Live updates: Wake at FSU

[Bob Ferrante]

FSU (19-5, 8-3) plays host to Wake Forest (13-9, 4-7) tonight at 6 p.m. on ACC Network Extra.

We'll have some observations and updates below as the Seminoles look for their first 20-win season since 2019-20 and the 19th in program history.

Three blocks early here by FSU, although the Seminoles trail 8-6 with 4:08 left in the 1Q

 

[Bob Ferrante]

FSU up 14-13 after 1Q

The Seminoles have used nine players. The 10th is Turnage, and she is here but has a brace on her knee. Not dressed out

Erin Howard with a pair of 3s and a bucket, eight points, in the second quarter

FSU 22-15 with 7:44 to half

FSU outscoring Wake 14-4 in the second period

Wow. A Latson 3 at the buzzer before the half. FSU opens up 35-17 lead at the half

Seminoles outscored Wake 21-4 in the second period

Halftime stats:

 

[Bob Ferrante]

I really love Latson's stat line at the half: nine points, three rebounds, two assists, two blocks, one steal. Very nice

Nice first half. Great defense on Spears who dropped 34 on Louisville last week.

Hope that shot gave Latson some momentum, she has been struggling (by her standards) the last couple weeks.

 

[Bob Ferrante]

A few minutes ago, Latson got a steal and split two defenders to get to the bucket. Maybe not her best basket of the year but it's up there for me

 

[Bob Ferrante]

FSU leads 45-26. Very good defense again by the Seminoles as Wake is shooting just 26 percent from the floor and is only 1 of 15 from beyond the arc

 

[NoleLizards]

I'm glad our women's team is worth a flip.

 

[Bob Ferrante]

FSU leads 56-31 after 3Q

Seminoles outscored Wake 21-14

 

[Bob Ferrante]

Latson with 17 points

Timpson with 12 points and five rebounds

Latson walking off to the bench, putting pressure on both feet so not sure it's anything significant from our view

Please God 🙏

 

[Bob Ferrante]

Latson seems fine. She's running around, sitting on the bench.

With the score what it is, she may not play the rest of the way

 

[semispear]

Myers has really been playing well lately. Best she has played in the past couple of years.

 

[Bob Ferrante]

Myers with a bucket and the foul here with 44 seconds to go

She misses the FT but has 12 points

 

[Bob Ferrante]

Latson did return to the gaame

FINAL: FSU 72, Wake 44
