0

Investigators from the Indiana State Police have recently been able to communicate with Daniel and Kristen Muir, parents of 14-year-old Bryson Muir, who is still considered missing and endangered.

Today, ISP and Cass County Department of Child Services (DCS) were able to make a site visit at the Muir’s residence, located on the property of the Servant Leader’s Foundation in Logansport.

While the Muirs are beginning to show signs of cooperation, Bryson has still not been seen or located by investigators from either ISP or DCS.

This investigation is on-going and investigators are continuing to ask those with any information as to the whereabouts of Bryson Muir to call the ISP Post in Peru at 800-382-0689 or to call 911.

Solo exhibitions to accompany Black Art Workshop in USI McCutchan Art Center/Pace Galleries

0

n partnership with the Evansville African American Museum, the Kenneth P. McCutchan Art Center/Palmina F. and Stephen S. Pace (MAC/Pace) Galleries are hosting exhibitions by four artists with ties to the Museum now through Friday, August 30. The artists were selected by Tory Schnedel-Vyvoda, Curator at the Evansville African American Museum, and Dr. Greg Blair, USI Assistant Professor of Art and interim Director of MAC/Pace Galleries.  

Matthew Fields: Self Awareness IV: Developmental Expansion  

Fields is an Assistant Professor at the University of Arkansas, Pine Bluff who received his MFA from the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. He combines painting and sculpture, creating installations that function as existential questions for the artist; “I’m questioning where I come from, how I got here, who’s responsible for this, where do I belong, where does the world think I belong, who am I with, and who is with me?”  

Sophia Okotah: Now, with curiosity, … 

Born and raised in Ghana, Okotah is an Assistant Professor of Art and Design at USI. Earning her MFA from Indiana University, Okotah is a designer who prioritizes empathy and positive social change in her practice. “(My work) principally embraces themes surrounding the well-being of the individual, and it is inspired by observation, personal experiences and the identification of noteworthy social issues surrounding me.”  

Kenneth Randle: The Unknowns of Soulism 

Originally from St. Louis, Missouri, Randle is a MFA candidate at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, but during his artistic career, also held the title of Graphic and Communications Designer, Tattoo Artist and Gallery Coordinator. “Light is so important in my work because it gives visible identification to an invisible subject matter. Much of what I strive for as an artist is to bring forward that subject matter for deeper elaborations and contemplations.” 

Ayinde Rochon: Genesis Preview 

Rochon is a doctoral student at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign studying education policy, organization and leadership. His research focuses on efficacy and identity development of Black students at predominately White institutions. Rochon utilizes photography and filmmaking as a form of autoethnographic research, using his artwork to uplift Blackness while simultaneously giving members from globally underserved communities a platform to tell their story. 

Each artist featured in the MAC/Pace Galleries this summer is also participating in the Black Art Workshop Weekend being held in the Liberal Arts and Art Center buildings on Saturday and Sunday, June 29-30. A full list of activities happening during the workshop can be found on the website.  

A closing reception for the exhibition will be held at 4:30 p.m. Friday, August 30.

2024 schedule released for UE men’s soccer
The Purple Aces will play six home matches
 
EVANSVILLE, Ind. — The University of Evansville men’s soccer program has announced its 2024 schedule.
The 17-game regular season schedule for the Purple Aces will give them plenty of strong tests as they face six teams who appeared in the 2023 NCAA tournament. Of those six teams, one Western Michigan, made the Sweet 16, while the other, Indiana made the Elite Eight.
UE will preface the season with three preseason matches, two DI opponents who appeared in the NCAA tournament, and a perennial DIII regional power. Evansville hosts former Missouri Valley Conference-foe, SIUE, on August 10th. The Aces will renew an old Midwest Collegiate Conference rivalry with St. Louis at Robert R. Hermann Stadium on August 16th. UE finishes its preseason slate with a home match on August 19th against Hanover as part of Welcome Week for new Evansville students.
For the fourth straight season, the Aces begin the regular season at Bellarmine in Louisville, Ky. UE will be looking for its first result against the Knights since 2021 after back-to-back draws in 2022 and 2023. Evansville will stay on the road, traveling to Memphis for their first matchup in over a decade on August 25th. The Aces won their last match against the Tigers in 2011 with a 2-1 result. Memphis has had recent success, with back-to-back postseason appearances.
For their first home match of the regular season, UE will host the Mayor’s Cup against Southern Indiana on Sunday, September 1st. Evansville will celebrate its 50th Anniversary as a program Labor Day weekend. The weekend will begin with an Alumni Game on August 31st at Arad McCutchan Stadium, followed by an alumni banquet that evening. Anniversary festivities will wrap up with the latest edition of the Mayor’s Cup on Sunday. The Aces put together a decisive victory in 2023’s game with a 4-0 shutout at USI.
UE hosts one more game before hitting the road again. Evansville welcomes its second OVC opponent to Arad McCutchan Stadium on September 4th against Eastern Illinois. Evansville last played EIU in 2019, winning 1-0 at home.
The Aces play their final OVC opponent on September 6th on the road at Lindenwood. Last year’s match finished in a 2-2 draw in Evansville. UE continues its week road swing with a stop in Indianapolis on September 10th. The Aces will play Butler for the first time since 2019. The Bulldogs currently hold the all-time series record at 9-6-1.
Evansville starts conference play on September 14th by hosting the Drake Bulldogs. The Aces have won 3 out of the last 4 meetings with the Bulldogs, but Drake won last year’s match 2-1 on their home turf in Des Moines.
UE hits the road again for two weeks, traveling up I-69 to play Big Ten foe, Indiana. The Hoosiers appeared in the 2023 Elite 8 and defeated the Aces 2-0 in their last meeting. Evansville resumes conference play on the road for their first trip to Western Michigan since 1982 on September 22nd. In a hotly contested 2023 matchup, the Aces tied the eventual Sweet Sixteen Broncos 2-2 for WMU’s only conference draw of the season.
UE’s third road matchup is another team to make the 2023 postseason as Evansville faces Xavier on September 24th. The Musketeers defeated the Aces 3-1 in Evansville during their last match in the 2022 season. The fourth and final game of the road swing for UE will be a return to Valley play against Bradley on September 28th. The Aces defeated Bradley 1-0 at home last season.
After two weeks away, Evansville returns to Arad McCutchan Stadium against UIC. It will be the Flames first match as a member of the MVC in Southern Indiana after winning the Chicago matchup in 2023. Less than a week later, the Aces return to the road at Louisville as the Cardinals had another deep postseason run in 2023. Louisville bested UE 2-0 in Evansville last year in a closely contested match.
UE will play its first match in DeKalb against Northern Illinois on October 19th. Last fall, the Aces defeated the Huskies 2-0 in their first conference meeting in Evansville. UE finishes the month of October with its Senior Day game on October 25th hosting Bowling Green State. The Aces will celebrate 11 seniors in their second-to-last game at home.
Rounding out regular season play, Evansville will travel to Missouri State for the final time as MVC foes on November 1st. The Bears held on for a 2-1 win at UE in 2023 with a last-second save on All-MVC First Team forward Kai Phillip. The Aces finish conference play on November 6th at home against the Belmont Bruins. Three out of the last 4 contests between the two teams have ended in a draw, including last year’s 2-2 result.
Of the nine MVC teams, only six will make the MVC Tournament. Postseason play will begin with the quarterfinals at host sites on November 10th. The semifinals and finals will be hosted by the #1 seed and will take place on November 13th and November 16th.

IU Swimming and Diving Announces Four Transfer Additions

0

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Indiana head swimming coach Ray Looze officially announced Thursday (June 26) the addition of four All-America student-athletes for the 2024-25 season.

Champions of the Big Ten each of the last three seasons, the IU men will reload with three additions, including two Olympians.

Zalán Sárkány, an incoming junior from Hungary, comes to Bloomington as the reigning NCAA Champion in the 1,650-yard freestyle. Sárkány and Owen McDonald, another incoming junior, join IU after helping Arizona State win the program’s first NCAA Championship in 2024. McDonald posted top-six finishes in the 200 IM, 200-yard backstroke and 100-yard backstroke at the national meet.

Matt King becomes a Hoosier after two seasons removed from collegiate swimming – the most recent for an Olympic redshirt. King was the SEC 100-yard freestyle champion at Alabama in 2021 and then made the NCAA championship final as a Virginia Cavalier one year later. He also medaled at each of the last two World Aquatics Championships, most recently winning gold in in the 100-meter freestyle and bronze on two relays in Doha.

Both King (USA) and Sárkány (Hungary) have qualified for the 2024 Paris Olympics.

On the women’s side, the Hoosiers will add Miranda Grana from Guadalajara, Mexico, who earned All-America finishes in the 200-yard backstroke (sixth, 1:51.96) and 100-yard backstroke (eighth, 51.65) as a freshman at Texas A&M last season.

In the spring, Indiana announced the transfer addition of Towson’s Brian Benzing, who went on to earn All-America finishes in both breaststroke events at the NCAA Championships in March.

Otters offense arrives late in series opening defeat

0

EVANSVILLE, Ind. – Coming off a series win, the Evansville Otters dropped the opener to the Joliet Slammers Wednesday at Bosse Field 9-2.

The original first game was rescheduled yesterday due to rain. There will be two games played tomorrow to make up for the postponement.

Early in tonight’s contest, the Otters (16-24) fell behind early and the Slammers (18-22) took control in the middle innings.

Joliet tacked the first run of the game onto the scoreboard in the second frame with a fielder’s choice RBI. They added on with a pair of runs in the fourth and fifth frames. A solo home run in the seventh made it a 6-0 game and in the eighth the Slammers earned their final run of the night.

Evansville’s offense was quiet, but they avoided being shutout in the ninth inning. Jomar Reyes launched a two-run mammoth shot to left field, finalizing the scoring.

Alec Olund made his Otters debut today. Coming from the Tri-City ValleyCats in a trade, the designated hitter went one-for-four, scoring in the last inning.

Leading the offense, Giovanni DiGiacomo put more kerosene on his flaming bat today, totaling three hits including a double. Reyes also had a multi-hit night.

On the rubber, Tristan Harvin (2-2) took the loss. He recorded one out in the fifth inning before his day ended, giving up five runs on as many walks. Brett Sanchez (3-1) took the win.

With the twin bill, Evansville still has a chance to win the series tomorrow. There will be two seven-inning games. The first pitch is scheduled for 5:05 p.m. CT and the nightcap will occur approximately 30 minutes after the opener concludes. Coverage is available on the Otters Digital Network and FloBaseball.

UE BASEBALL NATIONALLY-RANKED IN FINAL COLLEGIATE BASEBALL POLLS

0
EVANSVILLE, Ind. –  The University of Evansville baseball team found itself nationally ranked in all five major national collegiate baseball polls on Wednesday after the final polls were released.
Here’s a look at where UE ranked in the various polls:
— 11th in the Perfect Game Top 25
— 15th in the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association Top 25
— 16th in the D1Baseball.com Top 25 (main poll used by media)
— 23rd in the Baseball America Top 25
— 23rd in the USA Today/Coaches Top 25
The No. 16 ranking in the D1Baseball.com Top 25 marks UE’s highest season-ending finish in the main media poll in the Division I level program history.
Evansville finished the 2024 season with a 39-26 overall record.  The Purple Aces swept all four games in the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament to claim the MVC’s automatic bid into the NCAA Tournament.  UE then won the program’s first-ever NCAA Regional Tournament title by winning the Greenville (N.C.) Regional to advance to the program’s first-ever NCAA Super Regional. 
In the Knoxville Super Regional, Evansville pushed the No. 1 national seed, Tennessee, to the brink of elimination, as the Purple Aces forced the ‘if necessary’ game three with a 10-8 victory over the Volunteers.  Tennessee suffered one of only two losses in the NCAA Tournament on its way to the 2024 national championship.
