The AHS girls basketball team has not had a winning season since 2015-16, when they went 15-8 overall and 5-3 in the league. This season's core is probably the most talented since that edition, although depth is thin.

A Delphos Jefferson graduate, Ricker served as the freshman boys coach at Ada last season.
