Naperville Central’s baseball team is back in the state semifinals for the first time in 16 years after a thrilling 4-2 win over Minooka, reigniting their championship dreams and proving they’re ready to fight for the title. Grant Umbright was the star of the night — slashing four times, stealing home, hitting a game-changing triple, and pitching three innings of shutout relief. His coach called him the best player in the state. Jermaine Kenady was equally vital, making a key defensive play that set up Umbright’s steal, driving in a run, and sealing the win with a diving catch. This wasn’t just one player’s night — it was a team stepping up when it mattered most. The Redhawks are now focused on one goal: the state championship.
