Oziyah Sellers hit 4 3s, scores career-high 27, Stanford beats Florida State 78-71
STANFORD, Calif. — – Oziyah Sellers made 4 of 6 from 3-point range and finished with a career-high 27 points on 10-of-16 shooting to help Stanford beat Florida State 78-71 on Saturday night.
Benny Gealer and Jaylen Blakes added 13 points apiece for Stanford (14-6, 6-3 ACC). Maxime Raynaud, who went into the game No. 5 nationally in scoring (21.1 per game) and No. 3 in rebounding (11.6) finished with 14 rebounds to go with a season-low eight points on 4-of-11 shooting.
Sellers hit a 3-pointer 6 1/2 minutes into the game that gave Stanford the lead for good and followed with back-to-back dunks before Raynaud scored in the lane to make it 18-10 with 9:34 left until halftime. Daquan Davis threw down a dunk that pulled FSU within two points, but Gealer answered with a 3-pointer and Sellers hit two more in an 11-3 run that made it a 10-point game with 2:29 remaining before Stanford took a 33-25 lead into the break.
The Seminoles, who trailed by at least seven points throughout the second half, shot just 32% (8 of 25) from the field and 1 of 7 from 3-point range in the first half.
Jamir Watkins led Florida State (13-7, 4-5) with 20 points and Malique Ewin added 16. Davis scored 14.
The Seminoles are 1-5 in true road games this season.
Florida State returns home to face Virginia Tech on Wednesday. Stanford also plays on Wednesday, when the Cardinal take on Syracuse and wrap up a three-game home stand.

A 63-year-old man who died after being struck by a freight train March 29 “purposely walked onto the tracks,” an Indian River County Sheriff’s Office spokesperson said March 30.
Sheriff’s officials at 7:20 a.m. March 29 went to the scene at the 77th Street railroad crossing just west of Old Dixie Highway.
Lt. Kevin Jaworski, sheriff’s spokesperson, said the deceased lived in the area where the incident happened, though his name was not immediately being released until additional family members were notified.
Jaworski said the man may have tried to die by suicide.
“Investigators are still looking into it, but I can tell you that he was on the railroad tracks improperly,” Jaworski said. “This wasn’t a malfunction of the gates … he purposely walked onto the tracks.”
Jaworski said investigators spoke to personnel on the Florida East Coast Railway freight train, which was southbound at the time, who provided statements.
“Most trains, if not all trains, have video, so usually the first thing we do is request the video from the train officials and usually pretty quick we’re able to determine what happened,” Jaworski said. “So between the video and then speaking with the … staff we were able to determine that pretty quickly.”
Jaworski said the train in the incident was about 2 miles long, noting trains of that type typically are 1- to 1.5-miles long.
“That’s why you saw a lot of the traffic issues,” Jaworski said. “This one was so long that you had multiple crossings, and that’s why you saw the traffic issues yesterday (March 29) morning.”

A 77-year-old man is facing charges after deputies say he threatened a woman with a firearm during a domestic incident in the Florida Keys.
According to the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office, the incident happened around 2:50 p.m. on March 28 near Mile Marker 38 on U.S. 1.
Authorities say Charles Durand Wilkinson, of Okeechobee, retrieved a revolver and told the victim, “I aught to shoot you.”
The woman was able to pull over, disarm Wilkinson, and throw the firearm into nearby bushes, deputies said. The weapon was later recovered by responding officers.
Wilkinson was arrested and charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
No serious injuries were reported.
The train hit a pedestrian about 7:20 a.m. March 29 at the 77th Street railroad crossing, just west of Old Dixie Highway.
A man died in a freight train crash on the morning of March 29 in Indian River County, according to sheriff’s officials.
The Florida East Coast Railway train hit the man, identified as a pedestrian, about 7:20 a.m. at the 77th Street railroad crossing, just west of Old Dixie Highway, according to officials.
The man was pronounced deceased at the scene, according to officials. His name was withheld pending notification of his next of kin.
Because of the length of the train, several crossings in the area remain closed until the train can be moved. Drive alternate routes if traveling in the area.
County Road 510 at the crossing and 77th Street at 58th Avenue are currently closed.
A Brightline train was seen stopped just south of 69th Street unable to travel north.
Sheriff’s deputies and railroad officials remain at the scene investigating the cause of the crash.
No further information was immediately available.
