Fourteen and Counting


FSU pounded North Florida today 16-3 and extended FSU's season-opening winning streak to 14 games - one shy of the standard set by Woody Woodward's 1975 team. It also continued FSU's impressive stretch at the plate in scoring double-digit runs in 11 games and collecting 10 or more hits in 13 games, and 12 consecutively.

Rye led the 14-hit onslaught in going 3 for 4 against North Florida (2-9). Rye's effort was reflective of his early season with three of his six RBIs coming with two outs. Of Rye's 23 RBIs, 16 have come with two outs. The junior's six RBIs against North Florida were the most by a Seminole since Eddy Martinez-Esteve accounted for that many against Wake Forest in 2004.
