ADA - The homestanding Ada softball team run-ruled Cory-Rawson 13-2 in a makeup non-league contest Wednesday evening in the final home game of 2021.

The Lady Bulldog record improved to 12-11 with the five-inning win. The Hornet girls fell to 0-15 with the defeat.

"We tried to get everyone playing time," said Bulldog head coach Rebecca Dicke. "We wanted to dust the rust off, and work on baserunning," she added.     

Ada tallied a run in the top of the first inning and never trailed. Senior Tori Green walked, stole second and third base, then sped home on a passed ball.
