Soccer FSU finishes regular season at Miami

FSU sports information:

The No. 6 Florida State soccer team (11-2-2, 6-2-1 ACC) travels south to conclude the regular season at Miami (5-7-4, 1-5-3 ACC) on Halloween night. The Seminoles will look to qualify for the ACC Tournament for a 30th straight season.

Florida State can automatically qualify for the 2024 ACC Women’s Soccer Tournament with a victory over Miami. Based on other results across the conference, the Seminoles can finish between the No. 2 seed and the No. 5 seed with a victory over the Hurricanes. The top six seeds will qualify for the tournament with the top two seeds earning a bye into the semifinal round.

FSU and Miami will meet for the 24th matchup in the series history dating back to 1998. The Seminoles have won the last four games between the in-state foes and dropped just one match in regulation against Hurricanes this century. Jordynn Dudley scored two second-half goals to decide the match at home last season right after scoring two goals at No. 1 North Carolina. Dudley is coming off a two goal performance in the victory over No. 4 North Carolina this season, earning her first career ACC Offensive Player of the Week award while also earning a spot on the TopDrawerSoccer Team of the Week.

The Seminoles totaled 15 goals over the last three games against three preseason ranked opponents including four goals over No. 4 North Carolina. All four goals were scored by underclassmen Dudley and Solai Washington as each recorded a brace. Dudley has two multi-goal performances against top-five opponents, both coming against North Carolina.

Huff leads the squad in all scoring categories with 10 goals and eight assists for 28 total points. Huff became the fastest to reach 20+ points in the past five seasons and has already matched her point tally from last season in nearly ten fewer games.

The freshman class has performed brightly with a combined 60 total points, 20 goals and 20 assists. This marks the most freshmen goal contributions in the past five seasons across all three metrics. Wrianna Hudson leads the class with six goals and five assists. Four of the six freshmen field players have contributed double-digit points inside 15 games.

FSU has scored 28 goals in ACC play, tied for the third most in program history. The defense has kept eight clean sheets including three conference game shutouts.

The 6 p.m. game will be available to watch on ACC Network. Live video and stats will be available at Seminoles.com.

Football Mike Norvell takes daily approach to FSU's roster retention, recruiting

With no bowl game to prepare for, December’s focus will be on three areas:

— Roster retention, with Norvell and the staff evaluating which players are not just returning but those they want back for 2025.

— High school recruiting, which has lagged this fall as losses have mounted. The Seminoles have just 11 commitments and just over a month left to host prospects before the calendar goes dead on Dec. 1, the day after the Florida game. Then it’s a three-day signing window beginning on Dec. 4.

— Transfer portal, which undoubtedly will be a revolving door, and opens up on Dec. 9 after the conclusion of the conference championship games but before bowl games.

The Osceola previously evaluated FSU’s offensive roster and defensive roster, outlining an argument for transfer needs at each position. In this story, we’ll briefly look at Norvell’s recent comments on roster retention and high school recruiting.

Football Could freshman quarterback Luke Kromenhoek make his FSU debut this week?

Mike Norvell said after FSU's loss to Clemson that there was a plan to potentially get Luke Kromenhoek into the game that didn't pan out.

Now, Norvell isn't tipping his hand if the true freshman QB could make his debut Friday night at Duke as part of a modified two-QB system.
