Maddox Joins USI Baseball Staff For 2022

0

 University of Southern Indiana Baseball announced the addition of sophomore right-handed hurler Parker Maddox (Columbus, Indiana) to the 2022 pitching staff.

Maddox is a transfer from Iowa Western Community College where he appeared in four games as a redshirt freshman, posting a 3.38 ERA in 5.1 innings of work with two strikeouts. Prior to pitching for Iowa Western, he had a 4.50 ERA in two appearances and three strikeouts on the hill for Ohio University during the COVID-shortened 2020 season.

“Parker is a power arm that is an upper 80s-low 90s mph arm,” said USI Baseball Head Coach Tracy Archuleta. “He will compete for a starting spot this spring.”

Before moving to the collegiate level, Maddox was letter winner in baseball at Columbus North High School (Columbus, Indiana). The two-time Perfect Game Preseason All-American (2017, 2018) had a 2.39 ERA and 49 strikeouts as a junior (2018) and helped Columbus North to a regional and sectional championship.

USI, which received votes for the ABCA Top 40 poll, opens 2022 play February 18.

102 Hoosier Artists Strengthen Careers, Communities Through Fellowships From The Indiana Arts Commission

0

The Indiana Arts Commission (IAC) announced it has awarded $204,000 to 102 creative entrepreneurs to fund arts projects around the state through the agency’s On-Ramp Creative Entrepreneur Accelerator program.  

Each funded project will support the pursuit of a clearly defined business goal that also supports the entrepreneur’s community.  

“The projects that are taking place around the state are reflective of the diverse talents of Indiana’s creative entrepreneurs,” said Paige Sharp, IAC Deputy Director of Programs. “This fellowship allows On-Ramp participants to grow in their career while strengthening the fabric of their community.” 

Franklin County resident Katherine Magalski is using funds from her project to assist with the cost of an electric kiln for her ceramic studio, allowing her to produce functional ceramic ware that will generate revenue. Additionally, in the spirit of giving back to her community, Katherine will participate in the 23rd Clay Alliance Empty Bowls benefit for the Freestore Foodbank by creating and glazing bowls, and by serving several times during the event. Participating in this event will help others in need and build Magalski’s network in the Tri-State area.

 Marion County resident Manon Voice’s long-term creative business goal is to find new and innovative ways to use art as a means of conversation and awareness around social issues and as a tool for community building, engagement, and empowerment. She will utilize the fellowship funding to create poetry and hip-hop to fuel more social awareness around housing stability issues in Indiana. Each produced piece will explore a different topic, such as eviction, gentrification, and redlining. After completing the album, Manon will pair performance with panel discussion on these topics, inviting people from impacted communities and those working on the issues to participate in discussions that can lead to actionable steps toward solutions.

0

 

Warrick: Earlier today, Paul Wiltshire, 70, died at Deaconess Gateway Hospital. Wiltshire had been in custody at the Warrick County Jail for allegedly shooting Posey County Sheriff’s Deputy Bryan Hicks on September 18.

On December 17, Wiltshire was ill, and his medical condition required him to be transported by ambulance from the Warrick County Jail to Deaconess Gateway. The Posey County Sheriff’s Office took over custody of Wiltshire while he was being treated at the hospital.

Posey County Sheriff Tom Latham has requested the Indiana State Police to investigate Wiltshire’s death, which is common when an inmate dies in custody.

According to Warrick County Coroner Sarah Seaton, the preliminary cause of Wiltshire’s death is natural causes due to Covid. An autopsy is scheduled for later today.
