secure the 4-2 win. Hanson improved to 16-3 with 4.0 innings of relief, allowing one run on one hit with a walk and three strikeouts. King scattered three hits and a walk, giving up an unearned run and recorded four strikeouts.

Nine-Run Sixth Inning Carries Noles Over GT In Series Sweep.
Junior Carsyn Gordon hits three doubles in No. 14 FSU's 11-3 win over Georgia Tech.

ATLANTA, GA - Trailing Georgia Tech by a score of 3-2 entering the top of the sixth, No. 14 Florida State (29-6, 9-0 ACC) quickly turned it around, scored nine runs and ended the game in the bottom half of the inning for an 11-3 win in six innings over the Jackets (19-15, 5-4 ACC) on Sunday afternoon.

The Seminoles completed the sweep of the Yellow Jackets and remain undefeated in conference play this season. The win is Florida State's 35th consecutive ACC victory, which is tied with Fresno State (1999-2000 - WAC) for the fifth-longest conference winning streak in NCAA history.

FSU brought 13 batters to the plate in the sixth inning and recorded eight hits, including four doubles and drew a pair of walks as the Noles broke the game wide open. Carsyn Gordon finished with three doubles and four RBI in the game, while Zoe Casas was 3-for-3 at the plate with three RBI and was a home run short of the cycle.

"One of our core values is Competitive, and I loved how the team displayed that today and never stopped fighting or competing," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "We got down early, but didn't stop battling in the circle. We had a lot of good opportunities offensively, ended up leaving a lot of runners on base through the first five innings, but we didn't let those missed chances impact our future at bats and stayed present and focused on the next pitch. Because you don't know who is going to get a swing for the team, and it may come in the first inning or it might be the sixth or seventh inning. Huge to get a conference sweep on the road and now we head home for some more challenges this coming week."

Georgia Tech got on the board in the first inning on a two-run home run by Katie Krzus. GT's Draven Sonnon drew a one-out walk off of Seminole starting pitcher Savanna Copeland and Krzus hit her eighth HR of the season to left center. Copeland ended the inning with a pair of strikeouts to keep the game at 2-0 GT.

Florida State threatened in the top of the second, getting runners to second and third with two outs on a single by Casas and a double by Anna Shelnutt, but a strikeout left them both stranded.

Morgan Klaevemann led off the FSU third inning with a bunt single, stole second and moved to third on a groundout. She came in to score on a one-out RBI double by Gordon, cutting the Yellow Jacket lead to 2-1.

After issuing a leadoff walk to Bianca Mora in the GT third inning, Copeland was replaced in the circle by Meghan King. The Yellow Jackets were able to load the bases with a walk and a one-out single by Krzus. King retired the next batter on a line out to the circle, but a wild pitch by the redshirt junior gave GT another run for a 3-1 lead. King ended the inning with a strikeout.

Elizabeth Mason drew a walk to start the Seminole fourth inning and quickly came into score on a triple to center by Casas to cut the deficit to one run. A pair of two-out walks to Morgan Klaevemann and Cali Harrod loaded the bases but a groundout left the bases full of Seminoles as GT took a 3-2 lead into the bottom of the fourth.

The Seminoles loaded the bases again in the fifth on a double by Sydney Sherrill, a walk to Casas and Shelnutt getting hit by a pitch, but all three would be left stranded on base.

Florida State took the lead in the sixth inning, scoring nine runs for an 11-3 advantage. Harrod hit a one-out single to left center and back-to-back RBI doubles by Gordon and Sherrill put the Noles in front 4-3. It marked Sherrill's 16th double of the season, moving into a tie for sixth in FSU single-season history with Alex Powers (2016), Victoria East (2013) and Cindy Lawton (1995).

The inning continued with a walk to Jessie Warren and a single to left field by Mason to load the bases. Casas hit a two-run double to right center and Shelnutt followed with an RBI single to left to make it 7-3 Florida State.

Rosario brought in a pair of runs with a single through the right side in her second plate appearance of the inning and Harrod followed with a walk. Gordon brought in both of them on a two-run double down the left field line to close out the Seminole scoring.

King retired the Jackets in order in the bottom of the sixth, capping the game off with a pair of strikeouts. The redshirt junior improved to 12-3 on the season, tossing 4.0 innings of relief, giving up just one hit and two walks, while striking out five.

Copeland recorded a season-high five strikeouts in her 2.0 inning start, allowing just one hit and three runs with two walks.

FSU Wins 19th In A Row With A DH Sweep Of No. 19 Louisiana.
The No. 13 Seminoles topped the Ragin' Cajuns, 8-0 and 7-1, on Wednesday night.

TALLAHASSEE, FL - Taking on the nation's No. 29-ranked team in ERA (1.99), No. 13 Florida State (31-6) combined for 15 runs on 19 hits with 10 extra-base hits as the Seminoles earned a doubleheader sweep of No. 19 Louisiana (23-9) on Wednesday night at JoAnne Graf Field. FSU shutout the Ragin' Cajuns, 8-0, in five innings in game one and posted a 7-1 victory in game two.

Florida State has now won 19 consecutive games, dating back to March 3, and has recorded seven run-rule victories over that span. It is the ninth-longest winning streak in school history and the longest since the Seminoles won 24 consecutive games from March 3-April 9, 2017.

A pair of freshmen shined for the Seminoles as Elizabeth Mason combined to go 5-for-7 at the plate with a double, two RBI, three runs scored and three stolen bases. Sydney Sherrill had four hits on the night, including two doubles and a home run, increasing her total to 18 doubles, which is tied with Carly Wynn (2010) for third in FSU single-season history.

"During the journey of the season, you grow as a team," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "And we have also continued to grow individually. Some freshmen are coming in big for us right now and some returners are hitting their stride, and we are coming together with some of the injured kids getting back in there. So you are seeing the baby steps come together. It was two well-played games today against a really good team. Really proud of the crew and really excited about our journey right now."

Game 1: No. 13 Florida State 8, No. 19 Louisana 0 (5 Innings)
Cali Harrod quickly put the Seminoles up 1-0 with a leadoff home run in the bottom of the first inning, her fourth HR of the season.

Florida State broke the game open in the second inning, scoring four runs on four hits, including three extra base hits. Zoe Casas started the inning with a single to right and scored on a triple by Leslie Farris. Harrod drove in her second run of the game with a two-out double to RF and Gordon followed with an RBI triple to right center. Gordon came in to score on a wild pitch by Louisiana's Carrie Boswell as Florida State led 5-0 after two innings.

Mason sparked the Seminole offense for a lone run in the third inning, hitting an infield single, moving up to second base on a Louisiana throwing error and stole third on the play as no one was covering third base. Mason scored a batter later as Casas grounded out to shortstop, but it was deep enough to extend the Seminole lead to 6-0.

Harrod got within a single short of the cycle with a two-out triple to right in the fourth inning, but would not get another at bat as the Seminoles secured the run-rule victory in the fifth.

Sherrill singled to left to start the Seminole fifth inning and quickly stole second base. An RBI single through the right side by Warren scored Sherrill from second and Warren was pinch-run for at first by Deja Bush. Bush stole second and moved up to third on a single by Mason. Casas ended the game on an RBI infield single, scoring Bush for the 8-0 FSU victory in five innings.

Kylee Hanson (17-3) scattered two hits over 5.0 shutout innings, giving up a walk and recording two strikeouts. It is Hanson's 11th appearance this season where she has given up two hits or fewer in a game.

Game 2: No. 13 Florida State 7, No. 19 Louisiana 1
Florida State scored again in the first inning and took a 1-0 lead on a two-out RBI single by Mason off Louisiana starting pitcher Summer Ellyson. Gordon hit a one-out double earlier in the inning and scored on the base hit to center.

Louisiana tied the game at 1-1 in the top of the fourth inning as Lexie Comeau hit a two-out double to right field and scored on a single up the middle by Kourtney Gremillion.

The Seminoles took the lead back in the bottom of the inning as Mason led off with a double to left center. She moved up to third on a groundout and Anna Shelnutt walked to put runners on the corners. Deja Bush pinch-ran for Shelnutt and stole second for her eighth SB of the season.

Farris grounded into a fielder's choice to third as the Ragin' Cajuns caught Mason in a rundown. As Mason tried to get back to third, she was blocked by the LA third baseman. The umpires ruled the obstruction, but play continued and Mason stole home and scored as the defense just stood still in the infield, putting the Noles up 2-1.

Gordon walked to start the Seminole fifth inning and stole second to move into scoring position. Mason drove in her second run of the day on a single to center for a 3-1 FSU lead. The redshirt freshman stole second and moved to third on a passed ball before scoring on an RBI infield single to short by Casas to make it 4-1 Florida State.

The Noles put the game out of reach in the sixth inning as Sabrina Stutsman battled back from a 1-2 count to draw a walk and Harrod drew a one-out walk of her own. Sherrill hit her seventh home run of the season to make it 7-1 FSU, launching the ball over the fence in right center.

FSU's Meghan King allowed a leadoff single to Louisiana in the seventh, but retired the final three batters to close out the complete-game victory. The redshirt junior improved to 13-3 on the season and allowed a run on five hits with one walk and four strikeouts.

TALLAHASSEE, FL - Taking on the nation's No. 29-ranked team in ERA (1.99), No. 13 Florida State (31-6) combined for 15 runs on 19 hits with 10 extra-base hits as the Seminoles earned a doubleheader sweep of No. 19 Louisiana (23-9) on Wednesday night at JoAnne Graf Field. FSU shutout the Ragin' Cajuns, 8-0, in five innings in game one and posted a 7-1 victory in game two.

Florida State has now won 19 consecutive games, dating back to March 3, and has recorded seven run-rule victories over that span. It is the ninth-longest winning streak in school history and the longest since the Seminoles won 24 consecutive games from March 3-April 9, 2017.

A pair of freshmen shined for the Seminoles as Elizabeth Mason combined to go 5-for-7 at the plate with a double, two RBI, three runs scored and three stolen bases. Sydney Sherrill had four hits on the night, including two doubles and a home run, increasing her total to 18 doubles, which is tied with Carly Wynn (2010) for third in FSU single-season history.

"During the journey of the season, you grow as a team," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "And we have also continued to grow individually. Some freshmen are coming in big for us right now and some returners are hitting their stride, and we are coming together with some of the injured kids getting back in there. So you are seeing the baby steps come together. It was two well-played games today against a really good team. Really proud of the crew and really excited about our journey right now."

Game 1: No. 13 Florida State 8, No. 19 Louisana 0 (5 Innings)
Cali Harrod quickly put the Seminoles up 1-0 with a leadoff home run in the bottom of the first inning, her fourth HR of the season.

Florida State broke the game open in the second inning, scoring four runs on four hits, including three extra base hits. Zoe Casas started the inning with a single to right and scored on a triple by Leslie Farris. Harrod drove in her second run of the game with a two-out double to RF and Gordon followed with an RBI triple to right center. Gordon came in to score on a wild pitch by Louisiana's Carrie Boswell as Florida State led 5-0 after two innings.

Mason sparked the Seminole offense for a lone run in the third inning, hitting an infield single, moving up to second base on a Louisiana throwing error and stole third on the play as no one was covering third base. Mason scored a batter later as Casas grounded out to shortstop, but it was deep enough to extend the Seminole lead to 6-0.

Harrod got within a single short of the cycle with a two-out triple to right in the fourth inning, but would not get another at bat as the Seminoles secured the run-rule victory in the fifth.

Sherrill singled to left to start the Seminole fifth inning and quickly stole second base. An RBI single through the right side by Warren scored Sherrill from second and Warren was pinch-run for at first by Deja Bush. Bush stole second and moved up to third on a single by Mason. Casas ended the game on an RBI infield single, scoring Bush for the 8-0 FSU victory in five innings.

Kylee Hanson (17-3) scattered two hits over 5.0 shutout innings, giving up a walk and recording two strikeouts. It is Hanson's 11th appearance this season where she has given up two hits or fewer in a game.

Game 2: No. 13 Florida State 7, No. 19 Louisiana 1
Florida State scored again in the first inning and took a 1-0 lead on a two-out RBI single by Mason off Louisiana starting pitcher Summer Ellyson. Gordon hit a one-out double earlier in the inning and scored on the base hit to center.

Louisiana tied the game at 1-1 in the top of the fourth inning as Lexie Comeau hit a two-out double to right field and scored on a single up the middle by Kourtney Gremillion.

The Seminoles took the lead back in the bottom of the inning as Mason led off with a double to left center. She moved up to third on a groundout and Anna Shelnutt walked to put runners on the corners. Deja Bush pinch-ran for Shelnutt and stole second for her eighth SB of the season.

Farris grounded into a fielder's choice to third as the Ragin' Cajuns caught Mason in a rundown. As Mason tried to get back to third, she was blocked by the LA third baseman. The umpires ruled the obstruction, but play continued and Mason stole home and scored as the defense just stood still in the infield, putting the Noles up 2-1.

Gordon walked to start the Seminole fifth inning and stole second to move into scoring position. Mason drove in her second run of the day on a single to center for a 3-1 FSU lead. The redshirt freshman stole second and moved to third on a passed ball before scoring on an RBI infield single to short by Casas to make it 4-1 Florida State.

The Noles put the game out of reach in the sixth inning as Sabrina Stutsman battled back from a 1-2 count to draw a walk and Harrod drew a one-out walk of her own. Sherrill hit her seventh home run of the season to make it 7-1 FSU, launching the ball over the fence in right center.

FSU's Meghan King allowed a leadoff single to Louisiana in the seventh, but retired the final three batters to close out the complete-game victory. The redshirt junior improved to 13-3 on the season and allowed a run on five hits with one walk and four strikeouts.

Sydney Sherrill Sets Records As FSU Splits DH With Pitt.
The freshman leads the NCAA with 22 doubles and sets FSU single-season record.

TALLAHASSEE, FL - It was 15 innings of close-fought softball on Friday night between No. 13 Florida State (32-7, 10-1 ACC) and Pitt (20-14-1, 9-4 ACC) at JoAnne Graf Field. The Seminoles earned a 2-1 walk-off victory in game one and dropped a heartbreaker to the Panthers in game two by the score of 1-0 in eight innings.

Sydney Sherrill hit four doubles on the night, two in each game, to increase her season total to 22. She extended her NCAA lead in the category this season and surpassed Alex Powers (2017) and Yuruby Alicart (2006), who had previously tied for the FSU single-season record with 19 doubles.

Florida State led the nation in doubles entering the weekend and now have 75 doubles as a team in 2018. That ranks in a tie for eighth in a single season in FSU history and the Seminoles set the school record of 94 doubles in 2017.

The loss in game two snapped FSU's ACC winning streak at 36 games. It ends as the fifth-longest conference winning streak in NCAA history. Prior to Friday, the Seminoles hadn't lost a conference game since a 4-0 defeat to Louisville on May 7, 2016.

"It was definitely a battle," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "Pitt pitched well and got after it for all 14, 15 innings there. Good fought battle. Sometimes it falls your way, sometimes it doesn't. Syd had a great day for us, she made an error in game one but made up for it at the end. And then gave us a chance there in the eighth, so that was fun to see. So now it is about winning the series. Really proud of our team for the streak we had in the ACC and hats off to Pitt, they definitely earned the win."

Game 1: No. 13 Florida State 2, Pitt 1
Florida State loaded the bases in the second inning on a pair of two-out singles by Anna Shelnutt and Leslie Farris, as well as a walk by Morgan Klaevemann, but they would all be left stranded as the inning ended with a groundout.

Pitt threatened in the top of the third inning on a one-out double by Hunter Levesque and she moved up to third on a wild pitch. Kylee Hanson battled back with her sixth strikeout of the game and Cali Harrod kept the game scoreless by jumping to catch a ball heading to left field to end the inning.

The Seminoles got additional runners on base with a double by Jessie Warren in the third, a hit-by-pitch to Shelnutt and a single by Farris in the fourth, as well as walks to Carsyn Gordon and Warren in the fifth, but the game remained tied at 0-0 after five complete innings.

Pitt scored the first run of the game in the sixth inning as Levesque led off the inning with an infield single. Erin Hershman put down a sacrifice bunt, but a Seminole throwing error went into right field, scoring Levesque and putting Hershman on second base. A sacrifice bunt moved her to third with one out, but Florida State got out of the inning with a 1-0 deficit after a groundout to short and a leaping catch by Farris at second base to end the inning.

The Seminoles walked off the Panthers in the bottom of the seventh for the 2-1 victory. Klaevemann drew her second walk of the game and Gordon hit a one-out single to left and the FSU runners ended up on second and third on the play. Sherrill ended it with her second double of the game and 20th of the season to secure the Seminole walk-off victory.

Hanson improved to 18-3 with the win and has won 12 consecutive appearances in the circle. She allowed just one unearned run on two hits and a walk with nine strikeouts in her seventh complete game of the season.

Game 2: Pitt 1, No. 13 Florida State 0
Offense was at a premium in game two as neither team managed to get a runner to third base until the seventh inning.

Gordon erased a Pitt single in the top of the third inning, catching a one-out pop out at first to tag the runner for an inning ending double play. Gordon hit a two-out double in the bottom of the third, but would be left stranded.

Elizabeth Mason hit a one-out single in the FSU fourth and Zoe Casas followed with a base hit of her own, but Mason got caught between second and third on the play for out number two and a fly out ended the inning.

Florida State seemed well positioned to end the game in the bottom of the seventh as Casas led off with a single to center. A passed ball and a bunt single from Shelnutt put runners on the corners, marking the first time in the game that either team had a runner each third base. FSU loaded the bases with nobody out as Farris was intentionally walked, but Pitt forced extra innings as the next three Seminole hitters were retired on a pair of strikeouts and a pop out.

The Panthers scored the game's only run in the top of the eighth as Marissa DeMatteo singled to center to lead off the inning. FSU starter Meghan King retired the next two batters on a pop out and a strikeout, but Giorgiana Zeremenko extended the inning with a single to left center. Olivia Gray drove a 1-2 pitch into right field for an RBI single to bring in a run and put Pitt in front 1-0.

Sherrill hit her second double of the game to lead off the FSU eighth inning, but a lined shot by Warren that seemed destined for extra-bases in left center was snagged out of the air on a leaping catch by Pitt SS Gray, and she dove back to tag Sherrill for the double play. A groundout to the circle ended the game for the Pitt victory.

King (13-4) scattered seven hits over 8.0 innings, allowing just one run and one walk while tying a season high with seven strikeouts.

FSU Takes Series With 8-0 Win In Five Innings Over Pitt.
The Seminoles have not lost an ACC series since 2012.

TALLAHASSEE, FL - Extending its ACC series unbeaten streak to 45, No. 13 Florida State (33-7, 11-1 ACC) scored six in the second inning and cruised to an 8-0 victory in five innings over Pitt (20-15-1, 9-5 ACC) on Sunday afternoon at JoAnne Graf Field. The Seminoles are now 41-0-4 in their last 45 conference series, including 34 sweeps. The last time that FSU lost a conference series was on the road at Maryland on May 5-6, 2012.

With the win, Florida State has redeemed each loss possible this season. Of FSU's seven losses this year, six have come against teams that the Seminoles would play again, either in a doubleheader or later in a weekend tournament/series. In all six of those situations, FSU earned the win in game two, defeating No. 20 Michigan (2-0), South Alabama (14-1), No. 10 Alabama (3-1), Hofstra (5-0), No. 6 Oregon (2-1) and Pitt (8-0). The loss to McNeese on February 20 was the only game played against the Cowgirls this season.

FSU freshman Sydney Sherrill entered the game leading the ACC in slugging percentage and added to it on Sunday, hitting a three-run home run in the second inning and her base hit in the fifth inning went to wall in left center, but was statistically ruled a single as it brought home the final run in the 8-0 victory. Sherrill now has a .810 slugging percentage and leads the team with 41 RBI.

"It is always about the rubber match and being able to make the adjustments on Sundays and I thought we did a good job of that today," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "We came with better plans at the plate to day and executing, and Zoe got that leadoff double for us and we had some good situational hitting, which was big for us. Great job on Kylee's part, coming out and giving us a chance to come out and swing it."

FSU starting pitcher Kylee Hanson set the tone in the top of the first inning, recording all three outs with a strikeout. She added two more strikeouts in the second inning and struck out the side in the third, improving to 19-3 with a 3.0-inning win, giving up just one hit with zero runs, zero walks and eight strikeouts.

Florida State broke the game open in the second inning as Zoe Casas led off with a double to left center. Elizabeth Mason followed with a bunt down the third base line that refused to go foul, putting runners on second and third on the play. Anna Shelnutt's RBI bunt single brought in the first run of the game to make it 1-0 FSU.

Deja Bush pinch-ran for Shelnutt and quickly stole second, and a walk to Leslie Farris loaded the bases with nobody out. Sabrina Stutsman flew out to left, and Mason was retired at the plate for a double play. Farris recorded her second stolen base of the season and Cali Harrod drove in two RBI with a two-out single to left. Carsyn Gordon continued the inning with a walk and Sherrill hit her ninth home run of the season to give the Seminoles a 6-0 lead after two innings.

Mason began the FSU third inning with a single to left and stole second base, her 11th SB of the season. A walk to Farris, her second of the game, and Morgan Klaevemann getting hit by a pitch loaded the bases. Harrod drove in her third RBI of the game on a fielder's choice to shortstop to score Mason and make it 7-0 Noles.

Meghan King pitched 2.0 scoreless innings of relief, striking out three and allowing two hits and a walk.

Florida State ended the game in the bottom of the fifth, loading the bases on a walk to Shelnutt, Farris being hit by a pitch and a walk to Harrod. Sherrill drove in FSU's eighth run of the game by lining the first pitch of her at bat into the left center gap, but it could only be statistically ruled a game-ending RBI single.

Kylee Hanson Tosses Two-Hitter In Win Over No. 6 Florida.
The Seminoles take game one of the Fresh From Florida Sunshine Showdown by a score of 4-1 on Wednesday night.

TALLAHASSEE, FL - In front of 2,138 fans and in her first career game against the Gators, redshirt senior Kylee Hanson pitched a gem on Wednesday night as No. 13 Florida State (34-7) earned a 4-1 victory over No. 6 Florida (34-7) in the first game of the annual Fresh From Florida Sunshine Showdown.

Hanson tossed a two-hitter and posted five strikeouts in the complete game victory to improve to 20-3 on the year. It marked the eighth consecutive start where she allowed two or fewer hits, and her 14th of the season in 23 appearances.

It is the first time that Florida State has won consecutive games against the Gators since 2006. The Seminoles have won four straight games over ranked teams in 2018 and are 8-3 on the season against teams in the NFCA Top 25.

"Kylee pitched a great game," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda "The game plan was to attack the zone and be able to mix speeds early. Against a lefty-dominated lineup, as a righty pitcher, that was a pretty good job for her. A great team effort and Carsyn had some big swings and set the tone for us, and a lot of great defensive plays."

The Seminoles got an early lead with a solo home run in the bottom of the first by Carsyn Gordon. She drove a 1-1 pitch to deep center, nearly hitting FSU Director of Coaches Video Craig Campanozzi in his scissor lift at the height of the top of the scoreboard.

Florida tied the game at 1-1 in the top of the third as Jordan Roberts drew a leadoff walk and Alex Voss ran for her at first. A sacrifice bunt moved her to second base and Voss scored on a one-out RBI double by Kayli Kvistad.

Florida State retook the lead in the bottom of the fourth as Gordon led off with a walk. Sydney Sherrill traded places with her on a fielder's choice and Jessie Warren hit a single off the third base bag to put Seminoles at first and second with two outs. Zoe Casas lined an RBI single to center to make it 2-1 FSU.

Deja Bush entered to run at second for Warren and Bush and Casas executed a perfect double steal to move into scoring position. A walk to Cassidy Davis loaded the bases, but the Noles could not add any more runs as the inning ended with a pair of strikeouts.

Florida threatened in the top of the fifth as Aleshia Ocasio hit a one-out double off the top of the wall in center that was inches away from tying the game. A pair of two-out walks to Nicole DeWitt and Amanda Lorenz loaded the bases, but Hanson got out of the jam with a pop out to second base.

The Seminoles rode that momentum to a pair of runs in the bottom of the fifth to break the game open. Morgan Klaevemann led off the inning with a slap single to shortstop and came in to score on an RBI triple by Cali Harrod, her fourth triple of the season. Gordon drove in her second RBI of the game a batter later on a ground out to short for the 4-1 Seminole lead.

Hanson retired the Gators in order in the sixth and the seventh to close out the game.

"It was surreal," said Hanson. "I couldn't stop looking up at the crowd and taking it all in. I only get one year of this, but it was incredible. I can't believe they get to (play in this rivalry) every year, that was so much fun. Florida is a very patient team, and we knew we'd have to roll with the punches and go at them as best I could with strikes."

Seminoles Split Friday DH at Boston College.
No. 13 FSU falls in game one, 1-0, before posting a come-from-behind 5-4 win in game two.

BRIGHTON, MA - A five-run sixth inning in game two helped the Seminoles avoid the doubleheader sweep as No. 13 Florida State (35-8, 12-2 ACC) earned a 5-4 win over Boston College (22-16, 9-4 ACC) after falling in game one of the day, 1-0.

The Seminoles continue to redeem each possible loss of the season with its win in game of the doubleheader. Of the eight losses in 2018, seven have come against teams that the Seminoles would play again, either in a doubleheader or later in a weekend tournament. In all six of those situations, FSU has earned the win in game two, defeating No. 20 Michigan (2-0), South Alabama (14-1), No. 10 Alabama (3-1), Hofstra (5-0), No. 6 Oregon (2-1), Pitt (8-0) and BC (5-4).

"Good to see the fight tonight from the team," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "Boston College came out and challenged us all day in the circle and we struggled early on. But we kept fighting to stay present and battled some difficult at bats and situations in game two to come back and win. Meghan King pitched great today even in the loss in game one and came in to get the save for us in game two. Looking forward to making some adjustments and closing out the series tomorrow."

Game 1: Boston College 1, No. 13 Florida State 0
The Seminoles got a runner to second base in each of the first three innings on a walk by Carsyn Gordon in the first and a groundout, a double by Zoe Casas in the second, as well as a walk and stolen base by Cali Harrod in the third inning, but they would all be left stranded as BC's Allyson Frei recorded six strikeouts in the early going.

Boston College scored the only run of the game with an unearned run in the bottom of the fourth on a pair of Seminole errors. Emme Martinez drew a one-out walk and moved up to second on a wild pitch. Lexi DiEmmanuele hit a ball down the left field line with two outs that was misplayed, allowing a run to score.

Florida State only had two baserunners in the final three innings, with walks by Gordon in the sixth and Casas in the seventh. Anna Shelnutt lifted a two-out shot to right center in the seventh that was caught at the wall to end the game.

Meghan King (13-5) took the loss, despite setting a season high with nine strikeouts in the game. She allowed just four hits and one walk over 6.0 innings, with one unearned run.

Game 2: No. 13 Florida State 5, Boston College 4
Boston College tallied seven hits, including three doubles and a home run in the first two innings to take a quick 4-0 lead in game two.

The Seminoles got a pair of runners on base in the third inning on walks by Morgan Klaevemann and Gordon, but Sydney Sherrill's hard liner down the third base line was snagged by BC's Martinez and she stepped on the bag to end the inning.

Florida State scored five runs in the top of the sixth to take a 5-4 lead. Harrod led off the inning with a four-pitch walk and Gordon followed with a single to center for the Seminoles' first base hit of the game. Jessie Warren was hit by a pitch to load the bases with one out in the inning and was pinch-run for by Deja Bush.

Casas hit a ball back to the circle, but the throw home by BC pitcher Jessica Dreswick was not caught by Jordan Chimento, allowing Harrod and Gordon to score on the play, cutting the BC lead to 4-2.

Elizabeth Mason followed with a ball up the third base line, and Bush scored as she was obstructed on the play at the plate. Leslie Farris put the Noles in front with a two-out, two-RBI double to left, scoring Mason and Korina Rosario, who pinch-ran for Casas.

FSU starter Kylee Hanson gave up four runs on six hits in 1.1 innings with two strikeouts and did not factor in the decision. Cassidy Davis pitched 2.2 innings of relief, scattering three hits without giving up a walk or a run.

Savanna Copeland (2-0) earned the win and pitched the BC fifth for the Seminoles, giving up a walk and a single and recording a strikeout in the scoreless inning of relief.

King pitched 2.0 scoreless innings of relief, giving up just two hits and two walks with two strikeouts to close out the game and record her second save of the season.

Seminoles Split Friday DH at Boston College.
No. 13 FSU falls in game one, 1-0, before posting a come-from-behind 5-4 win in game two.

BRIGHTON, MA - A five-run sixth inning in game two helped the Seminoles avoid the doubleheader sweep as No. 13 Florida State (35-8, 12-2 ACC) earned a 5-4 win over Boston College (22-16, 9-4 ACC) after falling in game one of the day, 1-0.

No. 13 FSU Shuts Out BC To Take Series.

BRIGHTON, MA — With temps in the mid-40s, including winds gusting to 20+ mph throughout most of the game, the players and the offenses for No. 13 Florida State (35-8, 12-2 ACC) and Boston College (22-16, 9-4 ACC) were chilled on Saturday afternoon as FSU earned a 5-0 victory over BC to win the season series over the Eagles.

The Seminoles recorded eight hits, including five infield singles and drew three walks to carry FSU to its 14th shutout of the season.

Florida State extends its conference series unbeaten streak to 46 and have a 42-0-4 mark against ACC foes, including 34 sweeps since last losing a conference series at Maryland on May 5-6, 2012. The Seminoles are 120-12 in their last 132 ACC regular season games, dating back to 2012.

“Outstanding way to bounce back from yesterday,” said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. “We got out in front early with some quality situational hitting and Kylee and our defense did a great job in the challenging weather. Our goal every weekend is to win the series, and we got the job done against a scrappy and talented team in Boston College.”

Florida State opened the scoring with a lone run in the top of the first inning. Carsyn Gordon drew a one-out walk, stole second and moved up to third base on a groundout. Jessie Warren drew a walk on four pitches and Zoe Casas hit an infield RBI single to put the Noles on top 1-0.

It marked the 20th time that FSU has scored in the first inning and the Noles have plated 49 runs in the first frame, the most of any inning so far this season. The Seminoles are 20-0 when scoring in the first inning and 31-0 overall when being the first team to score.

Boston College got a pair of runners on base in the bottom of the first with a walk by Annie Murphy and Emme Martinez getting hit by a pitch with one out. FSU starting pitcher Kylee Hanson got the Seminoles back in the dugout after retiring the next two hitters on a pair of lineouts.

Elizabeth Mason worked her way around the bases in the second inning to score a run and make it 2-0 Seminoles. The redshirt freshman led off the inning with a walk and stole second base for her 12th SB of the season. She moved to third on a groundout and scored on a wild pitch by BC’s Allyson Frei.

Boston College got its first hit of the game on a two-out single to right by Annie Murphy in the third inning.

Florida State broke the game open in the sixth inning, loading the bases with nobody out on a walk by Warren, a single by Casas and a bunt single by Korina Rosario. Mason lifted a sacrifice fly to left, scoring pinch-runner Deja Bush to make it 3-0 Noles. Anna Shelnutt was hit by a pitch to reload the bases and Sabrina Stutsman knocked a pinch-hit single through the right side to score two runs and extend the Seminole lead to 5-0 heading to the bottom of the sixth.

Hanson retired 13 of the last 16 batters she faced to close out the complete-game shutout. She allowed just three hits in the game with two walks and four strikeouts.

Four-Run Fifth Sparks FSU In Shutout Of Louisville.
The No. 10 Seminoles take game one against the Cardinals, 4-0, on Saturday afternoon.

TALLAHASSEE, FL - The Seminoles started Senior Weekend on a good note as Jessie Warren moved up the NCAA record book with a two-run home run and Kylee Hanson earned her 22nd win of the season as No. 10 Florida State (37-8, 14-2 ACC) posted a 4-0 shutout over Louisville (28-15, 7-8 ACC) on Saturday afternoon at JoAnne Graf Field. The Noles scored all four runs with two outs in the fifth inning to take game one of the series.

"It is about passing the bat and making adjustments," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "(Louisville's Megan) Hensley pitched a good game, worked in and out and a had a little offspeed, so we had to be a little smarter as we moved toward the end of the game and get some swings off for the team."

The Seminoles put a pair of runners on in the first two innings behind walks by Carsyn Gordon and Warren in the first, as well as a single on 12 pitches by Anna Shelnutt and a Louisville error in the second, but all would be left stranded.

Florida State continued to battle at the plate as Gordon tallied an 11-pitch AB, but grounded out, in the third inning and Elizabeth Mason hit a two-out double in the fourth. Zoe Casas nearly broke the scoreless tie in the fourth with a long fly ball to right center, but it got knocked down by the wind that was blowing in at 15-20 mph and was caught at the wall.

The Seminoles finally wore Louisville starter Megan Hensley down in the fifth inning as she entered the frame with 88 total pitches. Gordon sparked the two-out rally for FSU with her second walk of the game. Sydney Sherrill added to her NCAA lead with her 23rd double of the season to put the Noles on the board 1-0.

Warren followed with a two-run home run to left center to extend the Florida State lead to 3-0. It marked her 11th home run of the season and 73rd of her career, moving Warren into a tie for 16th in NCAA history with Washington's Jamie Clark (2000-03). The pair of RBI increased her career total to 244, which passes Clark for 20th all-time in NCAA history.

Casas capped off the scoring for the Seminoles in the inning with a solo home run of her own, as FSU took a 4-0 lead to the sixth inning.

Hanson had another efficient outing as the Seminole starter, retiring the first 10 batters she faced before Maddy Newman hit a one-out single in the top of the fourth. Louisville managed just one more hit against her on the afternoon, a double by Jenna Jordan in the fifth, but that's all the Cardinals would manage against the redshirt senior as she finished with her 15th appearance this season of giving up two or fewer hits, and ninth in her last 11 games.

Hanson improved to 22-3 on the season and tossed just 78 pitches over 6.0 scoreless innings, striking out six and allowing one walk.

FSU freshman Savanna Copeland struck out the first two batters she faced in the Louisville seventh as she closed out the game to preserve the shutout.

No. 10 FSU Earns Run-Rule Win Over Louisville On Senior Day.

TALLAHASSEE, FL — Celebrating the outstanding careers of Kylee Hanson, Morgan Klaevemann, Korina Rosario and Jessie Warren – along with student managers Katie Baker and Taylor Zitello – prior to the game, No. 10 Florida State (38-8, 15-2 ACC) made it a Senior Day to remember with an 8-0 win in five innings over Louisville (28-16, 7-9 ACC) on Sunday afternoon. It is the 15th run-rule victory for the Seminoles this season and the fourth in ACC play in 2018.

The victory clinches the season series for Florida State, marking the 47th-straight conference series without a loss for the Noles. The last conference series loss for FSU was on May 5-6, 2012 at Maryland.

The Seminoles recorded their third consecutive shutout and 16th of the season on Sunday. The Florida State pitching staff has not allowed a run in the last 24.2 innings and only three opponent runners have reached third base during that span.

“It is always awesome to celebrate careers, and granted we are not done playing yet, but it is a chance to love up the parents and the families that have been supporting these players throughout their time here, as well as growing up in travel ball and high school,” said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. “Getting on the board early today was important and gave us a comfort zone. Meghan King had a great day in the circle and we played some good defense in big moments, so it all really came together today.

“We took the series, but tomorrow will be a big one for us against Hensley. To see if we can make the same adjustments we did toward the end of yesterday’s game a little earlier tomorrow. It is going to be a good battle and I’m really proud of the kids and it has been a great weekend so far.”

The Seminoles opened the scoring in the first inning without recording a hit as Louisville starter Danielle Watson issued a total of four walks in the inning. FSU loaded the bases on walks to Carsyn Gordon, Sydney Sherrill and Jessie Warren with one out and Elizabeth Mason’s RBI fielder’s choice put the Noles up 1-0.

FSU improved to 21-0 when scoring in the first inning and 33-0 overall this season when it is the first team to score. It also marked the 50th run scored in the first inning in 2018, the highest total of any inning this season.

Florida State scored three runs in the second inning, all with two outs, to break the game open. Zoe Casas was hit by a pitch and Gordon followed with her second walk of the game. Sydney Sherrill drove in the first run of the inning with an RBI double, her 24th 2B of the season, which ranks in a tie for fourth in a season in ACC history and a tie for 30th in NCAA single-season history.

Warren extended the FSU lead to 4-0, bringing in a pair with a single to center to close out the scoring in the Seminole second inning.

Louisville got its first hit of the game in the top of the third inning on a pair of infield singles by Sidney Melton and Maddy Newman, but FSU starting pitcher Meghan King quickly got out of the inning as the next pitch was hit to Warren at third to begin an inning-ending 5-4-3 double play.

Mason made it 6-0 Florida State with a two-run home run in the bottom of the fourth inning, launching her fourth HR of the season to left, scoring Warren who reached on a hit-by-pitch.

Morgan Klaevemann drew a one-out walk in the FSU fifth and moved up to second on a wild pitch. Mackenzie Puckett drew a walk on a pinch-hit appearance and was pinch-run for by Dani Morgan. It is the third plate appearance for Puckett on the season and the freshman has walked each time.

A passed ball moved Klaevemann to third and Morgan stole second base later in the inning and both came in to score on a two-run single up the middle by Gordon to clinch the run-rule victory.

King improved to 14-5 on the season, allowing just two hits and a walk, while finishing with seven strikeouts in 5.0 shutout innings.

Hanson And Warren Are Top 10 NPF Draft Picks As Noles Sweep Cardinals.

TALLAHASSEE, FL — A home run to tie the game in the third inning by Jessie Warren, along with a complete-game one-hitter from Kylee Hanson were not the only reasons to celebrate for the Seminole seniors on Wednesday night as the duo were both selected in the Top 10 of the 2018 National Pro Fastpitch (NPF) Draft.

Hanson was selected with the No. 5 overall pick by the Cleveland Comets and Warren went No. 7 overall to the USSSA Pride as the draft occurred during the 3-1 victory for No. 10 Florida State (39-8, 16-2 ACC) over Louisville (28-17, 7-10 ACC) to complete the series sweep.

It is the second straight season that Florida State has had two players selected in the Top 10 of the draft, as Jessica Burroughs was the No. 1 overall pick in 2017 and Alex Powers was draft No. 10, both by the USSSA Pride. The Noles join LSU as the only schools to have multiple Top 10 draft picks in each of the last two years.

“Any time that these kids get to play softball beyond college is an awesome opportunity,” said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. “It can be nerve-wracking to play at the same time as the draft, but I thought they did great. Kylee didn’t have her best stuff at the beginning of the game, and I think a little part was nerves, but to bounce back and make the adjustments and shut them down was huge. Our offense dialed in and got after Hensley. She’s a good pitcher and moves the ball around and we left a lot of runners on base. So that is something to work on as we go on the road for the next two weekends.”

Louisville opened the scoring in the top of the first inning on a two-out solo home run by Megan Hensley. It was the first run allowed by the Florida State pitching staff in 25.1 innings, dating back to April 13.

The Seminoles threatened in the bottom of the first, getting a pair of runners on with a two-out single by Sydney Sherrill and a walk by Warren, but both would be left stranded.

FSU got runners on the corners in the bottom of the second on a bunt and stolen base by Cali Harrod, along with a walk by Morgan Klaevemann, but the Noles were unable to push one across and trailed the Cardinals 1-0 after two innings.

Warren got the Noles on the board in the bottom of the third inning, tying the game with a solo home run to center. It marked the 74th home run of her career, which ranks 16th in NCAA history.

“It is really cool to be able to continue playing the game that I love,” said Warren. “This team is scrappy and competitive, and we just love to fight. So when we go down, we never think we are out of it. It is fun to compete with these girls out here.”

Zoe Casas led off the Seminole fifth inning with a walk and was pinch-run for by Deja Bush. Bush stole second and came into score as Carsyn Gordon hit her eighth home run of the season to center, putting the Noles in front 3-1.

Florida State looked to add to its lead in the sixth as Cassidy Davis led off with a single and walks to Gordon and Sherrill loaded the bases, but all three would be stranded as FSU ended up leaving a total of 10 runners on base in the game.

Hanson retired the final 19 batters she faced to improve to 23-3 on the season, giving up one run on one hit with zero walks and six strikeouts. It is the 16th time this season that Hanson has allowed two or fewer hits in an appearance, and the 10th time in her last 12 games.

“Tonight was exceptional,” Hanson said. “Playing softball past college has always been a dream, even though the options are limited. To be able to be drafted in the first five feels incredible. My offense, my teammates are amazing and I had complete confidence in them to come back and had a great feeling about this game the whole time.”

No. 8 Seminoles Fall 5-1 At No. 5 Florida.
Florida scored all five runs in the sixth inning to earn the win in the Fresh From Florida Sunshine Showdown.

GAINESVILLE, FL - The matchup between two top-10 teams was the battle everyone expected until No. 5 Florida (42-7) brought in five runs in the bottom of the sixth inning and went on to a 5-1 win on Wednesday night against No. 8 Florida State (39-9) in front of 2,392 people at Katie Seashole Pressly Stadium.

Jessie Warren had both hits for Florida State on the night, including a solo home run in the top of the seventh. It was her 13th home run of the season and 75th of her career, moving her up into a tie for 13th in NCAA history along with Louisiana's Lexi Elkins (2013-16), Coastal Carolina's Morgan Noad (2013-16) and Ball State's Jennifer Gilbert (2011-14).

"What a game and what an opportunity for us tonight," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "Meghan King had a great start for us and we had a couple of chances against Barnhill, too. Even in their big inning, we came up just short on diving catches, close calls at first, close plays down the line, but that's the game sometimes. It's a game of inches and you need to love it when the inches don't go your way as much as when they do. Tip your cap to Florida on executing when they needed to. Loved how we fought to the final out tonight and looking forward to another challenge this weekend at Notre Dame."

FSU starter Meghan King opened the bottom of the first in impressive fashion, setting down Hannah Adams, Amanda Lorenz and Nicole DeWitt in order, all on strikeouts.

Warren led off the Seminole second inning with a single through the left side. Zoe Casas put down a sacrifice bunt to the circle, but UF's Kelly Barnhill threw it wide of first base, giving the Seminoles runners on second and third with nobody out in the inning. Both would be left on base as Barnhill recorded a pair of strikeouts and a pop out.

Florida threatened in the bottom of the second inning as Kayli Kvistad walked and Aleshia Ocasio singled to put Gators on first and second with zero outs. A fielder's choice to third moved runners to the corners with one out, and a grounder to Warren was thrown home to retire Kvistad at the plate for out number two. King got the Seminoles out of the inning by inducing a ground out to short for the third out.

Carsyn Gordon drew a walk in the top of the sixth inning, extending her streak of reaching base safely to 27 consecutive games. She tried to steal second with two outs in the inning, but was narrowly thrown out to end the inning.

Florida started its five-run sixth inning with a single by Lorenz. DeWitt followed with a line drive to center and FSU's Morgan Klaevemann nearly secured the diving catch, but it popped out of her glove for an RBI double as Florida took a 1-0 lead with nobody out.

Kvistad walked and Ocasio put a bunt down the first base line and was called safe on a close play at the bag to load the bases. Janell Wheaton lifted a soft line drive toward the 5-6 hole and the ball remained just out of reach of a diving Warren and Cali Harrod, bouncing into left field for an RBI single to make it a 2-0 game.

King retired the next batter on a fielder's choice and was replaced in the circle by Cassidy Davis. UF's Sophia Reynoso hit a ball just fair inside the left field line for a bases-clearing triple. Davis closed out the inning with a strikeout and a groundout as UF took a 5-0 lead to the seventh inning.

Warren launched the first pitch of the top of the seventh over the wall in center to avoid the shutout.

King (14-6) took the loss, giving up five runs on seven hits with two walks and six strikeouts. Davis gave up one hit and recorded a strikeout in her 0.2 innings of relief.

Florida State Clinches ACC Atlantic Division With 9-2 Win At ND.

NOTRE DAME, IN — Scoring in five of its seven innings at the plate, No. 8 Florida State (40-9, 17-2) took game one of the series with Notre Dame (30-19, 12-9 ACC) by a score of 9-2 on Friday night at Melissa Cook Stadium.

With FSU’s win, along with the Boston College 4-2 loss at Louisville, the Seminoles improve to 17-2 in conference play and clinch the first-ever ACC Atlantic Division title. Florida State can secure the overall 2018 ACC regular season championship with one more conference win in its final five ACC games this season.

It also marks the 31st 40-win season in FSU history and the ninth time in Lonni Alameda’s 10 years as head coach at Florida State.

“Good job for us to a quick lead and put the pressure on,” said Alameda. “We were patient at the plate and aggressive on the bases and didn’t let down. Our defense played very well and slowed down Notre Dame’s chances with nice catches and a bunch of double plays. Nice to win the Atlantic Division today, but our goal is to win the entire conference in the regular season, so we still have some work to do.”

Florida State opened the scoring in the top of the first inning as the Seminoles loaded the bases with nobody outs on walks to Jessie Warren and Carsyn Gordon, along with a single up the middle by Sydney Sherrill. Cali Harrod drove in her 24th RBI of the season on a groundout to third to give the Noles a 1-0 lead.

The Seminoles scored three runs in the top of the second, all with two outs, to make it a 4-0 game. Morgan Klaevemann drew a walk and stole second for the 121st SB of her career. Warren hit a ground ball toward short, and it went through the legs of ND’s Morgan Reed, extending the inning and allowing Klaevemann to score.

Gordon followed with a single up the middle and Sherrill walked on four pitches to load the bases for the second-straight inning. Zoe Casas knocked a 2-1 pitch back up the middle to drive in two runs and make it 4-0 FSU.

Elizabeth Mason led off the Seminole third inning with a single to right center and quickly stole second. A single by Cassidy Davis hit the third base bag and the runners ended up on second and third on the play. Anna Shelnutt followed with a groundout to second and Mason was also retired at the plate for a double play.

The inning continued with a pinch-hit walk by Mackenzie Puckett, extending her perfect offensive production as the freshman has drawn a walk in all four plate appearances this season. Klaevemann re-entered at first and a wild pitch moved her and Davis up to second and third with two outs. Warren brought them both in on a single to left for her 250th career RBI, which ranks 16th in NCAA history.

Kylee Hanson did not allow a base hit to Notre Dame until the top of the third inning on a leadoff double by Alexis Holloway. A strikeout and a single put Irish runners on the corners with one out. FSU’s Mason made an impressive sliding catch in foul territory down the right field line for out number two and fired home, but the throw was not in time as the Irish cut it to 6-1 on the sacrifice fly. Hanson ended the inning with a groundout to third.

Savanna Copeland entered the game to pitch for the Noles to start the bottom of the fifth, ending Hanson’s day in the circle. The senior improved to 24-3 on the season, tossing 4.0 innings and allowing just one run on two hits with two walks and four strikeouts.

Copeland allowed a leadoff walk in the ND fifth inning, but induced a double play to the next batter and kept the inning scoreless with a groundout to third base.

Florida State added two more runs in the top of the sixth inning as Sherrill led off with her third walk of the game and stole second base. Casas hit a single up the middle to put runners on the corners with nobody out. Harrod grounded out to the circle for out number one, but Sherrill was able to score from third on the play to make it 7-1 FSU.

Mason hit an RBI double to right, but got caught in between second and third for out number two. Davis hit a single to right and was pinch run for by Korina Rosario. Rosario stole second but would be left stranded as a pop out ended the inning.

ND’s Abby Sweet led off the sixth inning with a double, and an RBI single by Reed brought in the second run of the game for the Irish. Back-to-back walks and a single loaded the bases with one out and Davis entered to pitch for the Seminoles. The sophomore got the Noles out of the inning with their second double play of the game as a groundball to third base was grabbed by Sherrill and she stepped on the bag, and tagged the runner that tried to get back to the base.

The Noles closed out the scoring with a lone run in the top of the seventh as Klaevemann started the inning with an infield single. She later stole second for FSU’s seventh SB of the game and scored on a two-out batted ball by Casas to second base that was misplayed, giving FSU the 9-2 final score.

Davis pitched around a lone hit in the bottom of the seventh to secure the win. She gave up just one hit in her 1.2 innings without giving up a run or a walk, with one strikeout. Copeland allowed three hits, one run and three walks in 1.1 innings of relief.

Florida State Wins 2018 ACC Regular Season Championship.
The No. 8 Seminoles top Notre Dame, 11-2 in six innings, to secure their sixth consecutive ACC regular season title and 16th in program history.

NOTRE DAME, IN - For the sixth consecutive season and the 16th time in program history, the Seminoles have won the ACC regular season championship as No. 8 Florida State (41-9, 18-2 ACC) defeated Notre Dame (30-20, 12-10 ACC) by a score of 11-2 in six innings on Saturday afternoon.

The Seminole offense came from all over the lineup on Saturday as nine different players recorded a hit, eight different Noles scored a run and seven separate players drove in an RBI.

"Today was an example of what we've been doing all season in having a complete team win," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "We had quality at bats up and down the lineup and executed in quite a few situations. Meghan, Savanna and Cass combined for a two-hitter and did a great job in the circle for us. Excited on winning the conference regular season as it is one of our goals every season. There are still some things we can improve on and I look forward to closing out the series tomorrow afternoon."

Florida State exploded for six runs in the top of the second inning to open the scoring. Elizabeth Mason drew a one-out walk and moved to second on an infield single by Cali Harrod. Dani Morgan drove in the first run of the game with a single up the middle to make it 1-0 FSU. Morgan Klaevemann followed with a bunt down the first base line, scoring Harrod and the Seminole runners ended up on second and third on the play.

Carsyn Gordon drove in two more with a two-out single up the middle and immediately stole second base. Sydney Sherrill drew a walk and both runners perfectly executed a double steal to move into scoring position. Zoe Casas made it 6-0 Seminoles with a two-run single to center, marking her 26th RBI of the season.

Meghan King started strong in the circle for the Seminoles facing just six batters through the first two innings, including a bizarre inning-ending double play in the second inning. Melissa Rochford was hit by a pitch with one out in the inning and moved up to second on a wild pitch. King struck out Katie Marino, but the ball got away from Mason and she gathered it and threw to first for out number two. Rochford moved up to third and tried to score on the throw to first, but Gordon's throw to Mason was in time and she tagged her to end the inning.

Notre Dame scored its first run of the game in the bottom of the third inning as the Irish got runners to the corners with nobody out after a walk by Sara White and an infield single by MK Bonamy. A one-out groundout by Ali Wester to second base was deep enough to score White and cut the lead to 6-1.

The Irish added another run in the bottom of the fourth as Cait Brooks was hit by a pitch and advanced around the bases on a trio of wild pitches to make it a 6-2 game.

Jessie Warren hit a bases-clearing double with two outs in the fifth to increase the FSU lead to 9-2. Cassidy Davis led off the inning with a single and was pinch-run for by Korina Rosario. Rosario stole second and walks to Mason and Klaevemann loaded the bases for the senior third baseman. Warren hit it off the wall in center to drive in all three runs, increasing her career RBI total to 253.

The Seminoles brought in two more in the top of the sixth as Sherrill led off with an infield single. Casas reached on an ND error and both moved up a base on a wild pitch. Davis reached on fielder's choice to the pitcher, scoring Sherrill from third to make it 10-2 Seminoles. Anna Shelnutt closed out the scoring with an RBI single to right center.

Davis tossed a scoreless sixth inning to secure the run-rule victory. Savanna Copeland allowed a hit and a walk in 1.0 innings, while King improved to 15-6 on the season, giving up two runs on one hit with two walks and four strikeouts in 4.0 innings.

Seminoles Fall At Notre Dame, 3-1.
Florida State leaves 11 runners on base in Sunday's loss at Notre Dame.

NOTRE DAME, IN - The Seminole offense tallied nine hits and drew three walks, but were unable to get the key hits with runners on base as No. 8 Florida State (41-10, 18-3 ACC) stranded 11 runners in a 3-1 loss at Notre Dame (31-20, 13-10 ACC) on Sunday afternoon at Melissa Cook Stadium.

"We struggled in situations today and didn't take advantage of our opportunities offensively," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "Tip your hat to Notre Dame as they made several impressive defensive plays and executed when they needed to. Quite a few good things to build on from today as we move forward. Tough loss, but we will learn and grow heading into next week at NC State."

The Seminoles opened the scoring in the top of the second inning. Cali Harrod lifted a single into shallow left field with one out and quickly stole second base. Dani Morgan brought her in to score a batter later with an RBI double to right center.

Notre Dame tallied three hits and scored two runs to take a 2-1 lead in the second inning. Cait Brooks led off with a single to right and scored on an RBI double by Katie Marino. Sara White put the Irish in front with an RBI single up the middle with one out. Kylee Hanson got the Seminoles out of the inning with a strikeout and a groundout.

Florida State threatened in the fourth inning, as singles by Harrod and Morgan, along with stolen bases from both of them, had Seminole runners on second and third with one out. They would be left stranded on base after a strikeout and a fly out.

Jessie Warren led off the FSU fifth inning with a double, moved to third on a ground out and Zoe Casas walked to put runners on the corners with two outs. Cassidy Davis hit a solid grounder up the middle and Notre Dame second baseman Katie Marino didn't field the ball cleanly, but it bounced off her glove and arm and ricochets directly to shortstop Morgan Reed who stepped on second to end the inning.

The Seminoles loaded the bases in the sixth inning on a bunt single by Harrod, a hit-by-pitch to Anna Shelnutt and a two-out walk by Warren. A strikeout left all three on base to end the inning.

Meghan King entered to pitch in the fourth inning and kept the Irish off the scoreboard until the bottom of the sixth, as Melissa Rochford made it 3-1 Notre Dame with an RBI double to right center. It was the only hit and run allowed by King in her 3.0 innings of relief as she recorded five strikeouts.

Hanson (24-4) took the loss, marking her first loss since March 2 against Hofstra. She allowed three hits and two runs in 3.0 innings with zero walks and one strikeout.

Noles Earn Run-Rule Victory Over NC State.
No. 11 Florida State takes game one of the series with a 9-1 win in five innings.

RALEIGH, NC - Seminole power was on display on Friday night as No. 11 Florida State (42-10, 19-3 ACC) hit six extra-base hits, including three home runs, on its way to a 9-1 win in five innings over NC State (23-29, 5-16 ACC) to take game one of the series at Dail Stadium.

"Glad to see several of the adjustments we made in practice this week come out on the field today," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "We had some patient at-bats and quality defensive plays. Meghan and Savanna pitched well and hit their spots as well. Good start to the series and looking forward to do it again tomorrow."

Florida State's aggression allowed the Noles to get an early 1-0 lead in the top of the first. Carsyn Gordon earned a one-out walk, extending her streak of reaching base safely to 31 consecutive games. Sydney Sherrill followed with a sacrifice bunt to third for out number two and Gordon sprinted past second for the vacated base. The throw from the NC State second baseman Chandley Garner was off target, allowing Gordon to score on the play.

Dani Morgan lined a triple off the wall in right with one out in the top of the second inning, but a strikeout and a groundout would leave her stranded on base.

The Seminoles added three more runs in the third inning, highlighted by a two-run HR Jessie Warren, her 14th of the season. Morgan Klaevemann started the inning with a single up the middle and Warren launched the first pitch of her AB over the wall in left to make it 3-0 FSU. It was the 76th home run of her career, moving into a tie for 11th in NCAA history with Megan Baltzell (Longwood - 2012-15) and Jenny Dalton (Arizona - 1993-96). It also marked the 255th RBI of her career, passing Oklahoma's Lauren Chamberlain for 15th all-time.

The inning continued with a single by Gordon and she stole second and moved to third on a ground out. A wild pitch from NC State starter Kama Woodall allowed her to score to make it 4-0 Seminoles heading to the bottom of three.

NC State scored its only run of the game by starting its half of the third with an infield single by Angie Rizzi and a walk by Haylee Kobziak with nobody out. A sacrifice bunt moved the runners into scoring position and a groundout to short allowed the Wolfpack run to score, cutting the FSU lead to 4-1.

Gordon added four more runs for Florida State in the fourth with a grand slam to right field, the fourth grand slam of her career. Elizabeth Mason led off the inning with a walk and Klaevemann and Warren added a pair of infield singles to load the bases.

Mason gave FSU an eight-run lead with a solo home run to centerfield. Klaevemann added a double later in the inning, her third hit of the day, but would be left stranded.

Savanna Copeland entered to pitch the fifth for the Noles and retired all three batters she faced. Meghan King pitched 4.0 innings to earn the win and improve to 16-6 on the season. She scattered three hits and one run with one walk and two strikeouts.

Kylee Hanson Tosses No-Hitter In 5-0 Win Over NC State.
The redshirt senior completes her fourth career no-hitter as the Seminoles take the series over the Wolfpack.

RALEIGH, NC - Redshirt senior Kylee Hanson continued her impressive season for the Garnet and Gold, tossing a complete-game no-hitter on Saturday for No. 11 Florida State (43-10, 20-3 ACC) as the Seminoles won the season series over NC State (23-30, 5-17 ACC) with a 5-0 victory at Dail Stadium.

Hanson scattered three walks and recorded seven strikeouts in the win to improve to 25-4 on the season. The best chance the Wolfpack had to get in the hit column came in the bottom of the fourth inning when FSU centerfielder Morgan Klaevemann ranged over 100 feet to make a catch on the run in left center to rob an extra-base hit from Lily Bishop.

"It was all defense today and a total team effort," said Hanson. "I couldn't have done it without the people behind me and I'm not sure there's much more I can say about it. Morgan and Syd made some incredible plays and everyone else made the routine ones. It was awesome."

It is the second time the Seminoles have recorded a no-hitter in 2018, as Hanson joins Meghan King and Cassidy Davis who combined for perfect game against Northern Iowa on February 23. It is Hanson's fourth career no-hitter, as the All-American pitcher had three previous no-no's at Florida Atlantic.

It marks the fifth year in a row that the Seminoles have won 20 conference games in a season and Florida State is the only school in league history to win 20 ACC games in a single year, holding the ACC record of 24 wins in 2014 and 2017.

"Proud of the team win today," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "Proud of the cohesion we have going right now as a team as we roll into postseason play. It is really neat to see everyone playing as a team out there. Kylee pitched great, we played great defense and did a lot of good things on the bases and in the box. Really proud of Jessie Warren on the season and career she is having and of the program as a whole. We are in a good spot as we roll into the postseason."

Jessica Warren wasted no time in putting the Seminoles on the board, launching a solo home run to right center to lead off the FSU first inning. It marked her 15th home run of the season and 77th of her career, ranking 11th all-time in NCAA history.

Carsyn Gordon followed with a walk and the Noles got runners on the corners after a batted ball from Sydney Sherrill was misplayed for an error. Gordon came in to score on a wild pitch as Florida State took a 2-0 lead to the bottom of the first.

FSU added two more runs in the second inning to extend its lead to 4-0. Sabrina Stutsman opened the frame with a single to right and Klaevemann followed with a bunt single in front of the plate. Warren was hit by a pitch to load the bases and Gordon's second walk of the game forced home a run. Zoe Casas drove in the second run of the inning on a groundout to second base, but it was deep enough to score Klaevemann from third.

Klaevemann hit a one-out bunt single in the FSU sixth and dashed to third on a single to right by Warren. Deja Bush entered to pinch-run at first and quickly stole second for her 12th SB of the season. Gordon made it 5-0 Seminoles with an RBI single to center.

Jessie Warren Hits HR in Third-Straight Game As Noles Sweep Wolfpack.
The redshirt senior hit her 78th career HR in the third inning.

RALEIGH, NC - The Seminoles used a pair of home runs, including the 78th of her career by Jessie Warren, to carry No. 11 Florida State (44-10, 21-3 ACC) to a 3-0 shutout over NC State (23-30, 5-17 ACC) to complete the series sweep over the Wolfpack on Sunday afternoon.

Meghan King and Kylee Hanson combined to toss a one-hitter against NC State, scattering two walks and posting seven total strikeouts. The Seminole pitching staff only allowed four total hits to NC State over the three-game series.

It marks the fifth conference sweep of the season for the Noles and Florida State has swept 36 of its last 49 ACC series, dating back to 2012.

"Great way to finish today," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "Meghan pitched great in the circle and we made them work offensively. Jessie is having a special season and career and gave us an early lead which helped keep the pressure on. Good to scrap out a win as it is not easy to sweep a team and gives us some momentum heading into ACCs next weekend."

Jessie Warren continued her power hitting and put the Seminoles on the board with a solo home run in the top of the third inning. She fouled three consecutive pitches off from NC State pitcher Devin Wallace before hitting a home run deep over the wall in right center.

NC State's Macauley Prickett led off the bottom of the third inning with a single to center, marking the first base hit allowed by the Seminole pitching staff in 12.0 innings. King retired the next three batters to maintain the 1-0 FSU lead.

Zoe Casas made it 2-0 in the top of the fourth with a solo home run to center, her third HR of the season.

Cali Harrod opened the FSU fifth inning with a walk and stole second base for her 29th SB of the season. A groundout moved Harrod to third with two outs in the inning. Wallace attempted to intentionally walk Warren, but her first pitch was well wide of the plate, allowing Harrod to score on the wild pitch to extend the Seminole lead to 3-0.

King (17-6) was replaced in the circle for the sixth inning and had an outstanding start in the circle. She tossed 5.0 scoreless innings with just one hit and two walks allowed, while striking out four. Hanson entered for the sixth inning and retired all six batters she faced for her first save of the season.

No. 10 FSU Tops Louisville; Sherrill Named Top 10 NFCA Finalist.
The Seminoles defeat the Cardinals, 7-4, on Thursday morning as Sydney Sherrill is named a Top 10 Finalist for NFCA National Freshman of the Year.

ATLANTA, GA - Falling behind 3-0 in the first two innings, the Seminoles earned a come-from-behind win on Thursday morning as No. 10 Florida State (45-10) defeated Louisville (33-20) by a score of 7-4 to advance to the semifinals of the 2018 ACC Softball Championship at Shirley Clements Mewborn Stadium.

Florida State has won 13 consecutive games in the ACC Softball Championship and will play in the semifinals of the tournament for the 13th consecutive season.

"Love the fight and trust of this team," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "After giving up some early runs and struggling the first time through the order, no one doubted, lost focus or stopped competing. Meghan came in and pitched extremely well for us in relief and we took advantage of our at-bats throughout the game. We expect another challenge tomorrow and I am looking forward to it."

Louisville took an early 1-0 lead in the top of the first as Sidney Melton hit the second pitch of the game over the wall for a solo home run, her third of the season.

The Cardinals added two more runners in the second inning, ending the day in the circle for FSU starting pitcher Kylee Hanson. Louisville loaded the bases with one out on singles by Nicole Pufahl, Blaire Bass and Kyra Snyder. Meghan King entered to pitch for the Seminoles and an FSU error allowed the second run of the game to score. A walk to Melton pushed the UofL lead to 3-0 before King ended the inning with a groundout and a strikeout.

Sydney Sherrill cut the Louisville lead to 3-2 in the bottom of the third inning, hitting a two-run home run to center to score Carsyn Gordon, who walked earlier in the inning.

The Seminoles scored four runs in the bottom of the fourth to move in front, 6-3. Elizabeth Mason led off with a single up the middle and Cali Harrod followed with a walk on four pitches. A wild pitch by Louisville relief pitcher Danielle Watson moved the runners to second and third, allowing Anna Shelnutt to tie the game with a sacrifice fly to right field.

FSU took the lead on a UofL error off the bat of Jessie Warren and she came in to score on a two-out RBI single by Gordon to right field. Sherrill continued the inning with a single off the third base bag, and a Zoe Casas ground ball to second base was misplayed to allow Gordon to score. Korina Rosario entered to pinch run at first and stole second, but a groundout ended the inning.

Louisville scored an unearned run in the sixth inning to make it a 7-4 game. A walk, an FSU fielding error and a single loaded the bases for the Cardinals with nobody out. King retired the next batter with a strikeout, and a ground ball to Warren at third was almost an inning-ending double play, but Alison Szydlowski beat the throw at first, allowing a run to score.

King retired the first batter of the Louisville seventh inning and was replaced in the circle by Cassidy Davis. The sophomore allowed a pair of singles before a ground ball to Warren at third ended the game with a double play. King improved to 18-6 with the win, allowing one unearned run and three hits over 5.0 innings with three walks and three strikeouts. Hanson allowed three runs, two earned, with four hits and a strikeout in her 1.1-inning start.

Seminoles Advance To Sixth-Straight ACC Championship Game.
No. 10 Florida State defeats Notre Dame 6-1 to reach the conference title game for the sixth year in a row.

ATLANTA, GA - For the second-straight day, No. 10 Florida State (46-10) fell behind early at the ACC Championship, but scored the final six runs of the game to take a 6-1 win on Friday over Notre Dame (32-21) to advance to Saturday's 2018 ACC Championship Game.

Florida State will play in the ACC title game for the sixth year in a row and will play either No. 2-seed Pitt or No. 3-seed North Carolina on Saturday, May 12 at 12:00 p.m.

Sydney Sherrill went 2-for-3 at the plate and hit her 25th double of the season, extending her FSU record and moving into a tie for 17th in NCAA single-season history.

"Quality day today," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "We had some chances early but just didn't get the swing off the in the first couple of innings. We worked our at bats and situations later in the game and Meghan and Kylee had really good days in the circle. Now we get to wait and see who comes out of the Pitt and UNC game to have a real Atlantic versus Coastal ACC Championship Game tomorrow."

The Seminoles threatened in the first inning, loading the bases with one out on walks by Carsyn Gordon, Sherrill and Zoe Casas, but a fly out and a strikeout ended the inning.

Cali Harrod led off the FSU second inning with a double and moved to third on a sacrifice bunt by Anna Shelnutt. Morgan Klaevemann followed with a bunt single in front of the plate and took second on the play as the base was vacated. Both were left stranded after a pop out and a strikeout.

FSU starter Meghan King faced the minimum through the first two innings before allowing a solo home run to Sara White to start the top of the third.

Florida State took the lead in the bottom of the third as Sherrill led off with a double to left center. Casas tied the game with an RBI triple to right and Dani Morgan put the Noles in front with a single to center with nobody out. Morgan stole second and moved up to third later in the inning on a ground out. Shelnutt made it 3-1 Seminoles with an RBI single to left.

FSU added another run in the bottom of the fifth inning as Casas led off with a walk and was pinch-run for by Korina Rosario. Morgan added an infield single and a groundout moved the runners to second and third with one out. Harrod hit a ground ball to the circle, and ND pitcher Alexis Holloway threw back to third to retire Rosario. The play continued as ND third baseman Melissa Rochford attempted to double off Morgan, but her throw went into right field, allowing a run to score and extend the Seminole lead to 4-1.

King retired eight batters in a row until allowing a one-out single to Ali Wester in the top of the sixth inning. She was replaced in the circle by Kylee Hanson after a walk placed ND runners on first and second with two outs and Hanson ended the inning with a strikeout.

The Seminoles added two more runs in the bottom of the sixth for the 6-1 final score. Klaevemann opened the inning with a single to right and stole second with one out. She came in to score on Gordon's RBI single to left field. Gordon stole second and moved to third on an ND throwing error before coming in to score on an RBI single by Sherrill, her 46th RBI of the season.

Hanson allowed one runner in the seventh on a one-out hit-by-pitch, before a groundball up the middle was grabbed by Harrod, she stepped on second and threw to first for a game-ending double play. It was FSU's third double play of the game.

Hanson picked up her second save of the season, striking out one and facing the minimum over 1.1 innings with no runs, walks or hits allowed. King (19-6) earned the win with 5.2 innings of work, allowing just one run on three hits with three walks and five strikeouts.

Anna Shelnutt Hits Walk-Off HR As Seminoles Earn 2018 ACC Championship.
No. 10 Florida State scores four runs in the bottom of the seventh, including a three-run, walk-off home run to defeat Pitt, 5-4.

ATLANTA - Trailing 4-1 entering the bottom of the seventh, No. 10 Florida State (47-10) scored four runs, including a three-run, walk-off home run from Anna Shelnutt to earn a 5-4 victory over Pitt (33-18-1) to win the 2018 ACC Championship.

Sydney Sherrill started the seventh-inning rally with a leadoff single up the middle, and walks to Zoe Casas and Elizabeth Mason loaded the bases with one out in the inning. Cali Harrod made it a 4-2 game on an RBI groundout, setting the stage for Shelnutt's two-out, walk-off home run for the 5-4 win.

The Seminoles trailed in every game of the 2018 ACC Softball Championship and increased their winning streak in the tournament to 15 consecutive games as Florida State clinched its 16th conference championship in program history and fifth in a row.

Sherrill, Shelnutt and Meghan King earned a spot on the 2018 ACC All-Tournament Team, with Sherrill being named Tournament MVP.

"Pitt has had a little swag with them all weekend," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "They had a come from behind win against Virginia Tech. They have had a great season. They scrap it out. We knew it would be a dogfight with them the whole time. We had many opportunities in the beginning and they shut us down. What a tremendous game. I'm really proud of our kids. This was a really good championship ball game."

Pitt put the first two batters on base with a hit-by-pitch and a walk to start the top of the first, but FSU starting pitcher Kylee Hanson left them stranded by forcing a groundout and recording a pair of strikeouts.

Florida State also put its first two hitters on base in its half of the first, but couldn't manage to push a run across. Jessie Warren led off the game with a single up the middle and Carsyn Gordon followed with a line drive that went into the glove of Pitt pitcher Kayla Harris with such force that it ripped the glove off her hand for an infield single. Warren was retired on a steal attempt of third and two runners were left stranded after a fielder's choice and a pop out.

Warren hit another single in the bottom of the third and moved up to second on a two-out walk by Sherrill. A groundout left both runners on base.

Hanson retired nine in a row until Olivia Gray started the Pitt fourth inning with a single to left, the first hit of the game for the Panthers. Gray moved to second with a sacrifice bunt and on to third after a fly out to center. The game remained scoreless as Pitt's Kaitlyn Kruger lined out to first to end the inning.

FSU stranded two more runners in the bottom of the fourth inning as Dani Morgan led off with a bunt single and a two-out walk by Shelnutt put runners on first and second, but a strikeout left both Seminoles stranded.

Sherril and Casas hit a pair of two-out singles in the bottom of the fifth, but FSU and Pitt stayed knotted at 0-0 after five complete innings.

Pitt scored four runs in the top of the sixth inning to take a 4-0 lead. Giorgiana Zeremenko led off with a single, and a pair of one-out singles brought in the first run of the game. With runners on the corners, Sherrill fielded a ball at second and her throw home was wide to make it 2-0 Pitt. A wild pitch and a passed ball brought in the final two runs of the inning.

Florida State got a run back in the bottom of the sixth as Mason led off with a walk and moved to second on an infield single by Shelnutt. Warren drove in career RBI No. 258 with a two-out single to right, cutting the Pitt lead to 4-1 and setting the stage for the seventh-inning magic.

King earned the win for the Seminoles, her third win of the weekend and 20th of the season. She allowed just one hit over the final 1.2 innings with zero walks and three strikeouts. Hanson gave up four hits and four runs, two earned, with two walks and six strikeouts over 5.1 innings.

No. 6 Florida State opened the NCAA Tallahassee Regional with an 8-0 win in five innings over Jacksonville State.

TALLAHASSEE, FL - Recording the first 10 outs of the game via strikeout, Kylee Hanson was on fire in the circle on Friday as the redshirt senior recorded a no-hitter as No. 6 Florida State (48-10) posted an 8-0 win in five innings over Jacksonville State (33-24) in the opening game of the NCAA Tallahassee Regional.

Hanson (26-4) tied a season high with 13 strikeouts as the Gamecocks only put two balls in play for the game on a pair of fly outs to centerfield. She struck out the side in each of the first three innings and has recorded three strikeouts in an inning 16 times this season, with 64 total innings in 2018 with multiple strikeouts.

It is the fifth no-hitter of Hanson's career and the second as a member of the Garnet and Gold. The redshirt senior did not allow a hit over 7.0 innings in a 5-0 win at NC State back on May 5.

With the win, FSU advances to play Auburn (41-15) on Saturday, May 19 at 12:00 p.m. The winner of that game will play in Sunday's 12:00 p.m. regional final, while the loser will play again on Saturday at 5:00 p.m.

It marks the first run-rule victory for the Seminoles in NCAA Tournament play since a 13-1 win in six innings over UAB in the Athens Regional on May 21, 2011.

"It is always nice to get the first one under your belt," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "Jax State had a good pitcher hitting her spot with (Faith) Sims and for us to get over the nerves of the first couple rounds of at bats was good. We've been consistent all season at being loose and having some fun and Kylee had a great day today and was obviously spinning it. We've had some really good bullpens this week and we had some big expectations for today and it was a lot fun to see. Good start and ready to move on to tomorrow."

The Seminoles took a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the third inning by way of a two-RBI single by Sydney Sherrill. Cali Harrod started the offense with a one-out single to left center and a pair of four-pitch walks with two outs to Jessie Warren and Carsyn Gordon loaded the bases for the ACC Freshman of the Year. Sherrill drove in season RBI No. 47 and 48 to give Florida State the early lead.

FSU scored five runs before recording an out in the fourth inning and finished with six total runs for the 8-0 final score. Dani Morgan led off with an infield single and Anna Shelnutt followed with a walk. Elizabeth Mason made it 3-0 Seminoles with an RBI single to right field.

Harrod walked to load the bases and Cassidy Davis entered to pinch hit and fought back from a 1-2 count to draw a walk on eight pitches to extend the lead to 4-0. Warren cleared the bases with a double to right center, putting the Noles up 7-0 and she moved into 12th place in NCAA history with her 261st career RBI.

Zoe Casas hit an RBI double later in the inning to score Warren, marking the 95th double hit by FSU to set a school single-season record. The 2018 Seminoles passed the mark of 94 doubles set just last year in 2017.

Carsyn Gordon's Inside-The-Park, Walk-Off HR Carries Noles Over Auburn.
No. 6 Florida State tops No. 18 Auburn, 2-1, in eight innings to advance to Sunday's regional final.

TALLAHASSEE, FL - After narrowly missing extra bases in the fifth inning on a leaping catch at the wall by Auburn's Morgan Podany, FSU's Carsyn Gordon came through in the eighth inning, leading off the frame with an inside-the-park, walk-off home run into the right field corner to give No. 6 Florida State (49-10) a 2-1 win over No. 18 Auburn (41-16) on Saturday afternoon at JoAnne Graf Field.

The victory places FSU in the finals of the NCAA Tallahassee Regional, which will begin at 12:00 p.m. on Sunday, May 20.

"What a great game," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "That's what it comes down to when you get a strong team and a strong regional with a team like Auburn. It was a great game, a good battle on our part and I'm proud of the kids. There was a moment when they scored first that we had the decision whether to keep fighting or not and they beared down with the one run score and we knew we would keep swinging it and make something happen and for Cali to come up big for us and tie up the ballgame.

"One swing. It has been a motto of ours for a while now; one swing can change a game. Yes, it's a silly quote sometimes but it's true if you can stay in it and live it and it was awesome for Carsyn to be able to do that for us. I think King had close to 110-115 pitches today and battled each one was great and sticking to the game plan and getting after it. Proud of the group."

FSU starting pitcher Meghan King opened Saturday's game the exact same way Kylee Hanson did on Friday, by striking out the side to start the first inning. It marked the fourth time this season that King had recorded three strikeouts in an inning.

The Seminoles had runners on in each of the first three innings, but were unable to bring any runs across. Jessie Warren opened the bottom of the first with a walk but was left stranded on second after a pair of strikeouts and a groundout. Dani Morgan led off the Seminole second inning with a bunt single and dashed all the way to third base on Anna Shelnutt's sacrifice bunt for the first out of the inning. A strikeout and line out left her on base.

Warren walked again in the third inning and Sydney Sherrill knocked a two-out single through the left side, but a strikeout kept the game scoreless after three complete innings.

Auburn opened the scoring in the top of the fourth inning, loading the bases with one out on a bunt single by Casey McCrackin, a fielder's choice by Tannon Snow and a walk by Alyssa Rivera. Kendall Veach hit a sacrifice fly to center to put the Tigers up, 1-0.

Shelnutt sparked the Seminole offense with a one-out double into the right field corner in the FSU fourth inning. Deja Bush entered to pinch-run at second and moved up to third base on a groundout by Elizabeth Mason. Cali Harrod fell behind 0-2 in her at bat, battled two foul balls, but came through with a two-out, RBI single to center to tie the game at 1-1.

King retired the final 14 batters of the game to put the Seminoles in position to win it in the bottom of the eighth. She improved to 21-6 with the win, scattering three hits and one walk over 8.0 innings and finishing with eight strikeouts.

Kylee Hanson Tosses Gem As FSU Wins NCAA Tallahassee Regional.
Taking a perfect game into the sixth inning, Kylee Hanson led the Noles to a 10-0 win on Sunday.

TALLAHASSEE, FL - Retiring the first 15 batters she faced, Kylee Hanson had another dominant day in the circle as No. 6 Florida State (50-10) defeated Jacksonville State (35-25) by a score of 10-0 on Sunday afternoon at JoAnne Graf Field to win the 2018 NCAA Tallahassee Regional.

Hanson had not allowed a hit and recorded 23 strikeouts in her first 10.0 innings against Jacksonville State during the regional, and had a perfect game going on Sunday until Hayley Sims hit a double to left center to start the bottom of the sixth inning. The redshirt senior finished with 11 strikeouts in 6.0 innings, allowing one hit and retiring 18 of the 19 batters she faced to improve to 27-4 on the season.

It was Hanson's second streak of 10.0 innings without allowing a hit this season as she recorded 10.2 hitless innings in games at Notre Dame (April 29) and at NC State (May 5).

The Seminoles advance to the NCAA Super Regional round for the seventh time in program history and the sixth time in a row. FSU will be a host school for the third year in arrow and will welcome the winner of the Baton Rouge Regional - either No. 11 LSU or No. 22 Louisiana - on May 24-27. Specific dates and game times will be determined following the completion of all NCAA Regionals.

"First of all, congrats to Jacksonville State on an amazing year," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "The games they played yesterday were with such passion and heart and that comes from the top down. Their coach is a good character coach and has a really cool program. So it was great to play against a team like that.

"As for us, again Kylee set the tone and we went out with the same gameplan. Really made it comfortable for the offense to go out and do their thing and capitalize. Super excited to be heading on to next weekend and hosting, too."

The Seminoles broke out for five runs in the top of the third inning to take a 5-0 lead. Jessie Warren led off with a double to right center and walks to Carsyn Gordon and Sydney Sherrill loaded the bases with nobody out. Back-to-back sacrifice flies to right field by Anna Shelnutt and Dani Morgan opened the scoring for the Noles.

The inning continued on an RBI infield single by Cali Harrod and Davis followed with a two-run single to left field to put FSU up 5-0.

Warren led off the FSU fourth inning with a single to left center and was pinch-run for by Deja Bush. Bush stole second, moved to third on a JSU error and Gordon followed with her third walk of the game.

Sherrill lined a double to right to score Bush and extend the FSU lead to 6-0. It marked her 26th double of the season, which leads the NCAA, is tied for third in ACC history and 10th most in NCAA single-season history.

Shelnutt was hit by a pitch to load the bases and Zoe Casas lined an RBI single to right field to push the Seminole advantage to 7-0.

Florida State added three more in the top of the seventh inning for the 10-0 final score. Gordon drew her fourth walk, setting a career high, and scored on Sherrill's 10th home run of the season, a two-run HR to center. Shelnutt was hit by a pitch for the second time and came around to score on an RBI double off the wall in left by Casas, her seventh multi-RBI game of the season.

Davis allowed one hit in her inning of relief to close out the game in the bottom of the seventh.

Seventh-Inning Rally Comes Up Short As Noles Fall To LSU, 6-5.

No. 6 Florida State drops game one of the NCAA Super Regional on Friday night in a 6-5 defeat to No. 11 LSU.

TALLAHASSEE, FL - Senior Jessie Warren climbed further up the NCAA all-time home run and RBI record book, but the Seminoles' seventh-inning rally came up just short on Friday night as No. 6 Florida State (50-11) dropped game one of the NCAA Tallahassee Super Regional to No. 11 LSU (45-15) by a score of 6-5.

Warren hit a three-run shot to center with two outs in the bottom of the seventh, but LSU's Carley Hoover came in to end the game with a strikeout for her second save of the season. Warren is now tied for 10th all-time in NCAA history with 79 career home runs, while her four RBI on the day increased her career total to 265, which ranks 11th in NCAA history.

"Obviously not the outcome you want in game one, but love the fight and there we were in the later innings of the ballgame to make some things happen," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "I think that (LSU's Allie) Walljasper pitched a pretty good ballgame early on and made some adjustments later. Now it is about a double-dipper tomorrow. Lay it all out there. We've been there before and pretty excited about the opportunity to get after two games tomorrow."

After both teams were retired in order in the first inning, LSU opened the top of the second inning with a solo home run by Amanda Doyle to take an early 1-0 lead. Michaela Schlattman hit a one-out double later in the inning, but FSU starting pitcher Kylee Hanson ended the threat with a pair of strikeouts.

The Tigers got a baserunner in the third inning on a one-out single by Aliyah Andrews. After another Hanson strikeout, Anna Shelnutt's throw to Sydney Sherrill was in time to catch Andrews on a stolen base attempt to end the inning. Andrews entered the game 42-for-43 on stolen bases and had not been retired on an attempt since February 9.

Florida State got a single in the third inning from Cassidy Davis and a walk by Sherrill in the fourth inning, but neither got beyond first base as the game remained 1-0 LSU.

LSU scored four runs, including three unearned runs, in the top of the fifth as Schlattman hit the first pitch of the fifth inning over the wall in left center for her eighth home run of the season. Shelbi Sunseri followed with a double to center, ending the day for FSU's Hanson as Davis took over in the circle.

An FSU fielding error and a walk loaded the bases with one out in the inning. Cali Harrod handled a groundball to short and threw home for out number two, but a walk by Emily Griggs and a two-run double by Doyle pushed the LSU lead to 5-0, heading to the bottom of the fifth.

Harrod opened the Seminole half of the fifth with a single to left center and Dani Morgan drove her in with an RBI double to right center. An infield single by pinch hitter Leslie Farris put runners on the corners and Jessie Warren made it a 5-2 game after five innings with a sacrifice fly to center.

LSU added to its lead in the seventh with a double by Becca Schulte and an RBI single Taryn Antoine for a 6-2 lead heading to the bottom of the seventh inning.

The first two FSU batters were retired on a strikeout and a groundout before Davis extended the game with a walk and was pinch run for by Deja Bush. Farris hit another infield single to put runners on the corners with two outs, setting the stage for Warren's home run. After LSU made a pitching change to bring in Hoover, she struck out Carsyn Gordon to end the game.

Hanson (27-5) took the loss after giving up three runs, two earned on five hits over 4.0 innings with four strikeouts and zero walks. Davis tossed 3.0 innings of relief in her second-longest appearance of the season and allowed three runs, one earned, with four hits and two walks.

Back To OKC! Florida State Takes Two Over LSU To Advance To WCWS!
The No. 6 Seminoles win both games of the doubleheader against No. 11 LSU to advance to the Women's College World Series for the 10th time in school history.

TALLAHASSEE, FL - Between arriving at JoAnne Graf Field at 3:00 p.m. on Saturday on the verge of elimination and Carsyn Gordon catching the final out at first base at 12:33 a.m. on Sunday, there were more than nine hours of fight and determination from the Seminoles as No. 6 Florida State (52-11) defeated No. 11 LSU (45-17) in both games of a doubleheader to win the 2018 NCAA Tallahassee Super Regional and advance to its 10th Women's College World Series in program history.

The Noles topped the Tigers by a score of 8-5 in 11 innings in the first game of the day which spanned over five hours and included a 78-minute weather delay. FSU followed it up with a 3-1 victory over LSU in the wee hours of the morning at JoAnne Graf Field, where many of the 1,431 in attendance remained to celebrate with the home team.

Jessie Warren carried the Seminole offense in both games as the senior hit a home run in each game and drove in four RBI on the night. She moved into ninth place in NCAA history with 269 career RBI and now is in sole possession for 10th place in the NCAA with 81 career home runs. She also scored her 223rd career run to tie Shamalene Wilson (1993-96) for the Florida State record.

"First of all, congratulations to LSU on an amazing season," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "That was a battle today. (Allie) Walljasper and (Carley) Hoover are two amazing pitchers and it is always an honor to play a team like that, that plays the game hard and to the very end.

"On our side, we talked about how today is the second round of a boxing match. There are going to be punches thrown and we're going to take some and they are going to give some and we'll give some and it will go back and forth, and the third round will be the knockout round. I am so proud of the girls to buy in to it and just stay in and battle and battle and battle. We had two amazing efforts by our pitchers today and it was fun to see Jessie Warren grow up in front of our eyes into an amazing and mature ballplayer."

NCAA Super Regional Game Two: No. 6 Florida State 8, No. 11 LSU 5 (11 Innings)
Florida State had runners in scoring position in each of the first two innings, but could not scratch a run across. Warren reached on a dropped third strike to lead off the top of the first and stole second, but was left on base after a pair of line outs. Zoe Casas lined the first pitch of the FSU second inning off the third base bag for a double into the left field corner and moved up to third on a wild pitch. The next three Seminoles were retired in order to keep the game knotted at 0-0.

LSU opened the scoring in the bottom of the second as the Tigers started the inning with a single by Amanda Doyle followed by Shemiah Sanchez getting hit by a pitch. A one-out RBI single by Shelbi Sunseri put LSU up 1-0. FSU starting pitcher Meghan King retired the next two batters on a pop out and a strikeout to end the inning.

The Seminoles battled back with four runs in the top of the third inning to take a 4-1 lead. Morgan Klaevemann opened the inning with a walk and Warren crushed career home run No. 80 over the left field wall to put FSU in front, 2-1. Carsyn Gordon followed with a walk on four pitches, stole second and moved to third on a groundout.

Anna Shelnutt placed a perfect squeeze bunt with one out and Gordon slid under the tag at the plate to make it 3-1. Casas grounded a ball toward LSU 2B Becca Schulte and the fielder tried to draw contact on Shelnutt running to second instead of fielding the ball, allowing Casas to reach on a single. The Seminole runners moved up to second and third on a wild pitch by LSU starting pitcher Carley Hoover, and Cali Harrod drove in her 29th RBI of the season with a sacrifice fly to left.

LSU started their half of the third with a single by Aliyah Andrews and a double from Taryn Antoine. King left them both stranded after retiring the next three hitters on a groundout, a strikeout and a fly out.

The Seminoles scored an unearned run in the top of the fifth to extend their lead to 5-1. Sydney Sherrill drew a one-out walk and an infield single from Shelnutt put runners on first and second. A fly out moved Sherrill to third with two outs and LSU nearly got out of the inning as Hoover forced Harrod to pop up in foul ground by third base, but LSU 3B Sanchez thought that the catcher was calling her off and she let the ball drop. Harrod's at bat continued and she hit an RBI infield single to first base for a 5-1 FSU lead heading to the bottom of the fifth.

LSU tied the game at 5-5 with a grand slam by Sanchez in the bottom of the fifth inning. Andrews singled to lead off the inning and walks to Emily Griggs and Doyle allowed Sanchez to square the game with her seventh HR of the season.

The Seminoles managed to get the leadoff batter on base via walks by Gordon in the seventh and Klaevemann in the ninth, but couldn't move them around.

King settled in and retired 14 for 15 LSU hitters, including six strikeouts, as the game headed into the tenth inning. Florida State managed to load the bases with two outs on a hit-by-pitch to Casas, a walk by Harrod and an LSU error off the bat of Cassidy Davis, but after a pop out to short the game remained tied at 5-5.

LSU threatened in the bottom of the tenth as a walk to Griggs and an FSU error put Tiger runners on first and second with two outs, but King ended the inning with her 11th strikeout of the game.

Gordon gave the Seminoles a 6-5 lead with a solo home run to left with one out in the top of the 11th. Sherrill followed with a single through the right side and Shelnutt crushed a two-run HR to Spirit Way beyond the wall in left for an 8-5 FSU advantage.

LSU managed a leadoff single in the bottom of the 11th, but King set down the next three hitters to force game three.

King (22-6) set career highs in strikeouts (12) and innings pitched (11.0) and allowed five runs on eight hits with four walks in the complete-game victory.

NCAA Super Regional Game 3: No. 6 Florida State 3, No. 11 LSU 1
LSU led off game three with a bunt single by Andrews, but an amazing defensive play by Warren sent her back to the dugout on a double play. Antoine tried to place a sacrifice bunt, but she it popped up and the senior third baseman made a diving catch in foul ground and threw to Sherrill at first for the double play. FSU starting pitcher Kylee Hanson ended the inning with a fly out to center.

Warren worked her magic again in game three, giving the Seminoles a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the third with a two-run home run to left center. Davis opened the inning with a walk and was pinch-run for by Deja Bush. Warren launched her second HR of the day to put FSU in front.

The inning continued with a walk by Gordon and a double by Sherrill, her 27th of the season which moved her into a tie for second in ACC history and tied for fourth in NCAA single-season history. Shelnutt hit a sacrifice fly to center to score Gordon and make it 3-0 Seminoles after three innings.

The Tigers got a run back in the top of the fifth as a single by Sanchez and a double by Sunseri put runners on second and third with one out. An RBI groundout by Amber Serrett cut the Seminole lead to 3-1, and Hanson retired the next hitter on a groundout to end the inning.

LSU started the top of the seventh inning with an infield single, but a ground ball to Sherrill at second base started a 4-6-3 double play to bring up the final chance for the Tigers. Hanson handled a ball back to the circle and tossed to first to end the game and send the Seminoles to the WCWS.

Hanson improved to 28-5 on the season and scattered five hits and allowed one run and one walk with four strikeouts in the complete game win.

No. 6 Seminoles Fall, 7-4, to No. 3 UCLA In Game One Of 2018 WCWS.
Six runs allowed in the sixth, including five with two outs, doom Florida State against UCLA on Thursday night.

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. - Single-season and career records for the school and conference were matched or set throughout the night for the Seminoles, but the individual game on Thursday night was not as celebratory as No. 6 Florida State (52-12) dropped the first game of the 2018 Women's College World Series by a score of 7-4 to No. 3 UCLA (57-5).

The Bruins scored six runs in the bottom of the sixth, including five runs with two outs, to earn the come-from-behind win. It is the eighth time that the Noles have lost the first game of the WCWS and FSU will now play No. 7 Georgia (48-12) in an elimination game.

"I don't know if you could script it any better for our hitters to come out and score some runs off one of the best pitchers in the country," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "Garcia was slinging it tonight and we got after her. It was just one of those things. Meghan did a good job and it was my decision to bring Kylee in, and Kyle got us out of the inning and that was good stuff too. Then UCLA kind of went to another level with their swings and got after some miscues on our part and made a big inning for themselves."

UCLA threatened in the bottom of the first inning, loading the bases with two outs on singles by Kylee Perez and Bubba Nickles and a walk to Rachel Garcia, but FSU starting pitcher Meghan King got out of the jam with a strikeout to keep the game tied at 0-0.

Garcia, UCLA starting pitcher and 2018 USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Year, limited the Seminole offense and recorded five strikeouts through the first two innings. Cassidy Davis led off the FSU third inning with a walk and was pinch-run for by Deja Bush. An intentional walk to Jessie Warren put runners on first and second with one out, but the inning ended on a strikeout by Carsyn Gordon and Bush getting caught stealing at third.

The Seminoles opened the scoring in the top of the fifth inning to take a 4-0 lead. Cali Harrod led off with a walk and a stolen base along with a UCLA throwing error allowed her to move to third on the play. Dani Morgan recorded FSU's first hit of the game, knocking an RBI single to center to score Harrod.

Another intentional walk to Warren and a two-out walk to Gordon loaded the bases and Sydney Sherrill emptied them with a double into the left field corner to put the Noles on top 4-0. It was Sherrill's 28th double of the season, which tied the ACC record set by Emilee Koerner (Notre Dame - 2014) and is tied for second in NCAA history, trailing only Fresno State's Nina Lindenberg, who hit 29 doubles in 1996.

Warren's run scored on the play was also significant as it was her 224th career run scored, surpassing Shamalene Wilson (1993-96) for the FSU record in the category.

King retired 10 of 11 batters before UCLA got each of its first two hitters on base in the bottom of the fifth on an FSU throwing error and a single by Kinsley Washington. An RBI single by Briana Perez brought in a run for UCLA and Florida State made a pitching change to bring in Kylee Hanson to replace King with two outs in the inning. The redshirt senior struck out Garcia to end the inning.

King gave up one unearned run over 4.2 innings, scattered five hits and one walk and recorded six strikeouts and did not factor in the decision.

Korina Rosario led off the Seminole sixth inning with a double to center, marking FSU's 105th double of the season, which extended FSU's school record in the category and tied Liberty for the most doubles hit in the NCAA this season. The Noles put runners on the corners after Dani Morgan reached on a dropped third strike, but a pair of strikeouts left them both stranded on base.

UCLA loaded the bases in the sixth with one out on a walk and a pair of singles and cut the lead to 4-2 with a sacrifice fly to center by Julie Rodriguez. Kylee Perez put the Bruins in front with a two-out, three-run home run to right center and an RBI triple later in the inning by Aaliyah Jordan made it a 6-4 UCLA lead.

Davis entered to pitch for the Seminoles and an FSU throwing error allowed another Bruin run to score before a fly out to right ended the inning.

Warren tried to start seventh inning rally for the Seminoles with a single to left, but the next three FSU hitters were retired to end the game.

Hanson (28-6) took the loss and surrendered six runs, five earned on five hits with one walk and one strikeout.

Seminoles Top Georgia To Advance In 2018 WCWS.
No. 6 Florida State defeats No. 7 Georgia on Saturday to continue in the 2018 Women’s College World Series.

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. — Scoring in four of their six innings at the plate, the Seminoles staved off elimination on Saturday afternoon as No. 6 Florida State (53-12) earned a 7-2 win over No. 7 Georgia (48-13) to continue in the 2018 Women’s College World Series.

The victory moves the Noles further down the bracket and they will face No. 1 Oregon later tonight at 9:30 p.m. ET. The winner of the FSU-UO game will advance to Sunday’s NCAA Semifinals against No. 3 UCLA.

“We knew today was going to be a battle,” said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. “There were going to be punches from both sides and then also dealing with the heat and the sun. Really proud of Meghan and how she worked the different hitters and kept them off balance. Offensively, I liked our patient approach and how we were able to work some counts and take advantage of different situations. Now, it is time to get back to the hotel, get some food, get some rest and get ready for Oregon later tonight.”

After FSU starting pitcher Meghan King retired Georgia in order in the top of the first, the Bulldogs threatened in the second inning, getting a pair of runners on with one out with a single by Alysen Febrey and a walk to Mahlena O’Neal. King got out of the inning with a strikeout and a groundout.

The Seminoles opened the scoring in the bottom of the second inning as Anna Shelnutt led off with a walk and moved to second on a sacrifice bunt by Dani Morgan. Zoe Casas put Florida State up 1-0 with a two-out RBI double to center, FSU’s 106th double of the season, which is the most doubles hit in the NCAA this season.

Georgia pushed a runner to second with one out in the third inning, but a line drive to Elizabeth Mason in right started an inning-ending double play as the runner did not return to tag.

The Bulldogs again got a pair of runners on in the fourth inning on a walk by Alyssa DiCarlo and a single by Febrey, but King kept UGA off the scoreboard with a groundout and a pop out to end the inning.

Florida State brought in three more in the bottom of the fourth to extend its lead to 4-0. Shelnutt drew her second walk of the game to start the inning and was pinch-run for by Deja Bush. Bush quickly stole second and moved to third on a single by Morgan. Morgan stole second and a walk by Cali Harrod loaded the bases with nobody out.

Casas came through again for the Noles, chopping a two-run single up the middle to make it 3-0 Seminoles. It tied a season high for Casas with three RBI. The inning continued and Casas stole second to move into scoring position and Elizabeth Mason hit a sacrifice fly to right for a 4-0 lead. It marked Mason’s fifth sacrifice fly of the season, which is tied for 15th in the NCAA this season.

Georgia scored two unearned runs in the top of the fifth to cut FSU’s lead to 4-2. A two-out walk to Cortni Emanuel and a Seminole fielding error gave Justice Milz the chance to bring in two runs with a triple to right. A walk to DiCarlo put runners on the corners, but King got the Seminoles out of the inning with a fly out to left.

Florida State fought back with two runs in the bottom of fifth to push the advantage back out to 6-2. Consecutive one-out singles by Sydney Sherrill and Shelnutt put Seminole runners on second and third and Morgan brought them both in on a two-RBI single to right field for her third RBI of the 2018 WCWS.

The Seminoles added another run in the sixth for the 7-2 final score. Walks by Mason and Carsyn Gordon, along with a single by Jessie Warren loaded the bases and a two-out walk by Shelnutt scored Mason. It was Shelnutt’s third walk of the game, which set a career high.

Georgia hit a leadoff single in the seventh, but King retired the next three batters to close out the complete-game victory and improve to 23-6. The redshirt junior gave up two runs, zero earned, and scattered five hits and four walks while recording four strikeouts in the win.

FSU Advances To NCAA Semifinals With 4-1 Win Over No. 1 Oregon.
The No. 6 Seminoles are one of the final four teams competing for an NCAA National Championship for the second time in the last three seasons.

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. - Between a sacrifice fly on March 4 and a pair of RBIs on June 2, Elizabeth Mason has driven the game-winning run for the Seminoles in each of the last two games against the Ducks as No. 6 Florida State (54-12) defeated No. 1 Oregon (53-10) on Saturday night in an elimination game at the 2018 Women's College World Series.

It is the second year in a row that FSU earned a win over the No. 1 team as the Seminoles took down No. 1 Florida by a score of 3-1 in 11 innings on May 3, 2017 in Tallahassee, Fla.

The Noles advance to Sunday's NCAA semifinals against No. 3 UCLA in a rematch of Thursday's WCWS opener that saw the Bruins earn a 7-4 come-from-behind win. It is the second time in the last three seasons that the Seminoles are one of the final four teams competing for an NCAA National Championship.

All 12 of Florida State's losses this year are to 12 different teams as no team has beat the Seminoles twice in 2018. The Noles have won at least one game against every team it has played multiple times this season.

"First, I'd like to congratulate Oregon for an amazing season," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "It was a well-fought game and an honor to play them. As for us, Kylee transferred here for this opportunity. Sometimes when you get what you wish for, you get a lump in your throat, but once she settles in, she's outstanding. The whole team was relaxed and knew what was coming today from her. Proud of the squad behind her today."

After each side was retired in order in the first inning, Oregon earned the first baserunner on a one-out single by Haley Cruse in the bottom of the second. Lauren Burke followed with a single to center, but FSU starting pitcher Kylee Hanson left them both stranded after recording a strikeout and inducing a groundout to end the inning.

The Seminoles opened the scoring the in top of the third inning as Cali Harrod led off with a walk and quickly stole second. Elizabeth Mason lined an RBI double into left center to put the Seminoles up 1-0. It was the 107th double of the season for Florida State, which tied Notre Dame (2014) for the ACC single-season record.

It was also the first base hit for the Seminoles against the Oregon pitching staff in 15.1 innings, dating back to March 2, 2018. Florida State earned a 2-1 win against the Ducks on March 4, despite Megan Kleist pitching a no-hitter, scoring its pair of runs on a fielder's choice and a sacrifice fly.

Anna Shelnutt produced for the Seminoles on both sides of the ball as her diving catch in foul ground on a bunt attempt ended the Oregon half of the third inning. The sophomore turned around and led off the top of the fourth with a single up the middle. However, an Oregon double play and a pop out ended the inning.

Oregon pushed a base runner to second base in the bottom of the fourth on a single by Shannon Rhodes and her 14th stolen base of the season. Hanson left her stranded with her fourth strikeout of the game.

FSU added another run in the fifth inning on another RBI base hit by Mason. Harrod led off with a single to left and Morgan Klaevemann followed with a bunt single and Harrod dashed all the way to third on the play. Mason followed with a single through the left side to push the Seminole lead to 2-0. Jessie Warren lined out to shortstop and a throwing error allowed the runners to move up to second and third with one out, but a strikeout and a groundout left them both on base.

Shelnutt began the Seminole sixth inning with a walk and was pinch-run for by Deja Bush. Dani Morgan put down a sacrifice bunt, but the ball was mishandled by the Oregon first baseman, allowing both runners to advance safely. Zoe Casas nearly hit a three-run home run to right, but it bounced off the top of the wall for an RBI single, pushing the Seminole lead to 3-0.

Oregon brought in an unearned run in the bottom of the sixth inning to cut the FSU lead to 3-1. A one-out FSU error allowed Cruse to hit a two-out double to left center, just past the diving glove of Morgan in left to score the first run of the game for the Ducks. Hanson got out of the inning with a pop out to short.

Sydney Sherrill launched a solo home run to right in the top of the seventh, her 11th HR of the season, to extend the FSU advantage to 4-1.

Oregon opened the seventh with a walk by DJ Sanders and after a fly out to center and a walk to pinch-hitter Mary Iakopo, Meghan King entered the circle to pitch for the Seminoles, replacing Hanson. King retired both of the batters she faced on a fly out and a strikeout to earn her third save of the season and seal the 4-1 win.

Hanson improved to 29-6 on the season with the win, tossing 6.1 innings and allowing one unearned run with two walks and four strikeouts.

Seminoles Top UCLA, 3-1, To Force Decisive WCWS Game.
No. 6 Florida State earns come-from-behind win over No. 3 UCLA, forcing a final game between the Noles and Bruins.

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. - Winning the 12th time this season when the opponent scores first, a three-run home run in the sixth inning by Elizabeth Mason lifted No. 6 Florida State (55-12) to a 3-1 victory over No. 3 UCLA (58-6) on Sunday in the 2018 Women's College World Series. The Noles have now won five consecutive elimination games in the 2018 NCAA postseason.

The win forces a winner-take-all game between the Seminoles and the Bruins with a spot in the 2018 WCWS Championship Series on the line, where No. 5 Washington awaits after the Huskies defeated Oklahoma, 3-0 earlier today.

Florida State put a pair of runners on in the bottom of the first inning on a single to left by Carsyn Gordon and a walk by Sydney Sherrill, but a pair of strikeouts left them both stranded to end the inning.

A two-out walk to UCLA's Taylor Pack and a single by Brianna Tautalafua had Bruins on first and second in the top of the second inning, but FSU starting pitcher Meghan King ended the inning with a strikeout, her fourth of the game.

Morgan Klaevemann lined a two-out double into the left field corner in the bottom of the second inning for the 108th double of the season for Florida State. It set an ACC single-season record, surpassing Notre Dame's total of 107 in 2014.

UCLA scored an unearned run in the top of the third inning to take a 1-0 lead. A leadoff single and an FSU throwing error put Bruins runners on second and third with nobody out in the inning. Rachel Garcia hit an RBI single to right, her first hit of the 2018 WCWS, to bring in the first run of the game. King ended the inning with a pair of groundouts.

Dani Morgan led off the FSU fourth inning with a bunt single and a single to center by Zoe Casas put Seminoles on second and third with nobody out in the inning. UCLA's Garcia struck out the side to leave them stranded and keep the Bruins in front, 1-0, after four complete innings.

King had retired eight of nine batters before UCLA led off the top of the sixth inning with a single through the right side by Bubba Nickles. Following King's eighth strikeout of the game, Sherrill ended the inning with a 4-3 double play. It marked FSU's 31st double play of the season, which ranks seventh in the NCAA this season.

Morgan hit the first pitch of the Seminole sixth inning to deep center and UCLA's Nickles robbed her of a home run for the first out of the inning. Following a single by Casas and Cali Harrod getting hit by a pitch, Elizabeth Mason launched a home run to center to put the Seminoles in front 3-1.

UCLA got a pair of runners on in the seventh inning on a one-out single and a two-out walk, but Gordon tracked down a pop up in foul ground to end the game.

King improved to 24-6 in the complete-game victory, scattering seven hits, one unearned run with two walks and 10 strikeouts.

Florida State Advances To WCWS Championship Series!
The Seminoles earn a 12-6 win over No. 3 UCLA to reach the WCWS Championship Series for the first time in school history.

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. - Crushing four home runs and slugging seven of their 10 hits for extra bases, the Seminoles won their sixth elimination game of the 2018 NCAA postseason as No. 6 Florida State (56-12) earned a 12-6 win over No. 3 UCLA (58-7) to advance to the WCWS Championship Series for the first time in school history.

Over the span of FSU's five games of the 2018 WCWS, the Seminoles have hit 14 extra-base hits with eight doubles and six home runs, spread among nine different players and eight different spots in the Florida State will play No. 5 Washington (52-8) in the best-of-three Championship Series that will begin on Monday, June 4 at 7:00 p.m. ET. Game two will be on June 5 at 8:00 p.m. ET, and the third game (if necessary) will start at 8:30 p.m. ET on June 6. All three games will be broadcast nationally on ESPN.

The six elimination game wins for the Seminoles in 2018 ties an NCAA postseason record, matching the performance of UCLA in 1985 and 1997.

"Outstanding fight out of the team today," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "Trusting in all of our core values that we create the foundation of in the fall and seeing that come out today was amazing. The competition on the field was very high level and we were taking punches and throwing punches all day long. Being committed to the next play the next pitch and fighting for each other as a family. We had played UCLA on Thursday, so that helped us to be smart and aggressive in our opportunities today and I am so thrilled for this team and this program. Excited about the next step with Washington."

Jessie Warren led off the top of the first with a single up the middle and Sydney Sherrill nearly matched the NCAA single-season doubles record with a ball toward right center, but UCLA's Bubba Nickles made a diving catch for the second out of the inning. Anna Shelnutt followed with a single to right, but UCLA's Rachel Garcia recorded a strikeout to end the inning.

UCLA made a pitching change to start the second inning, bringing in Selina Ta'amilo to relieve Garcia and Cali Harrod launched a one-out solo home run to left field to put the Seminoles up 1-0. The inning continued with a double by Morgan Klaevemann and UCLA re-entered Garcia. Elizabeth Mason lined a ground ball to third and a UCLA error kicked the ball into center, allowing Klaevemann to score from second to extend the lead to 2-0 FSU.

Warren followed with a two-run home run to center, prompting another pitching change from UCLA to bring in Holly Azevedo. It was Warren's 82nd career home run, which moved her into a tie with Michigan's Sierra Romero (2012-15) for ninth in NCAA history. The pair of RBIs increased her career total to 271, passing Auburn's Kasey Cooper (2014-17) for eighth-most in the history of NCAA softball.

The Bruins answered back with a two-out, two-run home run by Taylor Pack in the bottom of the second to cut the lead to 4-2. It marked the first earned runs allowed by the Seminole pitching staff in 23.0 innings, dating back to May 31 against UCLA.

Sherrill hit her second HR of the 2018 WCWS in the top of the fourth inning, a three-run HR to break the game open for a 7-2 Seminole lead. Warren hit a two-out single to center and a walk to Carsyn Gordon set the stage for Sherrill to hit her 12th home run of the season to right center.

UCLA battled back in the bottom of the fourth getting two more runs on a two-out, two-run single by Pack to make it a 7-4 lead for the Seminoles.

The Seminoles broke out for five runs in the top of the fifth, as Morgan started the inning by reaching on a UCLA error and quickly stealing second. An RBI double by Zoe Casas brought her in to score and Korina Rosario entered to pinch run at second. A groundout moved Rosario to third, and she scored on an RBI squeeze bunt by Klaevemann.

An intentional walk to Warren with two outs allowed Gordon to make it a 12-4 game with a three-run home run to left.

The Bruins avoided the run-rule with a solo home run in the bottom of the fifth by Briana Perez, cutting the Seminole lead to 12-5. After a UCLA single, Cassidy Davis entered to pitch for the Seminoles to replace Kylee Hanson in the circle. Davis handled a groundball and tossed to Harrod at second to begin an inning-ending double play.

UCLA added another run on a solo HR by Nickles in the bottom of the sixth. Davis allowed a pair of one-out singles later in the inning, but another double play on a ground ball to Warren at third ended the inning.

Meghan King pitched the seventh for the Seminoles and retired all three batters she faced to clinch the 12-6 victory.

Hanson (30-4) picked up the win, allowing eight hits and five runs over 4.1 innings with zero walks and two strikeouts. Davis scattered three hits and gave up one run in her 1.2 innings of relief.

One Win Away! The Seminoles Shutout Washington To Open WCWS Championship Series!
No. 6 Florida State takes game one against No. 5 Washington with a 1-0 shutout to get one win away from an NCAA National Championship.

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. - One pitch mentality. It has been the Florida State motto all season long and one pitch proved to be the difference in game one of the 2018 WCWS Championship series as sophomore Anna Shelnutt launched a 3-1 pitch in the top of the sixth inning into the seats beyond the wall in left center to carry No. 6 Florida State (57-12) to a 1-0 victory over No. 5 Washington (52-9) on Monday night. It is the fourth home run by Shelnutt in the 2018 postseason and eight of her 11 career home runs have all come in the ACC or NCAA Tournaments.

The win moves the Seminoles one step away from the 2018 NCAA National Championship and FSU and UW will play game two of the best-of-three Championship Series on Tuesday at 8:00 p.m. ET.

"When Sydney Broderick went down at Oregon last year, Anna came in and was in big moments for us," said FSU head coach Lonni Alameda. "She hit some home runs at the ACC Tournament and Regionals and that's where her 'Postseason Anna' nickname comes from. Then this season, she's catching every day and hitting everyday and grinding out the entire season, where teams are scouting you and know more about you and that was a challenge. But she's learned to endure that. Anna is a tremendous catcher and for her to come in and put up good at bats for her team after everything she does behind the plate, it is outstanding."

FSU starting pitcher Meghan King and UW's Gabbie Plain combined for a strong start in the circle as the first hit by either team came from FSU's Morgan Klaevemann as the senior lined a single to left to lead off the third inning. She quickly stole second and moved to third with nobody out on a Washington throwing error, but a pair of pop outs and a strikeout left her stranded on base.

Washington loaded the bases with one out in the bottom of the third on singles by Trysten Melhart and Taylor Van Zee, along with Sis Bates getting hit by a pitch. King helped the Seminoles escape the jam with a pair of strikeouts to end the inning.

Anna Shelnutt drew a one-out walk in the FSU fourth inning and was pinch-ran for by Deja Bush. Bush stole second on the first pitch to Dani Morgan and increased FSU's season total to 148, which is the third-most in school history. Walks to Morgan and Cali Harrod loaded the bases with two outs, but a groundout to short ended the inning.

Jessie Warren lined a double to left center with one out in the fifth inning and moved up to third on a groundout, but a fly out to left kept the game scoreless heading to the bottom of the fifth.

The Huskies opened their half of the fifth with an infield single by Kelly Burdick and she moved to second on a stolen base and advanced to third with two outs on a sacrifice bunt. Sydney Sherrill handled a ground ball to second to end the inning.

Shelnutt put the Seminoles in front with a solo home run to left center, her sixth home run of the year and third HR of the postseason. With the home run, all nine spots in the FSU batting order have hit at least one extra-base hit during the 2018 WCWS. Overall, the Noles have hit 10 doubles and seven home runs in their six games at the Women's College World Series.

Morgan continued the inning and stole second for her sixth stolen base of the 2018 WCWS to set a tournament record, passing Alabama's Brittany Rogers who has five SBs in 2009.

Warren lined a two-out double to left in the top of the seventh for her 51st double of her career, tying Alex Powers (2014-17) for the FSU record. It was the 113th double of the season for the Seminoles, moving FSU into a tie for 10th in NCAA single-season history (LSU, 1998).

Washington opened the seventh inning with a single by Taryn Atlee, but an amazing diving catch by Warren on a bunt attempt by Melhart started a double play to bring up the last chance for the Huskies. A single by Kelly Burdick extended the game, but a groundout to the circle secured the 1-0 Seminole victory.

King retired 14 of the final 17 batters she faced in the complete-game shutout. The redshirt junior improved to 25-6 on the season and gave up five hits and two walks and recorded six strikeouts. She has not allowed an earned run in all 27.1 innings of work at the 2018 WCWS and has not given up an ER in 34.0 total innings, dating back to the fifth inning against LSU on May 26, as she has lowered her ERA to 1.17 on the season.

Florida State Wins 2018 National Championship!

By Ariya Massoudi

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. - National Champion.

For a storied program that had reached the Women's College World Series nine times before, had three different National Players of the Year and was led by NFCA Hall of Fame Coach JoAnne Graf who was the first in NCAA history to win 1,400 games, the last accomplishment was finally secured on Tuesday night as Florida State earned the 2018 NCAA National Championship with a 8-3 win over Washington.

The Seminoles (58-12) received a gutsy performance from Meghan King in the circle and weathered an early deficit in the come-from-behind victory over the Huskies (52-10).

On the night, the lefty went the full seven innings, giving up five hits and three runs (one earned). The redshirt junior gave walked none and struck out four.

The Seminoles are just the third team in NCAA history to lose their first game of the WCWS and come all the way back through the loser's bracket to win the title, joining Texas A&M (1983) and UCLA (2003). The 12 losses for Florida State are tied for the third most from a national champion in NCAA history and the most since Florida's 55-12 record in 2014.

It is the 16th National Championship for Florida State, the third for softball and the first in the fastpitch era. Softball's previous AIAW Championships in 1981 and 1982, along with the 2018 NCAA title matches Football (1993, 1999, 2013) for the most from any sport in school history. Men's Outdoor Track and Field (2006, 2008), Men's Volleyball (1955, 1957) and Men's Gymnastics (1951, 1952) each have two titles, while Women's Soccer (2014), Women's Indoor Track and Field (1985), Women's Outdoor Track and Field (1984) and Women's Golf (1981) each have one National Championship.

An energetic Huskies' team scratched three runs across in the top of the first before the Seminoles even came to the plate. After a leadoff single by Taylor Van Zee, a passed ball moved her to second. Then, a sacrifice bunt attempt was thrown away by Jessie Warren to the bag at first, allowing Van Zee to score to make it 1-0, Washington. Later in the inning, a tough pop fly into shallow center field fell between Morgan Klaevemann and Sydney Sherrill allowing another run to come across. The final Washington run of the inning came on an RBI groundout by Taryn Atlee.

Florida State responded in a big way with their first opportunity of the game as Warren smashed a single to left field to get things started for the Noles. After a pair of strikeouts, "Post-season Anna" stepped to the plate a mashed a two-run homer to straight center field, cutting the Huskies lead to 3-2.

The momentum continued for the Noles in the second as Zoe Casas started the frame off with a double to left-center that was followed by a Cali Harrod walk. Two batters later, Elizabeth Mason gave the Noles their first lead of the game with a hard single to right-center that bounced off the glove of the Husky right fielder and trickled to the wall. This allowed both Harrod and Casas to race around the bases and score giving the Noles a 4-3 advantage. A Warren RBI single through the left side extended the lead to 5-3 in the three-run inning.

In the third inning, Sherrill doubled to left-center, but was stranded at second after a flyout and a pair of strikeouts. For the freshman out of Moore, Okla. it marked her 29th double of the 2018 campaign, setting a new ACC record and tying the NCAA single-season mark.

Trouble brewed for the Noles in the Washington fourth inning as the Huskies loaded the bases with a pair of singles and an error on King with two outs. But the lefty, who's been so strong for FSU this post-season, induced a groundout to end the inning.

FSU continued its offensive onslaught in the fourth thanks to a pair of home runs.

After Klaevemann was hit by a pitch with one out, she stole second and advanced to third on a throwing error. Mason then broke the game wide open as she laced a 2-2 offering over the wall in center, extending FSU's lead to 7-3. Warren followed with a blast of her own, a no-doubt moonshot to center that gave her 13 total hits in the Women's College World Series, tying the record for most hits in a single tournament.

That's all the runs the Seminoles would need as King slammed the door shut on the Huskies the rest of the way, the final play a groundout that clinched the school's first NCAA National Championship.
