Seminoles Dominate No. 23 Virginia In 4-0 Victory
10/17/2024 10:16:00 PM | Women's Soccer
TALLAHASSEE - The No. 22 Florida State soccer team (9-2-2, 4-2-1) secured a dominant 4-0 home victory over No. 23 Virginia (10-5-0, 3-5-0) in primetime on Thursday night. The Seminoles extended their 23-game unbeaten streak at home, tied for the fourth-longest stretch in program history.
FSU applied strong pressure early and was able to strike as Taylor Huff opened the scoring with a header off a corner kick. Huff registered her ninth goal of the season and pushed her team-leading point total to 24.
Four minutes later, Solai Washington was awarded a penalty kick after being taken down in the box and tucked her shot into the bottom left corner to double the advantage.
Florida State continued to ride the momentum as Kameron Simmonds sent in a long-range cross and drew the Virginia keeper out of the six-yard box. The jumble allowed an opportunistic Jordynn Dudley to redirect the ball off her head into Wrianna Hudson's path for a third goal inside the first half. Hudson secured her fourth goal of the season and moved to second in total points with 12.
The Seminoles outshot Virginia 12-1 in the first half and sustained the pressure in the second half. The performance was topped off with Giana Riley isolating her defender before beautifully curling her shot off the post to score her first goal since returning from the FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup.
FSU secured its fourth win by a four-goal margin this season and recorded its first multi-goal game since the 3-0 victory over Clemson. The Seminoles now have seven players with double-digit points and locked down a second straight shutout.
Florida State will continue its three game homestand and host Pittsburgh on Sunday. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. and available to stream on ACC Network Extra.
