Easily applyUSI loses in final minutes to Little Rock
EVANSVILLE, Ind. – University of Southern Indiana Women’s Soccer concluded their two-match homestand Sunday with a heartbreaking 1-0 loss to the University of Arkansas-Little Rock, as the game-winning goal was scored with just over two minutes remaining in the Ohio Valley Conference battle.
Â
USI started the match aggressively in the attacking third, generating two shots within the first five minutes. Junior forward Morgan Beyer (Rossford, Ohio) and freshman midfielder Emma Thurston (Leawood, Kansas) had the two attempts at goal.
Â
The middle portion of the first half saw the offenses quiet down a little, making the match a back-and-forth battle for possession in the midfield. The Screaming Eagles picked up their attack once again toward the tail end of the first half, getting two shots from freshman forward Payton Seymour (Louisville, Kentucky).
Â
The match was scoreless at halftime. USI outshot Little Rock 5-0 at the break.
Â
About 15 minutes into the second half, Little Rock threatened with a flurry of attempts inside the defensive box for USI. The mad scramble in the box ended with a save by senior goalkeeper Maya Etienne (Midland, Michigan) and cleared away by the USI defense to get the ball out of danger.
Â
USI generated three more shots and a couple of corner kicks midway through the second half, but the back-and-forth battle continued. Then with just over two minutes remaining, and when it appeared that a scoreless draw was looming, Little Rock scored the game-winning goal. The Trojans’ redshirt freshman forward Bronte Peel passed the ball to the wide right where sophomore defender Abbie Smith made a one-time cross to the box. Freshman midfielder Amaya Arias headed the cross into the goal for her third goal of the season. Peel and Smith were credited with assists.
Â
In the match, USI outshot Little Rock 8-5, while the Trojans had two shots on goal to USI’s one. Both teams recorded four corner kicks.
Â
For USI, Beyer and Seymour led the team with two shots each, including one on goal for Seymour. In net, Etienne played the full 90 minutes with one save.
Â
Next up, USI Women’s Soccer will continue the conference schedule next Sunday, October 2 on the road at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville. Kickoff is set for 2 p.m. next Sunday and can be seen live on ESPN+ with a subscription.

Virtual Author Talk: Hernan Diaz | September 27 |
|
Join us for an afternoon with Pulitzer Prize finalist and PEN/Faulkner Award winner Hernan Diaz, author of In the Distance and Trust. Diaz holds a Ph.D. from NYU and edits, the Spanish-language journal Revista Hispánica Moderna, at Columbia University.
Diaz’s new book, Trust, is set during the roar of the 1920s around the Wall Street tycoon Benjamin Rask and his wife, Helen. Together, they have risen to the top of the world of seemingly endless wealth–all as a decade of excess and speculation draws to an end. But at what cost have they acquired their immense fortune? This is the mystery at the center of Bonds, a successful 1937 novel that all of New York seems to have read. Yet there are other versions of this tale of privilege and deceit.
Hernan Diaz’s Trust elegantly puts these competing narratives into conversation with one another—and in tension with the perspective of one woman bent on disentangling fact from fiction. The result is a novel that spans over a century and becomes more exhilarating with each new revelation.
About the author: Hernan Diaz is the author of two novels translated into more than twenty languages. His first novel, In the Distance, was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize and the PEN/Faulkner Award. He has also written a book of essays, and his work has appeared in The Paris Review, Granta, Playboy, The Yale Review, McSweeney’s, and elsewhere. He has received a Guggenheim Fellowship, a Whiting Award, the William Saroyan International Prize for Writing, and a fellowship from the New York Public Library’s Cullman Center for Scholars and Writers. |

USI got things going early in the match, Zach Barton (St. Louis, Missouri) scored a beautiful shot assisted by Nick Faddis (St. Louis, Missouri) in the fifth minute to give the Eagles the early lead. Chicago State was able to equalize in the at the 28:05 mark on a goal from Jethro Yumange with the assist from Danail Sergiev.
Â

Â

Â

Rokita And Other States, Demand Fairness For Trump Following Raid On Trumps Home
Attorney General Todd Rokita this week along with the states of Texas, Florida, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, South Carolina, Utah and West Virginia called for a U.S. appeals court to ensure that former President Donald Trump is afforded necessary legal protections following the Biden administration’s unprecedented nine-hour search of former President Trump’s private residence and its seizure of more than 10,000 documents.Â
“From the beginning, this intrusion into former President Trump’s private home has been suspectas to whether the standards of professionalism and reasonableness have been met,†Attorney General Rokita said. “The Biden administration has a history of gamesmanship and questionable conduct, which gives us plenty of reason to be skeptical of the motivations leading to the raid.â€Â
Any strategy of weaponizing federal law-enforcement agencies against political opponents has no place in a free republic, Attorney General Rokita said.Â
“In the past, I have respected the U.S. Justice Department’s efforts to uphold the law,†Attorney General Rokita said. “We must not allow the Biden administration to tarnish that proud heritage by turning the U.S. Justice Department into a political shop devoted to settling scores for the current president.â€Â
As part of a multistate amicus brief, Attorney General Rokita has asked the appeals court to uphold a district court’s order appointing a neutral special master and temporarily enjoining the Biden administration from utilizing a discrete subset of the documents seized for criminal investigative purposes.Â
The court, the brief states, should bear in mind “the extraordinary circumstance of a presidential administration ransacking the home of its one-time — and possibly future — political rival.â€Â

Behrmann Meat and Processing Inc. Recalls Various Ready-to-Eat Meat Products
Behrmann Meat and Processing Inc. Recalls Various Ready-to-Eat Meat Products Due to Possible Listeria Contamination
FSIS Announcement
The problem was discovered through product and environmental testing performed by FSIS and the establishment, which identified Listeria monocytogenes in the processing environment and in products produced by the establishment.
There have been no confirmed reports of illness or adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider.
Consumption of food contaminated with L. monocytogenes can cause listeriosis, a serious infection that primarily affects older adults, persons with weakened immune systems, and pregnant women and their newborns. Less commonly, persons outside these risk groups are affected.
Listeriosis can cause fever, muscle aches, headache, stiff neck, confusion, loss of balance and convulsions sometimes preceded by diarrhea or other gastrointestinal symptoms. An invasive infection spreads beyond the gastrointestinal tract. In pregnant women, the infection can cause miscarriages, stillbirths, premature delivery or life-threatening infection of the newborn. In addition, serious and sometimes fatal infections in older adults and persons with weakened immune systems can occur. Listeriosis is treated with antibiotics. Persons in the higher-risk categories who experience flu-like symptoms within two months after eating contaminated food should seek medical care and tell the health care provider about eating the contaminated food.
FSIS is concerned that some product may be in consumers’ pantries, refrigerators, or freezers. Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.
FSIS routinely conducts recall effectiveness checks to verify recalling firms notify their customers of the recall and that steps are taken to make certain that the product is no longer available to consumers. When available, the retail distribution list(s) will be posted on the FSIS website at www.fsis.usda.gov/recalls.
Media and consumers with questions regarding the recall can contact Connie Haselhorst, VP Operations, Behrmann Meat and Processing Inc., at (618) 248-5151 or connie@behrmannmeats.com.
