The Ada Exempted Village School District issued the following statement on Wednesday, April 26 regarding its athletic conference affiliation:

The Ada Exempted Village School Board voted to accept the invitation to join the Blanchard Valley Conference. 

We want to express our appreciation to the Northwest Conference and all member schools for their patience throughout this process. 

While we appreciate the rivalries and longstanding traditions we were able to establish in the NWC, we are excited to begin a new chapter as a member of the BVC.
