Marshall, Burkhart, Sizemore lead Ada girls soccer honorees
By Cort Reynolds
The Ada girls soccer team placed seven players on the All-North Central Ohio Soccer Association teams in voting recently conducted by the league coaches.
Second-year head coach Doug Dewese was voted North Central Ohio Soccer Association Coach of the Year.
He led Ada to a program record-tying seven wins and a 7-5-3 overall regular season record. The Bulldog girls were 2-2-1 in the rugged NCOSA to finish third out of six teams, believed to be the best league finish in team history.
Ada senior Ella Marshall repeated again as first team All-North Central Ohio Soccer Association for the fourth straight season.
She broke her own Ada program single-season record with 19 goals, and she also set the mark for career goals with 50.
