Who are the Quakers?
Now, let’s talk about the competition. The Quakers, who are the defending Ivy League tournament champions, have been predicted to finish second in their league this season. This series marks an important moment for both teams as it is their first-ever meeting on the baseball field. The Quakers will be looking to kick off their 2025 season in style, making it an exciting challenge for the Seminoles.
Hot Start for the Seminoles
Florida State has been on fire, sweeping Jacksonville last weekend and defeating USF on Tuesday. The Seminoles’ pitching staff is a standout, boasting an impressive ERA of 0.77 and a remarkable 5.44 strikeout-to-walk ratio. That’s a whopping 49 strikeouts against just 9 walks! This kind of performance is tough to beat and shows just how effective the team’s pitching coaches, especially Micah Posey, have been in preparing the athletes.
Feast for the Fans
Fans are in for a real treat this weekend, as the last home series saw remarkable attendance. This could easily be the best turnout for a two-game series not involving their rival from Miami, proving just how much community support the Seminoles have. And with lovely weather expected, spectators are set for a great atmosphere filled with cheers and lively energy!
A Focus on Experience
While the Seminoles are riding high on their recent victories, Coach Link Jarrett has been diligent in preparing his players for the challenges ahead. He has highlighted the experience and competitiveness of Penn, especially with returning players like Hispanic shortstop Davis Baker and outfielder Ryan Taylor, both recognized as All-Ivy performers in the past. This experience could add an additional layer of excitement to the matches.
What’s Next?
As if that weren’t enough, Coach Jarrett has also expressed a strategic vision for the future, already planning for the year 2028. This long-term goal showcases the dedication and ambition of the entire Florida State Baseball Program.
