ADA __ The Ada High School girls soccer team lost 5-0 to visiting Liberty-Benton in a key North Central Ohio Soccer Association contest Wednesday night, September 18, at War Memorial Stadium.
The purple and gold fell to 6-5 overall and 0-3 in NCOSA play with the defeat.
The first-place Eagle girls improved to 6-3-1 overall and 3-0 in NCOSA action after the victory.
“We couldn’t build much offense,” said Ada head coach Doug Dewese. “We let in two really silly goals.
“It was a better night than in years past for our girls (against L-B), but I also think we left too much on the table,” he added.
Ada's Civil War Monument at the Depot Park--a cannon on a stone base enscribed "Lest We Forget - In Memory of Our Soldiers, 1961-1865" has been cleaned of many years of rust and weathering.
Surface Solution Painting power-washed the granite base and will begin painting the seacoast cannon, forged in 1859 at the historic Tredegar Iron Works in Richmond, Va.
The decommissioned cannon was used during the Civil War in Fort Mifflin, Penn., and arrived in Ada in 1903.
For more details about the cannon and historical facts and video about the Civil War, visit the Community Bulletin Board at the Ada Depot Park.
