ADA — The Ohio Northern men's basketball team ended its 2019-20 season on a three-game winning streak.

Fifth-year head coach Rich Bensman hopes to use that momentum as his young and talented squad hits the floor in a 12-game, covid-19 shortened 2021 campaign this January.

Bensman welcomes back three starters and nine lettermen back from last year's squad that went 9-16 overall and was 5-13 in the Ohio Athletic Conference.

Northern returns its top three scorers and its top rebounder, but with no seniors and only one junior it will be a young and experienced group on the floor.

RIDGEWAY - The Ada girls basketball team got hot late but lost a cold-shooting 42-40 non-league contest at county rival Ridgemont Monday evening.

Both teams shot well under 40 percent from the field in the hard-fought battle.

The Lady Bulldog record fell to 3-10 with the tough loss, while the Lady Golden Gophers evened their mark at 7-7 after the win.

"We shot terrible," said Ada third-year head coach Morgan Bass. 

The Lady Bulldogs trailed 40-28 with 2:43 remaining to play, yet put on a late rally that came up just short. 

Freshman guard Olivia Burkhart splashed a triple to ignite a 12-2 Ada closing run.
