ADA -- This weekend is Championships Weekend at Ohio Northern, as the Polar Bear Volleyball, Men's Soccer and Women's Soccer teams will all compete for Ohio Athletic Conference Tournament championships Friday and Saturday.

The No. 8-ranked ONU volleyball squad will host the OAC Tournament Semifinals Friday night and the finals on Saturday at the ONU Sports Center.

On Saturday, Northern will host the OAC Men's Soccer Tournament finals at the ONU Soccer Field and the Polar Bears will play in the OAC Women's Soccer Tournament finals at Otterbein.

The three titles would give Ohio Northern teams six Conference championships this fall, as the ONU Men's and Women's Cross Country teams swept their OAC titles last weekend at Marietta and the ONU Volleyball team has already secured the OAC Regular Season title.
