ADA - Visiting Bluffton pulled away late from spunky local rival Ada to post a deceptive 60-39 Northwest Conference girls basketball win Thursday night.
The purple and gold cut Bluffton's lead to 40-33 early in the fourth quarter when sophomore guard Kirsten Poling drained a right side 17-footer.
But then the Lady Pirates reeled off 12 unanswered points to secure a 52-33 margin with just over three minutes left, sealing the verdict. Playing well in transition, Bluffton wore down short-handed Ada to win the fourth quarter by a 20-8 count.
