Park Tudor won a sectional title under Adams in 2022-23, then went 20-6 the following year won a regional title. The Panthers nearly upset Jack Benter and Brownstown Central in semistate, falling by one point. When Adams took over in 2018, the program was coming off an 8-16 season and still not far removed from the mess left two years earlier by former coach Kyle Cox, who served nine years in federal prison for coercing an underage student into exchanging sexually explicit messages.

“My goal at the beginning of taking the Park Tudor job was to leave it in a better place when I left and we have done that,” Adams said. Park Tudor was 14-9 last season and reached the Marion County Tournament semifinals. Adams was an assistant coach at Brebeuf Jesuit, Cathedral and Marian University prior to taking the position at Park Tudor.
