Kline's Napa won the trophy, over a very strong contender Ohio Northern Unversity Lions team consisting of five ONU student bowlers.

Trevor Neuenschwander from the ONU team scored a 212 for the high game of the night.

Say "Hello," to Alice in Hardwareland.

Keith and Kathy Wire hold Alice, their 16-year-old dog who has been a fixture of sorts for many years at the Ada business they own, Keith’s Hardware.

Many years ago, Alice was abandoned at the store. The Wires tried to find the owners without success, so they took her in.

Alice has been the store’s mascot for a long time.
