SPENCERVILLE - The Ada boys cross country team finished a solid 10th out of 16 teams in the small school division at the Spencerville Invitational on a wet Saturday morning.
The Bulldogs finished ahead of all the other Northwest Conference schools in both divisions. Ada senior Miguel Jordan claimed a ninth-place finish, passing three people in the last 200 yards to post the best purple and gold individual showing.
Jordan covered the wet 3.1-mile course in 19:05.6.
"It was a wet meet," said Ada head coach Josh Klein. "Everyone left covered in mud and feeling like they showered in their uniforms.
Ada students tried hula hooping during a pep rally at the school on Friday, but despite their efforts the Bulldogs lost at Lima Central Catholic on Saturday. The score: LCC 43, Ada 20.
