Florida State Secures ACC Title With Victory Over Virginia Tech

No. 5 Florida State clinched the ACC regular season softball title by defeating No. 18 Virginia Tech 13-4, capping a season where both teams led the conference standings. Florida State's offense was dominant, with every starter but one earning a hit, and Ashtyn Danley pitching a complete game despite challenges from Virginia Tech's Cori McMillan. The series had high stakes, as Virginia Tech needed a sweep to claim the top seed, while Florida State only needed one win, reflecting the season-long battle between these ACC powerhouses. The Seminoles' victory not only secured the No. 1 seed for the ACC Tournament but also highlighted their continued dominance in the conference, having accumulated 33 conference titles and multiple Women’s College World Series appearances. Both teams have sustained impressive win streaks throughout the season, and the matchup lived up to its billing as a decisive end to the regular season. The series concludes the regular season for both, setting the stage for postseason play.
