The Bluffton High School football team seeks to stay undefeated atop the Northwest Conference when they invade War Memorial Stadium for their last league battle at Ada Friday night, September 22.
The Bulldogs are joining the Blanchard Valley Conference next season after being a NWC member since 1963.
Ada (2-3, 0-2 NWC) has lost two in a row, including a 55-24 defeat to undefeated Leipsic last Friday in a game that they trailed just 28-24 in the third period.
The potent Pirates improved to 5-0 overall and 2-0 in the NWC with a 56-0 blowout win over Spencerville last Friday.
The Pirates have outscored their opponents 231-28 this season. Bluffton leads the NWC in points scored per game (46.2), and is also first in least points allowed per contest (5.4.).
