TALLAHASSEE – National Golfer of the Year Mirabel Ting and National Baseball Player of the Year Alex Lodise are among 284 Florida State student-athletes named to the 2025 Atlantic Coast Conference Academic Honor Roll.

The Seminoles’ swimming and diving team earned 60 total honorees, while the track and field and cross country programs earned 49 honorees. The baseball and football teams earned 31 accolades each. Florida State’s soccer (21), softball (20), and beach volleyball (18) teams earned 18 or more honored members on the ACC’s most prestigious academic list, which continues to set records with each passing year.

The ACC recognized a league record 7,945 student-athletes for classroom excellence during the most recent academic year. The ACC Academic Honor Roll is comprised of student-athletes who participated in a varsity-level sport and registered a grade point average of 3.0 or better for the full academic year. This marks the sixth consecutive year in which at least 5,500 ACC student-athletes have achieved Honor Roll status.

“One of the core principles our student-athletes live by is a commitment to winning each day by giving their best to every obligation they face,” said Florida State University Vice President and Director of Athletics Michael Alford. “That’s easier said than done, but the reason we take such pride in our athletics culture at Florida State is the way these remarkable young people meet their commitments with enthusiasm, purpose, and discipline. It’s inspiring. Our student athletes on the ACC Honor Roll represent the best of an outstanding group that has collectively performed with distinction in the classroom while setting records for overall academic performance. They deserve our admiration and respect.”

Ting was the nation’s top collegiate golfer during the 2024-25 season as she won the ANNIKA Award, was named the winner of the WGCA Division I Ping Player of the Year award and was named the National Golfer of the Year as selected by Golfweek.  She was named the ACC Golfer of the Year in 2025 and earned First-Team All-America honors as selected by the WGCA and Golfweek in 2025.

Lodise, The 2025 Dick Howser Trophy winner as the nation’s top amateur player, was a consensus All-American in a breakout junior season. He was named the ACC Player of the Year, the ACC Defensive Player of the Year and the NCBWA District 3 Player of the Year.  He was also recognized on the Southeast All-Region First Team by the ABCA.

Six Seminole student-athletes – Jahni Kerr (softball), Hallie Wacaser (softball), Kayleigh Clark (women’s swimming), Jenny Halden (women’s swimming), David Quirie (men’s swimming), and Samantha Vear (women’s diving) – were named to the ACC Academic Honor Roll for the fifth time in their careers.  A total of 25 Seminoles were named to the ACC Academic Honor Roll for the fourth time in their careers.

“To have 49 members of our program named to the ACC Academic Honor Roll is a great testament to the hard work and dedication our kids have shown not only on the track but in the classroom,” said Director of Track and Field and Cross Country Matt Kane. “We have a large group and when more than half your team is on the ACC All-Academic team, that tells me they have bought into the challenge of high performance in every aspect of college life.  I definitely want to give a big thank you to Cheyenne (Noli), Leah (Harris) and Miguel (Negron) and the entire academic staff for all of their continued support and dedication to the athletes’ success.”
