Men’s basketball falls at Drake, 81-65

0

Battling a winter storm to get to Des Moines, the University of Evansville men’s basketball team fell in its effort against Drake University by a final of 81-65 inside the Knapp Center on Saturday.

Ryan Taylor had a strong effort for UE (12-7, 2-4 MVC) as he notched 28 points on 9-of-15 shooting.  Dru Smith finished the day with 14 points while sophomore K.J. Riley had 13

“Give them credit, they got out of the gate very well and we never recovered,” Aces head coach Marty Simmons said.  “We just didn’t have much resistance today.  We have to execute better offensively and get out in transition.”

Originally scheduled to leave Friday, the Purple Aces did not depart Evansville until Saturday morning and headed directly to the game from the airport.

Nick McGlynn led Drake (11-8, 5-1 MVC) with a career-high 23 points while Graham Woodward had 13.  Five Bulldogs reached double figures.

Drake got off to a great start out of the gate as they recorded the first 11 points of the game.  The Bulldogs went 4-of-6 from the field in the opening four minutes as Nick McGlynn scored six early points.  Evansville missed its opening six attempts while having three shots blocked and turning it over twice.

Dru Smith got UE on the board with a runner down the lane five minutes in before Ryan Taylor hit his first shot on the next trip down the floor.  While the offense looked to be getting back on track, the Bulldogs continued to crank in their offensive game as they pushed the lead to as many as 18 points at 24-6 midway through the half.

Over the next several minutes, the Aces cut into the DU advantage.  UE missed its first six shots of the game, but hit 11 of the next 17 to make it a 10-point deficit at 36-26 inside of four minutes remaining in the half.  Smith moved into double figures during the run.

The Bulldogs countered as it rained three’s on their end.  Reed Timmer’s first long ball of the day ended a 7-0 run that put DU up 43-26.  Smith hit an Aces triple on the other end, but Drake had the answer on the other end and headed into the half up 46-29.  After getting within 10 points, the Aces connected on just 1 of their last 8 tries over the final three minutes.

Out of the break, Drake extended its lead to 20 for the first time as the opening four tallies of the second half gave them a 50-29 lead.  K.J. Riley scored on a transition feed from Blake Simmons for the Aces first basket of the half, but seconds later, Timmer was true from outside, giving the Bulldogs a 53-32 lead.

In a game of runs, the Aces scored the next five to get just a bit closer at 53-37, but a 7-1 run by Drake pushed their lead to 22 points seven minutes into the latter stanza.  The lead for Drake remained at 21 with under 9 minutes on the clock when the Aces start to push back.  A 6-0 run, capped off by a nice drive to the basketball by Simmons, cut the deficit to 66-51 with 7:10 remaining.  It was the closest UE had been in the second half.

As they had all day, Drake answered.  Another 5-0 run stretched the advantage back to 20 at the 6:11 mark.  The lead hovered around that margin over the final minutes with Drake completing the day with an 81-65 victory.

Indiana State is next up for the Aces as the teams clash on Wednesday in a 7 p.m. game inside the Ford Center.

0

The No. 4/10 Indiana University men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams earned a split in a dual meet against No. 8/4 Michigan on Saturday afternoon in Ann Arbor, Mich.

The No. 4 Hoosier men (7-0) recorded the team’s 20th-straight dual meet victory, taking down No. 8 Michigan, 170.5-129.5. The win for the IU men’s team at Michigan is the first since the 1980-81 season. The No. 10 Indiana women (3-4) fell to the No. 4-ranked Wolverines women’s squad, 180-120.

Combined, the Hoosiers won 16 individual events on the day, including a sweep of the diving events. Indiana also touched the wall first in three of the four relays against the Wolverines.

IU’s Blake Pieroni led the way for the Hoosier men, winning three individual events. The senior won the 50 freestyle with a season-best time of 19.60, the 100 free in 42.94 and the 200 free in a mark of 1:33.88. All three times were NCAA B cuts.

Vini Lanza had a nice showing for IU, winning the 200 butterfly (1:43.85) and the 200 IM (1:46.19) with NCAA B cut marks.

For the Hoosier women, Lilly King was dominant in the breaststroke events, sweeping the 100 and 200 with NCAA B cut times. The junior won the 100 in a time of 59.55 and the 200 in 2:10.95.

Five other Hoosier swimmers recorded individual wins on the day, all with NCAA B cut times. Mohamed Samy won the 200 backstroke in a time of 1:44.42, while Ian Finnerty touched first in the 100 breaststroke in 52.83. Newcomer Gabriel Fantoni won the 100 backstroke for IU with a time of 47.63.

On the women’s side, Ali Rockett won the 100 backstroke in a time of 53.16, while Christine Jensen took first in the 100 butterfly in 53.16.

In the diving well, the Hoosiers showcased their depth, sweeping all four events with three different winners each notching NCAA Zones qualifying scores. James Connor won the men’s 1-meter dive with a season-best total of 414.65, while Michael Hixon won the 3-meter with a score of 455.50.

For the IU women, Jessica Parratto swept both diving events. The redshirt junior won the 1-meter with a score of 328.40 and the 3-meter with a total of 334.50.

For the Hoosier women in the 200 medley relay, the team of Ali Rockett, Lilly King, Christine Jensen and Grace Haskett touched first with a time of 1:37.69. The IU men’s team also earned a victory, as the quartet of Gabriel Fantoni, Ian Finnerty, Vini Lanza and Ali Khalafalla touched in a time of 1:26.71.

The Indiana men’s team finished the meet with an exclamation point, as the 400 freestyle relay team of Mohamed Samy, Oliver Patrouch, Ali Khalafalla and Blake Pieroni touched the wall first in a time of 2:54.83.

The No. 4/10 Indiana swimming and diving teams will be back in action on Saturday, Jan. 20 when the Hoosiers host Big Ten and in-state rival Purdue for Senior Day at the Counsilman Billingsley Aquatic Center in Bloomington, Ind.

The meet is scheduled to begin at 10:30 a.m. ET and will be streamed live on BTN Plus. Live stats for the meet can be found at IUHoosiers.com.

Kentucky Receives Approval to Require Work From Medicaid Recipients

0

JANUARY 13TH, 2018  TYRONE MORRIS KENTUCKY

A major change is coming to Kentucky’s Medicaid program. Governor Matt Bevin announced federal approval of the state’s request to revamp the program.

Starting in July, able-bodied people on Medicaid who do not have children will be required to do what’s called community engagement to get their benefits.

That could be volunteer work, job training or school. Kentucky is the first state to try the new approach.

Bevin pushed back against Congressman John Yarmuth who called the move dangerous and irresponsible. Bevin says,”How is it dangerous to give someone an opportunity to make their life better? How is that dangerous? How is that irresponsible to expect people to be engaged in their own outcomes and to create an environment for people to have a chance to get healthier. How is that irresponsible?”

The new requirements do not apply to the elderly, the disabled and those with dependent children.

One-third of Kentuckians are on Medicaid.
