By Cort Reynolds

ADA – The Ada High School softball team bounced back from a loss by dominating Cory-Rawson 12-0 in the belated Bulldog home opener on Thursday, April 3.

Ada senior catcher Natilyn McClain launched two two-run home runs to pace the onslaught.

“Natilyn hit two nice homers,” said fourth-year Ada head coach Jeff Bassitt. “Cory-Rawson is much improved from last year. We got everyone in the game.  

“It is nice to get back on the winning track,” he added.

The Bulldogs out-hit the Hornet girls, 9-2.

Ada improved to 4-1 overall after the non-conference home victory. C-R dropped to 0-1 with the defeat.
