FSU Beats JU 7-2


Behind a solid outing by Bo O'Dell and home runs by Mark Hallberg and Dennis Guinn, the top-ranked Florida State Seminoles (32-4) avenged an early season loss to Jacksonville (21-18) defeating the Dolphins 7-2 Tuesday evening at Dick Howser Stadium. The first four batters in the Seminole line-up combined for nine hits and six runs as FSU extended its home winning streak to 27 games.

"It was a good win for us," said head coach Mike Martin. "I thought Bo O'Dell pitched very well. We were able to get three other guys some work tonight and I thought all of them threw well too. It was a game that we really needed to win. We played well last weekend at NC State. We knew we had a conference series coming up this weekend, so we certainly wanted to keep everything going. We played solid baseball and got the job done tonight."

Guinn and Hallberg each recorded two-run home runs in the bottom of the third to push the Seminoles' win streak to 25 straight games over the Dolphins on Mike Martin Field.
