LIMA - The visiting Ada tennis team lost 4-1 to Bath on a windy Wednesday evening.

The Bulldog netters dropped to 2-4 after the defeat. Bath improved to 2-2 with the victory.

"It was a closely-contested match," said Ada head coach Dexter Woods. "It was also the second match in a row that Miranda and Dexter faced twin brothers at first and second singles," he added.

Ada senior Miranda Wills dropped to 3-3 this spring with a close two-set loss to hard-hitting Bath freshman Daniel Bolon at first singles.    

"Miranda played a long, close match that could have gone either way," said Woods.
