Amid miserable weather conditions, visiting Lima Central Catholic traveled to War Memorial Stadium Friday night and delivered Ada its second shut-out in as many weeks as the Thunderbirds defeated the Bulldogs 27-0. The non-league loss ends Ada's season at (5-5) and eliminates them from playoff contention for the first time in nine years.

The Ada Bulldog offense was held scoreless for the second time this season as the visiting Delphos Jefferson Wildcats traveled to War Memorial Stadium and got a hard fought, 10-0 Northwest Conference victory. The loss drops Ada to (5-4) overall and (4-3) in the conference, ending any shot the Bulldogs had at a
piece of the NWC Championship.
Both offenses failed to find the end zone in the first half as Wildcat kicker Kurt Wollenhaupt's 31-yard field goal late in the second quarter were the only points either team could muster before the halftime intermission.
