The Gator boys lost a close battle to the Sardines by a 208-190 score. Meanwhile, the Ada girls were beaten by a 317-122 count. Bluffton thus won the combined meet team score,  525-312.

The Ada boys and girls each fell to 1-1 in dual meets this summer with the losses.

The Ada Historical Society will meet at 6:30 p.m. on Monday, June 18 at the Ada Public Library.
