A win for Atlantic tonight against Boca Raton would give the Eagles a home playoff game against Wellington Nov. 13.
But it also would cause a headache for school administrators.

The football stadium’s 10-year-old bleachers have been condemned by the Palm Beach County School District, spokesperson Kathy Burstein confirmed Friday.
The bleachers were deemed unsafe following an inspection in September, and were closed as a precaution, Burstein said.
“There was some wear and tear to them, and they can’t be used right now,” she said.
Atlantic fans have been sitting on the visitors side of the field during several home games this season.
If the Eagles win tonight’s contest against the Bobcats, the school most likely will rent temporary bleachers for the Wellington game, Burstein said.
The Wolverines are the District 9-8A runner-up.
