Atlantic Activities Director Andrew Mitchell announced during the noon hour that the Atlantic Trojan football game against Creston will start 30 minutes following the finish of the Freshman game tonight. The threat of severe weather this evening is the reason for the change. For example if the freshman game would finish at 6:00pm the Varsity contest would start at 6:30pm.
T
he Audubon Wheelers are riding high after an opening night win over Remsen, St. Mary’s 58-26 and now face another tough test with a long road trip to Fremont-Mills. The Wheelers were able to get a touch of revenge on Remsen, the team that knocked them out of the high school football playoffs in the quarterfinals last year. Audubon Head Coach Sean Birks said they didn’t talk about that angle much but it felt good to get that win. There was quite a bit of turnover for the Wheelers in some key spots but Coach Birks said he thinks the kids were kind of tired of hearing about that and just wanted to get out and play. He was pleased with how his young guys showed out in week one.
Skyler Schultes threw for 199 yards and 2 scores in week one and also rushed for 189 yards and 4 more touchdowns. Coach Birks said this will be a new experience going to Tabor, a place he has never coached before. He knows the Wheelers will need to be ready to face a hungry and veteran team in the Knights.
Fremont-Mills is coming off a week one loss to Exira-EHK 45-27. The Knights blew a 20 point lead in that game and threw two interceptions in the 4th quarter that lead to their downfall. Head Coach Jeremy Christiansen said it was a good learning experience for his team.
The Knights have a strong returning backfield from their semifinal team a year ago. Mason Vanatta at Quarterback and Jaeger Powers make for a tough senior duo to slow down. The Wheelers will hope they can keep them contained as well as Exira-EHK did in the opener.
We’ll have coverage of the Wheelers facing the Knights tonight on KJAN. Chris Parks and Mike Smith will have the call from Tabor with our Dvorak Tire and Service Pregame Show at 6:30pm and kickoff at 7:00pm. Catch the game on-air at AM 1220, FM 101.1, online at kjan.com, on the web app, or watch the game online as we provide a live video stream on our Facebook page. Also tune in at 5:50pm for our weekly pick ’em show Who’s Gonna Win? and stay tuned after the game as well for all the scores around the state with the Iowa High School Scoreboard Show from 10:00pm-11:30pm.
The Atlantic Trojans football team will play their home-opener tonight at the Trojan Bowl against the Creston Panthers. Atlantic is coming off a season-opening 45-6 win over Saydel in week 1, where as the Panthers are coming off a heartbreaking overtime loss to Chariton 35-34.
Atlantic got a strong performance from the offense in week one with 4 players rushing the ball over 50 yards against Saydel. New starting quarterback Chase Mullenix lead the way with 81 yards and 2 touchdowns and he only attempted 5 passes in the game. Atlantic Head Football Coach Mike McDermott said the Trojans will have to do more this week to top a tough Creston team.
Creston has some weapons on the outside with Kylan Smallwood and Camdon Peterson both topping 100 yards receiving and scoring 2 touchdowns apiece in week one. Coach McDermott said he’s also concerned about what the Panthers can potentially do in the run game.
The Trojans and Panthers kickoff at 7:00pm tonight at the Trojan Bowl. Jim Field will provide updates during our broadcast of Fremont-Mills hosting Audubon tonight on KJAN.
Iowa State Senior De’Monte Ruth has been suspended for Saturday’s football game against South Dakota State. Iowa State Head Coach Matt Campbell announced the suspension on Friday and issued this statement.

We have a higher standard of excellence in our program and we ask our players to put the team before their actions.”
Ruth was listed at the top of the depth chart released earlier this week at the Star flex linebacker position.
