FSU softball: How Allison Royalty's injury impacts Noles against Oklahoma
FSU softball( 46-14) was already the underdog against No. 2 seed Oklahoma (52-6) in the Super Regionals. However, the odds got stacked even more with the news that starting pitcher Allison Royalty is out for the rest of the season. FSU has been battling with a limited pitching staff for much of the 2024 season. Royalty missed a portion of the season earlier, and the Noles have been without Makenna Reid for the past month. However, some gutsy pitching from freshmen Ashtyn Danley and Royalty upon her return helped the Noles reach the Super Regionals unscathed. FSU not having Royalty or Reid available(if Reid returns she will be limited) means FSU will have to likely rely on two freshmen to carry the load. Danley leads the team in innings pitched, and I wouldn't classify her as a freshman anymore, but she's never faced a team like Oklahoma or played on their home field. The same goes for freshman Mimi Gooden, and she's had a lesser role as a freshman than Danley.
