Basketball: Indians defeat Mustangs, host Somerset next By Trey Stephens, Staff Writer On Saturday, December 27, 2025, the Adair County Indians defeated the Muhlenberg County Mustangs 78-56 in the Bethlehem Christmas Classic. The Tribe got rolling quickly, going ahead 24-9 by the end of the first quarter and 43-22 by halftime. The Indians were led in scoring by senior Landon Blakey with 25, followed by Tylin George with 16. Dawson Gilbert and Samuel Feese also scored in double figures, posting 12 and 10 respectively. The Tribe out-rebounded the Mustangs 34 to 18. John Shehan led the team in rebounds with 9, followed be Blakey, who pulled down 8. The team as a whole shot the ball well, going 59% from the floor and 29% from three point range. A low point on an otherwise good night for the Indians was when Tylin George was called for an elevated foul in the second half, which saw him head to bench for the rest of the game. Many unverified reports state he will serve a two-game suspension for this foul, which would see him miss Adair County's home matchups against Somerset and Taylor County this upcoming week. With or without star transfer George, the team will now set their sights on a home game with Somerset (5-3). Tipoff is scheduled for 3:30pmCT on Monday, December 29, 2025, in John Burr Memorial Gymnasium, 526 Indian Drive, Columbia, KY.

Basketball: Lady Indians fall to Boyd Co., face Fleming next By Trey Stephens, Staff Writer On Sunday, December 28, 2025 the Adair County Lady Indians Varsity Basketball team fell 47-34 to the Boyd County Lady Lions in their second game in the Kelly Holiday Classic at Bourbon County High School. The Lady Indians struggled to get the ball through the hoop the entirety of the game, despite some good looks. Coming into this game, the Lady Lions were averaging over 67 points per game and had yet to be held to less than 60 in a game. Kinzlee Akin was named Player of the Game for Adair County with a team-leading 15 points, followed by Reese Bardin with 10. Ila Loy, Ella Brown, and Anika Jennings rounded out the scoring for the Lady Indians with five, two, and two respectively. The team was out-scored consistently from the beginning with a 12-8 deficit after the first quarter, going to 14-22 by halftime and 23-33 by the end of the third quarter. Boyd County is a very talented team with an explosive offense, and Adair County should take pride in holding them to just 47 points. Adair County will look to keep up the same defensive intensity, and perhaps combine it with a few more made baskets, as they face Fleming County (6-2) in the third and final day of the Kelly Holiday Classic. The Lady Panthers of Fleming County come off a 73-55 loss to Lyon County in their second game in the Kelly Holiday Classic. Tip off is scheduled for 3:30pmCT on Monday, December 29, 2025, back at Bourbon County High School in beautiful Paris, KY. 2025-12-29 09:58:03 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Sports Birthdays and Anniversaries for December 29 Happy Birthday, Alan Godsey (1996) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Angie Hinkle (1978) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Blake Corbin | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Brody Burton | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Catherine Robinson Caldwell (1929) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Chase Burris | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Connie Slattery | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Jimmy Roberts | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Johnston Hunter Stotts (2009) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Karen Murphy | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Lori C.
