Pennsville Memorial had already won three in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 12.7 runs) and they went ahead and made it four on Thursday. They blew past the Wildwood Warriors 15-1. The result was nothing new for the Eagles, who have now won ten matches by six runs or more so far this season.

Savannah Palverento made a big impact no matter where she played. She looked comfortable on the mound, not allowing a single earned run and allowing only two hits over five innings pitched. She has been consistent recently: she hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in three consecutive appearances. She was also big at the plate, going 2-for-4 with four RBI, one triple, and one double. That's the most RBI she has posted since back in April.

In other batting news, Avery Watson was incredible, going 3-for-4 with four runs, two triples, and four RBI. Those three hits gave her a new career-high. The team also got some help courtesy of Kylie Harris, who went 2-for-3 with three runs, one stolen base, and one double.

Pennsville Memorial was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .394. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Wildwood only posted a batting average of .235.

Pennsville Memorial pushed their record up to 17-3 with the victory, which was their seventh straight on the road. The road wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 16.3 runs over those games. As for Wildwood, they have been struggling recently as they've lost seven of their last eight games. That's put a noticeable dent in their 3-11 record this season.

Coincidentally, Pennsville Memorial and Wildwood will both be playing Pitman the next time they take the field. The Eagles will head out to face the Panthers at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, while the Warriors will head out to face them at 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday.
