Host Ada started off strongly but could not sustain against a talented Leipsic squad, losing 49-14 in the Northwest Conference and home grid opener on a warm Friday night.

A large and enthusiastic crowd helped the Bulldogs commemorate their first game on the new synthetic turf with a touchdown drive on the opening possession of play.

Ada drove 68 yards to paydirt in 10 plays to take a 7-0 lead.

But Leipsic answered with 21 unanswered points to end the first half ahead by 14. The Vikings then roared to 28 more second-half points in succession to build a 49-7 cushion.

Ada added a late TD for the final score.

Even with this mixture, students commonly benefit from the increased structure school offers--it is built in socialization, cognitive exercise, physical activity, and provides opportunity for a routine sleep schedule. All students are encouraged to maintain these activities and structures outside of school year but oftentimes it dissipates slowly.
