USI Falls To #12 Indianapolis In OT

0

The University of Southern Indiana men’s soccer team lost for the first time in 2018 Great Lakes Valley Conference action, dropping a 1-0 overtime decision to the 12th-ranked University of Indianapolis, Sunday afternoon in Indianapolis, Indiana. The Screaming Eagles see their record go to 8-2-1 overall and 6-1-1 GLVC, while the Greyhounds rise to 9-2-1, 5-2-1 GLVC.

USI and UIndy battled tirelessly and scoreless for 90 minutes before extra time was needed. The Greyhounds had the momentum during regulation, out shooting the Eagles, 17-3, but finally found the back of the USI goal at 1:22 into overtime for the 1-0 victory.

Eagles’ sophomore goalkeeper Justin Faas (Carmel, Indiana) took the loss despite a valiant effort between posts. Faas allowed the one goal after making a career-high eight saves in 91:22 of action.

Despite the loss, USI holds onto first place in the GLVC by a half-match, pending upon the conclusion of second-place Maryville University and the University of Missouri-St. Louis match which was being delayed due weather. A Maryville win would move the Saints into a tie with USI for first in the conference.

The Eagles start a four-game homestand to conclude the regular season at Strassweg Field, beginning with Maryville Friday at 7:30 p.m. The Saints was 6-2-2 overall and 5-1-1 in the GLVC before entering match with the University of Missouri-St. Louis today.

USI leads all-time series, 8-2-1, dating back to 2009 when the Saints joined the Eagles in the GLVC. USI, which is 3-1-1 versus the Saints in the last five, split matches with Maryville last year, falling during the regular season, 2-0, and winning, 2-1, in double overtime during the GLVC Tournament. .

Ian Manuel to Speak at UE on October 22

0

Ian Manuel will speak at the University of Evansville on Monday, October 22. The lecture, which is free and open to the public, begins at 7:00 p.m. in Room 100 in the Koch Center for Engineering and Science. Manuel will be discussing his experience of being sentenced to life imprisonment as a juvenile and his eventual release through the help of his victim turned advocate and the Equal Justice Initiative.

Manuel was 13 years old when he was sentenced to life for shooting Debbie Baigre, a young, white woman. He served 26 years of his sentence, much of it in solitary confinement due to his young age. Baigre became his supporter and friend, advocating for his early release. On November 10, 2016, Manuel was released from prison at the age of 40. His case paved the way for other groundbreaking legislation prohibiting life sentences for juveniles convicted of non-homicide offenses (Graham v. Florida, 2010). All juveniles sentenced to life in prison at that time in the US for non-homicide cases were children of color.

Manuel’s remarkable story is included in the bestselling book Just Mercy: A Story of Justice and Redemption, written by Bryan Stevenson, founder of the Equal Justice Initiative.

This event is co-sponsored by the University’s Psychology Club, Student Government Association, Black Student Union, and the Department of Law, Politics, and Society.

ADOPT A PET

“This guy is a bit of an “optical illusion.” His pictures make him look larger than he really is! He’s listed as a German Shepherd/Chow mix, but he has to also be mixed with some other mysterious smaller breed because he’s only 57 lbs. He’s 10 years old and appropriately laid-back for his age. Generally speaking he’s just a really happy boy! He has gotten along fine with other dogs in his time at VHS, but not so great with kitty cats. He also knows “sit” and “shake!” Charlie’s adoption fee is $110 and he’s ready to go home today neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped for that price. Contact Vanderburgh Humane at (812) 426-2563 for adoption details!

University of Southern Indiana junior Austin Nolan (Evansville, Indiana) claims the Conference Crossover title with a first-place finish on Saturday leading the Screaming Eagles squad to a 10th-place showing.

Nolan crossed the line first out of 282 runners in 24:33.8 over the 8-kilometer course. This puts him eighth on the all-time best leaderboards for USI after already occupying the sixth position after his performance from the 2017 GLVC Championship.

Freshman Titus Winders (Mansfield, Tennessee) was just behind Nolan in seventh in 24:54.7. This also puts the freshman into the top 25 leaderboard for USI, 20th in all-time bests.

Junior Nathan Hall (Springfield, Missouri) came next in 77th with a time of 26:12.1 while sophomore Gavin Prior (Mattoon, Illinois) followed suit in 84th with a time of 26:17.2. Rounding out scoring for USI was sophomore Wyat Harmon (Fredricktown, Ohio) who finished with a time of 26:21.4 in 89th-place.

Wrapping up the top seven for USI were sophomore Grady Wilkinson (Mt Carmel, Illinois) and senior Jesse Stanley (Boonville, Indiana) in 105th and 145th, respectively.

USI finished 10th out of 27 teams with a combined point total of 258. Western Colorado took the title with 84 points while Queens (N.C.) and Simon Fraser finished second and third with scores of 115 and 127, respectively.

TAKE NOTE:

  • Nolan finished first out of a loaded field that included seven nationally-ranked teams
  • Nolan places another top 10 all-time result for USI in 8th, also holds the sixth best time
  • Winders also cracks the top 25 all-time bests as a freshman at 20th
  • USI finished third out of the Midwest Region field, Saginaw Valley State and Walsh were just ahead in fourth and seventh
  • The Eagles were the top GLVC team ahead of Indianapolis, Lewis, and Illinois-Springfield

NEXT CHALLENGE:

USI will return home on Saturday, October 20 in Evansville where it’ll host the Festival Year Fiasco at Angel Mounds.

The University of Southern Indiana women’s soccer team rallied from a two-goal deficit to defeat the University of Indianapolis, 3-2, Sunday afternoon in Indianapolis, Indiana. USI goes to 6-5-2 overall and 4-3-1 GLVC, while UIndy watched its record go to 6-5-2, 3-3-2 GLVC.

The Screaming Eagles found themselves down 1-0 at the end of the opening half after the Greyhounds scored at the 12:10 mark. UIndy had the advantage for nearly all of the first 45 minutes, out shooting USI, 5-1.

In the second half, UIndy quickly increased the lead to 2-0 with a tally at 52:11 and seemed to have control of the match. USI responded with a pair of goal within six minutes to tie the match, 2-2.

The Eagles got on the board at 56:24 on a goal by sophomore forward Taylor McCormick (Rapid City, South Dakota) to make the score, 2-1. McCormick was assisted on her first goal of the season by sophomore forward Maggie Winter (St. Louis, Missouri).

USI picked up the equalizer at 62:29 when senior forward Ryley Hancock (Evansville, Indiana) found the back of the UIndy goal to even out the scoreboard, 2-2. Hancock was helped on her first tally of the fall by sophomore defender Madelyne Juenger (Columbia, Illinois). The 2-2 count would hold through the end of regulation and send the Eagles into overtime for the sixth time this season.

The Eagles only waited 3:29 into the extra period to get the game-winner when junior midfielder Courtney Spicer (Loveland, Ohio) headed in the “golden goal” for the 3-2 victory. Spicer headed in a corner kick from Juenger to send the Eagles home.

The Eagles start a four-game homestand to conclude the regular season at Strassweg Field, beginning with Maryville University Friday at 6 p.m. The Saints are 6-2-3 overall and 5-2-1 in the GLVC after winning, 3-0, over the University of Missouri-St. Louis.

The USI-Maryville all-time series is tied, 4-4-1, dating back to 2009 when the Saints joined the Eagles in the GLVC. USI lost last year’s match-up, 2-1, in double overtime and Maryville has the advantage in the last five match-ups, 3-1-1.
