USI ties #8 Bellarmine in 2 OT

0

The University of Southern Indiana women’s soccer team tied eighth-ranked Bellarmine University, 0-0, in double-overtime Sunday afternoon in Louisville, Kentucky. USI goes to 3-2-1 overall and 1-1-1 in GLVC play, while Bellarmine ends the match 2-1-2 overall, 1-1-2 in the league.

USI junior goalkeeper Emily Hopkins (Greenfield, Indiana) led the way for the Eagles and recorded her second shutout of the season. Hopkins, who has 5.2 career shutouts during her tenure at USI, faced 15 shots and made four saves in blanking the Knights in the double-overtime tie.

The Screaming Eagles’ freshman forward Taylor McCormick (Rapid City, Iowa) looked to have the game-winning goal with 2:30 to play in the second overtime, but USI was called for being offside. The play was as close as either team would come to scoring in the 110 minute match.

Overall statistically, Bellarmine outshot USI, 15-12, and had a 6-3 advantage in corner kicks. Both squads had four shots on-goal in the match.

USI opens the 2017 home schedule Friday at 5 p.m. when it hosts the University of Indianapolis to start a two-match homestand at Strassweg Field. The UIndy Greyhounds saw its record to 4-2-0 overall and 3-1-0 GLVC after losing to McKendree University, 2-1, in double-overtime this afternoon in Indianapolis.

The Eagles trail the Greyhounds in the overall series record, 12-10-0, but has won the last two meetings, including last year’s 1-0 win on UIndy’s home turf.

The short two-match homestand concludes next Sunday when the Eagles host the University of Wisconsin-Parkside. USI trails the all-time series with UW-Parkside, 13-9-2, after losing last year’s match-up at Strassweg Field, 1-0.

0

SEPTEMBER 17TH, 2017  BRI WILLIAMS INDIANA

 US Education Secretary Betsy Devos will be visiting the Hoosier state this week. It’s just one stop on her first ever back to school tour called The Rethink School Tour.

The tour aims to showcase the innovative work school across America are doing along with highlighting creative ways educators are better preparing students for the working world.

Devos has frequently held Indiana up as a model for education, especially around choice-based school reform like charter schools and taxpayer-funded vouchers for private school tuition.

The Rethink School Tour will start in Wyoming and head to Colorado, Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri, and Indiana.

Congressman Larry Bucshon Deputy Chief of Staff and Communications Director Nick McGee To Move On

Dear City County Observer:

This is certainly a bittersweet email to send. After five fulfilling years serving Dr. Bucshon and the Hoosiers of Indiana’s Eighth District, my tenure comes to an end today.

What began as summer internship in Indiana, eventually brought me to the nation’s capital for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to work for a true public servant and an awesome boss. I can’t thank Dr. Bucshon enough for taking a (massive) risk by giving me a chance. We accomplished a lot together and, more importantly, had a hell of a time doing it.

I’m grateful for the opportunity to work with and alongside some tremendous people along the way who’ve helped me grow professionally and personally.

I’m know this is a temporary farewell and our paths will cross again soon. In the meantime, please don’t hesitate to reach out if I can be of help or to just stay in touch. My personal cell phone number is 812-457-5231 and personal email is nickcmcgee@gmail.com. As of 5pm today, I will no longer have access to my house email address.

With respect to my next steps, I start a new opportunity as Director of Public Affairs at Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA) on Monday, September 18.

Thanks for everything. Talk soon.

Nick McGee

Kentucky Downs pays out record $8.6 million in purses; Daily average topping $1.7 million leads North America

‘We are coming off another record-breaking meet, and among the critical influences is the overwhelming support shown by the horsemen and horseplayers’ — Ted Nicholson
FRANKLIN, Ky. (Saturday, September 16, 2017) — Kentucky Downs paid out a record $8,619,000 in purses and Kentucky-bred purse supplements at its meet that concluded Thursday.
The average daily purses of $1,723,800 for the five-date meet is the highest average in North America, made possible by the track’s historical horse racing operation that marries the sport’s parimutuel structure with electronic games based on the results of previously-run races.
That’s up 9.3 percent over last year’s purse total of $7,885,979 for an average of $1,577,195 a day, which in turn was up 19 percent over 2015.
Kentucky Downs also had North America’s highest guaranteed purse payment to those finishing sixth through 12th place in a race at $750.
In addition, Kentucky Downs, in an agreement with the Kentucky division of the Horsemen’s Benevolent & Protective Association, moved $1.65 million in purses and Kentucky Thoroughbred Development Fund purse supplements to Ellis Park, helping that track offer the best purses in its history.
“We take to heart that our horsemen are our partners, and Kentucky Downs is thrilled to pay out record purses,” said Ted Nicholson, Kentucky Downs’ senior vice president and general manager. “We appreciate the rising cost of owning, training and racing horses. For some horse owners, winning one race or even finishing second at Kentucky Downs can carry them for the year.
“We are coming off another record-breaking meet, and among the critical influences that makes that possible is the overwhelming support for our racing program shown by the horsemen and horseplayers. For the horsemen, we offer record-high purses. For the horseplayers, we offer the lowest overall takeout rates on wagering in the country.
“We are proud to be the Kentucky trailblazer in using historical horse racing to become a national leader and to help improve the commonwealth’s entire racing circuit. The past two Ellis Park meets have shown how tracks and horsemen working together can accomplish great things to keep horses and jobs in the state, and that puts money into the massive agribusiness dependent on the health of Kentucky horse racing.”
For the second straight year, wagering on Kentucky Downs was up 34 percent.
Wagering from all sources on the track’s 2017 meet that ended Thursday totaled $30,246,887.68. That’s an average of $6,049,377.52 a day and reflects an increase of 34.19 percent over the $22,540,761.22 bet in 2016. Off-track betting on the meet was $29,217,935.98, up 35.2 percent from the $21,611,352.02 wagered last year.
A total of 522 horses ran at the meet for an average of 10.4 per race, again a national leader.
“Kentucky Downs is a special place. Money makes the mare go round, and everybody is going to Kentucky Downs for huge purses,” said Ken Ramsey, who won his fifth straight owners title at the track and who also is an avid horseplayer. “The takeout is very generous to the horseplayers, and that’s why Kentucky Downs is ranked the No. 1 horseplayer track in America.
“There were horses I could have run at Saratoga, and we brought them down to run at the meet because we try to help the state of Kentucky,” said Ramsey, who won four races with a meet-high 17 starters. “These were top-class horses and we ended up winning three stakes and a maiden-special race. You have to bring good horses that can win at Saratoga down to Kentucky Downs to get the money.”
