On May 28, the first annual Ada varsity baseball and softball "Strike Out Cancer" benefit game raised $2,516.50. That total is expected to rise with another round of t-shirt sales.

Spencer Wall slugged three homers while Roman Snyder drilled two long balls, the second of which broke a 13-13 tie in the seventh inning. Kadin Phipps launched two sky-high home runs over the left field fence. Zach Neiswander and Tyler Jameson also went deep once each.
