It’s Monday, Florida State fans. As you begin a new work week or just a new day, keep it here for the latest in FSU athletics. The news and notes section of this post will be updated throughout the day.

Lead Story

After two rounds at the ACC Women’s Golf Tournament, only one team sits higher than Florida State.

The Seminoles wrapped up Sunday in second place in the ACC Tournament behind only Duke. Through two rounds, FSU is +4, which is 17 strokes back of leader Duke, which sits at -13. Making that difference up is a tall task, but the Seminoles will try to hold off third-place Clemson, which sits at +7.

On the individual side, FSU’s Amanda Doherty is in third place at -5. That’s two strokes back of leader Leona Maguire and one stroke back of second-place Jaravee Boonchant — both of Duke. Florida State’s Morgane Metraux is in fourth-place tie at -2.
