First-year varsity girls soccer head coach Doug DeWese looks to field a much improved Ada High School squad this fall.

"Our goals are achievable, it is just a matter of finishing off games," said Dewese of the team's potential. "We have got to have the confidence that we can win. 

"Our goal is a 10-win season," he noted with optimism. That total would easily set a program record for wins in a season.
    
Nine letter winners and one senior return to the varsity roster in an attempt to achieve that lofty but reachable end. Ada fashioned a 2-10-1 overall record and went 0-5-1 in Northwest Conference action last fall.
