McCOMB–The visiting Ada High School baseball team lost 10-0 to McComb in Div. IV sectional final action Thursday evening, May 18, to end their season.

The Bulldogs finished up 9-15 following the five-inning defeat.

McComb improved to 15-8 after the run-rule shortened win. The Panthers move on to the district semifinals at Findlay May 24. 

“We ran into a buzzsaw,” said Ada first-year baseball head coach Toby Smith. “Baseball is tough sometimes. They hit everything where we weren’t.

“We just could not get that important out when we needed to stop the bleeding,” he continued. “Give them credit. They hit and pitched well. They are a good team and deserve to move on.”

The Panthers plated four runs in each of the first two innings to seize command early, 8-0.
