The regular season was a success, but the real challenge begins now, in the postseason. On Friday Atchison will take on Fort Scott at 7:00 PM. The odds don't look promising for Atchison, but the bigger the opponent is, the harder they fall.
After a disappointing seven points in their last contest, Atchison made sure to put some points up on the board against Sumner Academy last Thursday. Atchison took the contest and then some with a 56-20 win over Sumner Academy. The contest was pretty much decided by the half, when the score had already reached 41-14.
Meanwhile, Fort Scott might be getting used to good results now that the team has four wins in a row. They came out on top against Eudora by a score of 21-14.
Their wins bumped Atchison to 5-4 and Fort Scott to 6-2. In their victory, Atchison relied heavily on senior Braydon Dame, who rushed for 105 yards and 2 touchdowns. Fort Scott will need to find a way to minimize his impact if they want to win.
