Trio of Aces legends named to MVC Women’s Soccer 25-year Team

Lambert, McKendree, Meek-Engelbrecht honored by conference

Three Aces’ Women’s Soccer legends were named to the Missouri Valley Conference’s Women’s Soccer 25-year Anniversary Team, it was announced Thursday in a release by the conference office.

Aces’ alums Kayla Lambert (2005-08), Krista McKendree (1998-01), and Krissy Meek-Engelbrecht (1996-99) were all selected to the 10 member team after a multi-stage process.

Lambert starred for Evansville from 2005 through 2008 earning 2005 Freshman of the Year honors after a 17-goal, 11-assist campaign. The three-time all-MVC selection and four-time all-region selection captured MVC Player of the Year honors and currently stands second in MVC history in career points.

Current Aces women’s soccer head coach Krista McKendree captured All-American honors in 2000 to add to her four all-MVC honors and 1999 Defensive Player of the Year and 2000 MVC Player of the Year awards. In McKendree’s four seasons in purple and white, her and her Aces teammates amassed 52 victories and earned three NCAA Tournament berths.

One of only two women’s soccer players in MVC history to be named conference player of the year three or more times, MVC hall-of-famer Meek-Engelbrecht captured Freshman of the Year honors in 1996 and was named all-MVC all four years.

With the 2017-18 athletic season marking the 45th anniversary of Title IX and the 25th anniversary of women’s sports, the Valley is naming 25-Year Anniversary Teams for each of the Valley’s sponsored women’s sports.

Team composition for each sport has been determined by a 25-person committee (two representatives from each MVC institution and a panel of five voters from the Conference office).  The team composition includes years in which league teams competed under the MVC umbrella during the past 25 years (1992-2017) and does not include competition from the current season.

The Missouri Valley Conference was founded in 1907 and is the nation’s second oldest Division I athletics conference.   Women’s sports were incorporated into the MVC in 1992, having previously competed under the Gateway Conference banner from 1982-92.   In August 2017, the Conference announced its 2018 Hall of Fame Class, which featured three women (in the six-person class).  A total of 22 women’s athletes, coaches and pioneers have been honored by the MVC as part of the Hall.

The voting panel determined a ‘Top 10’ from a list of 25 finalists.   Those top 10 honorees are listed below, and the top vote-getter is denoted.

Women’s Soccer (sponsorship from 1996-present):  Twelve different programs (including affiliate members) have sponsored women’s soccer in the Missouri Valley Conference including Arkansas-Little Rock (1998-99); Belmont (2000); Creighton (1996-2013); Drake (2002-present); Drury (1999-2004); Eastern Illinois (1996-98); Evansville (1996-present); Illinois State (1996-present); Indiana State (2000-present); Missouri State (1996-present); UNI (2000-present); and Valparaiso (1996-98; present)

Women fastest-growing population behind bars

IL for www.theindianalawyer.com

A first-of-its kind study finds women are the fastest-growing incarcerated population, with more than 219,000 behind bars in American jails and prisons.

A report released Thursday by the Prison Policy Initiative and the American Civil Liberties Union anyalzed how many women are under federal, state and local control and the kinds of offenses for which they were incarcerated.

Among the findings:

• 60 percent of women in local jails are unconvicted;

• 44 percent of incarcerated women are under local control;

• 36 percent of women in state prisons are incarcerated for offenses involving violence;

•  28 percent of women in state prisons are incarcerated for property offenses;

•  25 percent of women in state prisons are incarcerated for drug offenses

•  10 percent of women in state prisons are incarcerated for public order offenses such as drunken driving or vagrancy

•  Only 6 percent of incarcerated women are held in federal prisons

““In stark contrast to the total incarcerated population, where the state prison systems hold twice as many people as are held in jails, incarcerated women are nearly evenly split between state prisons and local jails,” the report says.

UE Men’s Soccer falls in Music City to Lipscomb

0
The University of Evansville men’s soccer team came out on the wrong end of a see-saw match with Lipscomb, losing on the road to the Bison, 4-2, in a non-conference match-up Wednesday night.

The Aces fell behind early, as a mistake on a throw-in allowed Lipscomb’s Ihaia Delaney to tally his 3rd goal of the season, putting UE down 1-0 in the match’s 12th minute.

Evansville sophomore goalkeeper Frederik Reimer (Vester  Hassing, Denmark) drew a yellow card at the 23:27 mark of the first half, and was soon replaced by junior Greg Niven (St. Louis, Mo.).

Junior midfielder Zac Blaydes (Midway, Ky.) would even things up for the Aces in the match’s 33rd minute, tallying his second goal of the season on a quick free kick to knot the game at one.

Then, just before intermission, freshman Adam Snow (Florence, Ky.) headed home a goal off of a pass from fellow first-year player Sam Bonano (Evansville, Ind.), giving UE a 2-1 advantage going into halftime. The tally was Snow’s fifth of the campaign.

However, the second half proved to be another story. Lipscomb knotted the game up two minutes into the second stanza on a turnover, which Logan Paynter turned into his sixth goal of the season, tying the match up at two.

That’s the way it would stay until the 65th minute, when Ivan Alvarado gave the Bison the lead on a header inside the box. His fourth tally of the season made the score 3-2.

Bennie Harris would cap the scoring with an insurance goal in the 79th minute for his first tally on the year, as Evansville fell 4-2, dropping them to 6-7 and 2 on the campaign. Lipscomb moves to 8-6.

The Aces go back into Missouri Valley Conference play this Saturday, as they stay on the road to face Drake in Des Moines, Iowa. Kick-off is at 3 pm (CT).

 

Harvey’s late goal pushes Aces past Indiana State

0
 Rabe makes eight saves in first collegiate start

 

TERRE HAUTE, Ind. – Searching for a road conference win, the University of Evansville women’s soccer team snapped its skid with a 2-1 victory over Indiana State in an MVC match in Terre Haute, Indiana on Wednesday night

“I thought the girls showed the fight and drive we were missing on Saturday,” said Aces head coach Krista McKendree.  “It’s always hard to win on the road, especially when our backs are against the wall as they are currently and I was happy for them to get a result. Overall we competed for the full 90 (minutes) and that is what we have been focusing on.”

Freshman midfielder Jayme-Lee Hunter and sophomore midfielder Mikayla Harvey each scored for the Aces. Between the posts, sophomore Julie Rabe made her first collegiate start in goal, earning the victory, making eight saves and allowing one goal. The Sycamores were led by Tessa Leong who recorded Indiana State’s lone goal.

In the seventh minute, Hunter opened the scoring as she curled a corner kick far post past the keeper to score off the set piece for the Wellington, New Zealand native’s fourth goal of the season.

Indiana State tied the match at one in the 19th minute as Tessa Leong scored on a shot from 40 yards out.

Much of the second half passed without many scoring chances for either side as possession was primarily controlled in the midfield.

The Aces found what would prove to be the game-winner in the 75th minute as Harvey unleashed a rocket from 30 yards out that flashed past the keeper for the Waterloo, Illinois native’s third goal of the season.

UE was out-shot by Indiana State, 17-5, but Evansville capitalized on both of its two shots on-goal, while the Sycamores scored just one of their nine shots on-frame.

The Aces return to Arad McCutchan Stadium for Senior Day on Saturday when Evansville takes on Missouri State at 3 p.m.
