0

University of Southern Indiana Men’s Basketball gave top-ranked Bellarmine University everything it had, but lost 92-80 Saturday evening at the Physical Activities Center. The Screaming Eagles go to 4-2 overall and 0-1 to open GLVC play, while Bellarmine goes to 6-0, 1-0 GLVC.

USI found itself down, 46-34, at halftime after Bellarmine was lights out from the field during the first 20 minutes. The Knights were 75 percent from the field (15-20) and 80 percent from beyond the arc (8-10).

The Eagles had the early lead, 5-1, before two minutes were gone in the game. The Knights’ offense came to life, using small runs to build a 12-point lead, 42-30, with 2:31 left before halftime and led by 12 at the intermission.

USI senior guard Alex Stein (Evansville, Indiana) provided a bulk of the offense during the opening half with 10 points on three-of-six from the field and four-of-six from the line.

In the second half, Bellarmine extended its lead to as many as 15 points, 50-35, with 17:56 to play before USI came to life to challenge the number one ranked team. The Eagles outscored the Knights, 39-26, over the next 14 minutes to tie the score, 74-74, with 3:17 remaining.

USI sophomore forward Josh Price (Indianapolis, Indiana) and Stein led the Eagles during the run with 12 points each. The Eagles also shot 66.7 percent from the field during the run (14-21), 62.5 percent from downtown (5-8).

Stein would give the Eagles their only second half lead, 79-78, on a three-point bomb from the left corner with 1:56. The Knights, however, rallied back and went on a 14-1 run to close out the 92-80 game. Bellarmine, which shot 72.5 percent from the field for the game (29-40) and 80 percent from downtown (10-15), was 10-of-13 from the line in the final two minutes to close out the contest.

As a team, the Eagles shot 49.1 percent from the field (28-57) and 39.1 percent from beyond the arc (9-23) in the contest. USI’s defense also forced 21 Bellarmine turnovers in the game.

Stein led three Eagles in double-digits with 25 points, hitting eight-of-15 from the field, three-of-six from long range, and six-of-eight from the line. He also had a team-high six rebounds.

Price followed with a season-high 22 points on eight-of-14 from the field and six-of-nine from the foul line, while senior guard/forward Nate Hansen (Evansville, Indiana) rounded out the double-digit scorers with 11 points. Sophomore guard Mateo Rivera (Indianapolis, Indiana) had a game-high and career-high seven assists in the loss.

The Eagles are idle for the next 15 days before completing the three-game homestand versus Midway University December 16. Game coverage information can be found on GoUSIEagles.com.

IS IT TRUE DECEMBER 2, 2018

IS IT TRUE that the City County Observer would like to honor the memory of former President George Herbert Walker Bush who passed away peacefully over the weekend?…President Bush maintained the dignity of the Office of the President and presided over both prosperity and challenges?…we as the people of the United States are honored to have had such a competent and dignified gentleman to serve as President?…the transition from dignity to whatever one calls the rankor of today started with the defeat of President Bush by an upstart from Arkansas who ushered in the era of personal indulgence without accountability or consequence?…President Bush was a statesman, a gentleman, and an effective President of the United States and we thank him for that?

IS IT TRUE everything we just posted is totally TRUE?

Indiana Sees Improvement In The Fight Against The Opioid Epidemic

DECEMBER 1ST, 2018 TOWNSEND OUTLAW INDIANA, OPIOID CRISIS

An Indiana drug abuse commission has found that the state is seeing progress in the fight against the opioid epidemic, but there is still much that needs improvement.

The Indianapolis Business Journal reports that the Indiana Commission to Combat Drug Abuse’s report card found that the state saw a 10 percent drop in opioid painkillers prescribed in Indiana during the first eight months of 2018 and a drop in emergency room visits for drug overdoses.

Jim McClelland is Indiana’s executive director for drug prevention, treatment and enforcement. He says he believes the state is on the right track. McClelland says the state plans to open nine more treatment facilities this year. There has also been a growth in groups formed to address the opioid issue, as well as an increase in research.
