Provided by Ohio Northern University

In the spirit of the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day of Service, Ohio Northern University students came together this week to give back to their community, focusing on those who have given so much throughout their lives—the elderly.

“What better way to give back than to support those who have sacrificed and contributed throughout their lives?” said John Copes, IV, accounting and marketing major, AmeriCorps member, and coordinator of ONU’s Student Resource Center.

Students assembled and hand-delivered more than 90 care packages for residents of Vancrest of Ada, a local assisted living and elderly care home, brightening their day with thoughtful gifts and personal connections.

ARLINGTON - The visiting Ada High School girls basketball team started well but went cold and lost 40-27 to Arlington in a defensive Blanchard Valley Conference battle Thursday, January 30.

The Bulldog record dropped to 2-16 overall and 0-8 in the BVC after the road defeat. Arlington improved to 7-11 overall and 2-6 in BVC play with the victory.  

“In the first half we scored quite a bit by breaking their press,” said Ada head coach Zach Ricker. “In the second half, they played halfcourt man defense and pressured the ball, and didn’t allow anything easy.”
