It's playoff time, and May River had no trouble coming through when it counted. Their pitcher stepped up to hand the Hilton Head Island Seahawks a 16-0 shutout on Tuesday. Considering the Sharks have won 11 games by more than seven runs this season, Tuesday's blowout was nothing new.

Caydon Swofford looked comfortable as she didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only one hit over four innings pitched. She has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't given up more than two walks in six consecutive appearances.

At the plate, the team relied heavily on Mckayla Landry, who went 3-for-4 with four stolen bases, four runs, and two RBI. Those four runs gave her a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Addison Roppelt, who went 2-for-3 with three RBI, one triple, and one run.

May River always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .567. They are a perfect 9-0 when they post an OBP of .513 or better.

The win (which was May River's seventh in a row) raised their record to 14-6. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.3 runs on average over those games. As for Hilton Head Island, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 6-14.

As of now, neither May River nor the Seahawks have any future games scheduled.
