Ada's latest news

By Cort Reynolds

ADA - Host Ada ran out to a big early lead and cruised to a 57-36 victory over winless Perry in non-league girls basketball action Tuesday night.

 

The purple and gold improved to 3-9 with the lopsided win, while the undersized Lady Commodores fell to 0-7 after the defeat.

 

Ada led 8-0 out of the gate and later put the game out of reach with a 13-0 run to start the second half.

 

"It was good to get a W again, I am happy for the girls," said fourth-year Ada head coach Bill Taflinger. "We needed that, especially after Saturday's loss to Kenton.

 

"I was hoping for a good start and we got it."

All three members are ONU law grads

By Monty Siekerman
The Third District Court of Appeals, consisting of three judges who are all ONU law graduates, heard oral arguments in a criminal case and a civil case out of Hancock County when they met at the law school today (Tuesday).
