FOSTORIA - The offense for the visiting Ada softball team came to life as they defeated Fostoria 9-6 in non-conference action Tuesday evening.
"Our bats kind of woke up with 14 hits," said Ada head coach Rebecca Dicke. "Our defense was a little tighter, although we still made a few errors and a couple of mental errors.
"All in all, it was a competitive game. We kept putting the ball in play and hopefully we can continue to do that," she added.
The Lady Bulldog record improved to 9-8 overall with the win that snapped a four-game loss slide. The Redwomen fell to 3-8 with the defeat.
