The Adena Warriors showed why they are going to be one of the favorites for the SVC boys basketball title chase this season with a 68-37 win at Southeastern to open conference play.
But the Warriors had a leg-up going into the game as the Panthers have six varsity players in quarantine due to COVID-19 contact tracing, forcing Southeastern to start three freshmen.
Adena took full advantage jumping to leads of 14-0, 20-2 and 34-4. It was 42-11 at halftime, but the Panthers showed more steady play in the third quarter, although still trailing by a margin of 57-24 after three points before the 68-37 final.
