The Atlantic Trojan boys basketball team had a dominating road victory, winning 72-35 to give Head Coach Dalton Franken his first win as Head Coach. The Trojans started on a 8-2 run and controlled the rest of the game. By halftime Atlantic was leading 41-16 and they never let their foot off the gas.

Atlantic was led by Colton Rassmussen who scored 27 points from multiple treys and Gavin McLaren with 14 points over five put backs. Coach Franken explained that while getting his first win was nice, he enjoyed the performance on the floor from his team more.

With the win, Coach Franken hopes the Trojans can carry the positive momentum and speed into Tuesday’s contest at home against Kuemper Catholic.

Atlantic is now 1-4 on the year and Nodaway Valley remains winless at 0-4.
