Basketball: Adair County back in action

By Trey Stephens, Staff Writer

Adair County Basketball is back! The Indians travel to Clay County today, Monday, June 2, 2025, to kick off the 2025 Summer ball season. The Tribe will take on Knott County Central at 5pmET and then Bell County at 6pmET, both at Bobby Keith Gymnasium on the campus of Clay County High School, 415 Clay County High Rd, Manchester, KY. (Note: we were unable to confirm game times, due to time zone differences. We've assumed Easter Daylight Time.)

These matchups will be a big indicator of where Adair County is after a mass exodus of graduating seniors from last year's squad.

The first game against Knott County Central is against a Patriots team that went 19-12 last season and fell in the first round of the 14th region tournament against a Hazard team that went 29-3. The Patriots graduated only 26% of their scoring from last year's post season and they should sport a very strong senior class for this year's squad led by Talan Osborne and Chance Amburgey.

The second matchup, against the Bell County Bobcats, features another program coming off a very strong year, going 26-7 last season and going out to South Laurel in the 13th region tournament. The Bobcats also did not graduate a ton of their scoring from last year, only losing 18% of their production from last year's postseason to graduation. Bell County should return last year's sophomore standout Ethan Buell as a junior for this year, slowing down his scoring will be a challenge for Adair County.

The Indians JV will play at the same time as varsity, but will be playing their games at Manchester Elementary, 128 Richmond Rd., Manchester, KY.
