No. 21 Florida State Completes Sweep Over Maryland
The 21st-ranked Florida State softball team shutout Maryland to complete the sweep on Easter Sunday with a 1-0 win at JoAnne Graf Field at the Seminole Softball Complex. The Seminoles improve to 32-13 overall and 8-4 in the ACC, good for a third place ranking, while Maryland slips to 20-20 and 5-7.

Florida State got on the board first in the second inning when the Seminoles were able to manufacture a run thanks to Ashley Stager. The sophomore had a bunt single to lead off the inning, and advanced to second on a Monica Montez groundout.

After stealing third, Kristie McConn lined a double into left field to drive in the first run of the game. Stager led the Noles in hitting, going 2-for-2 along with two stolen bases, including the only run of the game. McConn and Brittany Joseph each also added a hit for the Seminoles
