Many basketballs were raffled off to win pizzas at the Teen Dating Violence Awareness event during the JV and varsity boys basketball games in Ada on Saturday evening.

Here, Kylie Guagenti gathers the balls together.

Another set of mini balls were tossed out to the crowd at halftime of the varsity game. Players for both teams wore orange socks, which is the group's color.

Border patrol agents in Ada?

Yes - at the ONU career fair
Posted by Fred Steiner on Monday, January 30, 2017

When I told friends that I had met two border patrol agents in Ada, the response was, "Why are they in Ada?"

The agents were at the ONU career fair to recruit more agents: 1,200 are needed immediately and perhaps many thousand more will be hired, if President Trump's plans come to fruition...and the pay is good.

Starting salaries are about $40,000, including overtime and weekend pay. After only four years, agents can look for $90,000 to $100,000 annually.

You don't have to be a college graduate to be hired.
