The sixth-seeded Florida State women’s basketball team looks to clinch its third trip to an ACC Championship game as it faces No. 2 seed NC State in Saturday’s ACC Semifinals (2:30 p.m. on ACC Network). FSU has made championship game appearances in 2015 and 2020.
Sophomore Ta’Niya Latson is averaging 22.0 points, 5.0 rebounds and is shooting 53.3 percent (16-of-30) in FSU’s first two ACC Tournament games. She led FSU with 25 points in its 78-65 ACC Quarterfinal win vs. No. 3 seed Syracuse.
FSU and NC State play for the second time this season, with the first meeting resulting in an 88-80 overtime win by the Wolfpack at Reynolds Coliseum. Latson led the Seminoles with 30 points in that tightly-contested game.
Junior forward Makayla Timpson is averaging 16.0 points and 15.5 rebounds in the ACC Tournament so far. She became FSU’s single-season double-doubles record holder in the ACC second round vs. Wake Forest, picking up her 16th of the season. She added 10 points and a career-high 18 rebounds vs. Syracuse to move to 17 double-doubles this season.
Timpson now has 84 blocked shots this season. She is tied with former player Jacinta Monroe for the most blocks in a single season at FSU, needing one more to set the single-season program record.
