CAM builds big lead in 2nd quarter and holds off Audubon

Sports

February 13th, 2019 by admin

The CAM Cougars girls basketball team built a 20-point lead in the 2nd quarter and were able to hold off a strong charge from the Audubon Wheelers to win 73-67. The Cougars led the game 21-14 at the end of the first and built the advantage to 20 midway through the second. Audubon used the foul line to climb back within 10 by halftime at 41-31. The Cougars held a 62-54 lead by the end of the third and kept the Wheelers at bay in the final period.

After the game CAM Head Coach Joe Wollum said that second quarter was big, “Yeah early in that second quarter until about two minutes left in the half we saw some of the best basketball we’ve played all year. It was great to see the girls play that way.”

The game was full of big performances from star players as well. CAM standout senior Madison Gettler led all scorers with 25 points, 17 of those in the first half. Paige McAfee hit six 3-pointers and finished with 21 points on the night to help the Cougar cause. On the Wheelers’ side outstanding freshman Aleah Hermensen finished with 24 points before fouling out near the end of the contest. Leah Subbert had 19 for the Wheelers and also fouled out late in the game.

CAM advances to the Class 1A Region 7 Semifinals on Friday night. They will take on the Fremont-Mills Knights, who advanced with a 51-46 road win over Griswold. The Cougars and Knights will meet in Guthrie Center on Friday at 7:00pm. We’ll have coverage of that game on KJAN Friday night.

Atlantic School Board and Teachers Union present initial bargaining proposals

News

February 13th, 2019 by Ric Hanson

The Atlantic School Board and representatives with the Atlantic Education Association, representing the Teacher’s Union, met Wednesday evening at the Middle School Media Center. During the session the Board received and AEA presented their respective Collective Bargaining Proposals for the 2019-2020 School Year. Atlantic Superintendent Steve Barber told KJAN News, that Union requested the District use a Salary Schedule, including Teacher Supplemental Salary (TSS) money. And a raise on the base salary of $990. They also requested a couple of Supplemental B changes, and that all of Appendix A get back into the contract.

The School District’s proposal was to give $650 on the base, minus the current TSS Schedule, and not “Age” the schedule. He said that would be a total package of 2.02-percent and approximately $136,000. The two parties have not yet set the next closed meeting with the Teacher’s Union.

In other business, Superintendent Barber said the School Board talked about the fact the District is on course to have an aviation program. He said they’ve been accepted to be trained and have access to an Aviation curriculum provided by the AOPA [The Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association]. He says the Board is excited to offer the program next year. More details on the program will be released soon.

The School Board also set their next regular meeting on March 13th, as the date for aPublic Hearing on the proposed 2019-2020 School Calendar. Mr. Barber said “The Weather has been a challenge” this year. Because of the number of missed days and or required time for education, there are some changes to the current school year calendar. He said they’re going to add the Friday before Memorial weekend to the make-up schedule, and the Board talked about going to school the following Monday, but given the time-frame, they will look at all the ways possible to meet the minimum required hours for the school year.
