The Atlantic boys tennis team took the title at the Class 1A District Tennis Tournament they hosted on Wednesday. The Trojans notched 21 points on the day to run away from the pack. Creston was 2nd with 14 points and Clarinda was 3rd with 13 points.

The Atlantic doubles team of Grant Podhajsky and Cooper McDermott earned a return trip to the State Tournament with a runner-up finish Wednesday. The duo placed 8th at state a year ago. Atlantic’s Nile Petersen also qualified for State in singles play with a District Championship. He earned his way to the final and then was awarded the title after his opponent forfeited the final match due to cramping issues.

Atlantic will move on to Sub-State play as a team on May 19th at Kuemper Catholic. Creston will host Clarinda in a Preliminary Sub-State match this Saturday to determine which of them will join Atlantic in Carroll.
