Ground game and stout defense leads Atlantic to victory at Shenandoah

Sports

October 12th, 2018 by admin

The Atlantic Trojans football team grinded out their third win of the season with a 28-7 victory at Shenandoah Friday night. The Trojans used a strong ground game and stout defense to grab their first district win.

Atlantic rolled up 282 rushing yards against the Mustangs and all four of Atlantic’s scores came in the run game. Tyler Moen led the team with 98 yards on 17 carries with two touchdowns.

The Trojan defense was able to limit the Mustangs to just 163 yards of total offense and forced 4 turnovers.

The Trojans turned the ball over themselves 4 times on 4 fumbles, including on their first offensive play of the game. They quickly bounced back from that mistake with a 10-play touchdown drive on their second possession of the game. Tyler Moen capped that one off with a 16 yard touchdown run.

Atlantic would add two more scores in the second quarter on a 5 yard run by Moen and a 3 yard score by Zade Niklasen. The Trojans led 21-0 at half.

Chase Mullenix added a 15 yard touchdown run in the 3rd quarter in which he drove a defender backward near the 5 and pushed his way in for the score.

Conner Birt got Shenandoah on the board with a 3 yard touchdown run with 7:14 left to cap off the scoring.

The Trojans improved to 3-5 overall and 1-3 in Class 2A District 9. They return home to finish the season against Red Oak next Friday night.

Shenandoah falls to 0-8 overall and 0-4 in the district. They will host Kuemper Catholic in week 9.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Police in Des Moines say a man being sought on multiple arrest warrants fled a police stop before shooting and critically injuring himself. Police say officers tried to stop a car driven by 29-year-old Jakeb Lee Hall around 6:30 p.m. Thursday, when he sped off. Officers gave chase, and Hall’s car soon lost control and crashed into a house.

Police say that as officers approached the car, Hall shot himself in the head. He was taken to a hospital, where he remained Friday in critical condition. Two passengers in Hall’s car were uninjured.
Police say Hall was wanted on warrants charging him with burglary and several weapons and drug counts.

Scam Targets Food Assistance Recipients

News

October 12th, 2018 by Ric Hanson

(Des Moines, Iowa) – The Iowa Department of Human Services (DHS) has been made aware of a potential scam targeting Food Assistance recipients who use electronic benefit transfer (EBT). There have been reports of recipients receiving a text message which advises them their EBT funds are expiring and immediate deposit is required. It then asks them to click on a link to “apply” for benefits, at which point it asks for personal information.

Iowa does not use mobile messaging to share information with EBT recipients. This is a scam. Recipients are advised NOT to click on a link or provide any personal information.
