Week 2 of district play for both of these ball clubs and both are coming off of different weeks. Larue County enters 5-0 after beating Butler County 41-14 last week (41-0 at half btw), while Adair is 4-1 but had their first wake up call last week as they were down 42-7 at half to Glasgow and the final score ended up just that. Larue has been a balanced football team this year with QB Brady Abell, a solid RB, and 2 big time receivers in Colvin and B. McDowell. Adair is led by their dual threat QB Braxton Mckinney and RB Callum Darnell who both have been explosive this season. They key in this one will be which team can slow down the others offense as both want to play with tempo and put up points.

Adair survives 26-21. This game came down to the wire as McCreary had a pass picked off in the end zone as time expired. McCreary's rushing attack bothered Adair all night long, while Adair had numerous explosive plays and multiple called back do to penalties. Adair's RB had 115 yds rushing but easily could have had over 200 if not for the penalties. Adair now improves to 4-0 and will head to 4-0 Glasgow next week.

Adair County comes in at 3-0 after throttling Casey County 69-18 last week, while McCreary Central put up a big win over Clinton County to move to 2-1. These teams met last season where McCreary came away with the win in a tight contest. The question will be does Adair's high powered offense play like it did in 2 of the first 3 games or will we see McCreary be able to slow them down and control tempo like Metcalfe Co. did holding them to 14 points.

Adair hosts Mccreary Central next week, they only defeated Casey County 36-22 the previous week, so another good chance for a win. So a very good chance them and Glasgow are both 4-0 when they meet up.

The Indians are now 3-0 in the Cameron Dukes era and the offense exploded tonight. This game was 13-12 at one point but then Adair scored 42 straight points. Callum Darnell led the Indians with I believe 7 touchdowns which pretty sure could be a program record. As far as I know this is also the second most points ever scored by an Adair team. The most being in 2014 when the Indians scored 74.

Adair comes in 2-0 to start the Cameron Dukes era with wins over Russell County and Metcalfe County. Casey enters 0-2, but was competitive last week with Mccreary Central. Adair won this one pretty easily last year, but this seems to be an improved Casey County team so expect it to be more competitive.

It was not pretty in Edmonton tonight but Adair survives after being down 6-0 majority of the game. Metcalfe had the ball 3 times at Adairs red zone but only came away with 6 points. Adair is now 2-0 in the Cameron Dukes era and will host Casey County next week looking to win a 3rd straight.

The Cameron Dukes era as head coach started with a bang as the Indians rolled over rival Russell County tonight. Dukes brought a more high powered style offense and QB Braxton Mckinney was excellent going 16-25 for 193 yards. Callum Darnell added over 100 yards on the ground as well as a 100 yard INT return for a TD. Adair will head to Metcalfe County next week looking to start 2-0.

The Indians and Lakers square off in their annual rivalry game to start the season with both coming off of 3-8 seasons. Russell County won this contest last year 32-9, though it was a closer game than the score indicated. Adair County brings in a new 1st time head coach in former Lindsey Wilson National Champion QB Cameron Dukes who takes over and will look to bring a more balanced offensive attack. The Indians had many injuries to QB last year but junior Braxton Mckinney coming off of a knee injury will be the starter, and RB Callum Darnell returns in the back field and will carry a lot of the load. Russell County returns Tanner Stringer at QB who was sensational last season in both the run and pass game from the QB position.

Still without a head coach and did not have a summer ball schedule. Know of at least 1 coach who turned this down.

Right now that district is down besides North Hardin. Etown has some young talent but they don't have elite talent like a few years back. John Hardin is down also talent wise. The chance to make region is there for the next coach.

Caverna is now filled. Assistant coach Jason Scott has taken over as head coach.

Really good hire by Cumberland County. Brockman always did well winning with lesser talent at Metcalfe.

Have heard a former 5th region head coach in the last 5 years as a name involved in this one.
