Florida State's Dani Morgan robbed a potential game-tying homer with expert precision and a perfect leap

The Florida State Seminoles are off to a torrid start this softball season, and they pushed their record to a blazing 11-0 on Sunday on the strength of a 5-2 win over No. 6 Tennessee. It's also the team's 17th consecutive victory dating back to last season. 
That the Noles were able to lock down the win came in large part thanks to the efforts of outfielder Dani Morgan. Tennessee's Haley Bearden appeared to have connected on a game-tying two-run homer to left-center in the fourth inning, but Morgan had other plans:

Full sprint, full extension, expertly timed leap ... that play had it all. 
If your jaw is on the floor, don't worry -- ours are too.
