0

University of Southern Indiana Women’s Soccer has announced its 2018 season schedule, which will begin August 31 at Strassweg field as the Screaming Eagles play host to Walsh University.

After the home opener, USI hits the road for three games, starting with a trip to Cincinnati, Ohio, for a matchup versus NCAA Division I opponent Xavier University. The Eagles then play a neutral site match against Northern Michigan University September 6 in Hammond, Indiana, and wrap up non-conference competition September 8 at Purdue University Northwest.

The Eagles get Great Lakes Valley Conference play underway September 14 when hosting Drury University. USI follows with two road games and two more home games before traveling to two-time defending GLVC champion McKendree University September 30.

To break up the conference season, USI hosts Oakland City University October 2 before a pair of GLVC road contests. The Eagles return home October 12 against October 12 for four-straight home games, concluding the home schedule October 21 against William Jewell College.

USI ends its 18-game regular season with a road contest at Lewis University October 28. Games against Bellarmine University, Quincy University and McKendree are all matchups against 2017 NCAA Tournament teams.

The GLVC Tournament begins October 28 with home games at the higher seeds, with the semifinals and championship November 2-4 at a site to be determined. The NCAA II Tournament begins November 8 with the Final Four November 29-December 1.

USI loses the offense of All-GLVC selections in seniors Haley Rheinlander and Carlie Scales, but returns its top two scorers in sophomores Madelyne Juenger (Columbia, Illinois) and Maggie Winter (St. Louis, Missouri). Juenger was named All-GLVC and All-Midwest Region last season. The defense also returns senior goalkeeper Emily Hopkins (Greenfield, Indiana) as the Eagles look to make the GLVC Tournament for the third consecutive year in 2018.

 

Gov. Holcomb Statement on Meeting with Vice President Pence

0

Gov. Eric J. Holcomb met with Vice President Pence , while in Washington D.C. for the 2018 SelectUSA Summit. He offered the following statement following that meeting:

“It was great to catch up with the vice president in his office while I’m in Washington, D.C. for the SelectUSA Summit. We talked about Indiana’s job creation momentum, our state workforce initiatives, and my concerns about the impacts of trade tariffs on Indiana businesses. I was encouraged by the vice president’s comments about the progress that has been made in negotiating reciprocal trade agreements with our partners, especially relating to agriculture and manufacturing.

 

“After I met with the vice president, I was also heartened to learn that President Trump announced he would take short-term action to stop the practice of separating families who cross the border illegally. Members on both sides of the congressional aisle have the historic opportunity to fix our broken immigration system with respect for the rule of law. They need to act now.”

Local Inmates Transferring to Jefferson County Jail

Local Inmates Transferring to Jefferson County Jail

The Vanderburgh County Jail is partnering with Jefferson County to relieve some of the inmate overcrowding at the local facility.

Some inmates from Vanderburgh County will be transferred to a jail in Jefferson County. The Vanderburgh county board of commissioners unanimously approved the decision Tuesday.

They say jail populations tend to increase in the summer. The board says the partnership with Jefferson County isn’t a permanent solution – but it will help relieve a growing problem.

Bruce Ingelheim says, “There is going to have to be a construction project put in place and right now we are looking at funding trying to understand how much money we have got so we understand how big we can improve our own jail facility and construction projects usually take a couple years to complete so we are quite a ways down the road before we actually solve the problem.”

As an agreement between the two counties inmates from Jefferson County can also be moved and managed by the Vanderburgh County jail.

Indiana’s Gas Tax Set To Go Up Again On July 1

Indiana’s Gas Tax Set To Go Up Again On July 1

By Brynna Sentel
TheStatehouseFile.com

INDIANAPOLIS—As Hoosiers deal with the highest gasoline prices in several years, Indiana is adding another penny in taxes to every gallon starting July 1.

The 2017 law that added 10 cents in taxes to every gallon of gas purchased is the same one that allows the tax to continue to rise every year by as much as 1 cent per gallon.

Lawmakers passed House Enrolled Act 1002 to raise extra funds to repair the state’s crumbling roads and bridges. Last year on July 1, the gas tax rose from 18 to 28 cents per gallon. Now the new tax will be 29 cents.

But that increase is unlikely to have an impact on Hoosier pocketbooks, said Greg Seiter, public affairs manager of the AAA Hoosier Motor Club.

“I don’t envision that as having an adverse effect on travelers simply because of what they are seeing right now at the pump is much more dramatic than that tax increase itself,” Seiter said.

The average price of a gallon of gas today is $2.88, he said, compared to a year-ago cost of $2.18.

The money generated by the tax increase is expected to create $1.2 billion in additional revenue by 2024 through new taxes and fees, with $350 million of the revenue going to fund local roads and $850 million funding state roads and bridges.

In addition to higher gas taxes, drivers are also paying an extra $15 to register their vehicles with the state. People driving hybrids are paying an additional $50 fee while those with all-electric vehicles pay $150.
