You've heard of hotpants, well, how about frozen pants?

This scene of jeanswear was found adorning the sign at the entrance to King-Horn Gym on Wednesday morning.

A few inquiries about who put them there and why went unanswered. It was a clandestine effort, one to make you smile.

Ada boys felled by Musketeers

Posted by Monty Siekerman on Wednesday, January 3, 2018

By Cort Reynolds

ADA - Host Ada hung close with Fort Jennings until a late third period run helped lift the Musketeers to a 60-45 non-conference boys basketball win Tuesday night.  

 

The purple and gold fell to 2-8 with their sixth straight defeat, while the Musketeers improved to 6-3 with the victory.

 

Ada trailed just 31-26 midway through the third quarter, but FJ reeled off a 15-3 flurry to take control of the game. The visitors never led by less than 14 over the final seven minutes.

 

The Musketeers increased the margin to as many as 19 before scrappy Ada ended on a 6-2 spurt.
