Gould sets UE records as Aces complete season

Softball drops championship opener to Ramblers

 In the opening contest of the 2021 Missouri Valley Conference Championship, the University of Evansville softball team fell to Loyola by a 3-1 final at Cooper Stadium.

UE (23-22) senior Eryn Gould went 1-2 in the contest with two walks.  Those walks helped her secure a new program record with 98 in her career.  That passed Nicole Farris’ total of 97, which was set in 1997.  She also officially set the program records for single season batting (.418) and on-base percentage (.566).  Gould is just the second Evansville player to bat .400 in a season.

Gould led the bottom of the first off with the 97th walk of her career, tying the program record.  Loyola (13-28) was the first to find the scoreboard in the top half of the second.  After stranding two runners in the opening frame, Teagan Sopczak led the second off with a solo home run to make it a 1-0 game.

Evansville put two runners on in the second when Alyssa Barela recorded the Aces first hit of the day before Hannah Wood reached on a walk before LUC pitcher Sydney Ruggles escaped unscathed.  The Ramblers made a run of their own in the third, but it was the arm of Gould that saved a run.  With a runner on second, Sopczak singled to right, but Gould’s quick defense forced Loyola to hold the runner at third before an Izzy Vetter strikeout ended the threat.

Jenna Lis tied the game up in the third with an RBI single.  Her hit scored Katie McLean, who reached on a fielder’s choice earlier in the inning.  Gould looked like she was about to give the Aces the lead, hitting a long fly ball to the warning track.  In the top half of the sixth, Allyson Ivey put the Ramblers in front with a 2-run shot to center field.

Walks by Haley Woolf and Marah Wood set UE up in the bottom of the inning, but Ruggles once again got out of the jam.  Gould earned her second free pass of the game in the seventh, breaking the Aces career record.  McLean reached on a hit to put two on base, but UE could not get the big hit to tie the game and fell by the 3-1 final.

Loyola finished with eight hits on the day, led by a 3-for-3 performance by Sopczak.  Evansville finished with five hits.  Sydney Ruggles picked up her seventh win of the season, going the entire distance.  Vetter took the loss, allowing three runs in six innings of work.  She struck out nine batters.

With a 23-22 mark, the program clinches its second winning season in a row following a 12-11 mark in 2020.

Sophia Rohleder leads Aces in Columbus

COLUMBUS, Ohio – The third and final round of the 2021 NCAA Regional was completed by the University of Evansville women’s golf team on Wednesday at the Scarlet Course at The Ohio State University.

Leading the Purple Aces in the final standings was Sophia Rohleder.  In the final round of her college career, Rohleder recorded a 6-over 78 to complete the regional with a score of 237.  Finishing second on the team was Alyssa McMinn.  She carded the low round of the event for the Aces, completing the final round with a 4-over 76.  Her final tally finished at 245.

Next up was Allison Enchelmayer, who recorded an 82 on the last day.  Combined with her other scores, Enchelmayer finished with a 248.  Caitlin O’Donnell was just behind her with a final score of 250.  She posted an 81 in round three.  Mallory Russell was back on Wednesday and scored an 82.

UE came home in 18th place in the regional, but finished on a high note, recording its lowest team score of the tournament – a 317.

Georgia extended its lead to win the team championship.  The Bulldogs’ final total of 865 strokes finished 15 ahead of a second-place tie between Duke and Arizona State.  Kentucky finished fourth.  Jenny Bae of UGA was the medalist.  A 1-over 73 in the final round saw her finish with a 212, three in front of the competition.

For the Aces, a magical 2021 campaign comes to an end.  The team won its first Missouri Valley Conference Championship in an exciting finish in the snow while Rohleder became the second individual conference champion in program history.  A total team effort helped UE defeat UNI in a sudden death playoff hole to clinch the victory.

 

State’s Department of Agriculture selects new Division of Soil Conservation Director

0

INDIANAPOLIS (May 12, 2021) — The Indiana State Department of Agriculture (ISDA) has selected Trevor Laureys as the Division of Soil Conservation director. Laureys has been with the department since 2015 and previously held the role of GIS and Data Analysis director within the Division of Soil Conservation.

“I am proud to know that the next director of soil conservation for Indiana will be someone with vast agricultural and conservation knowledge,” said Lt. Governor Suzanne Crouch, Secretary of Agriculture and Rural Development. “Trevor has been a great public employee for many years, and I am excited to see his commitment to Indiana and conservation grow.”

The ISDA Division of Soil Conservation is the largest within the department with over 30 employees stationed around the State. Staff assist farmers and landowners in the application of soil health practices and water quality initiatives to improve Indiana’s environmental footprint. While the department of agriculture was formed in 2005, the soil conservation division was established long before and was housed within the Department of Natural Resources.

“Trevor has been a vital part of the soil conservation division for many years and his passion for increasing environmental stewardship shines through in everything he does,” said Bruce Kettler, ISDA director. “We were excited to offer Trevor this opportunity and we know he will go a long way in serving farmers and landowners in this new role.”

As director of the Division of Soil Conservation Laureys will oversee programs, staff, collaboration efforts with public and private partners, manage ISDA soil conservation grant funds and identify opportunities to increase soil conservation and water quality in Indiana.

“I am honored the leadership at ISDA has selected me as the newest soil conservation director,” said Laureys. “I have sincerely enjoyed working for the division of soil conservation for the last six years and I am excited for this new opportunity within the department. I look forward to working with our many partners to promote soil stewardship in Indiana.”

Laureys is a 2015 graduate of Indiana University – Bloomington where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in public affairs and environmental management. While originally from New Carlisle, Indiana, he now resides in Indianapolis.

Grote, Kostbade Earn NCAA Postgraduate Scholarships

0

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Indiana senior swimmers Josie Grote and Gary Kostbade have both been awarded NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship, the organization announced. Grote was also a recipient of the NCAA Ethnic Minority and Women’s Enhancement Award.

“We are so proud of both Gary and Josie for this fantastic accomplishment,” Indiana head swimming coach Ray Looze said. “This achievement embodies the core goals of our program. To win an NCAA postgraduate scholarship takes elite level academics and athletics over a sustained period of time. It’s one of the most prestigious awards a collegiate athlete could be honored to win.”

 NCAA POSTGRADUATE SCHOLARSHIP

The NCAA awards up to 126 postgraduate scholarships annually. The scholarships are awarded to student-athletes who excel academically and athletically and who are at least in their final year of intercollegiate athletics competition.

The one-time non-renewable scholarships of $10,000 are awarded three times a year corresponding to each sport season (fall, winter and spring). Each sports season there are 21 scholarships available for men and 21 scholarships available for women for use in an accredited graduate program.

All former student-athletes who earned an undergraduate degree from an NCAA member school are eligible to be nominated by that school for an NCAA graduate degree scholarship, regardless of when they received their undergraduate degree.

Ethnic Minority and Women’s Enhancement Graduate Scholarship

The Ethnic Minority and Women’s Enhancement Graduate Scholarship were developed by the NCAA Committee on Women’s Athletics and the NCAA Minority Opportunities and Interests Committee.

The goal of the enhancement programs is to increase the pool of and opportunities for qualified minority and female candidates in intercollegiate athletics through graduate scholarships.

The NCAA awards $10,000 to 13 ethnic minorities and 13 female college graduates who will be entering their initial year of graduate studies. The applicant must be seeking admission or have been accepted into a sports administration or program that will help the applicant obtain a career in intercollegiate athletics, such as athletics administrator, coach, athletic trainer or a career that provides a direct service to intercollegiate athletics.

All former student-athletes who earned an undergraduate degree from an NCAA member school are eligible to be nominated by that school for an NCAA graduate degree scholarship, regardless of when they received their undergraduate degree.

JOSIE GROTE

Grote, a two-time All-American from Madison, competed in the Big Ten Championships in all four of her collegiate seasons. She earned All-Big Ten second team accolades in 2021 as a member of the silver medal 800 Freestyle Relay team. She also earned an individual bronze in the 400 IM at the conference meet before securing a fourth-place finish in the event at the NCAA level, the highest placing by a Hoosier female in the history of the event. Grote nabbed six top-10 individual finishes in her career at the Big Ten Championships.

She earned both Academic All-Big Ten and Big Ten Distinguished Scholar honors in 2019.

Grote graduated in the spring of 2021 with a bachelor’s degree in exercise science with minors of medical science and psychology. She plans to attend physician’s assistant school with the hopes of working in orthopedics with other athletes.

GARY KOSTBADE

Kostbade, a graduating senior from Chesterton, was a three-year scorer at the Big Ten Championships Meet. He placed eighth out of the Championship Final in both the 100 and 200 Breaststroke events during his sophomore campaign (2019) at the conference meet and competed in the Consolation Final in the 200 Breaststroke as a junior (2020) and a senior (2021).

He earned Academic All-Big Ten in 2019 and was named a Big Ten Distinguished Scholar in the same season.

Kostbade graduated in the spring of 2021 with a bachelor’s of science in biology and a minor in business. He will begin dental school in the fall at Colorado School of Dental Medicine. He intends to open his own dental practice in the future with a focus in either pediatric or family dentistry.

Since the start of the 2015 academic year, Indiana has produced four recipients of the award. Three of the four have come from the swimming program: Anze Tavcar (Winter, 2017-18), Josie Grote (Winter, 2020-21) and Gary Kostbade (Winter, 2020-21). Olivia Hippensteel (Spring, 2016-17) also earned the distinction from the women’s track team.
