(Atlantic, Iowa) – Tomorrow night Missy Goergen will be inducted into the Atlantic High School Softball Hall of Fame. She played for the Trojans from 1986-1990 and had a prolific career full of awards and honors. Including being a 4-year letter winner, all state honorable mention of all classes, first team all-district, first team all-conference, led the team in triples and stolen bases, and batted over 400.

Softball and athletics have always been a part of Missy’s life. Looking back her family was a big part of why she started playing softball.

When talking about her career, it wasn’t the walk off plays she remembered. But the passion from her teammates and the early opportunities as an 8th grader.

While discussing the significance of being honored in the Softball Hall of Fame Missy was humbled. However, she recognized that she couldn’t have achieved as must athletic success if it wasn’t for her teammates and coaches.

Atlantic Coach Terry Hinzmann, his staff, and players will recognize Missy Worth Goergen before Thursday’s game with Harlan at 7:30pm.
