Shea Feehan named MVC Newcomer of the Week

0

Feehan averaged 25 points per game

ST. LOUIS â€“ University of Evansville graduate transfer Shea Feehan has been named the Missouri Valley Conference Newcomer of the Week in an announcement by the league today.

Feehan averaged 25 points per game while adding four rebounds per contest for the Purple Aces in the last week of action as he reset his Evansville scoring mark in each game.  In Tuesday’s game at Arkansas State, Feehan was 6-of-13 from the field while going 4/10 from outside to finish with 21 points. 

On Sunday, he erupted for a career-high 29 points in a huge win over Ball State.  Trailing by as many as 17 points in the first half, Feehan helped his team embark on a 44-11 run to lead the Aces to an 89-77 win.  He hit four more 3-pointers while going 13-of-14 from the line.  He was a 90% shooter from the line (18-of-20) and played 36 minutes per game.

“Shea did a great job.  Before Sunday’s game, I met with him and asked how we could get him off to better starts,” UE head coach Walter McCarty said.  “I asked him what I could do or if there were some plays that he wanted to run.  We had a great discussion and it really translated into the game.”

Feehan and the Aces return home on Saturday to face off against Jacksonville State in a 1 p.m. game.

Willard Library Annual Appeal

0

   As the oldest public library in the State of Indiana and one of the oldest libraries in the Midwest, Willard Library is unique among cultural icons in the City of Evansville—everything from its historic architecture, the rare and expansive local history archives, to the unique programs for children and adults.

  In 2015, Willard Library, one of Evansville’s premiere cultural destinations, opened its first ever building expansion since its opening in 1885.  The Browning Gallery in this addition now serves as an indoor venue for library events and the Park’s role as an outdoor entertainment space has been elevated. This year the Browning Gallery in Willard Library and the Willard Park were host to over 20,000 visitors! 

  We are excited to announce that on June 21-22, 2019, Willard Library will expand these offerings and will host a free, regional event that will celebrate Evansville history in a grand way! The centerpiece to this Heritage Days Festival will be an original play about the life and times of library founder, Willard Carpenter, written by an award winning New York City playwright. In addition to the theatrical performances, there will be fun activities, historical re-enactors, music, and other sideshows befitting a Victorian street fair! 

  You can be a part of this success with your gift to Willard. By making your contribution today, you can become part of Willard Library history.  Your gift will help to launch programs showcased in the Gallery and theatrical and celebratory events in the rejuvenated Willard Library Park. But most importantly, plan to attend with your family and friends.

The three-time All-Southwestern Indiana and All-Big 8 Conference honoree led her team to a conference title in 2018 as she hit eight home runs and posted 111 strikeouts.

Allie Goodin is a senior at Mater Dei High School (Evansville, Indiana) where she has earned letters in basketball and softball. Goodin, whose older sister, Emily, pitches for Indiana University, earned All-State honors as a junior in 2018 and is a three-time All-City and two-time All-Conference honoree.

“Allie and Brooklyn are nice additions to our pitching staff who bring offensive power to our lineup,” Kunkle said. Jordan and Anna also are powerful hitters that will impact our infield, while Emma and Rachel are fast, versatile and smart players that will immediately help offensively and defensively.
