The Clarendon Hills Little League team, including Oak Brook resident Matthew Kalish, advanced to the Little League World Series after a strong summer run through district, sectional, and regional tournaments. Representing Illinois, the team competed in Williamsport against top programs from across the United States. While they did not capture the title, the players demonstrated skill, determination, and teamwork on a national stage. Their success brought recognition to the program in all of Chicagoland and strong support from the local community. Congratulations to the dedicated players, coaches, and families on the historic achievement for Clarendon Hills Little League.
