Atlantic Tries to Make it Three in a Row vs. ADM

September 19th, 2014 by Jim Field

Coming off a 7-6 win over Glenwood to open district play last week, the Atlantic football team is home to try to extend their winning streak to three games tonight as they host ADM.

The Trojans haven’t been able to muster a lot of offense so far this season, but the defense has come up big in the last two wins. Last week, the Trojans stopped the Rams twice on the one yard line, with one of those stops turning into a 99 yard, 22 play, nine-plus minute drive for the winning touchdown.

After facing three teams that predominantly run the ball, Trojans Head Coach Eric Waldstein says his team will face a 1-2 Tigers club that likes to throw the ball…..a lot!

Last week, ADM lost a 7-6 match-up with Dallas Center-Grimes that saw the Tigers throw four interceptions. Waldstein hopes his Trojan squad can cause the same type of turnover problems.

Kick-off tonight at the Trojan Bowl is set for 7:30.

You can hear more from Coach Waldstein this afternoon at 4:45 on “Trojan Preview.”
