Feisty Ada girls succumb late to Leipsic

By Cort Reynolds

Playing on their home court, the Ada High School girls basketball team competed well but lost 45-36 to Leipsic in a hard-fought NWC battle Monday night, January 31.

The game was moved up from Thursday due to an impending snowstorm. 

The Lady Bulldogs trimmed a 12-point deficit in half at 35-29 heading to the fourth quarter. Neither team scored during the first three-plus minutes of the final stanza.

Junior Leipsic guard Whitney Langhals then took off with a long defensive rebound and scored a key fast break layup with 4:49 remaining. The basket broke the ice and sparked a decisive 10-0 run that extended their lead to 45-29.
