BRIGHTON, Mass. – No. 12 Florida State held off a Boston College rally in the sixth inning to capture a 3-2 victory in the series opener Friday at Harrington Athletics Village. The Seminoles completed the doubleheader sweep with a 5-0 victory in the second game.

Â
BC fought back for two runs in the sixth as Ellie Mataya doubled off the wall in left to score Erika Andal and Nicole Giery delivered a sacrifice fly to score Djhane Valido.
Â
FSU starter Kathryn Sandercock made the 3-2 lead stand as she went the distance for the win. She struck out two and allowed two hits in seven innings of work.

BC starter Susannah Anderson pitched well and also threw a complete game, allowing just four hits and three runs in seven innings.
