The Atlantic boys basketball team got within 52-50 of the Glenwood Rams early in the fourth quarter, but Glenwood would put together a 15-1 run to seize control of the game and ultimately win 68-55.

Atlantic Head Coach Derek Hall said the Trojans just had too many breakdowns on the defensive end.

Coach Hall rotated a lot of guys in and out of the line-up early in the game and he said he was rewarding some guys for their work over the holiday break.

Glenwood was led by 17 points each from Caden Johnson and Risto Lappala and the Rams improved to 7-2 on the season. Logyn Eckhart added 13 and Zac Kelsey also got to double-digits for the Rams with 10.

Atlantic was led by 15 points from Caden Andersen and Carter Pellett added 13 points. The Trojans fall to 3-6 on the season and will now prep for a trip to Carroll on Friday to square off against Kuemper Catholic.
