ADA - Short-handed Ada will try to snap a two-game losing skid when they entertain league rival Delphos Jefferson Friday night in the Northwest Conference opener between a pair of 1-2 squads.

DJ crushed Stryker 47-0 on the road last Friday in week three for its first win. The Wildcats lost big to Shawnee (49-0) and Versailles (47-14) in their first two games.

Injury-plagued Ada is coming off of two losses after an opening victory over USV, but hopes to get off on the right foot in league play in week four.
