Ada's latest news

Bulldogs win third in a row with 44-0 victory on Friday

By Dusty Donley
For a third straight week, it was the superb play of the defense that propelled Ada to a league win as the host Bulldogs shut-out the Paulding Panthers 44-0.

The hard-nosed Ada defensive unit celebrated Homecoming by holding the Panthers to a measly 39 yards of total offense.

The victory extends Ada's win streak to three games, improving their record to 5-2 overall and 3-1 in the Northwest Conference.

Neither team found the end zone in the first quarter, but the next 12 minutes were a completely different story as the Bulldog offense racked up 21 points in the second quarter.
