Silverdale Baptist Academy meant business Monday.
Playing at home again against the same program that ended its high school softball season a year ago, Silverdale left no doubt which was the better team this year with a resounding 15-0 five-inning victory over Sale Creek in a Region 3-A semifinal.
SBA (35-3) will host Marion County at 5 p.m. Wednesday in the region final.
The Lady Seahawks started things with a four-run first inning Monday and tacked on seven more in the second. Taylor Moran, who finished with five RBIs, hit a three-run homer in the big inning. Savannah Turner had two hits that inning, the second a three-run double.
Silverdale coach Tim Couch said his team’s primary focus at Saturday’s practice was hitting – and it showed.
