Hough earns All-America honors as Eagles finish 15th

0

ST. LEO, Fla.—Led by freshman Cameron Hough (Olney, Illinois), University of Southern Indiana Women’s Cross Country raced to a 15th-place finish in a 34-team field Saturday morning at the NCAA Division II Championships.

Hough completed the six-kilometer race in 21 minutes, 22.60 seconds, to finish 33rd in the 256 competitor field and earn All-America honors for the first time in her career. She becomes the 12th runner in program history to earn All-America honors on the cross country course and the first since Jennifer Comastri (Indianapolis, Indiana) garnered All-America honors at the last NCAA II Championship meet in 2019.

Comastri, who was one of the favorites to take home the individual title Saturday, raced in the lead pack early in the competition and was 17th with 1,000 meters to go before dropping out of the race.

Without Comastri crossing the finish line, the Screaming Eagles slipped seven spots in the final 1,000 meters as they finished with 471 points.

In addition to Hough, USI got an 80th-place finish from sophomore Hadley Fisher (Evansville, Indiana) and a 123rd-place showing from fellow classmate McKenna Cavanaugh (New Albany, Indiana). Freshman Allison Morphiew (Evansville, Indiana) was 151st, while senior Kara Martin (Herrin, Illinois) rounded out the Eagles’ top-five finishers with a 159th-place finish.

Sophomore Lauren Greiwe (West Harrison, Indiana) wrapped up USI’s lineup with a 171st-place finish.

USI finishes the 2021 cross country season with a GLVC title and second-place showing at the NCAA II Midwest Regional. The Eagles turn their attention to their indoor track & field season, which begins in early December with some early bird meets.

ST. LEO, Fla.—Junior Noah Hufnagel (Santa Claus, Indiana) posted a top-20 finish as University of Southern Indiana Men’s Cross Country finished 26th out of 34 teams Saturday morning at the NCAA II Championships.

Hufnagel concluded the 10-kilometer race in 30 minutes, 50.50 seconds to finish 17th in the 245-competitor field. He earns All-America honors for the first time in his collegiate career with his finish, making him the 24th men’s competitor in program history to earn All-America honors on the cross country course.

USI finished with 615 points and an average team time of 33:10 on a warm and humid day. Sophomore Braden Nicholson (Claremont, Illinois) and junior Titus Winders (Mansfield, Tennessee) finished 126th and 147th, respectively, while senior Wyat Harmon (Fredericktown, Ohio) and junior Cameron Cox(Huntsville, Alabama) were 162nd and 232nd.

Freshman Silas Winders (Mansfield, Tennessee) was 243rd, while sophomore Mitchell Hopf (Santa Claus, Indiana) was unable to finish after placing 144th midway through the 10k competition.

The Eagles turn their attention to their indoor track & field season, which begins in early December with some early bird meets.

 INDIANAPOLIS (November 19, 2021) – SPECIAL NOTE: Indiana’s unemployment rate for September 2021, which stood at 4.0% when released on Oct. 22, has since been revised downward to 3.5% by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS).

Indiana’s labor force participation rate for September also has been revised downward by BLS, from 63.0% to 62.9%.

BLS made the revision after discovering an immediate change needed to the unemployment rate model that affected the East North Central Region, which includes Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Ohio and Wisconsin.

BLS said unemployment statistical models used to calculate labor force data have been greatly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Effective October 2021, BLS changed its approach to detecting and adjusting for outliers in monthly statewide data. The distortions made to January-August 2021 statewide labor force estimates will be modified during the annual benchmarking process in February 2022.

Indiana BLS Revised Chart

Indiana’s unemployment rate stands at 3.3 percent for October, and the national rate is 4.6 percent. The monthly unemployment rate is a U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) indicator that reflects the number of unemployed people seeking employment within the prior four weeks as a percentage of the labor force.

Indiana’s labor force had a net decrease of 9,183 over the previous month. This was a result of a decrease of 7,030 unemployed residents and a decrease of 2,153 employed residents.

Indiana’s total labor force, which includes both Hoosiers employed and those seeking employment, stands at 3.33 million, and the state’s 62.7 percent labor force participation rate remains above the national rate of 61.6 percent.

October 2021 Employment Charts

Employment by Sector

Private sector employment has increased by 66,000 over the year and increased by 14,600 over the previous month. The monthly increase is primarily due to gains in the Manufacturing (5,800) and the Trade, Transportation and Utilities (4,100) sectors. Gains were offset by losses in the Private Education and Health Services (-1,000) and the All Other, which includes Mining, Logging, Information, and other services except Public Administration, (-200) sectors. Total private employment stands at 2,670,500, which is 70,000 below the December 2019 peak.

State Offers Assistance With Energy Costs 
by State Representative Wendy McNamara
As cold weather sets in, Hoosiers struggling to pay energy utility bills should be aware of Indiana’s Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program.

This program is designed to help households with utility costs associated with electricity and their primary heating source, and avoid shutoffs, especially during the winter. Applications are accepted through May 16 and available here.

A list of local service providers from each county, as well as income and eligibility requirements, are also online. Those without internet access can call 211 and ask to be connected with a local energy assistance program provider. A household that’s already had a utility disconnected received a notice for disconnection or is almost out of bulk fuel should call their local service provider, as they may be eligible for a crisis benefit.

Hoosiers needing help with water utility costs can also apply for relief in the same application for energy assistance. This is a temporary program for households to catch up on water and wastewater payments. Learn more and apply here.

EPA Report: U.S. Cars Achieve Record High Fuel Economy And Low Emission Levels As Companies Fully Comply With Standards

Electric and Hybrid Vehicle Sales Poised to Grow, Projections Show

WASHINGTON (Nov. 19, 2021) — Today, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released its annual Automotive Trends Report which shows the model year 2020 vehicles achieved record-high fuel economy and record low emission levels. Large automotive manufacturers also achieved full compliance with greenhouse gas emission standards. Projections indicate sales of hybrid and electric vehicles will more than double from 2020 to 2021, according to the report.

“Today’s report is a great indicator that automakers are following through with their promise of achieving clean car standards while providing consumers with great vehicle options,” said EPA Administrator Michael S. Regan. “I am optimistic that the innovation and marketing power of the auto industry, coupled with President Biden’s unprecedented support for a zero-emissions future, will accelerate cleaner technologies, sharply cutting pollution to meet the climate challenge.”

Key Highlights

  • Since the model year 2004, carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions have decreased by 24 percent as fuel economy has increased by 32 percent.
  • CO2 emissions for the average 2020 model year vehicle fell to 349 grams per mile (g/mi), the lowest ever measured, and seven g/mi slower than the average for the model year 2019.
  • Average Fuel Economy for the model year 2020 vehicles increased to a record 25.4 miles per gallon (mpg), 0.5 mpg more than the average for the model year 2019.
  • Hybrids, plug-in hybrids, and electric vehicles are poised to grow but are currently at low adoption levels. Electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles accounted for 2 percent of all production, and hybrids 5 percent. In the projected the model year 2021 data, those categories are estimated to grow to 4 percent and 9 percent of all production.

In August, President Biden signed an Executive Order that sets an ambitious new target to make half of all new vehicles sold in 2030 zero-emissions vehicles, including battery-electric, plug-in hybrid electric, or fuel cell electric vehicles. At the same time, EPA proposed a new rulemaking under the Clean Air Act that by 2026 would establish the strongest greenhouse gas emission standards for cars and light duty trucks in history.

Sen. Braun’s Hire Veteran Health Heroes Act Passes House

0

WASHINGTON –  the Hire Veteran Health Heroes Act of 2021, first introduced by U.S. Senators Mike Braun (R-IN) and Maggie Hassan (D-NH), passed the House of Representatives. This bipartisan legislation now heads to the President’s desk to be signed into public law.

The Hire Veteran Health Heroes Act of 2021 directs the Department of Veterans Affairs to create a program that will help actively recruit medical personnel, who are within one year of completing their military service, to remain in federal health care in departments like Veterans Affairs.

Representatives Robert E. Latta (OH-05) and Kathleen M. Rice (NY-04) introduced companion legislation in the U.S. House of Representatives.

“I’m proud to see the House of Representatives pass this important legislation and move it one step closer to becoming law. The VA Inspector General has reported that staff shortages are a challenge for solving problems in Veteran care. This bill will empower the VA to proactively recruit active duty medical personnel who are separating from the military at the conclusion of their contract or at retirement to improve health care services for Veterans. We owe it to our brave veterans who deserve the absolute best services available. God bless the men and women of the United States Armed Forces.” said Senator Braun.
