Allen East racked up 401 yards of total offense, but ultimately it was five turnovers that sealed their fate as the Mustangs lost to the Ada Bulldogs for the 11th straight time, 21-6.

With the win, the Bulldogs are propelled back into post season play for the ninth time in the past 10 seasons. Ada finished their 2015 regular season gridiron campaign with a 6-4 overall record, while going 4-3 in the Northwest Conference.
