ADA - The homestanding Ada baseball team lost a 4-1 pitcher's duel to visiting Hardin County rival Kenton on a windy Saturday afternoon at the park diamond.

The Bulldogs fell to 5-10 following the loss. Kenton improved to 4-10 with the win. 

The Wildcats scored three runs in the second inning, and tacked on one more in the fourth to build a 4-0 lead.

Ada was scoreless until the seventh. An RBI double by Jacob Morgan over the center fielder's head scored Spencer Wall. But Kenton recovered to finish the game without allowing another run.

ADA - The host Ada softball team won a seesaw rivalry battle over county foe Kenton 9-8 Saturday afternoon in dramatic fashion.

In a hotly-contested game that featured seven lead changes and three ties, the Bulldogs got the last run in at the very end. 

Senior Leona Dalton drilled a home run over the fence in left-center field leading off the bottom of the seventh to give Ada the exciting victory.

Her game-ending, line-drive shot on a 3-1 pitch from Jill Burd cut through the wind for the fourth Lady Bulldog homer of the day.
