Softball unable to keep up with FSU

Florida State came to Charlottesville riding a seven-game win streak. The Seminoles left with a 10-game streak after taking three straight games from Virginia (7-16, 2-4 ACC), during which the Cavaliers never led and only managed to tie the score once, by a combined score of 22-5. In the first game, Florida State (21-9, 4-2 ACC) jumped all over junior pitcher Karla Wilburn on its way to a 9-1 victory.

Georgia Tech's 13-24 shooting from the 3-point line and the 18 points apiece from seniors Anthony Morrow and Jeremis Smith, however, was enough for the Yellow Jackets to trump the Cavaliers' offensive output.

Hewitt knew it

There were many outstanding performances in yesterday's game: Anthony Morrow's ridiculous 6-for-9 3-point shooting on one side and Singletary's double-double on the other.
