FSU softball game today delayed by rain. Here's the new NCAA tournament schedule
The Florida State softball team will have to wait to play their NCAA softball tournament game Saturday.
FSU vs. UCF was scheduled to start play in the Tallahassee Regional at 1 p.m., but storms in the area delayed the start of play back a few hours. The No. 15-seeded Seminoles will now play the Knights at 5 p.m. in the winner's bracket. The winner of that game will move on to Sunday's regional championship.
The elimination game between Chattanooga and Auburn is now scheduled to start at 7:30 p.m., or about 30 minutes after the conclusion of FSU-UCF. The winner of that game will face the loser of FSU-UCF either late tonight or early Sunday for a spot in the regional championship. By NCAA rule, no game can begin after 11 p.m.

Tallahassee was hit by powerful storms last week that included three tornadoes. Two people died, and the FSU baseball stadium was damaged.
FSU (44-14, 19-5 in ACC) opened its 2024 NCAA softball tournament run Friday with a 3-2 come-from-behind win over Chattanooga. Isa Torres hit a sacrifice fly to tie the game in the sixth inning, and Devyn Flaherty followed with an RBI triple to give the Seminoles the lead for good. UCF (31-23, 12-15 in Big 12) beat Auburn 11-6 thanks to a pair of three-run home runs in the sixth inning by Shannon Doherty and Jasmine Williams.
