Atlantic looks to get back on track against Shenandoah

Sports

September 9th, 2021 by admin

Trojan LogoThe Atlantic Trojans football team is looking to bounce back after two deflating losses to start the season. The Trojans have been close in the first half of each of their first two games but second half mistakes have led to two shutout losses. Atlantic has a familiar foe coming to town as they try to right the ship, former district opponent Shenandoah Mustangs. Shenandoah is coming off a nice comeback win over Nodaway Valley in Week 2 after dropping their opener to Missouri Valley. Atlantic Head Coach Joe Brummer was impressed with Shen’s comeback win over the Wolverines.

Coach Brummer said they know the Shenandoah offensive strategy will be to get the ball to their leaders as much as they can. Morgan Cotten is an experienced hard nosed running back and Blake Herold is a big target on the outside. Coach Brummer said those same offensive stars will lead an aggressive defense.

The Trojans and Mustangs will kickoff at 7:00 p.m. at the Trojan Bowl Friday night. A number of things will be happening surrounding the game as well. The Atlantic community is raising funds to donate to the family of Grace Johnson, a Shenandoah student who recently passed in a tragic automobile accident. All fans are encouraged to wear blue in honor of Grace, a 50/50 raffle will be held, and a free will offering will be taken at the gate and you may donate online at gofundme – https://www.gofundme.com/f/hnmbnk-help-the-johnsons or venmo – @forGraceJohnson. Steele McLaren and family will present the funds to the Shenandoah school staff to pass on to the family.

It will also be first responders night with the school district’s Joy Crew holding a tailgate prior to the game, to pay special recognition to First Responders, Firefighters and Law Enforcement. The event takes place between 5:30- and 6:45-p.m. They’ll be treated to a pork sandwich and other goodies. At half-time of the game, those who helped battle the fire at the Atlantic Middle School recently will be recognized, along with their colleagues, especially in light of the 20th Anniversary of the Sept. 11th attacks.

Atlantic’s 1970 undefeated football team will be recognized at the game as well.

Audubon hoping to gel heading into tough test from Fremont-Mills

Sports

September 9th, 2021 by admin

The Audubon Wheelers football team is off to a solid 2-0 start to the season with wins over Southeast Warren and Boyer Valley. Audubon Head Coach Sean Birks said his team has played great for stretches but still feels like they haven’t reached their full potential.

Audubon only lost two seniors from last year’s squad but they were big contributors. Ethan and Joel Klocke were the top receivers and tacklers for the Wheelers in 2020. Coach Birks said Carter Andreasen and Matthew Beisswenger have done a good job of working to fill those important roles. The Wheelers have also gotten a great start from their star quarterback Gavin Smith with 3 scores through the air and 7 on the ground. Coach Birks said the strength of the team all starts up front with starters returning on the offensive and defensive lines.

The Wheelers face last year’s 8-player runner-up Fremont Mills this week. Coach Birks said they relish the chance to get to play strong programs like the Knights, and they have a mutual respect for each other. We’ll have coverage of the game Friday night. Chris Parks will have the call from Chis Jones Field on AM 1220, FM 101.1, KJAN.com, and video on KJANTV. Our night starts with the pick ’em show Who’s Gonna Win? at 6:00 p.m. followed by pregame at 6:30 p.m. and kickoff at 7:00 p.m.
