GAME NOTES: The Florida State Seminoles go for their fourth consecutive victory this evening, as they tangle with the Clemson Tigers in an ACC bout at the Tucker Center.
The Seminoles aren't a lock for the NCAA Tournament, but they have helped their cause by winning three straight and four of their past five outings. On Wednesday, FSU defeated North Carolina, 77-67, for its first victory in Chapel Hill since 2000. The Seminoles are now 20-7 overall and in good shape heading into the ACC Tournament.
Clemson meanwhile, still could use another quality win to improve its chances of reaching the Big Dance. On Wednesday, the Tigers' road woes continued, as they suffered an 88-79 defeat at Maryland. The loss snapped a three-game win streak and dropped Clemson to 19-8 overall and just 1-5 on the road in conference play.
As far as the all-time series goes, FSU holds a 29-25 lead over Clemson, although the Tigers notched a 77-67 victory in a meeting earlier this month.
Defense was lacking for Clemson on Wednesday, as it allowed Maryland to shoot 54.2 percent from the floor, including 8-of-13 from long range, in an 88-79 defeat. The Tigers, who actually led 48-39 at the break, were also outscored 16-8 at the foul line. Demontez Stitt scored 15 points in a losing cause, while Trevor Booker registered a double-double with 13 points and 13 rebounds. Booker is both the team's leading scorer (15.3 ppg) and rebounder (8.3 rpg) on the season and he also has 39 steals to his name. Stitt comes in with 10.8 ppg and he has been responsible for setting up Booker, dishing off a team-high 3.3 apg.
The Seminoles built a 48-33 halftime advantage behind 9-of-15 shooting from long range, and they went on for a 77-67 victory at UNC on Wednesday. FSU went just 2-of-9 from beyond the arc in the second half, but shot a sound 47.4 percent from the floor for the game. Chris Singleton led the charge with 19 points and eight rebounds, while Deividas Dulkys had 17 points on 5-of-11 three-pointers. Solomon Alabi scored just six points due to foul trouble, but he still averages a team-high 12.0 ppg, to go with 6.5 rpg, for the season. Singleton adds 11.0 ppg and he leads the squad with 7.5 rpg and 63 steals.
FSU is playing well at the moment and should be able to continue its surge with another balanced effort this evening.
