Even without one of their biggest offensive threats, May River’s boys were crisp Friday night, rolling to a 68-34 home win over Ridgeland-Hardeeville.
The Sharks were without multisport star Garvin Douglas, who played in the Touchstone Energy Cooperatives Bowl on Saturday in Myrtle Beach, but they still blitzed the Jaguars out of the gate, racing to a 20-8 lead after a quarter and extending it to 45-12 at halftime.
