Behind 434 yards of total offense, tough NWCC champion Riverside rolled in first round playoff action, defeating the Ada Bulldogs 32-7.

The Pirates, seeded fourth in the Division VII, Region 26 computer rankings, racked up 361 rushing yards in route to the lopsided victory. The loss ends Ada's season, as the Bulldogs finish with a 6-5 overall record.
