Bulldog girls basketball outscored by Falcons

By Cort Reynolds

ADA__The Ada High School girls basketball team built an early lead but eventually lost to hot-shooting guest Riverdale 60-45 on Tuesday, December 12.

Ada raced to a nine-point lead with 4:45 left in the first period. But Riverdale heated up its shooting and could do little wrong offensively in the middle quarters as they outscored the Bulldog girls, 32-16.

The Falcons ended the first half on an 18-5 run, then staved off a late Ada rally with an 11-0 spurt to seal the outcome.

The Bulldogs girls dropped to 3-4 overall with the non-league defeat. The Falcon girls improved to 2-4 after the victory.

Senior point guard Olivia Burkhart returned to the Ada lineup after missing one game due to illness, and led the Bulldogs with 18 points.
