Tuesday’s practice marked FSU’s eighth of spring, with head coach Mike Norvell calling it the offense’s best day of camp and pushing the Seminoles to lock in as they’ve passed the midpoint of camp:
“I want it to be cleaner….I want our staff and players, as we have some new faces, I want to see that improved,” he said. “I want our players and their overall situational awareness to be better. There were some things that showed up in the first scrimmage that we were not good enough — situational football. Come Thursday we’re going to introduce a little bit of two-minute. Saturday we’re going to get, with the officials, a couple two-minute situations, see guys go and operate. That’ll be big, and then just continue to let guys cut it loose and go play to show exactly where they are.”

FSU track and field student-athletes Shamar Reid and Alexa Schwartz earned ACC Performers of the Week honors following the Terry Long FSU Relays:
Coming off a fresh ACC indoor title, Reid opened the outdoor season with a win in the men’s discus for a new personal best and second-furthest throw in program history at 63.68 meters. The Jamaican native’s mark ranks second in the NCAA and first in the ACC this season.
Schwartz was victorious in the women’s javelin, leading the field in all six attempts. The Florida native sealed the victory with a final throw of 55.17 meters, marking the third-farthest mark in FSU history and the top throw in the ACC this season.
FSU women’s golf closed out its regular season by winning the Coach Mo Classic in St. Augustine, with Sophia Fullbrook claiming her second straight individual title:
It was her sixth top 10 performance of her sophomore season and eighth of her career. With back-to-back wins, Fullbrook matches the effort by Mirabel Ting in 2025, who also posted consecutive stroke play wins.
After slipping to third on the front nine, Fullbrook fought for birdie on the 15th hole to move back in contention. After moving back to tie for the lead, Fullbrook finished the day 1-over, 73.
Haruhi Nakatani turned in the best round for the Seminoles on Tuesday, posting 3-under, 69. Nakatani registered back-to-back birdies on holes eight and nine and added two more after making the turn. She finished in ninth place at even par, 216, producing her third top 10 showing of her freshman season.
Alexandra Gazzoli had a strong finish to the tournament, carding three birdies in the final nine holes to post 2-under, 70 for the round. Gazzoli jumped 11 spots on the leaderboard and finished the tournament in 17th place at 4-over, 220.
Finishing at 2-over, 74 for the day was Haley Davis, who carded three birdies on the day and finished the tournament in 45th place at 12-over, 222.
