TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Freshman Bryce Hubbart, making his first series-opening start of the year, threw 6.0 innings and allowed just one run in Florida State’s 8-3 win over Clemson Friday at Dick Howser Stadium. Logan Lacey led the Seminoles (27-18, 18-13 ACC) at the plate with two doubles and three RBI, while Hubbart shut down Clemson (23-22, 15-16) after the Tigers scored a first-inning run.
Hubbart improved to 6-4 on the year, striking out seven Clemson batters over six innings. The freshman hit Clemson’s first batter of the game and the Tigers took a 1-0 lead on a Caden Grice single.

Born and raised in Anderson, S.C., James Parker always had one big dream, to be a Clemson baseball player. Parker grew up coming to Clemson baseball and football games, making him fall in love with the school more and more with each visit. More significantly, his father, Tim Parker, pitched for the Tigers from 1989-91 and was later a third-round draft pick of the Chicago Cubs. Parker saw his father as a role model and has wanted to play for the Tigers, like him, since he was a little kid. Parker was determined to turn his dream into a reality, and his high school baseball career helped lead him to that point.
