Indiana Swimming & Diving Wins Three NCAA Titles on Friday Night

Indiana Swimming & Diving Wins Three NCAA Titles on Friday Night

 AUSTIN, Texas – The No. 2-ranked Indiana University men’s swimming and diving team continued competition at the 2019 NCAA Championships on Friday evening at the Lee and Joe Jamail Texas Swimming Center in Austin, Texas.

Headed into the fourth and final day of the 2019 NCAA Championships, the Hoosiers sit in third place in the team standings with a total score of 277.5 points. California leads with a score of 372, while Texas remains in second place with a total of 329.

Senior Ian Finnerty made history on Friday night, winning the NCAA Championship in the 100 breaststrokes for the second-straight year with a pool record time of 49.85. Finnerty’s time is the second-fastest in history, bested only by his winning mark of 49.69 last year. The senior is the only man in the history of the event to break 50 seconds.

Finnerty became the first Hoosier swimmer to successfully defend his NCAA title in 45 years. In 1974, John Kinsella successfully defended both his championships in the 500 and 1,650 freestyles.

Freshman Zane Backes had a great swim as well in the Championship Final of the 100 breaststrokes, taking fifth overall with a personal-best time of 51.35 to earn his first career All-America honor.

For the first time in his illustrious career, Vini Lanza won an individual NCAA Championship on Friday night, taking the title in a thrilling final with a Big Ten and IU school record time of 44.37.

Lanza stormed back from fourth place at the 50-yard mark with a blistering last 50 split of 23.78 to win the championship. The senior’s time makes him the seventh-fastest performer in history in the event.

Lanza becomes the first Hoosier to win the 100 butterfly crown at the NCAA Championships since Mark Spitz completed his four-year sweep of the event in 1972. Lanza’s win in the Championship Final of the 100 butterflies gives Indiana seven titles in the event in program history.

Sophomore Andrew Capobianco dominated the Championship Final of the 3-meter dive, going wire-to-wire to win the NCAA title with a score of 461.65.

After an opening round dive of 83.30 to take the lead, Capobianco distanced himself from the field with a nearly perfect second-round dive. On his forward four-and-a-half somersault tuck, Capobianco scored an amazing 100.70.

After the field tried to close in on the sophomore in the third and fourth rounds, Capobianco came through with two clutch final dives, posting scores of 71.75 and 88.40 to clinch the title. Capobianco earned his fourth career All-America honor with his tremendous performance.

With the three NCAA championships on Friday night, along with the 400 medley relay title on Thursday, the Hoosiers have won eight NCAA crowns the past two seasons. The eight championships are the most for the team in a two-year span in 45 years, when IU won nine total in 1973-74.

In the Championship Final of the 200 freestyle, senior Zach Apple posted a career-best time of 1:31.55 to win silver in the event. With the second-place finish, Apple earned the 17th All-America honor in his career.

Mohamed Samy tied for second in the Consolation Final of the 200 freestyle, finishing tied for 10th overall with a time of 1:32.29. Samy recorded the 11th All-America accolade of his career.

The Hoosiers controlled the 200 medley relay Consolation Final, winning to finish ninth overall in the event with a time of 1:23.27. The IU team of Gabriel Fantoni, Finnerty, Lanza and Bruno Blaskovic won by nearly a second thanks in part to a blistering anchor leg from Blaskovic in 18.57.

In the Consolation Final of the 100 backstrokes, Fantoni placed second to finish 10th overall in the event with a time of 44.96.

With their efforts, Lanza, Finnerty, and Fantoni all earned two All-America honors on the night. Lanza now has a staggering 20 for his career, while Finnerty and Fantoni have 14 and five, respectively.

Blaskovic earned his sixth-career All-America accolade, while Brandon Hamblin earned his second career honor for swimming on the relay in the prelims.

The 2019 NCAA Championships will continue on Saturday morning with the prelims of the 200 backstroke, 100 freestyle, 200 breaststrokes, 200 butterflies, 400 freestyle relay, platform dive and 1,650 freestyle. The action gets underway at the Lee and Joe Jamail Texas Swimming Center at 11:00 a.m. ET.

COA rejects argument that children adopted by unmarried uncle were ‘born out of wedlock’

0

Katie Stancombe for www.thindianalawyer.comx

The grandparents of two children adopted by their unmarried uncle do not have standing to seek visitation, the Indiana Court of Appeals wrote Friday in an opinion rejecting the argument that the children were “born out of wedlock.”

Paul Bobby Hernandez adopted E.H. and I.H. after the Marion Circuit Court terminated the parental rights of their biological parents in January 2017. Hernandez, the children’s biological maternal uncle, and his significant other adopted the children together but are not married.

Then in March 2018, Alvina Casillas and Paul Hernandez, the children’s biological maternal grandparents, filed petitions for visitation as paternal grandparents, which Paul Bobby moved to dismiss, arguing the grandparents lacked standing to petition for visitation because they did not meet the statutory requirements.

But because Paul Bobby is not married, the trial court ruled that the children were technically “born” out of wedlock and that Casillas and Paul did, in fact, have standing to seek grandparent visitation. Paul Bobby then appealed, but the grandparents argued they have standing to seek visitation because paternity was established in Paul Bobby through the adoption proceeding, and because E.H. and I.H. were “born out of wedlock.”

The Indiana Court of Appeals, however, found that argument to be nonsensical, and one that would produce an absurd result unintended by the Indiana General Assembly in passing the Grandparent Visitation Act.

“Specifically, Casillas and (Paul) Hernandez’ theory is an attempt to circumvent the strict interpretation of the statute,” Judge Rudolph Pyle wrote for the panel. “There is clearly a difference between being ‘born out of wedlock’ and being adopted by an unmarried person. A decree of adoption ‘severs forever every part of the parent and child relationship; severs the child entirely from its own family tree and engrafts it upon that of another. For all legal and practical purposes a child is the same as dead to its parents.’”

Thus, finding that adoption is not the same as birth, the appellate panel found Casillas and Paul did not have standing to seek grandparent visitation and that the trial court erred in concluding otherwise. It thus reversed the trial court’s decision in In the Matter of the Paternity of E.H.; Paul Bobby Hernandez v. Alvina Casillas and Paul Hernandez, 18A-JP -2137.

The appellate court also noted the grandparents improperly sought court intervention in a dispute with their own child, Paul Bobby, which was an unwarranted encroachment on his right to raise E.H. and I.H. as he sees fit.

“The legislature simply did not contemplate such a situation when enacting the GVA,” the appellate panel wrote.

Lastly, the appellate court pointed out that E.H. and I.H. do not even meet the statutory definition of “child” under Indiana Code § 31-9-2-1 for the purposes of I.C. § 31-17, which defines “child” as a “child . . . of both parties to the marriage,” “[c]hildren born out of wedlock to the parties”, and “[c]hildren born or adopted during the marriage of the parties.”

“Here, the children were adopted, but the adoption did not occur during a marriage,” Pyle concluded. “This statutory definition simply does not include children adopted by single, unmarried persons.”

Obituary for Robert William Ellis

by MASON BROTHERS FUNERAL HOMES-EVANSVILLE 

Robert William Ellis was born September 10, 1958, to the late William Robert and Mabel Ellis. Robert was the youngest of four children and the only boy. Naturally, he held a special place in everyone’s heart. He was a plump happy baby boy who loved getting into everything and being the center of attention! Being the only boy in his family and the baby, Robert got what he wanted, when he wanted it whether it was from his parents or his sisters.

Robert graduated from Bosse High School in 1976 where he was a member of the football team. He was an avid fan of both football and basketball. During his work career, Robert was employed at the Evansville Vanderburgh School Corporation and the Evansville State Hospital.

The fact that Robert loved to cook is evidenced in one memory his daughter Keidra has of him frying chicken in the wee hours of the morning just for her. Nobody could tell him anything about fried chicken!

In his spare time, he enjoyed fishing and spending time with his friends and family. He was a member of Memorial Baptist Church where he gave his life to the Lord.

Robert was preceded in death by his loving parents William Robert and Mabel Ellis and a sister, Sylvia Ellis-Fykes.

He leaves behind to cherish his memory, sons: Antwan Jackson, Cameron Ellis both of Evansville, Kyle Chambers of Louisville, KY; daughters: Trazette Ellis, Keidra Ellis both of Evansville; sisters: Pamela Suggs, Barbara Gray both of Evansville; granddaughters: Jamia Jackson, Jalyn Keenom-Ellis; great-granddaughter: “Baby Rowan”, and a host of nieces, nephews, family, and friends.

Hoosiers Win NCAA Title in 400 Medley Relay on Friday Night

0

The No. 2-ranked Indiana University men’s swimming and diving team continued competition at the 2019 NCAA Championships on Thursday morning at the Lee and Joe Jamail Texas Swimming Center in Austin, Texas.

 

Heading into Friday, the Hoosiers sit in third place in the team standings with 155 points. California leads with 212 points, while Texas is second with a score of 188.

 

For the second-straight year, the Hoosiers won the NCAA Championship in the 400 medley relay. The IU team of Gabriel Fantoni, Ian Finnerty, Vini Lanza and Zach Apple dominated the event, winning with a Big Ten, Indiana school and pool record time of 2:59.70.

 

The Hoosiers won the event by nearly two seconds, posting the second-best time in the event in history. With the 400 medley relay crown, the Hoosiers have won a relay in back-to-back years for the first time since winning five relays over three seasons in 1973-75.

 

After Fantoni led off with a 49.60, Finnerty recorded his fastest-career 400 medley breaststroke split, leading the field with a blistering 49.60. Lanza followed with a 44.21, while Apple anchored with an impressive 40.64. Apple’s split was nearly 0.3 seconds faster than any other 100 free time in the field.

 

Indiana got Thursday night off with a bang, placing fourth in the Championship Final of the 200 freestyle relay with a Big Ten and school record time of 1:15.41. The IU team of Zach Apple, Bruno Blaskovic, Mohamed Samy and Brandon Hamblin reset the conference and IU records they set earlier on Thursday in prelims.

 

The fourth-place finish in the 200 freestyle relay at the NCAA Championships is the best in program history, besting the tied for seventh finish in 2017.

 

After Apple led off with a 19.06 split, Blaskovic and Samy followed with splits of 18.78 and 18.92, respectively. Hamblin, a true freshman for the Hoosiers, then anchored with a 18.70 to bring it home.

 

In the Championship Final of the 200 IM, a pair of senior swimmers posted career-best finishes in the event. Vini Lanza placed fourth overall with a time of 1:40.30, while Ian Finnerty was seventh with a mark of 1:42.84.

 

Lanza’s fourth-place finish is the best for any Hoosier in the event since Cody Miller finished third in the event in 2013. Last season, both also earned spots in the Championship Final of the 200 IM, with Lanza placing sixth and Finnerty taking eighth.

 

In the Championship Final of the 50 freestyle, senior Zach Apple placed fifth overall with a time of 18.99. Apple’s finish is the best for any Hoosier in the event at the NCAA Championships in 44 years, when Mel Nash placed fourth and Tim Hickcox placed fifth in 1975.

 

For the fourth time in his storied career, James Connor competed in the Championship Final of the 1-meter dive at the NCAA Championships. The redshirt senior placed fifth overall with a total score of 373.50.

 

After missing his first dive, Connor responded well, posting three-straight scores of 76.80, 67.50 and 69.00 to move up the scoreboard. The All-America honor for Connor is the eighth of his career.

 

On the night, Apple earned three All-America honors to push his career total to 16. Lanza and Finnerty each earned two, giving them 18 and 12 in their great careers, respectively.

 

Samy earned his 10th All-America accolade, while Blaskovic earned his fifth. Fantoni notched his third, while Hamblin earned his first honor.
