ADA - The host Ada baseball team lost a tense 4-3 battle to backyard rival Allen East in Northwest Conference action Monday evening.

The Bulldogs fell to 5-4 and 1-1 in the NWC with the     league defeat, while AE improved to 4-3 and 1-1 in the NWC after the hard-fought win.

Hustling sophomore center fielder Zac Swaney gave Ada a 1-0 lead in the first inning when he stole home plate.

In the top of the fourth, Mustang Jordan Motter led off with a double over Swaney's head in center field. An infield hit put runners on the corners with none out.
