Health strategies have recommended both an aspirin a day or an apple a day to keep the doctor away. What are the benefits and risks of these strategies in managing your health?
Depending on the variety and the geographic region, apples are in season from late July to early November. However, apples can be stored for long periods of time by controlling the atmosphere with a combination of temperature, humidity, oxygen and carbon dioxide. This is one reason why apples can be a fruit available year-round.
The Ada varsity wrestling program looks to be improved behind a deep sophomore class under veteran head coach/co-athletic director Eric Perkins.
Eight grapplers on the relatively youthful roster are returning lettermen. That experienced group will combine with several newcomers, including two girls, to form a potentially solid squad.
Ten of the 19 wrestlers on the roster are sophomores, with just one senior on the squad. Five juniors and three freshmen complete the roster.
