The Atchison Redmen traveled to Kansas City Friday evening to open KCAL play at Washington High School but the Wildcats came from behind to win 24-20.

In spite of a tremendous effort by Senior QB Tanner Huntington who threw 3 touchdown passes and a defense that swarmed all game, Atchison saw their early lead slip away and begin the conference at 0-1.  Austin Housh caught 2 TD's (28 & 19 yards) and Wade Gassman pulled in the third for a 72 yard sprint to the endzone.

The Bank of Atchison Player of the Game was Dustin Goodman (Soph, DL) who led the AHS defense and recovered a fumble to set up one score.  

Next Friday Atchison continues KCAL action as they host Wyandotte in Amelia Earhart Stadium for a 7:00 kickoff.
