Trailblazer Track and Field continues to add National Qualifiers at IWU Midwest Classic

0

MARION, Ind. – The Vincennes University Men’s and Women’s Indoor Track and Field teams continued their strong season Saturday at the IWU Midwest Classic hosted by Indiana Wesleyan University.

The Trailblazers men’s Indoor teams came into this weekend ranked No. 21 in this week’s USTFCCCA National Rankings and continued to build on their already impressive resume Saturday.

VU was led by freshman Desroy Jordan (Kingstown, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines) who came away with a third-place finish in the 600 meters, ending with a time of 1:21.53.

Freshman Isaac Stanford (Flora, Ill.) and sophomore Mathew Keitany (Kenya) both put up scoring finishes in the 1000 meters Saturday, with Stanford ending with a time of 2:32.26, good for fourth, while Keitany crossed the line at 2:35.80 and took home sixth place.

Jordan, Stanford and Keitany all later teamed up with sophomore Trent Faulkner (Wheatland, Ind.) to take part in the men’s Distance Medley Relay, with the team placing third with a time of 10:20.59.

“The men got the meet off to a great start in the DMR with a National Qualifying time, which ranks them fourth in the NJCAA,” VU Assistant Track and Field Coach Tyler Steigenga said. “Isaac led most of the 1200 leg and handed off the baton in first place. Desroy followed with a great 400 leg and Trent led most of the 800 before fading in the last straightaway. He handed off to Mathew who ran the 1600 leg well enough to finish the DMR with a time that should get us into the fast heat at Nationals. We are in a much better position at this point in the season compared to last year. There are a few things we have to clean up, but we are showing that we’re able to contend at the top of the NJCAA.”

“Right after the DMR, Ian and Reed both ran PRs in the 5000m,” Steigenga added. “Ian ran 25 seconds faster than his mark two weeks ago and broke the 16-minute barrier running 15:54. Ian did a great job of going out smart. He ran a much more even pace than his last 5000m race, which allowed him to have such a big margin of improvement. We won’t have another chance to run the 5000m this indoor season, but when he gets a chance outdoors, I’m sure he’ll have another breakthrough.”

“Desroy came back later in the meet in the 600m for a National Qualifying mark and eighth fastest time in program history,” Steigenga said. “Soon after, Isaac completed a National Qualifying double of his own. He ran the fifth fastest 1000m time in school history, which ranks him 11th in the NJCAA.”

The VU women’s team was represented by sophomore Brittany Page (Freelandville, Ind.) who placed 14th in the 1000 meters, winning her heat with a time of 3:19.12.

Freshman Daisie Kinnett (Wheatland, Ind.) closed out the day for the Trailblazers in the mile, ending with a time of 5:59.55 and taking home 25th place.

The VU Track and Field teams will look to continue to pad their resumes ahead of next month’s Nationals when Vincennes looks to compete in another split weekend, with some of the VU runners and throwers competing in the Hoosier Hills meet at Indiana University Friday, Feb. 10 and the rest competing in the Jerry England Invitational at UIndy on Saturday, Feb. 11.

“I’m very happy with where we are at this point in the season,” Steigenga said. “Everyone is either PRing or very close. There were a few disappointments after so many great performances last week, but that happens when expectations are raised. Now we have to make the most of the next two weeks and get the rest of our National Qualifiers taken care of.”

IHCDA partners with Ivy Tech to select Emerging Developers

0

IHCDA has partnered with Ivy Tech Community College of Muncie-Henry County to select two emerging, first-time low-income housing tax credit (LIHTC) developers to participate in the 2023 Rental Housing Tax Credit (RHTC) General Set-Aside. On January 12, 2023, eight developers presented to a selection committee comprised of Jake Sipe, executive director IHCDA, and four single mothers who are students of Ivy Tech Community College (pictured below). The committee selected two developers to receive LIHTC funding from IHCDA. Click HERE to learn more about the selected developments.

The Ivy Tech students on the selection committee are participants of Ivy Parents Achieve Success with Support (I.PASS) Program. In 2019 the Education Design Lab, with support from Educational Credit Management Corporation Foundation, led a cohort of community colleges through a human-centered design process to dramatically improve completion rates for single mothers by intentionally addressing the unique needs of this population. The lab selected four institutions across the country to participate in the Single Moms Success Design Challenge, including Ivy Tech Community College. The program piloted in fall 2021 on four campuses (Indianapolis, Muncie, Lafayette, and Sellersburg) and includes dedicated wraparound support services, workforce-aligned programming, and career development services for single mothers.

Over the coming weeks, we will introduce and celebrate each committee member. We are grateful for their participation and this partnership with Ivy Tech. 

A snowstorm couldn’t stop the important work of conducting the annual statewide homeless census! The Indiana Balance of State Continuum of Care and IHCDA want to thank the 400+ volunteers, service providers, street outreach teams, IHCDA staff, and Hoosiers who participated in the 2023 Point in Time Count. An effective Count could not have been conducted without their dedication and support. IHCDA staff also participated in the Count in regions 1A, 2A, 5, 6, 8, and 11.

The results will be published in July, after the Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) Team analyzes the data, and submits to HUD for approval. For historical results and data on the Point in Time Count, as well other available data, please visit the HMIS Data Portal.
