This Week In Ada

The weekend started with rain and ended with a beautiful Sunday. On Saturday the village of Ada had their annual Harvest and Herb festival. Main street was blocked off, and the road was lined with vendors. The rain started early in the morning, but it wasn’t long before the sun overcame the clouds. The festival was an all day event. Once the festival ended the community members started to make their way over to Dial Roberson Stadium for the Polar Bear football game.

The Polar Bears lost their first night game to Baldwin Wallace (BW) by 1-point Saturday.  The game started with Baldwin Wallace jumping to a 14-0 start, but it wasn’t long before the Polar Bears rallied.  The game was back and fourth. ONU would score then Baldwin Wallace would score. In the final minutes ONU had the chance to go up by two until starting kicker Andrew Dimario missed a field goal. From there the Polar Bears had two time outs left. They needed to stop the Baldwin Wallace offense, but could not. BW continued to get first downs ultimately being able to run the clock down to zero with a 1-point lead. The final score was 28 -27.

The night was not all bad though. Many fans were in attendance, and having a good time. The next night game is on Halloween, and is sure to be a good time.
