Francik dominated on the mound this season, posting an absurd ERA of just 1.86 and a stellar record of 24-3. In 154 innings pitched, her WHIP of 1.07 and 119 strikeouts made the Seminole defense very difficult to hit off of.<\/p>\n
Against Samford, on opening day, she threw a no-hitter, one of three she threw during her sophomore season. In the ACC tournament games, she had a near-perfect performance in 11.2 combined innings with just one earned run and 10 strikeouts.<\/p>\n
In 2026, Francik was named to the 2026 NFCA First Team All-Region team, as well as being named the ACC Tournament Most Valuable Player and First-Team All-ACC. A two-time ACC Pitcher of the Week and the 2026 ACC Pitcher of the Year was her award for such dominance on the mound.<\/p>\n
