Lavender Ball Celebrates All Cancer Patients

0
Today Evansville took a moment to stop and celebrate the accomplishments of the past year while giving cancer patients a night out on the town.

The chemo buddies organization is holding the lavender ball tonight until 10 at Tropicana casino.

Patients are dancing the night away, and enjoying music, food and more compliments of local businesses.

The lavender ball high lights all different types of fights since lavender is the color of the ribbon that represents all types of cancer.

“And there isn’t anyone you can walk up to on the street or anywhere that doesn’t know at least someone in their life that’s been impacted by cancer. So it’s a wonderful opportunity to be apart of a cause that really gives back. That is on the front lines. We really focus on care. There are other organizations that are focusing on the cure. For us we are focused on the care that people receive during the time that can be the scariest times of their lives,” says Andrea Phillips.

“You know there are so many good organizations in Evansville and this is certainly one of those, probably one of the top organizations and it’s just gonna mean a lot to them. I think this is maybe one of their biggest fundraisers of the year. So if we can spend an hour helping an organization like this that means a lot to the community to raise this money then I will be here every year,” says Ron Romain.

Leonhardt Fans Career-High As Eagles Split Final Day Of Spring Games

LEESBURG, Fla.—Junior pitcher Jennifer Leonhardt (Louisville, Kentucky) fanned a career-high 16 batters Saturday as University of Southern Indiana Softball split its final day of competition at The Spring Games.

After seeing a 3-0 lead slip away in a 4-3 loss to the California University of Pennsylvania in their opener, the Screaming Eagles rolled to a dominating 6-0 victory over Dominican College (New York) in the nightcap.

USI (12-10) returns to action next Saturday at noon when it opens its home and Great Lakes Valley Conference schedules against McKendree University.

California-Pa. (1-7) 4, USI 3
The Eagles scored three times in the top of the first inning to take a 3-0 lead over the Vulcans. Senior catcher Lindsey Barr (Whitesville, Kentucky) had a solo home run to cap the inning off, while Leonhardt and senior second baseman Claire Johnson (Pittsboro, Indiana) hit back-to-back singles to lead the frame off before scoring on passed balls and wild pitches, respectively.

Cal-PA, however, scored on a two-out error in the last half of the third inning; then capitalized on another error in the fifth inning to score three times and take a 4-3 lead.

The Eagles’ offense came to a grinding halt following the first inning as they were held to just three hits throughout the final six frames.

Senior pitcher Haylee Smith (Florence, Kentucky) was charged with the loss after giving up three unearned runs off three hits in two innings of relief work. Smith (0-1) finished with two strikeouts and no walks in the decision.

USI 6, Dominican (0-2) 0
Senior outfielder Caitlyn Bradley (Forest, Indiana) had a two-run triple to cap off a four-run first inning for the Eagles and USI never looked back as Leonhardt mowed down batter after batter en route to her second straight one-hit, complete-game shutout.

The Eagles had 16 hits in total, including four in the bottom of the first inning and three more in a two-run fourth frame. Barr continued to be a menace to opposing pitchers as she had a two-run single in the fourth frame to put the Eagles up, 6-0.

Leonhardt (8-3), who came within one batter of tossing a no-hitter in USI’s 4-0 win over The University of Findlay Friday, took a perfect game into the top of the sixth inning. A lead-off single, however, broke up the quest for her first-career perfect game, though she still managed to strikeout four the final six batters she faced to complete the shutout.

After recording a pair of strikeouts in an inning of work in USI’s first game of the day, Leonhardt faced just one batter over the minimum in the win in over the Chargers. She struck nine of the first 10 batters she faced before allowing a fly ball to escape the infield.

Eagles sweep Day 5 at Spring Games

0

Junior pitcher/third baseman Jennifer Leonhardt (Louisville, Kentucky) tossed a one-hit shutout, while senior catcher Lindsey Barr (Whitesville, Kentucky) and senior outfielder/pitcher Caitlyn Bradley (Forest, Indiana) drove in a combined six runs as University of Southern Indiana Softball earned a pair of wins in its fifth day of competition at The Spring Games.

Senior second baseman Claire Johnson (Pittsboro, Indiana) was a combined 6-of-8 at the plate as the Screaming Eagles earned a 5-0 Midwest Region win over The University of Findlay to begin the day before posting a 5-2 win over Notre Dame College (Ohio) in a game that carried regional implications.

The Eagles (11-9) conclude The Spring Games Saturday with games against California University of Pennsylvania (11:15 a.m. CST) and Dominican College (New York) (3:45 p.m.). Live stat updates will be available at GoUSIEagles.com.

USI 5, Findlay (8-8) 0
Leonhardt carried a no-hitter into the seventh inning, where a two-out single stopped the All-American’s bid for her third-career no-hitter and first of the 2019 campaign.

The one-hit shutout was more than enough for an Eagles offense that scored runs in the first, fourth and fifth frames. Leonhardt pushed the first run across with an RBI-single in the last half of the first inning, while Bradley and Johnson each had RBI-singles in the fourth.

Bradley went 3-for-3 with three RBIs, including a two-run single in the fifth to extend the Eagles’ advantage to 5-0.

Leonhardt (7-3) allowed just three base runners as she fanned 11 batters without issuing a walk.

USI 5, Notre Dame (OH) (1-3) 2
USI scored three times with two outs in the top of the first inning to take a 3-0 lead it would not relinquish. Junior outfielder Allison Schubert (Nicholasville, Kentucky) had an RBI-double to start the scoring, while Barr capped off the four-hit first inning with a two-run double.
