IPAC Executive Director David Powell to Retire

0

David Powell, the Executive Director of the Indiana Prosecuting Attorneys Council, will step down from his role this fall after leading the organization for more than 8 years.

Powell has announced he will step down as IPAC’s Executive Director on October 3, 2019 and will retire on November 1, 2019. Chris Naylor, IPAC’s current Assistant Executive Director, will succeed him. The IPAC Board of Directors officially named Naylor to the post during a board meeting earlier this year.

A former Greene County Prosecutor for 20 years, Powell took over as the Executive Director of IPAC in September of 2011. In addition to providing quality training and resources for Indiana’s 91 elected prosecutors and their offices, Powell also took an interest in passionately advocating for prosecutors in the Indiana General Assembly. Powell is a member of several policymaking boards, making sure the voice of prosecutors is heard when key decisions are made in regards to law enforcement, criminal justice matters and community safety.

“Working at IPAC and supporting Indiana’s prosecutors has been a wonderful and rewarding experience,” Powell said. “I will always be grateful for the opportunity to serve Indiana’s hard working prosecutors.”

Chris Naylor has served as the IPAC Assistant Executive Director since October of 2013. A former elected prosecutor and deputy prosecutor for Jefferson and Switzerland Counties from 2000 to 2006, Naylor will officially become IPAC’s fourth Executive Director on October 4, 2019. Naylor also served as the Indiana Securities Commissioner from 2006 to 2013. Naylor graduated from DePauw University, earned his law degree from the IU – Robert McKinney School of Law, and holds a Master of Business Administration degree from Butler University.  Naylor and his wife, Lydia, have two young sons.

“I’m excited to lead the IPAC team as we endeavor to support the efforts of prosecutors, deputy prosecutors and their staffs who are dedicated to upholding justice and contributing to safe, vibrant and healthy communities across Indiana,” Naylor said. “I look forward to collaborating with our partners in all branches of state and local government to take on the challenges that lie ahead.”

IPAC will start the selection process for a new Assistant Executive Director this month.

AG Curtis Hill Defending Indiana Law Prohibiting Abortion

0

Attorney General Curtis Hill has written an op-ed defending an Indiana law prohibiting abortion based on an unborn child’s race, sex or disability.

“There is no escaping the hard truth that permitting abortion of the disabled not only denies equal human worth but also gradually eliminates the disabled from society,” he writes. “Iceland has reached a nearly 100 percent elimination rate for babies with Down syndrome, and the United States and other developed countries are not far behind.”

The op-ed appeared today at FoxNews.com. Any other outlets are welcome to publish the piece as well but are asked to please include the notation that the op-ed first appeared at FoxNews.com.

USI’s Leonhardt earns Academic All-America honors

0

University of Southern Indiana Softball junior pitcher Jennifer Leonhardt (Louisville, Kentucky) has been named first-team Google Cloud/CoSIDA Academic America in a vote by the College Sports Information Directors of America.

Leonhardt becomes the sixth Academic All-American in USI Softball history and the first since Haley Hodges ’17 collected second-team honors in 2016. Current USI Assistant Coach MacKenzi Dorsam ’15 M’18 was named first-team Academic All-America in 2015.

A second-team All-American on the field in 2019 by both the National Fastpitch Coaches’ Association and Division II Conference Commissioner’s Association, Leonhardt is coming off a 2019 campaign that saw her go 21-9 overall with four saves, a 1.29 ERA, 243 strikeouts and a .187 opponent batting average.

Leonhardt tossed two complete-game shutouts in the NCAA II Midwest Region #1 Tournament, bringing her single-season total to a school-record tying 13 as well as her career mark to a school-record tying 33. She also holds the school record for career strikeouts (705) and wins (76).

Earning her sixth-career All-America honor, Leonhardt finished the year ranked second in the nation in complete-game shutouts, seventh in strikeouts, ninth in ERA,  20th in hits allowed per seven innings (4.71) and 25th in wins.

At the plate, Leonhardt hit .351 with 11 doubles, a triple, one home run and 30 RBIs. She ranked 33rd, nationally, and fourth in the Great Lakes Valley Conference with four sacrifice flies, while her 13 sacrifice bunts tied for first in the conference and placed her 41st in the nation.

Leonhardt also was the GLVC Pitcher of the Year, unanimous first-team All-GLVC and first-team All-Midwest Region by both the NFCA and D2CCA.

In the classroom, Leonhardt has accumulated a 3.764 grade point average as a biology major at USI. She will be named Academic All-GLVC for the third consecutive year later this month and is a finalist for USI’s Female Student Athlete of the Year award.

USI, which was No. 25 in the final NFCA Division II Top 25 Coaches’ Poll, finished the year with a 35-21 overall record and a 19-7 mark in GLVC play. The Screaming Eagles advanced to the NCAA II Midwest Region Tournament for the fifth straight year and the sixth time in seven seasons before falling to eventual Midwest Region champion Grand Valley State University in the championship round of the NCAA II Midwest Region #1 Tournament.
