Atlantic Senior Erin Olsen signed a letter of intent on Friday at the Atlantic High School to play both basketball and golf at Dordt College in Sioux Center.

Erin has also been a big part of the golf success for the Atlantic girls.  She finished 9th in last year’s state golf meet and has been a top contributor all season long in 2016.  The Trojans have only been beaten by two teams on the course this year and they are some of the top teams from the states largest class in Dowling and Waukee.

Olsen was joined by parents and coaches at the signing on Friday.  She’ll get a chance to play and focus on both sports at Dordt next season.
