WAYNESFIELD - The Ada volleyball team tipped off its 2016 campaign with a
convincing sweep of non-league local rivals Waynesfield-Goshen and
Cory-Rawson in a tri-match Saturday.

The matches were originally scheduled to be played at Ada, but had to be
moved to W-G since re-surfacing of the Bulldog varsity gym floor is still
being completed.

The Lady Bulldogs (2-0) stomped the host Tigers first 25-6, 25-16. Junior
hitter Melina Woods collected six kills, eight digs and served three aces.
