The Ada High School girls soccer team won their season opener decisively 9-0 over Lima Senior Friday evening at Spartan Stadium.
The Lady Bulldog kickers built a sizeable 7-0 lead by halftime and cruised to victory in the successful debut of their new head coach.
"We played tough and opened up quick with a fast goal by Ella Marshall," said first-year Ada mentor Doug Dewese.
"It was a good season-opener to build confidence, but we still have work to do," he said. "The second half gave us an opportunity to play players at different positions and give other girls opportunities to score.

He died Sunday at age 88 following the deaths of Celtic legend teammates Tom Heinsohn, John Havlicek and Sam Jones in recent years. Only the almost 94 year old Bob Cousy has outlived them all.
