Indiana State Police Forensic Scientist Melissa Oberg Named to Organization of Scientific Area Committees

0

Indianapolis, – Recently, the United States Department of Commerce, National Institute of Standards and Technology, announced the appointment of Indiana State Police (ISP) Forensic Scientist Melissa Oberg to the National Commission on Forensic Science.

Oberg has been selected to serve as a member of the Physics/Pattern Scientific Area Committee’s (SAC’S) Firearms & Toolmarks Subcommittee within the organization of Scientific Area Committee’s (OSAC). The appointment is an initial 3 year term.

The Organization of Scientific Area Committees for Forensic Science works to strengthen the nation’s use of forensic science by facilitating the development of technically sound forensic science standards and by promoting the adoption of those standards by the forensic science community.

These standards are written documents that define minimum requirements, best practices, standard protocols, and other guidance to help ensure that the results of forensic analysis are reliable and reproducible.

OSAC is administered by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), but the great majority of its more than 550 members are from other government agencies, academic institutions, and the private sector. These members have expertise in twenty-five specific forensic disciplines, as well as general expertise in scientific research, measurement science, statistics, law, and policy.

OSAC members work together to develop and evaluate forensic science standards via a transparent, consensus-based process that allows for participation and comment by all stakeholders.

The Firearms and Toolmarks Subcommittee focuses on standards and guidelines related to the examination of firearm and toolmark evidence. This includes the comparison of microscopic toolmarks on bullets, cartridge cases, and other ammunition components and may also include firearm function testing, serial number restoration, muzzle-to-object distance determination, tools, and toolmarks.

“Melissa’s appointment to the Organization of Scientific Area Committees is a credit to her technical expertise and professional standing in the forensic science community.  Her appointment serves as a fine example of the quality that our scientists employ as part of their job duties and responsibilities on a daily basis,” said Laboratory Division Commander, Major Steven Holland.  “She is very deserving of this appointment and we are pleased to see a representative from the Indiana State Police on such an important national level committee.”

Melissa works at the Indianapolis Laboratory Division and is a 10 year employee of the Indiana State Police.  She lives with her husband in Marion County.

0

Through two out of three rounds in the NKU Fall Collegiate Classic, the University of Evansville men’s golf team ranks in 14th place at Elks Run Golf Club.

Topping the list for the Purple Aces is Tyler Gray.  Gray rebounded from an opening-round tally of 78 to card a 3-over 74 in round two.  His 152 is tied for 35th on the leaderboard.  One behind him is Cameron Weyer.  His opening-round tally checked in at 77 before he dropped one stroke to a 76 in round two.  His 153 is tied for 41st.

Jessie Brumley is next.  He also excelled in the second round of 18.  Brumley notched an 81 to start the day off before recording a 78 to stand with a 159.  He is tied for 68th.  Robert Waggoner was next for the Aces.  Waggoner posted identical rounds of 83 on the day to finish with a 166.  Following him was Spencer Wagner, whose 2-round total finished at 168.

Noah Reese played as an individual and had the best day of action for UE.  Reese had back-to-back scores of 75 to rank in a tie for 29th with a 150.  Gabe Rohleder also played as an individual.  He scored an 85 to start the tournament, but tied for UE’s best round of the day in the second trip around the course, notching a 74.  His 159 is tied for 68th.

Butler had a pair of dominant team rounds as their scores of 287 and 285 gave them a 572 on Sunday.  The Bulldogs are 14 strokes ahead of Cal Poly and 19 in front of 3rd-place Oakland.

Patrick Allgeier of BU leads the way on the individual side.  He began the tourney with a 1-over 72 before registering a 3-under 68, the low round of the tournament, in round two.  His 140 is two ahead of Robert Morris’ David Szymanski.

Evansville is 14th in the team standings.  They are three behind Youngstown State and within shouting distance of Green Bay, trailing them by seven.

Rickey, Belding Spark USI Victory

0

University of Southern Indiana sophomore midfielder Sean Rickey (Columbia, Illinois) and senior midfielder Riley Belding (Columbus, Indiana) combined for a pair of first half goals as the Screaming Eagles soared to a 2-0 victory over the University of Wisconsin-Parkside Sunday afternoon at Strassweg Field. The Screaming Eagles rise to 3-4-0 overall and 1-4-0 in the GLVC, while UW-Parkside sees its record go to 2-6-0 overall and 2-4-0 in the league.

The victory put USI into the GLVC win column for the first time this season and broke a four-game losing streak.

Rickey and Belding took control in the first 20 minutes of the match. Rickey scored his first goal of the game and his third of the season at 14:55 for the 1-0 lead before increasing the margin to 2-0 with his fourth of the season at 19:54. Belding assisted on both tallies.

In the second half, USI continued to have the momentum on its side as the two first half goals became the margin of victory. The Eagles outshot the Rangers in the final stanza, 12-4, and in the match, 18-9. Each team had eight corner kicks in the 90 minutes.

Between the posts, USI senior goalkeeper Adam Zehme (Orland Park, Illinois) picked up his third win and first shutout of the year. Zehme blanked the Rangers, making a pair of saves and facing five shots.

USI returns to the road next week, traveling to Lewis University September 29 and the University of Illinois Springfield October 1. Lewis saw its record rose to 5-3-0 overall and 4-2-0 in the GLVC after defeating at McKendree University Sunday, 1-0, in overtime, while Illinois Springfield went to 4-3-1, 4-1-1 GLVC, following a 1-1 double-overtime tie at the University of Missouri-St. Louis.

The next homestand for the Eagles is in two weeks when they host Quincy University October 6 and Truman State University October 7 at Strassweg Field.

Eagles lose lead, fall in five to UW-Parkside

University of Southern Indiana Volleyball saw a two-set lead slip away Saturday as it suffered an 18-25, 22-25, 25-18, 25-19, 15-9 Great Lakes Valley Conference setback to visiting University of Wisconsin-Parkside at the Physical Activities Center.

The Screaming Eagles (3-9, 1-3 GLVC) jumped out to a commanding 19-9 lead in the opening set and held on for a seven-point victory before rallying from six down to upend the Rangers (5-7, 3-1 GLVC) in the second stanza. USI outscored UW-Parkside, 11-4, in the final 15 rallies of set 2 to grab the three-point win and 2-0 lead in the match.

UW-Parkside (5-7, 3-1 GLVC) outdistanced the Eagles following the intermission as it used a 16-5 run and a .345 attacking percentage to grab a seven-point triumph in the third set. The Rangers outscored USI 9-3 in the final 12 volleys of the fourth frame to break a 16-16 stalemate and even the match at 2-2.

In the decisive set, USI was limited to just five kills and a .000 attacking percentage as the Rangers surged into a 10-5 advantage. The Eagles trimmed the deficit to 12-9, but the Rangers won the final three points to earn the six-point, match-clinching victory.

Senior libero Shannon Farrell (Munster, Indiana) had 28 digs to lead the Eagles back row, while sophomore outside hitter Mikaila Humphrey (Floyd Knobs, Indiana) had a double-double with 10 kills and 10 digs.

Freshman setter Casey Cepicky (St. Louis, Missouri) also tallied a double-double with 35 assists and 11 digs, while sophomore middle hitter Elexis Coleman (Joliet, Illinois) had 12 kills, a .296 attacking percentage and four blocks.

USI concludes its four-match homestand Tuesday at 7 p.m. when it hosts Bellarmine University at the PAC. The Knights (10-2, 1-2 GLVC) were idle Saturday after falling at home to UW-Parkside in four sets Friday night.
