TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- The NC State softball team is set to play its fourth conference series on the road at No. 18 Florida State. The Pack will begin play on Thursday, March 28 before wrapping up the series on Saturday, March 30.Â
All three games will be streamed on ACCNX.Â
A Win ...
- Would move the Pack to 19-12 on the season, 2-8 in ACC play
- Would mark the 613th win in program history and 179th win in ACC play
- Would mark the first series win of the 2024 campaign
- Would be the first series win since the Pack swept Boston College in 2023
- Would be the first series win over FSU since 2007 when the Pack took two games from the Seminoles.
- The series marks the 16th between the two teams and Thursday will mark the 57th all-time meeting.
- The Seminoles have won nine of the last ten meetings with the lone win for the Pack occurring in 2021 -- Pack defeated then #6 FSU 5-2 in Tallahassee to mark the first ranked road win in program history.
- The Pack also defeated the Seminoles in the 2006 ACC Tournament Championship game to claim the program's first title since its inaugural season in 2004.
- In the last meeting in 2022, current junior Alaina Smith and current senior Gracie Roberts each recorded a solo homer in the sixth inning.
- The Pack has scored as many as nine runs and as few as zero against the Seminoles.
HG Approaching 100
- Junior third baseman Hannah Goodwin recorded her 97th career hit in the March 26 loss to Charlotte -- she went 2-for-3 from the batters box.
- She is the first person on the 2024 roster to be nearing the 100 hits milestone -- 67 of her hits have occurred at NC State and 30 of them occurred during her three seasons at Clemson.
Do Your Thing 21
- Sophomore right handed pitcher Madison Inscoe tallied a career high nine strikeouts against St. John's. She recorded six consecutive (third batter face in the bottom of the third to the first batter faced in the bottom of the fifth). She tied the career high in the win over #22/23 South Carolina.
- She had quite the weekend in Columbia as she: threw two complete games, both shutouts | tied her career high 9 strikeouts against Northwestern | walked zero batters in win over #22/23 South Carolina | had a weekend ERA of 1.47 | had a .400 batting average. The shutouts were the first of her collegiate career.
- Inscoe has recorded three games this season with at least eight strikeouts (St. John's, Northwestern, Notre Dame game three).
- She recorded her first home run of the 2024 campaign in the March 26 loss to Charlotte -- it was the third of her career.
