For those who didn’t get their fill of soccer during World Cup, ONU hosted a boy’s soccer camp last weekend. Ohio Northern is home to many soccer camps during the summer. There are several playing fields on the West Campus. A drive down Klingler Road or near the stadium will usually find a soccer camp going on in July and August. (Monty Siekerman photo)

Large machinery and piles of stone mean that another sewer project is underway in Ada.
A 36-inch storm sewer is being installed on campus near Heterick Library, McIntosh Center, and The Inn. A water retention basin will be dug south of The Inn. T
he project costs about $650,000 with the village paying for the engineering costs and testing. The university has agreed to pay for the rest. The current storm sewer is too small and is deteriorating due to age. Completion is set for Aug. 31.
