The No. 10 Florida State softball team continued to dominate with a 10-0 win in five innings over Notre Dame on Friday night at JoAnne Graf Field.

The Seminoles (34-4, 11-0 ACC) extended their NCAA-leading streak to 23 games. 
 
After a scoreless first inning, the Seminoles’ offense got to work in the bottom of the second as Ashtyn Danley doubled to left center, and Hayley Griggs hit her third triple of the season to put the Seminoles up 1-0. Makenna Sturgis drove home Griggs on a groundout, and Isa Torres smoked her eighth home run of the run to deep right field to put the Seminoles up 3-0.
 
Kennedy Harp hit her fourth home run of the year in the bottom of the third to put the Seminoles up 5-0. Danley singled and a hit-by-pitch and an intentional walk drawn by Torres loaded the bases for Jaysoni Beachum. Beachum hit a deep ball to the warning track in center to score Danley. 
 
Griggs came home on a wild pitch, and Marin Heller drove home Torres on a double down the left field line to blow the game open and make it 8-0 after three innings. 
 
Angelee Bueno, Harp and Danley hit back-to-back-to-back singles to load the bases for Griggs who singled up the middle to make it 10-0.
 
Danley got the start for the Seminoles in the circle and was terrific as the junior went four innings, allowed just one hit and struck out four. Bella Dimitrijevic came on in the fifth and struck out two batters to keep the Fighting Irish off the board. Danley improved to 8-1 this season. 

Notre Dame dropped to 16-21, 5-9.
