San Clemente posted its first shutout of the season and multiple defensive players had big games.
Reid stood out for the Tritons with five tackles and two sacks. He added a forced fumble, a fumble recovery and a field goal block.
He is a baseball guy with good speed off the edge and can cover a lot of ground in pass coverage. San Clemente loves versatile, athletic linebackers like Reid.

Cajon traveled east and played Williams Field of Arizona last week.
The Cowboys lost 13-12 but got a big game from Terrell.
Terrell had seven tackles with four sacks in the loss. The four sacks are a career-high.
The Long Beach Poly defense was constantly in the backfield and forced the opposing Division 1 quarterback to make difficult decisions with the ball last week.
Poly beat Mission Viejo 35-30 and the front seven of the Poly defense was largely responsible for the win.
Williams had a big game with 14 tackles, four for a loss and a sack. Even on plays where he did not record a sack, he drew the block that led a teammate to the sack.
Highlights
Mater Dei made a statement against the top public school program in California and showed how wide the gap is between them and the next best team.
The sophomore linebacker had three tackles, all three for a loss with a pair of sacks.
