Baylor led 17-14 at halftime after Hunter Dekkers hit Dimitri Stanley for a 24 yard score with :46 left in the half. The Cyclones didn’t carry that momentum over though and failed to score in the third.

Hunter Dekkers went 23-36 passing for 284 yards and 2 touchdowns. Jaylin Noel had 7 catches for 120 yards and Jirehl Brock ran for 77 yards and a score. The Cyclones fall to 3-1 overall and 0-1 in the Big 12.

Baylor was led by 19-26 passing for 238 yards and 3 touchdowns from quarterback Blake Shapen. Richard Reese had 83 yards and 1 score on the ground. The Bears improve to 3-1 overall and 1-0 in Big 12 play.

Red Oak HS teacher placed on leave after “losing her composure”

News

September 24th, 2022 by Ric Hanson

(Red Oak, Iowa) – An incident Thursday in a Red Oak High School classroom resulted in a teacher being placed on administrative leave. Red Oak Superintendent Ron Lorenz issued a statement to Red Oak Junior/Senior High School students, saying a teacher lost her composure during a Foods and Nutrition class. Rebecca Stanbrough reportedly made “inappropriate comments,” to students in the class.

Superintendent Lorenz said “While we cannot comment specifically on any confidential personnel matters, we wanted to let you know that Mrs. Stanbrough is currently on administrative leave, and the District is looking into this matter in accordance with applicable laws, and Board Policies.”

Additional information regarding the incident – which was apparently caught on video, according to some social media posts -was not released.

Atlantic Parks and Rec to conduct a work session on Splash Pad planning

News

September 24th, 2022 by Ric Hanson

(Atlantic, Iowa) – The public is invited to observe a work session for the Atlantic Parks and Recreation Department, Monday afternoon, with regard to planning for a long-desired Splash Pad. The meeting takes place in the City Council’s Chambers inside the Atlantic City Hall, beginning at 5:15-p.m., Monday (Sept. 26). A quorum of the Parks Board and City Council members may be present, but no voting will take place. The prospect of having a Splash Pad has been discussed in many community forums and other sessions in one form or another, for more than 10-years. Parks Board Chair Jolene Smith tells KJAN the Parks Board decided this year to do what is necessary to make the project come to fruition.

An online survey is still available for you to help determine what types of other aquatic equipment, or, “toys” might be offered, along with a splash pad.

The Atlantic Chamber’s on-line survey remains open until 5-p.m., Monday. If you don’t have access to the internet, you’re welcome to come to the meeting and offer your input. Jolene Smith says a splash pad will be a nice addition to Sunnyside Park, located between the baseball diamonds and the Sunnyside Pool itself. She says a splash pad is just one of the plans the Parks Board wants to make a reality in the Park/Pool area.

Atlantic Mayor Grace Garrett says the community and towns around it, are ready for the project to happen, and the project will help to make Atlantic a “Destination for families to come to.”

Jolene Smith says once they glean from the surveys what people want to see most in a splash pad, the Parks Board will send that information out to the four different companies who pitched their designs to the Board, and give them 10-days to submit a cost estimate. That will be followed by a Parks Board meeting to decide which plan they wish to move forward “full force” with.

The Mayor encourages everyone to come to City Hall Monday evening to listen to the discussion, and offer input.
