The Atlantic boys basketball team climbed out of a 6-point halftime deficit to Glenwood by erupting for a *29-8 advantage in the third quarter Tuesday night. The Trojans were efficient down the stretch and secured an 85-74 victory over the Class 3A 8th rated Rams. The Trojans led 18-16 at the end of the first quarter but the Rams grabbed back some momentum in the second. A shot at the buzzer before halftime by Cade Van Ness gave Glenwood a 41-35 halftime lead.
Halftime would flip a switch for the Trojans. Atlantic got hot from downtown and forced some timely turnovers in the third quarter to grab a lead that would grow to as much as 15. Chase Mullenix hit a three late in the quarter and Atlantic got the ball back with just a few seconds left in the period. Skyler Handlos fresh off the bench nailed a three from the right side at the horn to give Atlantic a ton of momentum heading into the fourth. The Trojans hit 6 threes off the hands of five different players in that big third quarter run.
Glenwood would get it all the way back to a three point game late in the fourth but Atlantic secured the win at the foul line. The Trojans went 13 of 17 at the charity stripe in the fourth, including six straight makes from Chase Mullenix.
Chase Mullenix was the leading scorer with 31 points on the night for the Trojans. Tyler Moen dropped in 23 and Logan Reilly had 11 for Atlantic. With the win Atlantic moves to 3-2 on the season and will host Shenandoah on Friday night.
Christian Stanislav led the Rams with 34 points and Zach Carr had 15. Glenwood falls to 3-2 and will host Denison-Schleswig on Friday.
