Bulldog boys soccer returns experience, scoring punch

By Cort Reynolds

The 2022 Ada High School boys soccer team returns nine starters and 14 lettermen, including their top two goal scorers, which could lead to a successful fall campaign.

Last year's squad finished 7-8-3 overall and 1-2-1 in the Northwest Conference, good for fourth place in the league.  

The purple and gold kickers also ended up fifth in the tough North Central Ohio Soccer Association with a 1-4 mark.  

The 2022 Bulldogs will operate out of a 4-1-3-2 formation.
