Hello Ethan
I would say, that yes this is what you have found. Occasionally you may even come across 2-septate conidia.

Re : Sphaeropsis sapinea? on cones of Pinus sylvestris
I agree with Chris, but you should know that there is a proposition for reverting this name to the older one (viz. Diplodia pinea). Additionally a new species (D. scrobiculata) was segregated from "Sphaeropsis sapinea s.l." See the attached paper to try to verify if your fungus is really "S. sapinea".
All the best!

Re : Sphaeropsis sapinea? on cones of Pinus sylvestris
Interesting, I see that D. scrobiculata was also collected from Pinus resinosum; I collected Diplodia pinea on red pine needles and cones early last summer and cultured it on a whim, I should look into what species it really is.
I also saw the odd 2-septate conidium as Chris mentioned.
