AURORA — Aurora Central Catholic pitcher Matt Miller was dealing on Monday in the opening round of the IHSA Class 2A regionals. That was not a good thing for the Seneca baseball team.

Led by Miller's four-hit shutout and just enough offense against Seneca starter Josh Rhoder, the Chargers knocked the Fighting Irish out of the postseason with a 3-0 win over the locals. Though the game was played as part of the Seneca Class 2A Regional, Catholic was the higher seeded team and the first-round game was played in Aurora instead.

"We've had a lot of games like this this year," Seneca coach Kirk Houchin said. "But we haven't played this well all year and I'm happy with the way we came out and competed here. Our record is not that good, but it's also not show the way we always played.
