Bulldog girls soccer lanced by Knights

By Cort Reynolds

The Ada High School girls soccer team lost to visiting Crestview 4-1 Monday, September 12, in their Northwest Conference opener under the lights amid a light rain at War Memorial Park Stadium.

The Lady Bulldogs fell to 4-2 this season overall and 0-1 in NWC action with the defeat. The Knight girls improved to 3-4 and 1-1 in league play with the victory.

"A lot of miscues led to this result," said first-year Ada head coach Doug Dewese. "Our play was good and the girls were doing things we had been working on in practice, so I can't complain that the effort wasn't there.

"The girls played hard and made three mistakes which led to three goals," he explained. "You just can't dig a 3-1 hole at halftime and expect to come out of it."
