Freshman midfielder Levi King was named the OAC Men's Soccer Offensive Player of the Week recipient.

The freshman also registered a goal and nine total shots over the two-match week.
Junior linebacker David Haseleu has been tabbed the OAC Football Defensive Player of the Week.
In the football team's recent 49-16 triumph over OAC foe Wilmington, the junior notched his first career interception, which he returned for a 37-yard pick-six, in the fourth quarter.
Haseleu also recorded six total tackles in the contest, including a sack and a tackle for a loss.
ADA - In a key early-conference battle, Ada concludes the first half of the 2018 campaign Friday when it entertains tough Spencerville in the fourth Bulldog home game of the first five weeks.
A win over the defending conference champion would boost Ada's playoff and conference title hopes considerably, while a loss would damage both aspirations.
The surging Bearcats (3-1, 2-0 NWC) defeated Allen East this past Friday 27-15 to record their third straight victory. Spencerville has outscored its opposition 120-82 in four games.
They lost to unbeaten LCC 34-19 in their opener, but then beat Parkway, Perry and AE.

Bruce Marshall is a retired Elida school teacher. To this day, friends confuse them when they are spotted since they still look very much alike.
