WAYNESFIELD - The Ada baseball team went to Waynesfield-Goshen and came away with a convincing 7-2 victory in a non-conference battle Tuesday evening.

Ada led 3-2 after scoring single runs in each of the first three innings. The Bulldogs lengthened their lead to 5-2 with two runs in the top of the fourth frame.

In the sixth inning, the purple and gold added two more insurance runs to put the game out of reach.

WAYNESFIELD - The visiting Ada softball team blasted three home runs and banged out a season-high 18 hits to crush Waynesfield-Goshen 17-5 in a non-conference game Tuesday evening.

Ada improved to 5-1 with their fourth victory in a row. The explosive Lady Bulldog offense has plated 33 runs in their last two wins, and they scored in every inning at W-G.  

 

The Bulldogs jumped ahead with four runs in the first inning, then put it well out of reach with back-to-back five-run frames in the fifth and sixth.

Ada's Viva Maria: Featuring great Italian and American dinners

A good, made-from-scratch restaurant, beloved by locals and students

Icon Restaurant Review:
Viva Maria
124 E. Buckeye St., Ada
567-940-8482
Reviewer: Liz Gordon-Hancock

Before walking through the door of Viva Maria, all I knew about the place was that it was an Italian restaurant with big portions and huge support from both the local community and ONU campus crowd. My husband and I walked up to the restaurant around 8 p.m. on a weeknight.  

The restaurant is currently housed in the historic Ada Armory. Do not be fooled by the stark, industrial facade; this building houses a good, made-from-scratch Italian-American restaurant, beloved by both locals and students.
