Gabe Whitley Announces Candidacy For Evansville Mayor In Republican Primary

0

I love Evansville, it’s my home and I’m running because people want change, we are tired of the same faces, the same problems, the same Government Departments stealing money from us, same promises being broken that our community has been facing for decades.

Under the same leadership throughout our community, we have seen a drastic increase in violence, CenterPoint financially hurting us, and broken promises to fix our roads and protect our Police’s pension. I have experience working with citizens, Evansville City Council, Mayors Office, and the County Government to stop the mask mandate fine of a thousand dollars in 2020.

I have worked with State Legislators to stop the State Shutdown, pass the Constitutional Carry bill, and currently helping to pass the life at conception bill this year. I have experience working with elected leaders on the local, state, and federal levels, and I will apply that to the Mayor’s Office.

Thank you!

Gabe Whitley

Sammy Dowd Named UE Men’s Basketball Graduate Assistant

0

Former Idaho State Player Joins UE P:rogram

 EVANSVILLE, Ind. – Former Idaho State standout Sammy Dowd has joined University of Evansville men’s basketball coach David Ragland’s staff as a graduate assistant.

A native of Seattle, Washington, Dowd most recently played in the Philippines for the University of the Philippines Fighting Maroons in 2020.

“When I came to Evansville, it was a goal to surround myself with talented but very good individuals.  In my opinion, there is nobody better than Sammy,” Ragland said.  “From the first moment, I met him when he was at North Idaho, hit attitude, excitement and positivity were contagious.”

“North Idaho had an undefeated season with one guy who went on to play in the NBA and others who played at bigger schools…none of that would have been possible without Sammy.  The way to get this program where I want it to be is to bring in those who are talented but are even better people.  He exemplifies that.”

In two seasons at Idaho State, Dowd appeared in a total of 56 games while making 10 starts.  As a senior in 2018-19, he notched five assists and 26 minutes, both career highs, against Portland State.  His top scoring effort at ISU came in his junior season where he tallied 13 points also against Portland State.

Following his junior campaign in 2017-18, Dowd was the recipient of the US Basketball Writers Association’s Most Courageous award given at the NCAA tournament Final Four.  He was recognized for the hurdles that he overcame in his life to accomplish one of his goals of playing college basketball at the Division I level.

“I am blessed to have the opportunity to work for Coach Ragland and to learn from him, George Swanson, Marcus Wilson, Craig Snow, and Roosevelt Jones,” Dowd exclaimed.  “Learning from some great mentors has prepared me for this position and I am thankful and blessed to be here.”

Prior to his Division, I career, Dowd played for two seasons at North Idaho where he averaged 17 points and 7 assists per game.  He was named to the honor roll and helped his team to a conference championship.  In his time at Gonzaga Prep, he lettered in football and basketball.  His basketball squad advanced to the state playoffs on three occasions while finishing as high as 8th in the state rankings.

He is the son of Ron and Jill Miller and has a sister Megan and a brother Matt.

Otters lose on walk-off home run by Boomers

0

SCHAUMBURG, Ill. - Tied 3-3 going into the bottom of the ninth inning Thursday, a walk-off home run from Braxton Davidson gave the Schaumburg Boomers a 4-3 win over the Evansville Otters in the series finale.

 

For the third straight game, Evansville was the team to kick off the scoring. Following a Zach Biermann triple, J.R. Davis drove in the game’s first run with an RBI fielder’s choice in the first inning.

 

Schaumburg scored off Evansville starter Justin Watland in the third, capitalizing on a pair of Otters miscues for three runs – two unearned.

 

Cosimo Canella brought in the opening run on an RBI double, a few batters after an error from Zach Biermann allowed a runner on.

 

Later in the inning, a bases-loaded walk by Braxton Davidson gave Schaumburg their lead. Directly after, Clint Hardy’s sacrifice fly rose the Boomers’ lead to 3-1.

 

In the fifth, Evansville found offense once again, putting together five straight one-out singles, scoring on the two from Biermann and Davis.

 

The game remained tied at 3-3 long into the game, both sides leaving numerous men on base. Both squads left the bases loaded in the seventh inning without scoring a run.

 

In the bottom of the ninth, Schaumburg ended it with a walk-off home run to right field by Braxton Davidson.

 

The home run was Davidson’s second of the series and marked the third time this season Evansville has fallen in walk-off fashion.

 

The loss fell to Augie Gallardo, his second of the season. Watland allowed three runs – one earned – on two hits in six full innings. The win was given to Juan Pichardo, his second of 2022. Schaumburg starter Blake Stelzer allowed three runs on 10 hits in his 6.1 innings.

 

The Otters take the season series over Schaumburg 5-3, as the two will not play again in the 2022 regular season.

 

Evansville remains one game back of first-place Washington in the West Division, with the Wild Things coming to Evansville this weekend to conclude the pre-All-Star schedule. The three-game set begins Friday night with a 6:35 p.m. first pitch from Bosse Field. Gates open at 5:30 p.m.
