ANGOLA, Ind.—Clutch shots from sophomore Abi Akamine (Lahaina, Hawaii/Lahainaluna) and freshman Mackenzie Suprano (Cutler/Waterford) helped the Ohio Northern women's basketball team secure a 53-50 victory over No. 8 Trine (Ind.) on Saturday at the MTI Center.
The Ada varsity wrestling program looks to be improved behind a deep sophomore class under veteran head coach/co-athletic director Eric Perkins.
Eight grapplers on the relatively youthful roster are returning lettermen. That experienced group will combine with several newcomers, including two girls, to form a potentially solid squad.
Ten of the 19 wrestlers on the roster are sophomores, with just one senior on the squad. Five juniors and three freshmen complete the roster.
The Ada High School girls basketball team defeated visiting county rival Hardin Northern 39-25 behind a fourth quarter defensive stand in a hard-fought matchup Tuesday night, November 29.
Ada led 25-23 heading to the fourth period, and held Northern without a field goal in the final quarter to win going away.
The Bulldogs improved to 1-2 with their first victory, while HN fell to 1-1 with the non-league defeat.
The Polar Bears sank just one field goal in the final 10 minutes against the stingy Ada defense.
Soccer players are invited to play Futsal in Harrod beginning January 15.
Coach Todd Jennings from Allen East High School is starting a Futsal league for players in grades K-12. Play will be held at the Harrod Event Center (old school building) on Sunday afternoons.
Futsal is small-sided game on a small field with small goals, usually 3v3 up to 6v6. These games will be on a basketball court. Typically there aren't goalies either.
Indoor soccer shoes or tennis shoes will work fine. You will need shin guards, water, and your own ball. Age appropriate Futsal balls will be provided for the game sessions.
