April 23, 2021 No. 7 Seminoles Split Friday Doubleheader At Louisville
LOUISVILLE, Ky. The No. 7 Florida State softball team (32-7, 20-3 ACC) split a doubleheader Friday at Louisville (17-22, 11-16). The Seminoles jumped on the Cardinals early, taking a 10-0 win in game one before dropping game two 5-1.
Sydney Sherrill, who tied the ACC career record for doubles Sunday at Syracuse, needed little time to take sole possession of the conference record. The redshirt junior from Moore, Oklahoma, doubled off the wall in center field in the top of the third inning of game one. She then added another double in the sixth inning to end the day with 60 career doubles.
In the first game of the team’s Sunday doubleheader, the Gators outlasted the Louisville Cardinals 2-0.
Chronister propels Gators in game one
Katie Chronister pitched another outstanding game in the circle for the Gators. Sitting down the 3-6 Cardinals through the first three innings, Chronister ran into trouble in the top of the fourth inning. Despite striking out Cardinals catcher Taryn Weddle, she was able to reach base on a passed ball. On the next pitch, Cardinals designated-hitter Taylor Roby ripped a single to right-center field to set up first-and-third with one out.
After a mound visit from head coach Tim Walton, Chronister dug deep and struck out Makayla Hurst looking. Now with two outs in the inning, Chronister got Rebecca Chung to pop out to first base and get out of the inning with no runs allowed.
