By Cort Reynolds|
ADA - The host Ada baseball team beat county rival Hardin Northern 8-3 Monday evening to win its home opener handily.

Ada improved to 2-1 with the win, while HN fell to 0-1 with the loss.

Bulldog senior right-hander Connor Frazier hurled a complete game to secure the win, striking out eight and allowing just four hits in the process.

Senior first baseman Jaylin Burkhart led the Ada offense with three hits, two runs batted in and one run. Senior Ethan Hall contributed two hits and a pair of runs. Sophomore Brandon Hull added a hit and three RBI.

HN jumped in front with two runs in the top of the first inning. But Ada took the lead with three runs in the home half of the first frame and never relinquished it.
The Bulldogs tacked on three runs in the fourth and single runs in the fifth and sixth innings. Northern plated a run in the top of the seventh.

The Bulldog out-hit the Bears, 10-4.
