University of Southern Indiana Softball announced that incoming freshman pitcher Hailey Gotshall (Lucerne, Indiana) has signed a national letter of intent to complete for Head Coach Sue Kunkle‘s Screaming Eagles in 2021-22. Gotshall is the fifth player to sign with USI Softball and the first this spring.
Gotshall is currently a senior at Pioneer High School in Royal Center, Indiana, where she was a member of the 2018 IHSAA Class A State Championship team and 2019 IHSAA Class A runner-up.
A two-time first-team All-State honoree, Gotshall racked up a 30-2 record with a 1.08 ERA and 279 strikeouts inside the circle as a freshman in 2018. She went 20-2 with a 1.58 ERA and 190 strikeouts as a sophomore in 2019 and is currently 4-1 with a 1.87 ERA and 56 strikeouts in 2021.
At the plate, Gotshall has terrorized opposing pitchers throughout her prep career. She hit .617 with 32 doubles, a triple, six home runs and 51 RBI as a freshman before hitting .621 with 29 doubles, three triples, 17 home runs and 75 RBI in 2019. She is currently hitting .647 with seven doubles, a triple, three home runs and 15 RBI in 2021.
In addition to earning All-State honors in 2018 and 2019, Gotshall was the Hoosier North Athletic Conference Player of the Year in 2018 and HNAC co-Player of the Year in 2019. She also was the Loganland Player of the Year in 2018 and 2019.
“Hailey is a very talented pitcher and utility player that we are excited to have joining us next fall,” Kunkle said. “She will be a wonderful addition to our pitching staff, defense and our offensive lineup.”
Gotshall joins USI’s recruiting class that includes outfielder Olivia Howard (Fishers, Indiana), utility player Hannah Long (Haubstadt, Indiana), utility player Kennedy Nalley (Huntingburg, Indiana) and pitcher/infielder Josie Newman (Indianapolis, Indiana). Howard, Long, Nalley and Newman all signed NLIs last fall.

Gov. Eric J. Holcomb today announced Michelle Allen will serve as director of the Office of Administrative Law Proceedings.
Allen joined the Office of Administrative Law Proceedings when it launched in July 2020 as the deputy director and general counsel. She has served as interim director since December 2020 and is responsible for administering the office, hiring Administrative Law Judges and assigning the judges to proceedings.
Prior to joining the office, Allen worked at the Indiana Department of Homeland Security as deputy general counsel and project manager. From 2011 to 2017, she served in the Marion County Public Defender Agency. Allen earned an undergraduate degree from Purdue University and a law degree from the Indiana University McKinney School of Law.
Created by legislation in 2019, the Office of Administrative Law Proceedings is housed within the State Personnel Department. Administrative Law Judges resolve disputes between government agencies and the people affected by the decision of the agency, and the office ensures they retain independence and deliver efficient service to Hoosiers.
INDIANAPOLIS—Almost all sides offered praise Wednesday for the final state budget proposal announced by Gov. Eric Holcomb and state legislative leaders, focusing mostly on its massive investment in education.
Last week after the General Assembly learned of the revenue forecast that brought in $2 billion more than expected, the budget proposal was adjusted to make use of that extra money.

“More than a decade’s worth of conservative fiscal discipline by the Indiana General Assembly is paying off in a big way for Hoosiers,†Sen. Ryan Mishler, R-Bremen, said in a statement. “I am proud to invest in the future of Indiana, and I believe this budget proposal truly reflects the needs of the Hoosier state over the next two years and beyond.â€
About half of the $37.4 billion state budget for the next two years will go toward K-12 schools, and Indiana Secretary of Education Katie Jenner said she is happy about the commitment.
“In Indiana’s budget, all Hoosier kids win,†Jenner said in a statement. “With a historic $1.9 billion in new K-12 education dollars over the biennium, Indiana’s school funding increases are enabling Indiana’s schools to strategically invest in our students as well as our educators.â€
The budget plans to support teacher pay and recommends local school districts give starting teachers a salary of $40,000 a year. The plan also puts about $1 billion toward tuition support scholarships and learning loss grants.
“This is a good day for Indiana’s students, educators and communities,†Indiana State Teachers Association President Keith Gambill said in a statement. “This level of funding is the direct result of our members’ advocacy.â€
One of the ongoing debates throughout this session has been how much to give the state’s voucher program and charter schools compared to public schools. A voucher in Indiana provides scholarships for students who need help paying for tuition at certain non-public schools, and they are awarded based on a list of criteria including income eligibility.
Indiana currently has one of the biggest voucher programs in the country, and the next state budget will see the voucher program grow 38%—from $172 million this year to $227 million in 2022.
Rep. Eddie Melton, D-Gary, said this past year has been difficult and the pandemic has brought to light what Hoosiers need support with. One of the issues the General Assembly took on was addressing the funding formula, which is how funds are distributed into the school districts.
“I’m glad that the supermajority has committed more money to the school funding formula. I remain critical of the increases that were made to school choice programs, however,†Melton said in a statement. “These programs educate less than 10% of our students and simply should not be receiving such a large chunk of the money allocated to educational funding.â€
Rep. Dave Heine, R-Fort Wayne, said education continues to be a top priority.
“Combined with federal stimulus dollars, the state’s 293 school corporations should be on solid financial ground to invest in student learning and increased teacher salaries,†Heine said in a statement.
However, some say the budget is not enough, including parents of virtual education students.
“My daughters are not worth less than other students. Yet according to our state legislature, they are only worth 85% of other students because we choose to send them to online schools,†Letrisha Weber, board president of the National Coalition for Public School Options and an Indiana parent said in a statement. “If we sent them to a traditional school, they’d be worth 100% funding.â€
The budget will face a final debate and vote at 10 a.m. Thursday, ending the session until lawmakers return to discuss redistricting in the fall.

INDIANA (April 22, 2021) – In recognition of Earth Day, the Indiana Conservation Partnership(ICP) announced its 2020 soil health and water quality accomplishments. The ICP works with Hoosier landowners to provide technical or financial assistance for the implementation of conservation projects. In 2020, landowners supported by the ICP installed more than 32,000 new conservation practices – a new state record.
“Soil is one of our world’s most crucial natural resources. We must do everything we can to keep our waterways clean and our soils healthy,†said Lt. Gov. Suzanne Crouch, Secretary of Agriculture for the State of Indiana. “It is amazing to see all the work these organizations do and the amount of sediment reduced by these programs. Hoosier landowners are truly going above and beyond to set new state records and enhance our environment.â€
The Indiana Conservation Partnership report showed that landowners helped prevent more than one million tons of sediment, 2.2 million pounds of nitrogen and 1.1 million pounds of phosphorus from entering Indiana waterways. That equates to enough phosphorus to fill over five fifty-foot train cars, enough nitrogen to fill over 11 fifty-foot train cars and almost 11,000 fifty-foot train cars worth of sediment.
Cover crops were planted on 232,000 acres with ICP assistance, which sequestered almost 148,000 tons of carbon from the atmosphere, equal to the emissions of more than 28,900 cars.
“Even with all of the challenges we have faced this year, our conservation family pulled together and fulfilled our mission of exemplary conservation service to Indiana’s farmers and forest stewards,†said Indiana Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) State Conservationist Jerry Raynor. “The work we accomplished this year is a direct result of our dedicated staff, their commitment to our natural resources and the support they provide our landowners. The Indiana Conservation Partnership has worked together to meet new challenges, making sure that Indiana continues to be one of the top states for conservation.â€
Indiana State Department of Agriculture Director Bruce Kettler says partnerships are key to Indiana’s success.
“Indiana is leading the charge in soil conservation thanks to the critical participation of farmers and landowners alongside these groups who share the common goal of promoting conservation,” Kettler said. “The Indiana Conservation Partnership’s work is helping reduce runoff and enrich our soils with nutrients to safeguard our state’s most essential natural resource and ensure our state’s agricultural land remains productive for many generations to come.â€
The Indiana Conservation Partnership is a crucial part of Indiana’s Nutrient Reduction Strategy, this illustrates the continued success and challenges of conservation and serves as a tool to help set watershed priorities and reduction targets, manage conservation resources and to further stakeholder involvement across Indiana.
