The Ada High School quiz bowl team ran it overall match record to 39-4 by winning this year's Hardin County Invitational Quiz Bowl.  The annual event features all six Hardin County Schools and two schools invited from Hancock County.

The Bulldogs opened the evening with convincing wins over Upper Scioto Valley, Liberty Benton and Cory Rawson.  Following the dinner break, Ada resumed its domination by racking up wins against  Hardin Northern and Kenton.  Ada's 5-0 record earned a playoff for the championship against a very tough Riverdale squad.

What Spring?

Posted by Monty Siekerman on Wednesday, March 21, 2018

Ken Collins’ camera caught some snow scenes this morning after a 3-inch snow fell on the first day of Spring. Slippery roads early this morning caused school cancellation. Ken’s photos catch a few robins hunkering down, probably wishing they stayed longer in the South. In the last photo the blue jay seems to be saying, “Why all the fuss, I live here year round.” Village employees and ONU personnel were out early clearing roadways and sidewalks.
