BREAKING NEWS: THREE BASEBALL ACES EARN ABCA ALL-REGION HONORS
Full ABCA All-Region Teams:
June 12, 2024
THREE BASEBALL ACES EARN ABCA ALL-REGION HONORS
EVANSVILLE, Ind. – For the first time since 1996, the University of Evansville baseball team had three players earn All-Region honors from the American Baseball Coaches Association on Tuesday, as graduate outfielder Mark Shallenberger (St. Louis, Mo./Priory), senior designated hitter Kip Fougerousse (Linton, Ind./Linton-Stockton) and freshman pitcher Kenton Deverman (Dardenne Prairie, Mo./Fort Zumwalt West) all earned ABCA/Rawlings All-Region honors.
Shallenberger and Fougerousse both earned first-team All-Region honors, while Deverman earned second-team honors. For UE, it is the first time since 1996 when former UE greats Jamey Carroll, Ryan Brownlee, and Andy Noblitt all earned All-Region honors in which Evansville has had three players capture All-Region honors.
Shallenberger earned first-team All-Region honors in the outfield after a season in which he currently ranks in the NCAA’s Top 100 in 11 different offensive categories. He ranks 13th nationally in on-base percentage at .514, while also ranking among the nation’s best with a .374 average, a .687 slugging percentage, 21 doubles, 17 home runs, 64 RBI and 72 runs scored. He also set UE single-season records for both runs scored and hit-by-pitches (28), while posting an impressive 1.201 OPS offensively.
Fougerousse was named first-team All-Region at designated hitter after setting UE single-season records for both hits (94) and home runs (22) this season. Overall, Fougerousse hit .348 this year with 21 doubles, 22 home runs, and a triple among a school-record 94 hits, while boasting a .678 slugging percentage and 1.106 OPS. He also finished the year leading the Purple Aces with 71 RBI.
Deverman earned second-team All-Region honors and is the first UE freshman ever to earn ABCA/Rawlings All-Region honors after being named the MVC Freshman of the Year this season. Deverman captured Freshman All-America honors on Monday, and he currently leads all NCAA freshmen in both victories (nine) and innings pitched (111.0). Overall, Deverman went 9-2 with a 4.22 ERA in 18 appearances, including 16 starts, striking out 83 men against just 23 walks in 111.0 innings of work.
Evansville went 39-26 this season, advancing on to the 2024 NCAA Tournament by winning the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament title. The Purple Aces won the Greenville (N.C.) Regional Tournament and forced #1 national seed Tennessee to the “if necessary” game three of the Knoxville Super Regional in UE’s first-ever NCAA Super Regional Tournament appearance.

“IS IT TRUE” JUNE 11, 2024
We hope that today IT TRUE will provoke honest and open dialogue concerning issues that we, as responsible citizens of this community, need to address rationally and responsibly.
City-County Observer Comment Policy: Be kind to people. No personal attacks or harassment will be tolerated and will be removed from our site.
We understand that sometimes people don’t always agree and discussions may become a little heated. The use of offensive language and/or insults against commenters will not be tolerated and will be removed from our site.
IS IT TRUE that public employees working in the Vanderburgh County Civic Center are engaging in a “Workday Scavenger Hunt” to help make work more fun? …that the employees are searching hallways of the Civic Center for “Small Animal Figurines” that are hidden by other employees? …that the employees have also started a Civic Center “Tiny Animal Scavenger Hunt” Facebook group? …that since the Facebook group was created, it has grown to over 130 people, representing 16 different city and county departments. …that the department with the largest number of employees in the group is the County Clerk’s office with at least 8? …that we are sorry to report that several “Tiny Animals Figurines” have been taken from employees’ desks? …this is a developing story? …all we can say about this situation is “Peace Out”?
IS IT TRUE that the revelation in 2023 that the three entities that have partnered for more than a decade to do the economic development work for the City of Evansville, Vanderburgh County, and parts of the surrounding counties have been merged into a single organization convinced some people as a way to save money and concerned others about the concentration of efforts?…the merged entities consist of the Chamber of Commerce of Southwest Indiana that did traditional chamber activities like mixers, lobbying, and the Small Business Development Corporation (SBDC) to mentor micro businesses, the Growth Alliance for Greater Evansville (GAGE) that was formed to foster entrepreneurship in industries that pay a thriving wage. …that the Southwest Indiana Coalition for Economic Development which focused on the attraction of outside businesses was merged into a new entity called E-REP which stands for Evansville Regional Economic Partnership?… historically local government supported the two economic development entities and private businesses supported the Chamber of Commerce?
IS IT TRUE that “E-REP’s River Redevelopment” plan is short on numbers, costs, and sources? …that “The Southwest Indiana Regional Development Authority” which funds E-Rep, has the statutory authority to levy a tax on any project shortfall costs on the property owners in Vanderburgh, Warrick, Gibson, and Posey counties?
IS IT TRUE that several of our more politically savvy friends in Indy tell us that some of the movers and shakers in State government are saying that it looks like we now have four (4) governmental branches in Indiana? …that they are: Judicial, Executive, Legislative, and Regional Economic Development entities?
IS IT TRUE that from the first day of formation, E-REP with the help of several well-heed financial individuals and groups helped position those in political control to build a political and financial dynasty?
IS IT TRUE that Regional Economic Development Groups cover all 92 counties that have shared $500 million in state development grants?— although none will get close to the planned maximum of $75 million” Gov. Eric Holcomb also responded sharply to criticism from some Republican gubernatorial candidates charging that his administration is imposing a “top-down approach” on development efforts around the state. (Davies, State Affairs
IS IT TRUE that Democrat County Commission candidate Hope Fussner is getting a head start on the general election campaign season? …that she is using social media to sell t-shirts and recruit sign locations? …that Republican supporters of Cheryl Musgrave who supported Stephanie Terry in the general election for mayor are not likely to publicly support Fussner, but many of them will quietly be supporters?
IS IT TRUE we are told it’s not the best time to be Vanderburgh County Republican because of personality conflict issues generated by a couple of past and current GOP powerbrokers?

Southwest Indiana AHEC honors rural health partners
A vibrant rural healthcare system requires not only an ongoing commitment to the education of current employees and the future healthcare workforce, but also to creating reciprocal partnerships across the region to improve healthcare for all. Southwest Indiana Area Health Education Center (AHEC) recognizes the efforts of healthcare educators and providers who are helping achieve this mission.
2024 Partnership Matters Award
Southwest Indiana AHEC’s 2024 Partnership Matters Award was presented to Carol Collier-Smith, Chief Operating Officer at ECHO Community Healthcare, who has been an active AHEC Advisory Council member for nearly 10 years. Because of her leadership, medical, physician assistant and nurse practitioner students experience ECHO’s unique culture and mission during clinical rotations, while AHEC Scholars have learned about women’s health and midwife services through observation experiences.
Collier-Smith, who has worked at ECHO for nearly 24 years, plans to retire from her post in September. “Carol has always been a champion of AHEC, and her willingness to foster a reciprocal partnership between ECHO Community Healthcare Center and AHEC has been invaluable,” says Jane Friona, Executive Director of Southwest Indiana AHEC. “We recognize her for her tremendous engagement, commitment and support of the AHEC mission, and we wish her the best in her upcoming retirement.”
2024 Outstanding Preceptor Awards
Southwest Indiana AHEC presented Outstanding Preceptor Awards to Allyson Wehrheim, PA-C, and Erin Sievers, PA-C, both affiliated with Good Samaritan Hospital in Vincennes, Indiana. Through AHEC collaboration, both providers precept students from the University of Evansville Physician Assistant (PA) Program, primarily those interested in learning about primary health care in a rural/medically underserved community. Both preceptors, they typically precept about a dozen students each academic year.
Wehrheim is a Knox County native who graduated from Butler University with her MPAS. A recent student comments, “Allyson was an amazing preceptor!! She was nice and answered my questions. She was open to letting me see so many of her patients. I had a wonderful experience at this site.”
Sievers is also from Knox County. She completed her undergraduate studies and MPAS at Butler University. One of her students describes her as “fantastic,” adding, “She is a preceptor but also makes you feel very comfortable with performing new procedures and asking questions. The learning environment is very friendly, and I enjoyed and looked forward to driving to the site every single day.”
“After college, Wehrheim and Sievers both returned to their hometown of Vincennes to make a positive impact on the community,” says Friona. “Southwest Indiana AHEC recognizes their dedication to educating future health professionals by sharing their passion and clinical knowledge by precepting students, which is critical to the long-term health of rural communities.”
Southwest Indiana AHEC began as a regional center in 2008 and is hosted by the University of Southern Indiana in the College of Nursing and Health Professions. Southwest Indiana AHEC is part of a national network with a mission to improve health by leading the nation in the recruitment, training, and retention of a diverse health workforce for underserved communities.
