FSU softball wins four ACC awards as eight earn All-ACC nods

Accolades well deserved.

After tearing through conference play, Florida State softball was recognized on Wednesday with four major awards from the ACC, as well as placing eight on All-ACC teams.

Leading the pack was Player of the Year and Defensive Player of the Year Isa Torres, who has pieced together one of the most impressive seasons in Florida State history. Joining Jessi Warren as the only other FSU player to earn both in the same season, Torres hit .475 with 10 home runs and 24 RBI in 24 games, logging 38 hits in 80 at-bats, scoring 38 runs, hitting seven doubles and three triples while being the only shortstop and one of two middle infielders to have no errors in 130+ chances.

Jazzy Francik earned Pitcher of the Year honors, becoming the eighth in school history to win the award after finishing conference play 9-1 with a 1.87 ERA in 63.2 innings, which included two no-hitters and three complete-game shutouts.

Head coach Lonni Alameda won ACC Coach of the Year for the second consecutive year and eighth time overall, having overseen a 21-3 record in conference play while FSU secured the regular season ACC Championship.

Torres, Francik and Jaysoni Beachum were named to the All-ACC first team while Ashtyn Danley, Shelby McKenzie and Marin Heller all earned second team honors and Anna Hinde and Hayley Griggs were named to the third team. Griggs, Hinde and Heller also earned ACC All-Freshmen Team honors.
