Bulldog football hopes to spoil AE outright title hopes, make playoffs

Heated rivalry features storied past

By Cort Reynolds

On October 21, the annual Ada/Allen East backyard rivalry will be renewed at Harrod's Goodwin Field as the finale to the 2022 regular season–with a lot riding on the contest.

League-leading AE (8-1, 6-0 NWC) is cresting on a six-game win streak after defeating Leipsic 17-8 in Harrod last Friday to clinch at least a share of the Northwest Conference crown. 

The Mustangs are hoping for another deep playoff run, while Ada is hoping to make it to the expanded postseason for the first time since 2017.
