When you cover or cheer for an athletics program like Florida State, it can be difficult to maintain proper perspective. The Seminoles want to win championships. In just about every sport. And in a few — like softball, soccer and now football and baseball again — it can feel like anything less than that ultimate goal, anything less than at least getting to the final weekend, the final game, the final play, can seem and feel like a letdown. Which is why before the postseason begins, I want to write this column about the Florida State softball team, and to a lesser degree the baseball team. Lonn...

Release from FSU Sports Information: Junior outfielder James Tibbs III was named the Atlantic Coast Conference Player of the Year Monday, the ninth Seminole to earn the honor. Tibbs and starting pitcher Jamie Arnold also earned All-ACC First Team honors, while Cam Smith was the second-team third baseman and Jaime Ferrer and Marco Dinges earned third-team recognition. Tibbs, from Marietta, Georgia, led the ACC with 24 home runs, 78 RBI, an .840 slugging percentage, 1.340 OPS and 168 total bases. He finished top 10 in the league in batting average (third, .385), on-base percentage (fourth, .500)...

Strong starting pitching from Carson Dorsey and an eight-run outburst in the third inning by the offense led the No. 10 Florida State Seminoles to a critical 11-3 win over Georgia Tech on Friday afternoon in the first game of a doubleheader. The victory secures another home series win for the Seminoles, who are now 39-13 and 17-11 in the ACC. They are also still very much in in contention for a Top 8 national seed with the two victories already against the Yellow Jackets. Dorsey, coming off one of his worst outings of the season last weekend at Pittsburgh, was effective against the potent Geor...

After a road trip that saw them lose three times in four games, the No. 10 Florida State Seminoles returned home Thursday night for the final regular-season series of the year. Safe to say the Seminoles enjoyed being back. Jamie Arnold allowed three runs in 6 1/3 innings of work, reliever Brennan Oxford didn’t give up a run in relief, and the Florida State offense did more than enough to roll to an 8-3 series-opening victory over the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets at Dick Howser Stadium. The Seminoles are now 38-13 overall and 16-11 in the ACC. Georgia Tech drops to 30-20 and 14-14. Because of in...

Release from FSU Sports Information: PITTSBURGH — Starting pitcher Jamie Arnold struck out 17 batters Friday at Pitt – the most for a Seminole since 1987 – but No. 8 Florida State (36-11) fell to Pitt (22-25) 1-0 at Charles L. Cost Field. A Pittsburgh home run in the sixth inning was the difference in the game. Arnold, who began Friday ranked seventh in the country in strikeouts, put together the ninth 17-strikeout performance in FSU history and the first since Richie Lewis struck out 20 vs. Charlotte in 1987. He needed just 98 pitches and 7.0 innings for his 17 strikeouts, the most for an ACC...

Florida State Sports Information Release: The No. 8 Florida State baseball team (36-10) earned a 7-6 walk-off victory over Jacksonville (22-24) off Lance Trippel’s single down the left-field line to score the winning run on Tuesday evening at Dick Howser Stadium. With the 11th-inning win, the Seminoles swept Jacksonville for the first time since 2018 and hold a 14-0 record over in-state opponents this season. FSU’s first lead of the game came off Trippel’s walk-off single. The last time Florida State earned its first lead on the final play came in an upset victory over No. 1 Wake Forest on May...

The Florida State baseball team’s defense made up for lost time Sunday afternoon. After Saturday’s game was cancelled due to “field conditions and impending weather,” the No. 5 Seminoles came out for the series finale against No. 13 North Carolina State and played one of their best games of the year on that same field. DeAmez Ross, Jaime Ferrer, Alex Lodise and Daniel Cantu all made sensational plays defensively, the offense had timely hits — including a 428-foot two-run bomb by Cam Smith in the first — and Carson Dorsey gutted out 5 2/3 innings pitched in leading the Seminoles to a 8-1 win ov...

Florida State coach Link Jarrett expected a highly competitive series with N.C. State this weekend, and Game 1 on Friday certainly disappoint. After falling behind early and then sitting through a lengthy weather delay, the No. 5 Seminoles rallied to make things close but ended up falling to the No. 13 Wolfpack, 8-7. With the win, N.C. State improves to 26-17 and 13-9 in the ACC, while Florida State falls to 34-10 and 13-9. FSU ace Jamie Arnold had a tough night and fell to 8-2 on the season, but he was hurt by some softly hit balls that fell in for base hits. He only pitched three innings bec...

It looked like it was going to be another heartbreaking loss on the road for the FSU baseball team. Instead, it became one of the Seminoles’ biggest wins of the season. Leading 7-6 with one out in the bottom of the ninth inning, and with runners on second and third base, freshman right-hander John Abraham came on and induced a pop-up to first baseman Daniel Cantu and a line-out to second baseman Cal Fisher to preserve the one-run win over No. 6 Duke on Saturday evening. With the victory, No. 10 FSU (34-8, 13-7) has secured the top-10 series win over the Blue Devils and will go for the sweep on...
