Ada loses to Grove on the road

COLUMBUS GROVE - After a close defensive first half, the Ada girls soccer team gave up five second-half goals and lost 6-0 at Columbus Grove Monday evening in a Northwest Conference match.

Grove junior Maddie Thompson netted the game's first goal in the 23rd minute, and the score stayed 1-0 to intermission.

Just 1:23 into the second half, CG junior Kenzie King scored to give the hosts a little breathing room up 2-0.
