It's playoff time, and Mundelein had no trouble coming through when it counted. They never let the Buffalo Grove Bison get on the board and left with a 6-0 victory on Friday. The result was nothing new for the Mustangs, who have now won 15 matchups by six runs or more so far this season.

Not much got past Sophia Zepeda, who gave up just two hits and racked up 18 Ks to keep Buffalo Grove off the board. Zepeda has been consistent recently: she hasn't given up more than one earned run in three consecutive appearances.

At the plate, Kieley Tomas was excellent, going 2-for-3 with two stolen bases. She is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as she's now snagged at least one in each of the last four games she's played.

Mundelein is on a roll lately: they've won six of their last eight contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 22-10 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.8 runs on average over those games. As for Buffalo Grove, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 14-17.

Coming up, Mundelein is taking a road trip to take on Stevenson at 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday. The Patriots will roll in looking for their 21st straight victory, something the Mustangs surely won't give up without a fight. Buffalo Grove does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
