Hall of Fame
Frank Adams is originally from Atlanta, Georgia. Growing up, playing college basketball was always in his plans, and he worked extremely hard throughout high school to achieve this goal. Adams decided to enroll at YHC because he believed he would have the most opportunity to become the player he envisioned himself becoming. Adams helped YHC restart its men's basketball program in 2010, and he played for the Mountain Lions from 2010-2013. The ability to start and build something from the ground up with a group of guys with the same intent and passion for the game stood out to him.
In three seasons with the Mountain Lions, Adams scored 1,573 points, grabbed 522 rebounds, and had 183 assists and 124 steals in 78 games. He is ranked first in YHC record books in scoring average; second in scoring, field goals, and free throws; third in minutes played; fourth in rebounding; and sixth in assists and steals.
Adams was named Peach Belt Conference Player of the Week and named to the All-PBC Third Team in 2013. He played his final season at Florida Southern College, where he scored 323 points and grabbed 139 rebounds in 31 games as the Mocs advanced to the NCAA Division II South Regional.
During his three years at YHC, Adams studied biology and took courses from what was set to become the kinesiology program. He transferred to Florida Southern to earn a Bachelor of Science in Athletic Training. Adams continued to graduate school, where he practiced as an athletic trainer while serving as a graduate assistant for Abilene Christian University. There, he earned a Master of Education in Kinesiology.
Adams now resides in Phoenix, Arizona, where he works as an assistant athletic trainer for the NBA's Phoenix Suns. Since his early days of studying to become an athletic trainer, it was his goal to work in the NBA, and he enjoys every second of it.
