Men’s basketball opens season on Saturday at Ford Center
Evansville welcomes Ball State for a 6 p.m. game
 It is time for some basketball as the University of Evansville men’s basketball team officially kicks off the 2019-20 regular season on Saturday against Ball State. Tip will be at 6 p.m. inside the Ford Center. Fans are encouraged to cheer on the contestants of the “Ace Ace Baby Race†at halftime, which will be presented by The Women’s Hospital.
Setting the Scene
– For the fifth time since 2013, the Purple Aces open up the season at home; overall – Evansville has won seven out of eight Ford Center openers
– The Aces open up against a familiar opponent in Ball State; last season, the teams played a home-and-home series
– Evansville has enjoyed success at home against the Cardinals, going 23-5 in 25 home games
– That includes an 89-77 win last season that saw the Aces erupt for a 44-11 run that saw them erase a 16-point deficit before winning by 12
– Saturday’s game ties the arena mark for the earliest regular-season game played; in 2013, UE also played a Nov. 9 game, taking on Martin Methodist
Coach McCarty’s Thoughts
“It should be a lot of fun, just sitting there, it is almost like you are playing a waiting game. Every school is playing and we still have a few days left before we play. Getting out there in a real game and letting our guys get acquainted and get going is what we are looking for. Once it gets going, it is not going to stop. We’re excited. Our guys are really anxious to get out there and play the right way.â€
Exhibition Recap
– In its lone exhibition game, the Purple Aces earned a hard-fought 71-68 overtime win over the University of Southern Indiana
– K.J. Riley and Artur Labinowicz led the Aces with 14 points apiece
– One of the best in the nation at getting to the line, Riley did so on ten occasions against the Screaming Eagles, converting nine of those attempts
– DeAndre Williams had an efficient 13-point, 7-rebound outing; he was 6-of-8 from the free throw line
– Sam Cunliffe finished the night with 9 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists
– UE’s defense made a huge difference, forcing 26 turnovers while holding the Screaming Eagles to just 2-of-8 shooting from beyond the arc
Eagles open 2019-20 with win at Hillsdale Watson closes to within one win of Pearl
The 13th-ranked University of Southern Indiana men’s basketball team opened the 2019-20 regular season with an 82-73 victory over Hillsdale College Friday afternoon on the first day of the G-MAC/GLVC Crossover in Hillsdale, Michigan USI starts the season,1-0, while Hillsdale opens with a 0-1 mark.
The Eagles’ victory pulls Head Coach Rodney Watson to within one victory of tying Bruce Pearl for the all-time lead in victories at USI. Watson is 230-74 in 10-plus seasons (2009-Present), while Pearl was 231-46 in nine seasons (1992-2001)
USI had command of most of the opening half that included a 17-point margin of 32-15 and was shooting 68.2 percent from the field (15-22) during the run. Hillsdale’s offense came to life late in the opening half when it ignited for a 16-6 run to close the gap by the end of 20 minutes to 38-31.
USI senior guard Joe Laravie led the Eagles through the opening half with 11 points on a perfect five-of-five from the field and converted his only free throw. Junior forward Emmanuel Little and junior forward Clayton Hughes followed with seven and six points, respectively.
The Eagles regained the momentum to start the second half, going on a 6-0 run to get the lead back over double-digits, 42-31, on a jumper by Little. USI re-extended the lead to 16-points, 53-37, with 15:15 left on a pair of free throws by Larvie.
Hillsdale, however, did not surrender and closed the gap with an 8-0 run (53-45) with 12:59 to play, but USI, with a big 17-8 offensive surge, tied its biggest lead of the game (17 points), 70-53. Little led the offensive push by hitting for 13 of the 17 points during the run.
The Chargers made one more dash at the Eagles in the final minutes, cutting the advantage to eight once more, 81-73, before USI closed the door for good on the 82-73 victory.
Little finished the season-opening contest with a team-high 28 points, one short of tying a career-high. He was a blistering 11-of-15 from the field and six-of-seven from the line, while grabbing a team-high eight rebounds.
Laravie followed with 18 points in his USI regular season debut, by hitting six-of-12 from the field, including a three-pointer, and five-of-five from the line. Hughes and sophomore forward Tyler Dancy rounded out the double-digit scorers with 12 points and 10 points respectively. Dancy was one point shy of tying a USI career high (11 points) that he posted in last spring’s Elite Eight quarterfinal game versus the Texas A&M University.
As a team, USI shot 54.7 percent from the field (29-53), 37.5 percent from downtown (3-8), and 77.8 percent from the charity stripe (21-27). The Eagles also won the battle on the glass, 36-21.
USI concludes the G-MAC/GLVC Crossover Classic with a neutral site game with Malone University at Hillsdale. The Pioneers open the 2019-20 season when they play Oakland City University this evening.
The Eagles holds a 3-0 advantage over Malone, including last season’s 74-71 victory at the G-MAC/GLVC Crossover. Guard/forward Nate Hansen led the Eagles with 20 points, while senior guard/forward Kobe Caldwell dropped in 15 points in the win.
UE Nursing Students Plan Seizure and Choking Safety Class
Senior nursing students at the University of Evansville will host a seizure and choking safety class for area foster families on Thursday, November 14. The event is in partnership with Borrowed Hearts, a resource and support network for foster families, and will be held from 6:00 – 7:30 p.m. at Aldersgate United Methodist Church.
UE nursing student Katie Morguson explains that, “Some families may not wish to take in a child or may fear to take in a child if they have certain medical conditions, which they may not know how to manage. By teaching seizure safety and choking prevention, we are bridging this gap.”
Students are also gathering items to be donated to Borrowed Hearts for foster families. Items being collected are children’s clothing, hygiene products, and lice treatment kits.
Each year, the Senior Nursing Class at UE develops a projects that will target a health need in the community, focusing on a vulnerable population. This year, the class wanted to focus on foster children and developed a plan with Borrowed Hearts to identify the need of managing medical conditions.
Aldersgate United Methodist Church is located at 5130 Lincoln Avenue in Evansville. For more information on the project or how to donate email lh226@evansville.edu
