By Cort Reynolds

On September 14 the Ada High School girls soccer team lost a non-conference match to visiting Liberty-Benton 10-0 at War Memorial Park Stadium.

The Bulldogs fell to 4-3 this season with the defeat. The Eagles improved to 5-2-3 in with the lopsided victory.

"The biggest plus we take away from this is playing a full 80 minutes hard, regardless of the score," said first-year Ada head coach Doug Dewese.

"Liberty-Benton is one of the best teams in our area, so this was obviously a big hill to climb. The girls fought hard and that's all I can ask as a coach," he added.
