September 30th, 2016 by admin
The Atlantic Trojans Football team returns home this week for another tough game in Class 3A, District 7 as they host the 4-1 Glenwood Rams. The Trojans are trying to move on from last week’s 56-6 loss at Creston which dropped them to 1-4 on the season. The Trojans had a tough time slowing down a powerful Creston run game and Head Coach Mike McDermott knows they face another tough challenge this week against some option attack from Glenwood.
Glenwood brings a balanced offensive attack into the contest with Quarterback Kolten Wilwerding throwing for 673 yards this season with 9 touchdowns and 5 interceptions for the Rams. Mavrick Decker is his favorite target with 18 catches for 344 yards and 5 touchdowns this season. Coach McDermott said his team will have to be ready for a balanced attack from the Rams.
Kickoff at the Trojan Bowl between Atlantic and Glenwood is set for 7:30pm.
