FSU Baseball TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (seminoles.com) - Sherman Johnson's walk-off base hit in the 10th inning scored Giovanny Alfonzo from second base to give top-ranked Florida State (33-7, 19-2 ACC) an 8-7 come-from-behind victory over No. 18 Miami (26-14, 12-9 ACC) Sunday afternoon on Mike Martin Field inside Dick Howser Stadium.

The Seminoles trailed by as many as three runs on Sunday but slowly chipped away at the Hurricane lead scoring two in the sixth and one more in the seventh to force extra innings.

"That's the typical Florida State, Miami baseball game," said head coach Mike Martin. "Miami did such a good job of coming back from a four-run deficit to go up by three. I was just very, very proud of our young men for keeping their poise and getting back in the ball game with a couple key hits."

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- The all-garnet team was all good Saturday in Florida State's spring game.

Dressed in garnet jerseys and garnet pants and playing against the Gold Team in all white, FSU's Garnet squad capped off spring practices with a 35-20 victory in front of 40,631 fans at Doak Campbell Stadium.

Redshirt sophomore quarterback Clint Trickett led the way for the winning team with two touchdown passes while walk-on wide receiver Rashad Gholston had two scoring receptions. Trickett finished the game with 173 yards on 12-of-23 passing.

"I was very pleased with his control in the huddle," FSU coach Jimbo Fisher said about FSU's second-team quarterback. "I think his knowledge of what we're doing right now is getting much better right now. He made some really good plays."
