The Ada boys soccer team kicked off its season with a 1-1 tie at Tiffin Columbian Saturday.
Freshman Logan Jolliff netted the lone Bulldog goal. Sophomore Colton Long made four saves in his goalkeeping debut for Ada.
"I think we dominated possession and had more shots on goal, but their keeper was quite good," said Ada head coach Jason Okuly. "We just couldn't find the back of the net."
The Bulldog boys travel to New Knoxville Monday, August 23 for a 5:30 p.m. match. The Bulldogs then visit Old Fort Thursday, August 26 at 5:30 p.m.
Six runners comprise the youthful Ada cross country roster this fall.
Sixth-year head coach Josh Klein has four boys and two girls out for the squad this season.
"We are going to try and have fun with the team this year and work to get our times down," said Klein. "We have a really young team, and Riley (Ferguson) is our most experienced runner."
Ada lost several key runners from last season to graduation and non-returnees, but three lettermen came back.
Host Waynesfield-Goshen pulled away from scrappy Ada with a big second half to win their non-league football season opener 42-12 Friday night at Tiger Field.
The deeper Tigers separated from a 14-6 halftime lead with 28 unanswered second half points to win, but it was not as lopsided as the final score indicates.
"I don't think the final scoreboard reflects how the game was played," said W-G head coach Shane Wireman. "It was a very hard-fought game. Ada is very physical up front, and has a couple of bruisers at running back."
