Seminole Sunday Summary: FSU Hoops Makes Statement vs. Virginia, Tops Pitt
Florida State men’s basketball not only stayed in the race for a second straight ACC regular season title this week, but may have moved to the front of the line.
The 16th-ranked Seminoles made a statement on Monday night with a 81-60 romp over No. 7 Virginia. FSU used an early 14-0 run to seize control.
The Cavaliers trailed by 20 at halftime before getting as close as eight in the second half. FSU responded to that with a 17-0 run to put the contest away.
The Seminoles shot 50% from the field and a remarkable 13-for-24 from deep while committing just five turnovers. M.J. Walker paced FSU with 17 points and six rebounds. RaiQuan Gray added 15 points in the victory.
In a contest rescheduled midway through the week, FSU extended its winning streak to three on Saturday with a 79-72 win at Pittsburgh. The Seminoles led most of the way, but the Panthers stayed within striking distance.
Pittsburgh looked to have drawn within three with less than a minute to play, but replay review determined that Xavier Johnson’s foot was on the 3-point line. FSU made enough free throws the rest of the way to seal the victory.
FSU held Pittsburgh to 38% shooting and just 4-for-17 from deep. Gray led the Seminoles with 16 points to go with eight rebounds.
Malik Osborne and RayQuan Evans each scored 12 points. Osborne paced FSU with nine rebounds. Pittsburgh’s Justin Champagnie finished with game-highs of 21 points and 10 rebounds.
For the season, FSU is now 13-3 and 9-2 in ACC play. Following back-to-back losses by Virginia, the Seminoles now have the fewest losses and best winning percentage in ACC play.
