After ending a loss to Streamwood with a strikeout last season, South Elgin's Jordan Green has been haunted by that moment. With the opportunity to make amends for that disappointment Wednesday, the senior first baseman wasn't going to let it slip by. 'I carried that through with me throughout this whole game,' Green said. 'I was like, ‘That's not happening again.' My mentality was, ‘You're not beating me.'' Green delivered a two-run single in the bottom of the sixth to tie the game, with the go-ahead run scoring on an error on the same play.
