Florida State University's baseball team continued its unbeaten streak, first with a resounding 14-0 victory over New Orleans, marking a significant step towards surpassing last year's win total without a single loss. Jamie Arnold (4-0) led the team to victory, with notable home runs from Tibbs (7) and Dinges (3). The Seminoles demonstrated their offensive prowess early in the game against New Orleans, with notable performances including a RBI double from James Tibbs. The momentum carried over into their next game against No. 8 Florida in Gainesville, where FSU secured a 12-8 win. The match saw FSU taking an early lead, with James Tibbs III hitting his eighth home run of the year, contributing to a 7-0 lead by the top of the fourth inning. Despite Florida's attempt to close the gap, FSU maintained their lead, highlighted by a strategic move that saw Alex Lodise hitting a two-run double. This victory brought FSU's record to 15-0, matching their start from 2015.
