Florida State (23-9) defeated no. 20 Syracuse (23-7) by a 78-65 score tonight at the ACC Tournament in Greensboro, NC.
Game Recap
Florida State jumped out to a quick 5-0 lead on the strength of an old fashioned three point play from Ta’Niya Latson. O’Mariah Gordon later sank a pair of free throws to give the Seminoles a 14-4 lead. The main reason for the lead was that FSU was able to keep the Orange off of the offensive glass. Syracuse then promptly ripped off a 10-2 run to cut the lead to 16-14 in large part because they started getting second chance points.
