Lead Story

The Seminoles got off to a 2-0 start in conference play with a doubleheader sweep of Georgia Tech. Wins came by scores of 8-1 and 7-3.
A 5-run sixth inning blew the first game open for FSU. Jahni Kerr and Devyn Flaherty each homered in the contest while Dani Morgan was 2-for-3 with four RBIs.
In the second game, it was a 4-run fifth that opened things up. Kalei Harding was 4-for-4 with three RBIs in the victory. Elizabeth Mason had a pair of doubles and plated a pair of runs.
