Happy hump day, Florida State fans. As your week starts to head downhill, keep it here for the latest in FSU athletics. The news and notes section of this post may be updated throughout the day.

Lead Story

For the second week in a row, one Florida State softball senior earned national honors while the Seminoles swept the ACC weekly honors.

FSU senior shortstop Cali Harrod was named both the ACC Player of the Week and the NFCA National Player of the Week after going 10-for-14 in six games with five extra base hits, including two home runs, eight RBIs and 12 runs scored. It is the first time in Harrod’s career that she has been named ACC Player of the Week. Outfielder Zoe Casas was named ACC Player of the Week and USA Softball National Player of the Week last week.

Also honored by the conference was redshirt senior Meghan King as the ACC Pitcher of the Week for the second time this season and seventh time in her career. King went 3-0 with a save while allowing just one earned run in 11.1 innings. King also struck out 17 batters.
