The Atlantic girls basketball team got back to .500 on the season with a 60-48 home win over Kuemper Catholic. The Trojans were led by 19 points from Haley Rasmussen and 13 from Maycie Waters.

Waters dropped in 8 in the opening quarter to help Atlantic grab a 19-10 lead by the end of the first. The Trojans got up by 17 at halftime and had a 15 point edge heading into the final quarter. Kuemper would trim the lead down to single digits in the fourth but Atlantic made enough plays down the stretch to keep them at bay.

Atlantic improves to 3-3 with the win and will travel to Lewis Central for their next game on Friday. We’ll have that game on KJAN and KJANTV.

Kuemper falls to 0-5 on the season and are set to face South Hardin on Saturday.
