USI Predicted To Place Fourth By GLVC Coaches

0

The University of Southern Indiana men’s basketball team is predicted to place fourth in the Great Lakes Valley Conference in 2018-19 by the conference head coaches. USI was 20-11 overall and an 11-7 in the GLVC a year ago, earning an eighth-straight trip to the conference’s post-season tournament.

The Screaming Eagles, who collected 141 points in the poll, return six players and three starters in 2018-19. USI senior guard Alex Stein (Evansville, Indiana), a preseason All-American, leads the returning players with 19.7 points per contest.

The prediction of a USI fourth-place finish comes in the first non-division GLVC preseason poll since 2004-05 when the league was comprised of 11 teams.

Bellarmine University (29-3, 16-2 GLVC), the defending GLVC champion, was awarded the top spot with 181 points and 12 of the 13 first place votes. Drury University (21-8, 13-5 GLVC), which won a share of the West Division last year, was second with 160 points, while Lewis University (15-14, 10-8 GLVC) was slotted in third with 157 points and the final two first place votes. The University of Indianapolis (19-9, 12-6 GLVC) rounded out the top five with 138 votes.

Truman State University (20-11, 13-5), which shared the West Division title last year with Drury, earned 118 points in the poll to place sixth. The league coaches closed out the top-half of the GLVC with William Jewell College (20-9, 10-8), which garnered 101 points for seventh place.

The bottom half of the GLVC poll was comprised of Maryville University (20-8, 12-6 GLVC; 94 points); Rockhurst University (14-14, 7-11 GLVC; 91 points); University of Missouri-St. Louis (14-13, 9-9 GLVC; 74 points); McKendree University (12-16, 3-15 GLVC; 64 points); University of Illinois Springfield (14-15, 6-12 GLVC: 61 points); Quincy University (9-18, 5-13 GLVC; 48 points); and Missouri University of Science & Technology (3-23, 1-17 GLVC: 28 points).

The 2018-19 USI campaign begins with exhibition games November 1 at Indiana University and November 3 at Butler University. The regular season campaign tips off November 9-10 with the GLVC/GMAC Crossover in Springfield Illinois. The home schedule begins with Martin Methodist College November 17 in the Physical Activities Center.

TROPICANA EVANSVILLE TEAM MEMBERS DONATE $500 TO ST. JUDE’S

0

n a commitment to civic support and outreach, Tropicana Evansville encourages activities that allow employees to contribute to local charities.

“It feels good to give and we are pleased to offer fundraising opportunities to our employees,” Executive Director of Human Resources Bill Plahn explains.  “Traditionally, we set aside two days each month as ‘Jeans Days’.”

On Jeans Days, departmental dress codes are relaxed so that employees may donate to a pre-selected charity thereby earning the right to come to work casually clad in blue denim.

For September, the company proudly announces a $500 gift to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital through combined contributions of Team Members and Tropicana Evansville.

St. Jude’s is the well-known Memphis, Tennessee, pediatric cancer research and treatment hospital founded by entertainer Danny Thomas in 1962.  While there is no charge to the patient, operational costs for the hospital run about $2.4 million per day.

In October, Tropicana Evansville employees will be wearing jeans to support It Takes a Village Canine Rescue.
