Ada scored three runs in the home second to take the early lead and never trailed. FJ plated two runs in the top of the third to pull within a run.

The Bulldogs seized control with a four-run fifth frame to build a 7-2 cushion.

All Ohio Northern University Commencements on May 8 and May 9 will move indoors due to an unseasonably inclement weather forecast.

“When we made the decision to hold in-person commencements outdoors, rain or shine, that made sense until a few days ago when the forecast for Sunday, May 9, predicted very steady wet and cold conditions could negatively impact both ceremonies on that day. Obviously, it was time to reconsider ‘rain or shine,’” explains President Daniel DiBiasio.
