Marcum reaches 1,000-Point Plateau As Eagles Best Indy

0

 INDIANAPOLIS—Senior guard Tanner Marcum (New Albany, Indiana) became the 16th player in program history to reach the 1,000-point plateau Saturday afternoon as University of Southern Indiana Women’s Basketball shrugged off a slow start for a 58-47 Great Lakes Valley Conference win over host University of Indianapolis.

After missing their first 10 shots and going just 1-for-14 from the field in the opening quarter, the Screaming Eagles rallied from an 8-2 deficit in the second frame to take a 25-20 halftime advantage.

USI (18-3, 10-1 GLVC) used an 11-0 run late in the second quarter to take a seven-point lead (25-20) they would not relinquish for the remainder of the contest.

UIndy (14-7, 8-3 GLVC) cut the Eagles’ lead to four points multiple times throughout the third period, but the Eagles had an answer each time the Greyhounds got close.

The Greyhounds trailed 40-36 at the end of the third quarter and 42-38 early in the fourth when USI put together a back-breaking 6-0 run that ended with the Eagles in front, 48-38, with just under six minutes to play in the contest. Junior forward Morgan Dahlstrom (Grayslake, Illinois) had the first two baskets in the rally, while Marcum capped off the run with a bucket.

USI’s lead shrunk to seven on a pair of occasions in the final six minutes, but back-to-back three-pointers by Marcum, who finished with 21 points, six rebounds and four steals, put the Eagles up 56-43 with two minutes to play.

USI rebounded from its slow start in the opening quarter to shoot 38.1 percent (24-63) from the field for the game, including 46.9 percent (23-49) in the final 30 minutes.

Behind a pair of double-doubles from Dahlstrom and senior forward Hannah Wascher (Rantoul, Illinois), the Eagles dominated the glass with a 46-30 rebounding advantage. Wascher finished with 12 points and 10 rebounds, while Dahlstrom added 10 points and 13 rebounds.

Junior guard Martha Burse had 21 points to pace the Greyhounds, who saw their four-game winning streak snapped after shooting 37.3 percent (19-51) from the field.

USI, which improved to 8-0 on the road this year, returns to action Thursday at 5:30 p.m. when it hosts Missouri University of Science & Technology at the Physical Activities Center. The Eagles also host No. 12 Drury University for Homecoming next Saturday at 1 p.m.

VCSO Regional Jail Officers Course Graduates 10 New Officers

0
The Vanderburgh County Sheriff’s Office graduated ten (10) new confinement officers from the Indiana Law Enforcement Basic Jail Officers Course this afternoon. Officers from Perry, Warrick and Vanderburgh counties completed the Basic Jail Officer’s Course.
In 2006, the Indiana Law Enforcement Training Board approved the Vanderburgh County Sheriff’s Office as a regional training site for this forty (40) hour course, which is required of all newly hired jail officers during their first year. The new officers were instructed in subjects such as: ethics, tactical communication, report writing, jail operations, physical security, searches, evidence gathering, booking and admissions, blood borne pathogens, cultural awareness, suicide prevention, mental illness and legal issues.

The regional officers returned to their respective agencies this week in order to continue additional facility specific training. Vanderburgh County Sheriff’s Office confinement officers will spend the next two weeks attending additional classroom and practical training, which will include topics such as: housing unit supervision, gang identification, defensive and physical tactics, record keeping and practical scenarios. Upon completion of the classroom training, the new confinement officers will be assigned to a Field Training Officer (FTO) for an additional ten (10) weeks before being permitted to work alone.

At any given time the Sheriff’s Office houses over 500 inmates and nearly 100 work release participants within the confines of a 156,722 square foot facility. As an Indiana Law Enforcement Academy accredited provider, the Sheriff’s Office accepts applications from outside agencies to attend the Basic Jail Officers Course at our facility.

UE Hesburgh Lecturer to Discuss Reformation Era and Makings of Modernity

UE Hesburgh Lecturer to Discuss Reformation Era and Makings of Modernity

The University of Evansville will host the fifth annual Hesburgh Lecture in collaboration with the Notre Dame Club of the Tri-State, on Friday, February 24. The lecture will begin at 7:00 p.m. in Room 170 (Smythe Lecture Hall) of UE’s Schroeder School of Business Building.

This year’s guest speaker will be Brad D. Gregory, director of Notre Dame’s Institute for Advanced Study. His topic will be “The Reformation Era and the Makings of Modernity.”  Gregory will discuss ways in which conflicts of the Reformation era prompted unintended historical developments that created the modern Western world, and without which we cannot understand contemporary problems such as the presumed conflict between science and religion, unending moral disagreements, global climate change, and the secularization of knowledge.

Gregory is a professor of history and holds the Dorothy G. Griffin Chair in the Department of History at Notre Dame. Together with Randall Zachman, he serves as the North American editor of the Archive for Reformation History. Gregory earned his PhD in history from Princeton University and his MA in history from the University of Arizona. He received his licentiate degrees in philosophy from the Higher Institute of Philosophy of the Catholic University of Leuven, Belgium. He earned his BA degree in history from the Catholic University of Leuven, and his BS in history from Utah State University. He has been awarded the Hiett Prize in the Humanities from the Dallas Institute of Humanities and Culture, and the Kaneb Teaching Award from the College of Arts and Letters, Notre Dame.

Gregory’s research centers on Christianity in the Reformation era, including magisterial Protestantism, radical Protestantism, and Roman Catholicism approached comparatively and cross-confessionally. He is also interested in the long-term ideological influences and institutional consequences of the Reformation era on the making of the modern Western world. Another of his areas of research and interest is methodology and theory in the understanding of religion and history

Named for Rev. Theodore M. Hesburgh, president emeritus of the University of Notre Dame, the Hesburgh Lecture Series is a major community outreach program of Notre Dame alumni clubs around the nation. The series features Notre Dame faculty members discussing topics ranging from art and architecture to economics to social concerns.

University of Southern Indiana Women’s Track & Field was again fueled by sophomore Katie Henrickson (Boonville, Indiana) in the mile and a foursome of distance runners in the 3,000-meters at the Tom Hathaway Distance Classic hosted by the University of Indianapolis.

Her third win in four events this winter, Henrickson’s time of 5 minutes, 14.59 seconds earned the top spot in the mile and improved her season best in the event by nearly 13 seconds. Sophomore Miranda Coats (Sellersburg, Indiana) finished the mile in 12th with a time of 5:49.89.

Senior Carly Whitesell (Zionzville, Indiana) earned her first victory of the season in the 3,000-meters, finishing in 10:36.74. Senior Cathryn Peter (Tell City, Indiana) also sealed a top-five finish, placing fourth with a time of 10:52.94. Freshman Ellie Tjelmeland (Springfield, Illinois) and junior Christina Kropid (Springfield, Illinois) rounded out the Screaming Eagle finishers in sixth and seventh, respectively.

Improving her season best in the event by three seconds, freshman Ashley Lawhorn (Frankfort, Kentucky) recorded a fifth-place finish in the 800-meters with a time of 2:37.11.

Sophomore Hilary Paxson (Liberty Center, Indiana) continued to lead the Eagles in throwing events with finishes of sixth and seventh in the shot put and weight throw. Paxson’s toss of 34 feet, 08.50 inches in the shot put and 45’08.5″ were good enough to earn her second and third top-10 finishes of the season.

Two Eagles broke the top-10 of the pole vault with senior Crystal Blair (Bloomington, Indiana) and freshman Rylie Smith (Floyd Knobs, Indiana) finishing fifth and eighth. Respectively. Blair cleared a season best 10’02.00″, while Smith’s top height was 9’02.25″.
