TALLAHASSEE – The Florida State softball team continues to be represented in the national, international and professional ranks following the Seminoles' third Women's College World Series Championship Series appearance in three WCWS trips since 2018.
Reigning ACC Pitcher of the Year Kathryn Sandercock and 2021 ACC Defensive Player of the Year Sydney Sherrill are participating in the US Women's Fast Pitch Camp in Vero Beach. The camp is an opportunity to showcase their skills for the USA Softball Women's National Team Selection Committee, which is choosing rosters to represent Team USA at the Japan All-Star Series in August and the Pan American Games held in Santiago, Chile, this November. Florida State is one of eight collegiate programs nationally, and the only one from the ACC, with multiple representatives selected for the camp.
Jessie Warren, the Most Outstanding Player of the 2018 WCWS, is in her fourth season playing professionally with Athletes Unlimited. She is currently on Team Zerkle, which began its season Monday evening with a 9-7 victory as Warren contributed one run scored to the win.
Four former FSU players are part of the Women's Professional Fastpitch league that also begins play this week. Elizabeth Mason, a member of the 2018 WCWS All-Tournament Team, is on the Texas Smoke roster as are 2023 WFP Draft selections Sandercock and two-time All-ACC performer Mack Leonard. Sherrill is on the Oklahoma City Spark roster.
All-ACC pitchers Caylan Arnold and Danielle Watson represent FSU on the Florida Vibe. That program began its 2023 schedule last week and has played five games so far. Arnold has registered a team-leading eight strikeouts and is holding opponents to a .250 batting average in 6.2 innings pitched.
