VAN WERT - The Ada cross country teams ran in the unseasonable heat of the Van Wert Invitational Saturday morning, but the abnormally high temperatures did not hinder the short-handed boys squad.

 

Reece Evans finished the 3.1-mile course in 20:28 to pace the Bulldog boys. Michael Crouse posted a time of 20:37 and Ian

Dellifield crossed the finish line in 26:28.

 

"As for the Ada girls heat played a major factor, resulting in some of their slowest times of the season," said Bulldog coach Josh Klein.
