Ada to host Paulding Fri

ADA - The Ada football team will try to bounce back from a disappointing loss at Crestview when they host last-place Paulding in a Northwest Conference must-win contest Friday.

 

Last weekend's 49-21 defeat at Crestview all but eliminated the Bulldogs from realistic NWC title contention. Ada trails league leader Spencerville (4-0) by two full games with three left, and is also a game behind Delphos Jefferson and Crestview (each 3-1).

 

"We didn't play very well," said Ada fifth-year head coach Bob Olwin (31-21) of the loss at Crestview. "Their kids made some plays, we didn't play fast and we looked tentative tackling."

Both offenses put on a first half show in Covoy last Friday night, but stingy Crestview defense kept Ada out of the end zone in the second half, propelling the Knights to a 49-21 victory.  The tough conference loss drops the Bulldogs to 2-2 in the NWC and 4-3 overall.

The Knights opened the first quarter scoring when Crestview quarterback Drew Kline found Derick Dealey for a 2-yard touchdown.  Dylan Hicks’ extra point was good, putting the Knights in front 7-0 with 7:24 remaining in the quarter.

"We knew going into the race that most of our times would not be as fast as Kalida, given the slippery finish along the track in front of the grandstands.
