Deep Bulldog softball team looks to contend for BVC title–and more

By Cort Reynolds

The talented and deep Ada High School softball team will shoot for a league title as first-year members of the Blanchard Valley Conference in 2025. 

The school’s second district title and beyond is also within the team’s grasp due to an experienced and skilled senior group, as well as some promising young players.

The Bulldogs finished second in the Northwest Conference each of the last two seasons, and would have been co-favorites for the elusive league crown with defending NWC champion Lincolnview this spring.
