Non-conference schedule unveiled for UE men’s basketball

0

Aces open the regular season with two home games 

EVANSVILLE, Ind. – Featuring a unique balance that will provide important experience heading into the Missouri Valley Conference portion of the schedule, the University of Evansville men’s basketball program unveiled its 2023 non-conference slate.

One exhibition contest will take place when UE welcomes Wabash College on Oct. 28.  Just as they did last season, the Purple Aces open up regular-season play against Miami Ohio.  The opener is set for Monday, Nov. 6 at the Ford Center.  Head coach David Ragland opened his UE tenure with a 78-74 road win over the RedHawks in 2022.  Another home game is on tap on Nov. 9 when Evansville plays host to a non-Division I opponent to be named.

Southeast Missouri State will mark the first road game of the year.  UE makes the trek to Cape Girardeau on Nov. 15.  The Aces have won nine of the last 12 games against SEMO.  On the 18th, the Aces are back home to face Ball State.  The Cardinals have not win a road game at Evansville since 1954, dropping 20-consecutive games.

With the cancellation of the Las Vegas Holiday Classic, UE will now take part in a multi-team event (MTE) hosted by Chattanooga.  Friday, Nov. 24 will see the Aces face the Mocs before the final game of the weekend pits UE against SEMO on the 25th.

For the first time in program history, Evansville will take on Brigham Young University.  The road game in Provo, Utah is set for Dec. 5.  The Cougars have won at least 19 games every year since the 2016-17 campaign.  BYU is set for its first season with the Big 12 Conference.  December 16 will see the Aces travel to Louisville to face Bellarmine.  The squads met at the Ford Center last season with UE taking a 73-61 victory on Dec. 21.

Pre-Christmas action wraps up with a pair of home games.  On the 18th, Evansville hosts UT Martin before welcoming Tennessee Tech two days later.  UE has combined to go 23-5 against the two programs.  The month of December comes to a close when the Aces travel to Cincinnati on the 30th.  The Bearcats mark the second Big 12 team that UE will face in 2023 and is the second time in three years that Evansville treks to UC.  The squads met on Nov. 9, 2021 for the first duel between the programs in 31 years.

Skender’s homer propels Otters’ to win

0

Washington, PA. – Ethan Skender hit a go-ahead two-run home run in the ninth inning and the Evansville Otters stunned the Washington Wild Things in a 6-5 win Sunday evening at Wild Things Park.

Trailing 5-4 entering the ninth inning, Jomar Reyes led off reaching on an error by the Wild Things’ shortstop.

Skender followed by blasting a two-run homer over the left field wall to give the Otters the lead.

Jake Polancic sent the Wild Things down in order in the bottom of the ninth to secure the win.

Evansville wins their second straight road series and finishes 4-2 on the six-game road swing.

The Otters took an early lead on a Noah Myers’ solo home run in the third inning – his third home run of the week.

Evansville added to the lead in the sixth inning. Myers led off with a walk and stole both second and third base.

Jeffrey Baez knocked him home with a single. Jomar Reyes then later followed with an RBI hit to make it 4-0 Otters.

Washington scored all five of their runs in the sixth inning. Two singles and a double started the inning for the Wild Things and led to their first two runs. A two-out bases clearing double gave Washington a 5-4 lead.

Tim Holdgrafer started for the Otters and did not factor into the decision. He allowed just one hit and three total baserunners through his first five innings of work before exiting during the sixth frame.

Kevin Davis pitched a scoreless eighth for the Otters and earned his second win of the season.

Polancic’s save is his 15th of the year, tied for second most in the Frontier League.

Skedner hit a go-ahead home run for the second straight day while the Otters hit a long ball in every game of the road trip.

Myers scored twice, raising his single count to 76 total runs scored. He is closing in on Josh Allen’s 83 runs scored in 2017 – the most in an Evansville single season.

The Otters lowered their magic number to seven games to make the Frontier League playoffs with 13 games to play on the season.

Evansville returns to Bosse Field for their final six home games of the season starting on Tuesday with a series against the Joliet Slammers. A 6:35 PM CT Tuesday first pitch is the final Fifth Third Bank Family Night of the season.

Families of four can receive four general admission tickets, four hot dogs, four bags of chips and four drinks all for $40 ($55 value). Click here for more information.

Eagles battle Lions to 1-1 draw

0

EVANSVILLE, Ind. – University of Southern Indiana Women’s Soccer picked up a 1-1 tie in its home opener against the University of North Alabama on Sunday. The draw moved both teams’ records to 0-1-1 on the young 2023 season.
 
The Screaming Eagles started out with early pushes into the attacking third. In the 7th minute, USI came within inches of scoring an early tally. Freshman midfielder Greta Ohlwein (Chicago, Illinois) crossed a pass to the middle of the box toward sophomore midfielder Peyton Murphy (Bargersville, Indiana). Murphy sent a low shot that went off the post.
 
With the match still scoreless, USI jumped onto the scoreboard in the 21st minute. Sophomore midfielder Emma Thurston (Leawood, Kansas) sent a long throw-in pass into the box, which deflected off a defender toward junior midfielder Maggie Duggan (Defiance, Missouri). The captain buried the opportunity into the lower right corner of the net for her first career goal. USI carried its 1-0 lead into the intermission.
 
North Alabama knotted the match at one in the 58th minute after a wayward pass led to a break toward the goal. Later, Southern Indiana nearly retook the lead in the 73rd minute when freshman midfielder Grace Bamber (Chesterton, Indiana) dished a cross to redshirt freshman defender Abby Rhoutsong (Newburgh, Indiana), who headed it inches above the crossbar.
 
In the last few minutes of the contest, the Screaming Eagles organized a couple of attacks in the final third of the field, but the Lions’ defense was able to clear the ball out of danger to hold the match to a 1-1 draw.
 
Southern Indiana outshot North Alabama 7-6 in the game, as each side placed three shots on goal. While Duggan had USI’s goal and Thurston with the assist, Murphy led the Screaming Eagles with two shots. Between the posts, sophomore keeper Anna Markland (Hoover, Alabama) made two saves.
 
On Thursday, Southern Indiana will travel eastward to Dayton, Ohio for a 6 p.m. CT matchup at Wright State University. Coverage links for the match at Wright State can be found at usiscreamingeagles.com.

Knox County – Saturday night, August 19, at approximately 10:56 p.m., Indiana State Police and Vincennes Police responded to a single vehicle crash on College Avenue in Vincennes.

Preliminary investigation revealed Eric R. Boger, 37, of Vincennes, was driving a 2001 Toyota pickup truck northwest on College Avenue when he attempted to turn left onto 15th ½ Street. Boger was traveling too fast, and the vehicle struck the curb on the north side of the street causing the vehicle to flip. The vehicle came to a final rest on the passenger’s side. The driver was not wearing his seat belt and was pronounced dead at the scene by a Knox County Deputy Coroner.

An autopsy is scheduled for this morning. Toxicology results are pending.

103 historic farm families presented Hoosier Homestead

0

INDIANAPOLIS (Aug. 19, 2023) — Recognized for their families’ longstanding commitment to agriculture, 103 Indiana family farms were presented the Hoosier Homestead Award at the Indiana State Fair from Lt. Gov. Suzanne Crouch and Indiana State Department of Agriculture Director Don Lamb.

“The Hoosier Homestead ceremony is always a highlight of the Indiana State Fair for me,” said Crouch, Indiana’s Secretary of Agriculture and Rural Development. “Celebrating these longstanding farming families and their ancestors for their work and commitment to our state and Indiana agriculture is a true honor.”

To be named a Hoosier Homestead, farms must be owned by the same family for more than 100 consecutive years, and consist of 20 acres or more, or produce more than $1,000 in agricultural products per year.

Based on the age of the farm, families are eligible for three different distinctions of the Hoosier Homestead Award. They can receive the Centennial Award for 100 years, Sesquicentennial Award for 150 years or Bicentennial Award for 200 years of ownership.

“Keeping a farm operational for 100 years or more is no simple task,” Lamb said. “Each passing generation has certainly had to adapt and evolve their farming practices and techniques to ensure their farms continued success.”

Since the program’s inception in 1976, over 6,100 families have received the award. Often, a Hoosier Homestead farm is easily recognized because most recipients proudly display their awarded sign on their property.

During the ceremonies, three Indiana farms received the Bicentennial Award for 200 years of continuous ownership: the Craig / Day family from Lawrence County, the Harry Goss Dow & Bessie M. Dow family from Morgan County and the Wise/Hobbs family from Madison County. 

The following list includes the August 2023 Hoosier Homestead Award recipients.
