WE CLEAN AFTER THEM C.J. Steinman, Clarence Weihrauch, Bob LaRueSPORTSCOACH OF THE YEAR H. Richard Watson proudly holds the SCIOTO VALLEY LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP trophy which his team brougnt to Ada . TOM PARKHILL, the scoring and ground-gaining leader in the SVL with 100 points and 1172 yards respectively, was given honorable mention on the Associated Press Class A offensive squad as quarterback. CHAMPIONQHIP YEAR 1961 The Bulldog Grid Squad completed an excellent season with a 7-1 over-all record, and a 3-0 record in league play which brought the SCIOTO VALLEY LEAGUE TITLE to Ada for the first time. The spirited team won its season opener by beating Wapak 2-0 but lost the second tilt to Kenton by a score of 8-6 where a few breaks would have helped the team on its way to a second win. After the Kenton game it was clear sailing all the way to the championship. The Ada defense held the opponents to 16 points while the offense racked up a total of 2 36 points for an average per game of 29. 5 points - a tribute to a hard working team. The teamwork displayed throughout the season was excellent, as coach H. Richard Watson expressed on several occasions. When the ALL-STAR list for the SCIOTO VALLEY LEAGUE was announced, Ada had cornered eleven of the positions, and Mr. Watson had been named Coach of the Year. Even tnough the team will lose seven senior lettermen, there will be returning lettermen to fill the blank spots and a determined squad to fight for the remaining positions. With this combination, we should have another fine season in 1962.

The scoring of the Bulldogs was well-balanced with Parkhill averaging more than 16 points per game, and Tracy Brown, Reams, and Rayl all with an average of over 11 points per game. Parkhill was chosen for the first string of the mythical All-Star Teams by the Lima News, Lima Citizen, and Toledo Blade. Next year's team will be minus several fine seniors, but the Bulldogs should be ready to again present a strong team to the fans.
