The Seminoles are 8-3-0 at home, 3-9-2 in Winston-Salem and 3-1-4 at a neutral site, including a matchup in last season&#8217;s ACC Semifinals.

The Demon Deacons are 4-2-3 in the ACC and tied for eighth place with 15 points. The team is coming off a 1-1 draw to No. 2 Notre Dame on Sunday after a 2-1 win over Pitt to begin the weekend. That victory snapped a three-game winless streak. Against top-25 opponents, WF is 1-0-1, with a 3-2 win at No. 9 Duke along with the draw to the Fighting Irish.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nThe Demon Deacons are receiving votes in this week&#8217;s United Soccer Coaches poll.

Dudley recorded a brace and had the game-winning assist, while Hudson netted the game winner. Their efforts helped the Seminoles earn their first top-10 road win since 2023 and their first victory over a top-three team in the regular season, home or away, since a 1-0 win at No. 2 Virginia on October 6, 2022.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nOn a chilly night in Charlottesville, the Cavaliers took a 1-0 lead just after halftime before Dudley tied it 10 minutes later in the 59th minute. Less than five minutes passed for Dudley to get her second to give FSU a 2-1 advantage. UVA tied it at 2-2 in the 79th minute only for Hudson to win it in the 89th.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nThursday night marked the third time in four games, all in the last 15 days, that the Seminoles played a team that was and still is ranked No. 3 or higher in the national polls.
