0

University of Southern Indiana Men’s Cross Country collected its league-record 15th consecutive Great Lakes Valley Conference title Saturday at Angel Mounds as the No. 8 Screaming Eagles finished first out of 14 teams at the GLVC Championships.

The score was a lot closer than expected at the University of Illinois Springfield, coached by former USI National Champion Tyler Pence, pushed the Eagles to their limit. The first-place finish by sophomore All-American Titus Winders, however, helped propel USI to its league-record 27th conference championship.

Winders finished the rain-soaked eight-kilometer race in 25 minutes, 4.95 seconds, nearly 20-seconds faster than the time posted by second-place finisher Wyatt McIntyre of Illinois Springfield; and was named the GLVC Men’s Cross Country Runner of the Year for his effort.

Additionally, Winders’ first-place finish marked the third straight year and eighth time in the last nine seasons that the Eagles’ have had the top finisher at the GLVC Championships. Winders, the 2018 GLVC Freshman of the Year as well as the 2018 Midwest Region Runner of the Year, is the ninth different USI men’s runner to capture a GLVC Cross Country title, while USI men’s runners have won a total of 17 conference titles.

Senior Austin Nolan, who had won the previous two GLVC championships, ran step-for-step with Winders throughout the first six kilometers before finishing fifth with a time of 25:29.60, while fellow classmate Nathan Hall was eighth with a time of 25:37.38. Junior Gavin Prior was USI’s No. 4 with a 14th-place finish.

Through the first four finishers, however, the Eagles found themselves clinging to a two-point lead over Illinois Springfield, which finished six points behind USI’s winning score of 47. USI’s decisive blow came at No. 5, where junior Wyat Harmon finished 19th and four spots in front of the Prairie Stars’ No. 5 competitor.

Junior Grady Wilkinson and senior Javan Winders rounded out the Eagles’ top seven finishers with respective finishes of 29th and 34th.

In addition to Titus Winders, the Eagles’ All-GLVC honorees included Nolan, Hall, and Prior. Head Coach Mike Hillyard was named the GLVC Coach of the Year for the 28th time in his career—he was the GLVC Women’s Coach of the Year as well.

The University of Indianapolis was third, while Missouri S&T and league-newcomer Southwest Baptist University were fourth and fifth, respectively, to round out the top-five teams.

USI returns to action on November 9 when it hosts the NCAA II Midwest Region Championships at Angel Mounds. The women’s 6k is slated for a 10:30 a.m. start time, while the men’s 10k is scheduled to begin at 11:45 a.m.

“Right Jab And Middle Jab And Left Jab” October 27, 2019

“Right Jab And Middle Jab And Left Jab” was created because we have a couple of commenters that post on a daily basis either in our “IS IT TRUE” or “Readers Forum” columns concerning National or International issues.
The majority of our “IS IT TRUE” columns are about local or state issues, so we have decided to give our more opinionated readers exclusive access to our newly created “LEFT JAB and Middle Jab and RIGHT JAB”  column. They now have this post to exclusively discuss national or world issues that they feel passionate about.
We shall be posting the “LEFT JAB” AND “MIDDLE JAB” AND “RIGHT JAB” several times a week.  Oh, “LEFT JAB” is a liberal view, “MIDDLE JAB” is the libertarian view and the “RIGHT JAB is representative of the more conservative views. Also, any reader who would like to react to the written comments in this column is free to do so.

Today’s “Readers Poll’ question is: If the election was held today for City Council Ward Four (4) who would you vote for?

The Eagles got a huge boost from their No. 4-7 runners as they finished the GLVC Championships with 48 points, eight in front of the Bearcats, to earn their first title since 2017.

Southwest Baptist jumped out to a big lead as a pair of Bearcats—individual winner and GLVC Runner of the Year Elysia Burgos as well as GLVC Freshman of the Year Tesa Valdivia—finished in front of USI’s top finisher.

Junior Jennifer Comastri was the first to cross the finish line for the Eagles as the Indianapolis native was fifth with a six-kilometer time of 21 minutes, 51.45. Senior Hope Jones was sixth with a time of 21:55.75, but the Bearcats’ No. 3 runner, Tabitha Weber, finished seventh, two spots ahead of USI’s No. 3, freshman Presley Warren.

Down by eight points with three runners across the finish line, the Eagles’ scored a three-point win at No. 4 as junior Dorian Langlois posted a 13th-place finish. Freshman Mckenna Cavanaugh, USI’s No. 5 finisher, out-kicked Southwest Baptist’s No. 4 finisher for 15th. The gap between Cavanaugh and Southwest Baptist’s No. 5 proved significant as the Eagles also placed their No. 6 and No. 7 finishers in front of the Bearcats’ No. 5, who was 28th overall.

Rounding out USI’s top seven runners was freshman Aubrey Swart, who was 21st in the 143-competitor field, and sophomore Emma Brown who finished 25th.

Comastri, Jones, Warren, Langlois and Cavanaugh all were named All-GLVC due to their top-15 finishes, while Head Coach Mike Hillyard earned GLVC Coach of the Year honors for the 27th time in his career—Hillyard collected his 28th GLVC Coach of the Year honor following the men’s race.

USI nearly knocks off Indianapolis in five sets

0

The University of Southern Indiana volleyball team fell on the road in Great Lakes Valley Conference play at the University of Indianapolis in five sets Friday night, 25-20, 16-25, 26-28, 25-21, 15-11. Freshman outside hitter Leah Anderson posted her fifth double-double of the season with a 17-kill, 11-dig effort while freshman right side hitter Katherine Koch added a season-high 14 kills on a .375 hitting cip to lead the Screaming Eagles against the Greyhounds.

Both squads turned the contest into a defensive match, combining for 18 blocks (10 by USI) while holding each other under the .200 mark for team hitting percentage. Anderson led the match with six blocks, followed by senior middle blocker Amanda Jung with five.

The Screaming Eagles (11-12, 3-5 GLVC) paced the match in numerous categories, finding advantages in kills (59-54), blocks (10-8), hitting percentage (.195-.171) and service aces (11-7) over the host Indianapolis.

The Eagles fell behind early in the opening set, trailing by as many as seven points at 21-14. USI had more attack errors (6) than kills (2) to open the frame before rattling off 10 kills to just two errors to close the gap to just three points before eventually dropping the set. Anderson, senior middle hitter Elexis Coleman and sophomore middle blocker Sidney Hegg each snatched three kills in the opener.

USI pounced on the Greyhounds right away in the second as the Eagles found themselves an 11-3 lead. Anderson led the momentum with three kills in the first 11 points. The Eagles pinned down UIndy’s attack, forcing the host team into a negative .200 hitting mark at the net. Koch closed down UIndy with three kills late, pushing her total to six through two.

Anderson and Koch each eclipsed double digits in kills in the third frame as the Eagles dropped 16 kills on the Greyhounds, while holding UIndy to a .091 hitting clip. USI needed every bit of its 14-7 set-opening run to hold on as UIndy came back to force extra points before Anderson notched a pair of her six kills to close it out.

The heated battle to close the third frame continued through the final two sets, as neither team amassed a lead larger than four points. The in-state foes racked up 16 tied scores and seven lead changes over that span.
