Ohio Governor Mike DeWine and Dr. Amy Action, Director of the Ohio Department of Health announced that there are three confirmed cases of COVID-19 in Ohio, all in Cuyahoga County.
Governor DeWine also declared a State of Emergency, which he described as a necessary legal step that enables government to do what is necessary to respond quickly, and also makes it easier to procure needed supplies.
According to Allen County Health Commissioner Kathy Luhn, “This is what we have expected. We continue to work with our local and state partners to protect our community.”

Ada HS grad and ONU freshman Chase Sumner was a late addition to the 180-man field for the 2020 NCAA Division III Wrestling Championships March 13-14 at Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
Sumner received a bid on Monday after a Central Regional qualifier from his 149-pound weight class became injured and could not compete.
Per NCAA rules, the fourth place finisher from the same region as the injured wrestler assumes that spot in the tournament.
Sumner joins ONU senior Seth Transue (Plain City/Jerome) and junior Cash Thompson (Lake Odessa, Mich./Lakewood) as Polar Bears at the Championships.
The Ada Kiwanis Club began a yearly tradition in the late winter of 1952 by sponsoring a Pancake and Sausage Day at the American Legion Hall in downtown Ada. That tradition has continued for the past 67 years.
