Matthew Reed

Matthew Reed (also published as Matt Reed) was a Decipher-era Squadron Member, listed as Gold 81 from Huntsville, Al. The slot was retired after Decipher's SWCCG run.[1] He was runner-up in the 1999 Young Jedi World Championship at DecipherCon 1999.[2] Matthew Reed also played at March 2001 Huntsville tournament on 10 March 2001 with ORS ISB, according to Tom Culpepper's tournament report.[3]
He was tournament director of the 2000 Alabama State Championship in Birmingham on 29 April 2000,[4] the 2000 Birmingham Grand Slam on 28 October 2000[5][6] and the February 2001 Huntsville tournament (17 February), which he did not play so that the 14-player field had no bye.[7] Jim Colson's announcement of the 2002 Dagobah Regionals at The Deep Comics, Huntsville, on 29 June 2002 named "Jim Colson/Matt Reed" as tournament directors.[8]
