The Atlantic Boys Swimming team is preparing for their only home dual of the season on Thursday night at the Nishna Valley YMCA.  The Trojans will face Council Bluffs Abraham Lincoln in a dual that begins at 5:00pm.

The Trojans are about halfway through their second season as a program and have sent athletes to state each opportunity they have had between the Girls Fall seasons and Boys Winter seasons.  This year’s boys squad has 12 members including one senior, 3 Juniors, 4 Sophomores, and 4 Freshmen.

The Trojans are led by Junior Damon Miller who currently holds the 8th fastest time in the state in the 100 Freestyle.  He also has turned in the 10th fastest time in the 50 Freestyle and 16th best effort in the 200 Freestyle.  The Trojans strongest relay events are the 400 Freestyle and the 200 medley which they currently sit 30th best statewide in both events.
