Posted by Paula Scott on Wednesday, January 18, 2023

By Paula Scott

A third Neighborhood Revitalization meeting was held on January 14 to further develop a grant application that could raise as much as $750,000 to improve certain areas of the village.

Discussion revolved around what projects are allowed and favored by the state and what areas of the village may be included in the application. Areas north of North Ave./State Route 81 and south of Lima Ave. cannot be part of the application.

Following this meeting, cost estimates will be generated for a variety of proposed projects. To allow time for this, the next meeting has been scheduled for 10:00 a.m. on March 18 at the Depot, 9 Central Ave.

The visiting Ada High School girls basketball team raced to a 20-0 lead and cruised to a 55-19 win over county rival Ridgemont Monday evening, January 16.

The Bulldogs improved to 8-8 with the lopsided non-league victory. Meanwhile, the struggling Gopher girls fell to 0-11 with the defeat.

"We had a big lead early and it just grew from there," said Ada head coach Zach Ricker. "It gave us an opportunity to rotate girls and play with different lineups than usual.

"I felt like we shared the ball really well again tonight," he added. 

Bulldog senior guard Courtney Sumner canned 11 baskets with one trey to tally a game-high 23 points.

Ada pressed its way to a 14-0 margin, led 20-0 after the opening stanza and was never threatened. Sumner netted six two-point baskets in the first quarter.
