By Cort Reynolds

ADA – The Ada High School boys soccer team hammered visiting rival Allen East 9-1 in sectional tournament first round action on a sun-splashed 70-degree Saturday, October 19, at War Memorial Stadium.

Ada improved to 14-4 with the lopsided victory. The match was stopped with 10:11 remaining due to the eight-goal OHSAA tournament second half mercy rule.

AE finished its season 1-14-1 after the defeat.

Ada senior Logan Jolliff blasted three goals in his final home match. Fellow senior playmaker Nathan Williams netted two goals and doled out two assists. Sophomore Andrew Allen scored two goals and dished out an assist. ▶︎

A possible injury rollover accident occurred in Ada on October 10, 2024 at 8:44 p.m., when a driver failed to stop at the intersection of Klingler Rd./County Road 35 at State Route 81.

Walter Henry Gibson, 27, of North Lewisburg, Oh. was traveling northbound on Klingler Rd. in the area of State Route 81, when his Toyota Prius ran the stop sign at the intersection of CR 35 and SR 81. This caused a Ford Expedition traveling eastbound and driven by Mary Theresa Soto, 59, of Ada, Oh, to strike the Prius.

The Prius came to a rest in the roadway, while the Expedition overturned in a nearby yard. Both vehicles were disabled.
