Atlantic splits series with Glenwood and had a comeback to go with it

Sports

June 19th, 2023 by Asa Lucas

The Atlantic Trojans played dramatic softball doubleheader and had an even series against Glenwood. The Trojans found themselves down 5-0 in the bottom of the 6th. Madison Huddleson stepped up to the plate and led an avalanche of runs to have the Trojans score 7 straight runs.

They would shut down the Rams offense in that first game thanks to 8th grader Peyton McLaren. When she appeared in the 5th inning, she struck out the first two batters she faced. McLaren would finish the first game with 6 strikeouts, 2 hits, and no runs. The Trojans won 7-5.

Coach Hinzmann took notice of her effort.

Game 2 of the doubleheader would go in favor of the Rams. They continually peppered in runs throughout the second game. Scoring 1 in the 2nd inning, 1 in the 4th, 2 in the 5th, and 2 in the 6th. It would be enough to overcome Atlantic at home and win 6-4.

Two different games were played, but Coach Hinzmann took away a few positives from the first one.

With the split series the Trojans now sit at 14-14 and will be on the road taking on Kuemper Catholic on June 20th. The Glenwood Rams are 12-8 and will be playing at home against Shenandoah on the 20th.
