Aces Drop Saturday Opener To Salukis

Game two halted due To weather

EVANSVILLE, Ind. – Southern Illinois opened Saturday’s doubleheader with an 8-6 victory over the University of Evansville softball team before game two was halted with the Salukis holding a 6-0 lead in the bottom of the fifth.

Game One – Southern Illinois 8, UE 6

Elisabeth Huckleberry opened the scoring with a solo home run in the top of the second.  Evansville tied it up in the bottom of the third when Zoe Frossard looked to be caught in a rundown before an error on the Salukis helped her score the tying run.  Marah Wood picked up UE’s first hit of the game to score Mackenzie McFeron to put the Aces up, 2-1.

It took just one pitch in the fourth for SIU to tie it up as Rylie Hamilton hit a solo shot to center.  The top of the fifth saw the Salukis plate three runs to go up by a 5-2 score.  Capping off the scoring in the frame was an RBI triple by Aubree DePro

Evansville refused to give up and McFeron made it happen in the bottom of the fifth.  After leading off with a triple, she scored on Wood’s second RBI hit of the game, cutting the deficit to 5-3.  Elizabeth Warwick countered in the next half inning, belting the third long ball of the day for SIU, a 3-run launch to center, to extend the lead to 8-3.

UE made a final gasp in the seventh with the first two batters earning walks before a long single by Jenna Lis scored a pair.  Jenna Nink added an RBI groundout, but the deficit was too much to overcome with the Salukis earning an 8-6 win.  Wood had two hits and two RBI in the game while Lis matched Wood’s RBI tally.  Sarah Harness recorded the win for SIU, tossing six frames while Izzy Vetter suffered the loss.

 Game Two

Four hits in the top of the first saw SIU take the early 2-0 lead before they added a third run in the second.  In the third, Southern Illinois made it a 5-0 game as their ninth hit padded the lead.  Jenny Jansen led the fourth off with a home run off the scoreboard for the sixth run of the day.  SIU scored in each of the opening four frames.

As UE was set to bat in the bottom of the fifth, lightning halted play before rain started to fall.  The remainder of the game will take place on Sunday at 11 a.m. before the third game of the series begins.  Senior Day festivities will be held following the final game on Sunday.

Scherry wins it in walk-off fashion for Aces in series opener against Bradley

0
EVANSVILLE – Trailing by one run entering the bottom of the ninth, the University of Evansville baseball team struck for a pair of runs, walking-off with a 6-5 win over Bradley in the series opener on Friday night at German American Bank Field at Charles H. Braun Stadium in Evansville.
“Offense finally came through when it mattered tonight. Pitching kept us close enough for us to do something special,” said Aces head baseball coach Wes Carroll on the win. “Their starter is going to be a handful for many years to come so it was great to get a win. Tomorrow is going to be a special day for our program as we honor Jamey Carroll! Can’t wait to see our energy.”

Starter Shane Gray threw seven innings of work on the evening, allowing five runs and striking-out eight. On in relief, Drew Dominik held the Braves in check, going two innings, not allowing a base runner and striking-out three in what would be his third win of the season.

At the plate, Simon Scherry played the hero on the evening, going three-for-five and driving in half of the Aces runs in the game. Continuing a run of strong form in conference play, Brendan Hord finished the night with a pair of RBI, going one-for-three on the day, including a base-hit that helped set up the ninth inning comeback.

Bradley opened the contest with a pair of runs in the top of the first as Keaton Rice lifted a home run to left to give the Braves the early lead. One of Hord’s two RBI came in the third to help halve the Braves’ lead, driving in Eric Roberts on a groundout.

The Braves pushed their lead back to two with a responding RBI groundout in the top of the fourth, owning a 3-1 advantage.

Evansville’s offense found a spark in the fourth as Chase Hug ripped a single through the right side to score Brent Widder and Hord reached on a fielder’s choice that allowed Scherry to score and tie the game. In the next inning, Scherry gave Evansville its first lead of the night with an RBI base hit that sent Tanner Craig home and earned a 4-3 lead for the Aces.

The sixth inning saw Bradley tie the game again the back-and-forth affair as Jack Lincoln singled to center, which scored Jackson Chatterton to tie the contest at four. A solo home run that drifted out to right field in the seventh by Connor O’Brien gave the lead back to Bradley with just nine outs left for Evansville.

The Braves took their one-run lead to the bottom of the ninth where Hord opened the frame with a signle to left and was replaced by pinch runner Max Malley. Danny Borgstrom then laid down a sacrifice bunt to allow Malley to move to second. With two outs, Craig was intentionally walked and Widder stepped to the plate and was hit by a pitch to load the bases. Scherry then came up and on a 1-0 count blooped a single over the second baseman’s head and into right field allowing Malley to score easily and Craig to score without a throw to walk-off with a 6-5 win.

Saturday represents a special day for Evansville baseball as the Aces will retire UE Hall of Famer Jamey Carroll’s #23 in a ceremony prior to the 2 PM first pitch. The first 250 fans in German American Bank Field will receive a signed commemorative baseball as the Aces take on Bradley in game two of their series at German American Bank Field at Charles H. Braun Stadium.

EPA Delivers on Three Water Commitments in the Agency’s PFAS Strategic Roadmap

0

WASHINGTON (April 28, 2022) – Today, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is announcing three actions to protect communities and the environment from per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in our nation’s waters. The actions announced today advance progress under the Biden-⁠Harris Administration’s Plan to Combat PFAS Pollution by improving methods to detect PFAS in water, reducing PFAS discharges into our nation’s waters, and protecting fish and aquatic ecosystems from PFAS. These efforts complement the historic investment of $10 billion to address PFAS and emerging contaminants secured under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.

“EPA is using all available tools to address PFAS contamination as part of a broader, whole of government effort to protect communities across the country from these chemicals,” said EPA Administrator Michael S. Regan. “This is why we put a Strategic Roadmap in place, and why President Biden fought for billions in funding under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law to tackle this challenge. Today’s actions help protect the health of all Americans as we deliver on our commitment to research, restrict, and remediate PFAS.”

A New Testing Method Will Help Detect PFAS in Water

Robust, accurate methods for detecting and measuring PFAS in air, land, and water are essential for understanding which PFAS are in the environment and how much are present. Detection methods are also essential for evaluating the effectiveness of different technologies for remediating PFAS and for implementing future regulations.

Today, EPA is publishing a new method that can broadly screen for the presence of PFAS in water at the part per billion level. EPA’s new Screening Method for the Determination of Adsorbable Organic Fluorine (AOF) in Aqueous Matrices by Combustion Ion Chromatography (CIC) provides an aggregate measurement of chemical substances that contain carbon-fluorine bonds. PFAS are a common source of organofluorines in wastewater. This new method is especially useful for understanding the presence and forms of PFAS in wastewater when used in conjunction with methods that target individual PFAS. EPA’s Draft Method 1621 has successfully completed single laboratory validation. Multi-laboratory validation will take place this summer and EPA intends to publish an updated version of the method later this year.

New Permitting Direction Will help Reduce Discharges of PFAS to our Waters

The National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) program interfaces with many pathways by which PFAS travel and are released into the environment and ultimately impact people and water quality. EPA is seeking to proactively use existing NPDES authorities to reduce discharges of PFAS at the source and obtain more comprehensive information through monitoring on sources of PFAS.

Today, EPA issued a memo titled, Addressing PFAS Discharges in EPA-Issued NPDES Permits and Expectations Where EPA is the Pretreatment Control Authority. This memo provides instructions for monitoring provisions, analytical methods, the use of pollution prevention, and best management practices to address discharges of PFAS. These provisions will help reduce PFAS pollution in surface water as the agency aggressively embarks to promulgate effluent guidelines, multi-validated analytical methods, and water quality criteria recommendations that address PFAS compounds. EPA also plans to issue new guidance to state permitting authorities to address PFAS in NPDES permits in a future action.

New Protective Levels Will Help Support Healthy Fish and Aquatic Ecosystems

EPA is also developing national recommended ambient water quality criteria for PFAS to protect aquatic life. States and Tribes may use EPA-recommended water quality criteria to develop water quality standards that protect and restore waters, issue permits to address PFAS discharges, and assess the impact of PFAS pollution on local communities and the environment.

EPA is proposing the first Clean Water Act aquatic life criteria for perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS)—two of the most well-studied chemicals in this group. The criteria are intended to protect aquatic life in the United States from short-term and long-term toxic effects of PFOA and PFOS. Following the comment period, EPA intends to issue final PFOA and PFOS recommended criteria, considering public comments and any new toxicity data. States and Tribes may consider adopting the final criteria into their water quality standards or can adopt other scientifically defensible criteria that are based on local or site-specific conditions.
