Chieko Yamada named MVC Women’s Tennis Athlete of the Week

0

Junior led UE to a 7-0 win over Missouri State

 

  1. ST.LOUIS – Junior Chieko Yamada helped the University of Evansville women’s tennis team to a 7-0 win over Missouri State on Friday and was honored today as the Missouri Valley Conference Women’s Tennis Athlete of the Week.

 

“This is really well-deserved.  Chieko has taken on the top player from every team we have played all season; even though she started out the season with some really tough matches, she has come back really strong over the last two months.  She has taken on the best players the MVC has to offer and has beaten most of them.”

 

Yamada helped the UE women’s tennis team end its home schedule in style, leading her team to a 7-0 win over Missouri State.  At top doubles, she teamed up with Theodora Soldatou to defeat Fati Khamissi and Ekaterina Donetskova by a 6-1 final.

 

She also got the job done in a dominating effort at #1 singles, earning the win over Alye Darter, 6-2, 6-1.

 

This weekend, the Purple Aces wrap up the regular season with matches at Drake and UNI.

UE men’s basketball adds Marty Hill

0

University of Evansville head men’s basketball coach Marty Simmons has announced the signing of Marty Hill to a National Letter of Intent to play for the Purple Aces next season.

 

Hill heads to Evansville from Northeast Community College in Nebraska.  The 6-5 guard is a native of Champlin, MN where he played at Champlin Park High School.

 

“Marty is a great young man with high character and great skill that will be a great addition to our program,” Aces head coach Marty Simmons said.  “He is a long, athletic and explosive player who will bring a great deal of versatility to us.”

 

Last season at Northeast CC, Hill scored 14.8 points per game while recording 4.0 rebounds and 1.7 assists.  He brings a solid shot from outside, shooting 42.7% from 3-point range.

 

“He is a gym rat who really wants to be coached as much as he can; he fits into our culture very well,” Simmons added.

The University of Evansville’s annual Engineering Excellence Day is set for Saturday, April 22, from 1:00-4:00 p.m. This event is free and open to the public.

From 1:00-3:00 p.m., projects designed and built by UE engineering student teams – including the Formula Car and Concrete Canoe – will be on display outside Ridgway University Center. UE engineering students will be on hand to explain how their projects were designed and created.

Real Talk, a session with UE engineering students, is planned from 3:00-4:00 p.m. in Room 100 in the Koch Center for Engineering and Science. During this activity, prospective students, parents, or anyone with an interest in engineering are welcome to ask the students about what it is like to be an engineering student at UE.

GOP Chairman Wayne Parke Calls For MUSGRAVE To Resign?

1

Earlier this afternoon we learned that Vanderburgh County GOP party Chairman Wayne Parke demanded that County Commissioner Cheryl Musgrave resign her position.

In an e-mail statement he sent to Commissioner Musgrave Mr. Parke stated “that he doesn’t believe that Commissioner Musgrave is performing her County Commissioner responsibilities in the best interest of the Vanderburgh County citizens”  He went on to add that, ” Vanderburgh County needs people in office that unite-not a divider who has their own personal agenda.”

He concluded that in his judgement,  Mrs. Musgrave has lost her credibility and trustworthiness to effectively serve as a County Commissioner.”

This is a developing story.

FOOTNOTE: We just posted ‘Readers Poll” question: Do you feel that County Commissioner Cheryl Musgrave should heed GOP Chairman Wayne Parke call for her to resign?

IS IT TRUE APRIL 18, 2017

10
IS IT TRUE that with the obsession about tweeting the #strongcity by the downtown glitterati it makes one wonder just what the heck these people mean when they are trying to convince themselves and others that Evansville is a #strongcity?…it is safe to assume that any city claiming to be strong should have a strong balance sheet and operate at a surplus?…another indicator of a strong city would be a minimal debt level?…finally a strong city should offer state of the art basic services to it’s citizens in every area of infrastructure?…the City of Evansville by those metrics is anything but a #strongcity?…when it comes to finances, the City is one change in accounting practices to being out of the time shifting practice of fluffing up the end of the year books by delaying payments to make balances look better?…Evansville has such high levels of debt that it is literally right up against it’s bonding limits for general funds?…that means that anything bought has to pay for itself or the bonds will have difficulty getting underwritten?
IS IT TRUE maybe the term #cityatrisk would be more appropriate for Evansville?…Evansville is a risk of having the EPA come to town and start fining them every day that the decrepit sewer system is not fixed?…Evansville is at risk of having more and more ancient water pipes either fail creating potholes in the streets or spewing brown oxidized water into people’s homes?…Evansville is at risk for a combined sewer overflow of raw sewage every time the rains come pouring down?…that creates #risks for disease and foul odor almost continuously?…the most pathetic thing about #cityatrisk is that the people in charge of the risky business don’t have the presence of mind to understand that the city has many risks to its citizens that degrade lifestyle and add to the cost of living?
 
IS IT TRUE at this point there are a number of other hashtags that could work well for Evansville?…here is a small collection for our readers to ponder #snegalcity,#dependsonboatmoneycity, #lowwagecity, #shrinkingcity, #exposedcity, and #notastrongcity?
IS IT TRUE last week we had the opportunity to visit the pre-construction site of the soon to be opened KC Marina Pointe Bar-Restaurant?…when finished this Bar-Restaurant will be something to behold?…that the KC Marina Pointe owner is going first class in installing kitchen and bar equipment in this upscale watering hole on the waterfront? …the newly built stage shall be the largest one of any Bar-Restaurant within a 200 mile radius and shall be equipped with the most up-to-date sound system available on the market today?…KC‘s Marina Pointe is installing around 40 big screen TVs throughout? …we were extremely surprised to see the extensive offerings listed on their menu?…when KC’s Marina Pointe is opened it shall draw people from not only from downtown and the Westside but people from all over the Tri-State?…when all said and done we predict that the Westside business leaders and bar owners will have some major regrets that they didn’t push members of the Appeals Board of  Area Planning Commission to approve Mr. Chesser‘s request to open a similar Bar-Restaurant on West Franklin Street?…we wonder if Mayor Winnecke would call this another good example of “explosive growth” within in the city limits of Evansville?…we urge you to drop by and ask owner Kerry Chesser or his project manager Chad Brady to give you a quick guided tour of this soon to be open river front establishment?  …this project was done without using one dine of taxpayers dollars or receiving a tax credit?

IS IT TRUE we are  told that many Westside Republicans and Independents are pleased to hear that Wadesville Republican Sen. Jim Tomes has a primary challenger for the 2018 election?   … the young,  well educated and personable Westside Republican Brady Hall plans to formally announce his candidacy for  State Senate District 49 seat on April 22?  …we predict that Senator Tomes is getting ready to experience the biggest political battle of his career?

Todays “READERS POLL” question is: Do you feel that City Council Finance Chairman Dan McGinn needs to  sit the record straight concerning the true financial status of the City?
