WAYNESFIELD__The visiting Ada High School girls basketball team battled but came up just short at Waynesfield-Goshen 48-45 in a nailbiter that went down to the last second Thursday night, December 28.

Ada senior guard Olivia Burkhart poured in a career-high 28 points to keep the Bulldog girls close. Her last-second halfcourt heave could have forced overtime, but it narrowly missed to preserve the Waynesfield win.
