The Atlantic Trojan’s basketball team fought at home on senior night but fell short against the Denison-Schleswig Monarchs 57-51. The first quarter saw an electric performance from Nolan Waters hitting three triples to try and keep his team in the mix as they were down 15-11 after the first. In the second quarter Atlantic put on 12-2 run at the start of the second to take the lead for the first time during the night at 23-20. Denison-Schleswig then had multiple timely baskets to calmly answer Atlantic and take the lead into half time up 28-25.
In the third quarter both team’s offensive productions slowed down with the slew of foul’s being called. The Trojans got within six points of the Denison-Schleswig lead early in the fourth quarter, but the Monarchs would put together an 8-0 run to seize control of the game and ultimately win 57-51.
Atlantic Head Coach Dalton Franken said Nolan Water’s offensive production was impressive, but the rest of the team had too many breakdowns on the offensive end.
The Monarchs were led by 24 points from Lance Arkfeld and increase to 8-7 on the season. Luke Wiebers added 18 points on the night.
Atlantic was led by 20 points from Nolan Waters and Colton Rasmussen. The Trojans fall to 5-13 on the season and will now prep for a trip to Harlan on Tuesday to square off against the Cyclones. It is expected to be a physical matchup.
Tipoff is set for 7:30 p.m.
The Atlantic Girls basketball team carved out a 49-39 win at home on Friday night against the Denison-Schleswig Monarchs. The Trojans had a 9-2 first quarter lead melt away early in the second quarter but they responded thanks to 10 big points in the first half from Paytn Harter. Atlantic went into the locker room with 10+ turnovers and looked lethargic on the court. In the second half Atlantic clamped down defensively on the Monarchs and started the fourth quarter on a 10-2 run to grab the win. Trojan head coach Dan Vargason was proud with the overall effort from Atlantic in the second half.
It was a sturdy team effort for Atlantic with three players finishing in double figures. Paytn Harter led the Trojans again with 21 points. Makenna Schroeder added 11 points and Zoey Kirchhoff chipped in 11.
Atlantic improves to 8-12 on the season. Next up is a trip to Harlan on Tuesday and it’s a game where Vargason expects his team to be more aggressive.
Denison-Schleswig was led by 20 points from Kiana Schultz. The Monarchs drop to 8-9 and will face Carroll on Saturday afternoon.

IOWA CITY, Iowa — Former University of Iowa quarterback Wilburn Hollis passed away on Thursday at the age of 83. No public services will be held.
Hollis played quarterback for the Hawkeyes from 1959-61 and was one of the first African Americans to earn All-America accolades. He was recognized as a second-team All-American and first-team All-Big Ten honoree in 1960. He scored 68 points his junior campaign, the most scored by a Hawkeye since 1922. Against Wisconsin, he threw the game-winning touchdown pass with 52 seconds remaining in a 28-21 victory. That performance earned him National Back of the Week honors from the Associated Press and elevated the Hawkeyes to the No. 1 national ranking after the win. Iowa spent three weeks at No. 1 and won a share of the Big Ten title with an 8-1 record.
A team captain in 1961, his senior season was cut short due to a season-ending injury. Hollis scored two touchdowns and threw for two touchdowns his sophomore season in 1959.
Hollis was born in Mississippi. He lived at Boys Town in Omaha, Nebraska from age nine under the competition of high school, where he excelled in football, basketball, baseball and track. In 1957, he led his football team to an undefeated season and was named on a scholastic All-American team. Hollis was recruited by Coach Forest Evashevski.
The third ranked Iowa Hawkeye women will bid for a rare win at Maryland on Saturday night. A Lisa Bluder coached Iowa team has never won in College Park and a year ago the Terps hammered the Hawkeyes by 28 points.
That’s senior guard Kate Martin. Iowa’s last three losses at Maryland have been by an average of nearly 27 points and Martin says pressure defense has been a big part of that.
Iowa coach Lisa Bluder says Maryland is tough to beat on their home court because they have had outstanding teams.
Iowa is 9-1 in the Big Ten. Maryland is 4-6.
The Northern Iowa women host Drake Saturday night in Missouri Valley Conference play. The Bulldogs are tied at the top of ther league race with Belmont while the Panthers are 6-3 after a mid-week win at Illinois-Chicago.
That’s UNI coach Tanya Warren who says Drake is difficult to guard.
The Panthers won both meetings last season.
