TALLAHASSEE - The No. 10 Florida State softball team (27-4, 5-0) continued its hot play with a 9-0 win over Cal (10-21, 1-7) in a five-inning contest that took just an hour and 21 minutes. FSU has now won 16 consecutive games.

Bella Dimitrijevic got the start for the Noles in the circle and picked up a couple of strikeouts to retire the Bears in order in the first.

Jaysoni Beachum walked, and Shelby McKenzie continued her hot play with a single up the middle to score Torres to put the Noles up 1-0. Ashtyn Danley hit a sac fly to center field to score Beachum to make it 2-0.

After Kennedy Harp walked and Bella Ruggiero singled, Makenna Sturgis doubled to center to bring home both McKenzie and Ruggiero to make it 4-0. Ruggiero eventually scored on a wild pitch to make it 5-0. Hayley Griggs kept the bats going with a single to shallow center to make it 6-0, and Torres added to her record with a RBI single to make it 7-0 after one inning.

The Noles added another run in the second as Ruggiero singled to score Danley. FSU's final run of the game came in the fourth inning as Danley doubled to center field to score Madi Frey for her second RBI of the day.
