Northwest Conference play began this past Friday night as the Bearcats of Spencerville paid a visit to Ada's War Memorial Stadium to take on the Bulldogs. Senior quarterback Matt Wilcox unleashed a monster game, throwing for 483 yards and 6 touchdowns in route to a 39-21 Bulldog victory. The win lifts Ada's record to 2-0.
Both offenses got off to a slow start, with only the Bulldogs scoring in the first quarter, a 25 yard touchdown pass from Wilcox to freshman Trent Joliff. Senior Austin Dumbaugh converted the extra point, giving the Bulldogs a 7-0 lead after one.
