Reed, Meadows win again

Mid-Suburban League champion Rolling Meadows improved to 19-9-1 with a 1-0 victory over Addison Trail on Saturday in nonconference play.

On senior day for the host Mustangs, senior Austin Reed tossed a complete-game 4-hitter. He induced 13 groundball outs, struck out four, walked none and the hits he allowed were all singles.

It was a good thing Reed was so sharp, because Addison Trail's Zach Dowz allowed 2 hits and struck out 15 in a tough-luck complete-game loss.

Senior Matt Dennis provided on the hits for Rolling Meadows, and it was biggie. His homer in the first inning accounted for all the scoring. Dan Hendrickson singled for the Mustangs' other hit.
