Axel is one of four bunnies in a litter – aptly named Axel, Rose, Gene, and Simmons! Gene & Simmons have been adopted already. These four bunnies were part of a group of thirteen total from one household. As usual, pet store bunnies are not fixed when you purchase them, and their population can get out of hand very quickly! Axel’s adoption fee is $40 and includes his neuter & microchip.

This was good enough to give the Eagles a berth in the Great Lakes Valley Conference tournament as the #3 seed out of the east division, taking on and defeating the #2 seed from the west in Missouri-St Louis 5-2. USI then advanced to the GLVC semi-finals where they fell to Indianapolis 5-0.

Combined, these returners have a record of 32-37 from last seasons’ campaign.

USI also welcomed four newcomers to the roster with freshman Parker Collignon (Owensboro, Kentucky), freshman Marvin Kromer (Dogern, Germany), freshman Martin Linares (Buenos Aires, Argentina), and freshman Rishab Sehgal (Jalandhar, India).

THIS WEEKEND
