The Atlantic Trojans boys basketball team will get a strong test tonight at home as they take on the Treynor Cardinals. Atlantic will step outside of the Hawkeye Ten Conference for the 4th time this season to face the Class 2A #7 rated Cardinals.

Atlantic comes in to the game on a three game winning streak and will take on a Treynor squad that has only dropped two games all season. Atlantic picked up wins over Creston on Monday and Clarinda on Tuesday this week. Chase Mullenix is leading the team with 18 points per contest and Tyler Moen has been averaging 14.

The Trojans will need some of their recent strong defensive play to slow down a Treynor offense that has 4 players averaging in double figures. Jack Stogdill has dropped in 12 per game to lead Treynor and he’s been helped by Jerry Jorgensen (11.4), Jack Tiarks (13.8), and Jon Schwarte (11.5).

Chris Parks will have the call on KJAN with pregame starting at about 7:20pm. Catch the game on AM1220, FM101.1, online at kjan.com, on the web app, and live video on our facebook page.
