Otters Earn Solid Win Against Miners On Getaway Day

0

AUGUSTA, N.J. – The Evansville Otters departed Skylands Stadium Sunday afternoon with an 8-2 win against the Sussex County Miners, receiving solid pitching on the mound and key hits at the plate.

Evansville had early success against Sussex County starter Michael Mediavilla.

In the top of the first inning, Steven Sensley lined a hit to opposite field to drive in Jeffrey Baez for the game’s first run and give Evansville an early 1-0 lead.

The Otters jumped ahead to a 3-0 lead in the top of the third when J.R. Davis singled to right with the bases loaded to score Bryan Rosario from third and Elijah MacNamee from second.

In the meantime, Otters starting pitcher Austin Gossmann got off to a strong start, recording three strikeouts in the first couple of innings.

Sussex County did manage to score a run in each of the third and fourth innings. Juan Silverio brought in Mikey Reynolds for an unearned run in the third, while Nick Garland homered to left in the fourth.

Holding a 3-2 lead through four, Gossmann locked back in on the hill for Evansville. The right-hander struck out four more through the seventh inning.

Gossmann’s counterpart, Mediavilla, allowed three runs and struck out seven in seven innings for the Miners.

The Otters struck for four runs in the top of the eighth inning off three Miners pitchers, increasing their lead to 7-2.

Miles Gordon singled to right to score Davis and Baez to start the scoring in the inning for Evansville.  Then Zach Biermann, who pinched-hit in the inning, later scored on an RBI single by Anthony Torreullas. The scoring in the eighth for Evansville finished with George Callil scoring on an error by Sussex County.

Gossmann’s day ended with one out and the bases loaded in the bottom of the eighth, handing the ball over to reliever Augie Gallardo.

Gallardo got out of the bases-loaded jam on a big double play to end the eighth inning, getting David Maberry to fly out to Gordon in centerfield. Gordon proceeded to throw out Alex Toral at home after he tagged up at third base on Maberry’s flyout.

Evansville tacked on an insurance run in the ninth on a sac fly by Gordon, picking up his third RBI of the game.

Offensively, Rosario led Evansville with a three-hit game in his debut. Sensley and Davis finished with two hits each. Davis also had a two-RBI game.

On the mound, Gossmann picked up his fifth win of the season, going 7.1 innings and striking out nine for the Otters. The Miners’ Mediavilla recorded his fifth loss of the season.

Evansville will return home to Bosse Field this week for a six-game homestand, kicking it off with a midweek series against the New York Boulders.

 

CRG Residential Signs Agreement to Advance Major Downtown Redevelopment Due Diligence Phase Commences for Mixed-use Project at Fifth and Main 

0

 EVANSVILLE – CRG Residential, a Carmel-based construction and real estate investment firm, has signed an agreement to advance a major mixed-use project at Fifth and Main streets in the heart of Downtown Evansville. 

CRG Residential, which previously developed Evansville’s 144-unit mixed-use Post House in partnership with Indianapolis-based Scannell Properties, already has begun its due diligence phase. This includes conducting site surveys, environmental assessments, and strategizing on how to overcome current economic challenges. 

“We understand the community’s heightened enthusiasm in developing a project that can serve as a key anchor at the center of downtown. We intend to move forward quickly to identify and propose a development that will instill pride in the Evansville community,” said CRG President Christopher Reid. “We have had a great interest in the Evansville market over the years, and this newest opportunity allows us to pursue our own process to identify what a similar mixed-use project will look like.” 

CRG Residential succeeds former developer Domo Development LLC, which successfully led the project through phase I. 

“When community leaders approached our team about this project, they shared that the site had been a challenge for decades,” said Domo partner John Hennessey. “We are proud of our work to bring the project to this stage. When approached by local investors about selling our stake in the project, we felt it was, both, the right timing and the right decision for our team and the Evansville community. We look forward to seeing the citizens of Evansville enjoy the benefits of the project’s completion.” 

In addition to the Post House, CRG Residential has significant experience with public-private partnerships throughout Indiana and the Midwest. CRG recently opened Nickel Plate Station in the center of downtown Fishers and has invested in other public-private partnerships in Carmel, Greenwood, Brownsburg, Newport, Ky., West Des Moines, Iowa, and Traverse City, Mich. among others. 

“The delay caused by inflation and supply chain constraints prompted a broader review of how best to proceed,” Mayor Lloyd Winnecke said. “Ultimately, the parties agreed that transitioning to a new developer would be beneficial. We are appreciative of Domo’s contributions through phase I and pleased that CRG can partner with the city to complete this vital piece of our downtown plan,” Winnecke continued. 

FOOTNOTE: CRG Residential, LLC is a Carmel-based construction and real estate investment firm that specializes in complex multi-family housing developments throughout the Midwest and the eastern United States. With more than 175 employees, CRG Residential has 29 years of experience, having renovated and/or constructed over 30,000 multi-family units throughout nearly 24 states.

USI BSN Program Adds Additional Application Period, Holistic Admissions Process

0

The University of Southern Indiana College of Nursing and Health Professions now offers two application periods for the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) Program and has changed to a Holistic Admission process for admittance in the program.  

Second application period offers nursing students more flexibility 

Students are now able to apply to the USI Nursing Program during two application periods—summer and spring. Students who are admitted during the traditional summer application period start in the following Spring Semester. The new spring submission period will allow admitted students to start in the following Fall Semester. This additional application period and program start gives students the opportunity to enter the program based on individual academic pathways. 

First-time degree seeking students come to USI with varying amounts of dual credit, and previously, with the singular summer application period, they would have to delay their start and take extra courses. Now, first-time degree-seeking students with dual credit can apply in the spring and be ready for a Fall Semester start if admitted into the program.  

“The need for highly skilled nurses continues to grow, and USI has a strong history of educating this vital workforce,” says Dr. Jennifer Evans, College of Nursing Interim Assistant Dean and Associate Professor of Nursing. “USI nursing is a rigorous and widely known program with talented students seeking to be part of it. Our goal is to increase enrollment with these dual starts. Traditionally, we’ve admitted somewhere between 120-140 students annually—we are very hopeful that this new system will gradually increase that number.” 

With the new application period, the nursing program will begin graduating students three times per year instead of the two traditional times in December and May (at the conclusion of Fall and Spring Semesters, respectively). Beginning in the 2023-24 academic year, BSN students will graduate in December, May and July. Those set to graduate in July will be eligible to participate in Spring Commencement ceremonies in May, while finishing their course work through July. Evans says around 90% of nursing graduates stay in the Tri-state Area post-Commencement, so graduating students at three times throughout the year versus two builds a sustainable pipeline of qualified nurses to be placed in the area.  

Holistic Admission process introduced to make Nursing Program more inclusive 

Previously, students seeking admission into the Nursing Program were accepted based 100% on grades, including grade point average (GPA) and scores earned in specific science courses. Now, with the Holistic Admission process, admission into the program for students who have completed 31 hours of required University courses is based 50% on college GPA, with the remaining 50% based on personal characteristics including a written letter, resume and an interview process.  

“This process provides students without a perfect GPA the ability to highlight other areas they excel in to be considered for the program,” says Evans. “This additional information may allow a more diverse group of students to apply and our admission process to be more inclusive.” 

The Holistic Admission process is in addition to the established Direct Admission and Conditional Direct Admission processes. Those students who meet the criteria for Direct and Conditional Direct Admission can apply during their senior year of high school. Students accepted into the Direct or Conditional Direct Admission pool who maintain the required college GPA along with other program admission requirements are not required to go through the Holistic Admission process.  

“We know that nursing is more than a high GPA,” says Dr. Constance Swenty, Interim Dean of the College of Nursing and Health Professions and Associate Professor of Nursing. “While knowledge is important, nurses provide caring and empathy as well as culture and diversity to their communities and patients. The Holistic Admission process gives an opportunity to look at all qualities the student is bringing to nursing.” 

The 2022 traditional summer application period has been extended through Friday, July 29th. Students accepted in the program during this application period will begin nursing courses in Spring 2023.
