The ACC regular season title and No. 1 seed in the ACC women’s soccer tournament are on the line when No. 1 Virginia and No. 3 Florida State meet up in Tallahassee. 

The former-No. 1 Seminoles come into this game following their first loss of the 2021 season. They fell to Duke, 1-0, on Sunday, Oct. 24. With the ‘Noles returning home they will have their home crowd behind them. FSU is 178-15-9 at home since 2005 when Mark Krikorian became head coach, and they are currently undefeated in Tallahassee this season (8-0-0).

The Cavaliers took the top spot in the most recent rankings after convincing wins over Louisville (4-1) and Miami (6-1). Those two wins have guaranteed them at least a share of the ACC regular season title even if they were to lose to Florida State. A Virginia win or tie would clinch the ACC crown outright.

As of right now Virginia’s Diana Ordonez leads the ACC in goals with 13 and will win the regular-season scoring title for the conference. If FSU’s Beata Olsson (11) scores two goals on Thursday, she will match Ordonez. With three or more Olsson will take the lead. 

Series history

• Virginia leads the series at 21-9-7.
• The Cavaliers are 6-2-3 in games at Florida State
• In the last 25 meetings, 19 of them have been decided by one point or have been a draw.

What you need to know:

Florida State had been No. 1 the entire season, starting 14-0. But a draw and loss dropped the Seminoles to third in the latest United Soccer Coaches poll. That moved ACC rival — and Thursday foe — Virginia to the top spot.
