Football: Indians face Raiders at Hart Co. By Trey Stephens, Staff Writer The Adair County Indians Football team is back in action at 7pmCT on Friday, October, 3, 2025, as they travel to face the Hart County Raiders (4-2). The Tribe comes off a narrow loss to LaRue County last week. The Raiders fell 35-6 to the Glasgow Scotties in their last game. The Raiders are certainly a run-first team. They have a total of 1799 rushing yards this season, compared to just 553 passing yards. Specific rushers for the Indians to keep an eye on would be seniors Kannan Allen and Jake Crump, who led Hart County in rushing yards with 631 yards and 507 respectively. Crump also leads Hart County on defense, with 70 tackles. The Indians will seek to have a good outing before getting to rest up on a bye next week. If you can make the trip to Munfordville on Friday, please come out and support your Indians! Radier Stadium is located at 1014 S. Dixie Hwy., Munfordville, KY. 2025-10-03 11:34:05 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Sports
