The snow-capped mountains of Ada. See the skier? Actually, this is just a tall pile of rocks to be used for the Willeke Street project. Stones are covered in this morning’s snow. The Ada Icon has readers from all 50 states each month, so we might need to explain to those who have never been here that Ada is hill-less, very much so...flat but good for growing corn.

Tune into WONB 94.9 FM on Friday at 8:30 a.m. to hear Ada senior Chase Sumner talk about his commitment to wrestle and continue his education at the University of Pittsburgh next year.

On this week’s edition of ‘The Pep Talk’ with Grant Pepper, Sumner discussed why he chose Pitt, as he had offers from other Div. I schools like Buffalo to consider as well.

“They’re a young program so they can’t go anywhere but up. I love the coaching staff, I love the campus down there, just about everything,” Sumner said. “And my biggest thing was, how high is my ceiling? What’s my full potential? And I feel like I can reach that the most at Pitt.”
