Eagles release 2016 cross country slate

0

2016 Cross Country Schedule: Men | Women

University of Southern Indiana Men’s and Women’s Cross Country announced it will host three meets as part of its 2016 schedule.

The Screaming Eagles open the season September 2 when they host the Stegemoller Classic at Angel Mounds. USI travels to East Lansing, Michigan, two weeks later to compete at the Spartan Invite before heading to Louisville, Kentucky, for the Greater Louisville Classic October 1.

USI’s final tune-up prior to the Great Lakes Valley Conference Championships is October 8 when the Eagles host the USI Regional Crossover at Angel Mounds.

The GLVC Championships are October 22 in Rolla, Missouri, while the NCAA II Midwest Region Championships return to Angel Mounds November 5 for the third consecutive year.

If the Eagles make successful runs at the regional meet, they will compete at the NCAA II National Championships November 19 in St. Leo, Florida.

USI’s men are in search of their 12th consecutive GLVC title and NCAA II Tournament appearance after finishing 10th at the NCAA II Championships a year ago. Seniors Chase Broughton (Marengo, Indiana) and Noah Lutz (Evansville, Indiana) are USI’s top returners after the graduations of Johnnie Guy (Palmyra, Indiana), Tyler Schickel (Poseyville, Indiana), and Josh Guy (Palmyra, Indiana).

Broughton was an All-Region honoree in cross country last year as well as a first-team All-American on the track this past May. Lutz finished 45th at the NCAA II Cross Country Championships a year ago after placing fourth at the GLVC Championships.

The Eagles’ women enter 2016 after claiming their fifth straight GLVC title a year ago and finishing 10th at the NCAA II Championships.

Junior Emily Roberts (Fredericktown, Ohio) returns to lead the Eagles after finishing fifth at the NCAA II Cross Country Championships last fall and second in the 10,000 meters at the NCAA II Outdoor Track & Field Championships in May. Roberts established herself as one of the top runners in the country last year by racking up three All-America honors and multiple All-Midwest Region awards.

USI is under the direction of 22-time GLVC Coach of the Year Mike Hillyard, who enters 20th season at the helm of the men’s and women’s cross country/track & field programs.

IS IT TRUE JULY 8, 2016

61

IS IT TRUE last nights deadly violence against the Dallas Police Department requires every American to reflect just how lawless our society can become without our Men and Women in uniform?   … every day these brave individuals risk their lives defending citizens against people that intend to do harm?  ...YOU BET IT IS TRUE!!!

IS IT TRUE let today be the first day in which each and every one of us begin to show our Law Enforcement Officers respect and appreciation for an outstanding job they performed  on a daily bais by the overwhelming  majority?

IS IT TRUE some officers do go over the line and take actions that are totally unacceptable and break the law?   …YOU BET IT IS TRUE!!!  … these Officers must be weeded out,  prosecuted and punished for their crimes against society and give a strong message to all, this behavior must stop and stop now?

IS IT TRUE our law enforcement officers strive every day  to keep our society a safe place to live, work and raise a family?  …our right to peacefully protest is a sacred and protected right?

IS IT TRUE we urge every one that sees our law enforcement officers over the next several days to show a sign of support by honking your horn and giving them a thumbs up,  thanking them for their efforts and helping in some way to let them know they are truly appreciated?

IS IT TRUE we urge the main stream media to pick up a similar theme in their future Editorials urging the public to show their support of local Law Enforcement Professionals?

IS IT TRUE a big supporter of the CCO ask us to post this comment on her behalf?   …she said: the Mosby, Weaver and McGinn amendment to a city ordinance that would only allow individuals with a grievance to come before the City Council to speak only if that individual would be recognized by the Council President and/or two or more City Council members is an insult to our 1st amendment rights?  … we wonder if your are in agreement with our posters comment?

IS IT TRUE that County Commissioner Candidate Sean Selby still doesn’t have the GOP Data Center Access due to the refusal of local party Republican party Chairman Wayne Parke?   …we been told by reliable sources that Mr. Parke  alleges thats he is supporting Mr. Selby in the Vanderburgh County Commissioner race?  …if  our information is correct then we expect Mr. Parke to “fork over” the information in the GOP Data Center so Mr. Selby can begin to market his campaign?

IS IT TRUE its also time for local GOP Chairman Wayne Parke to stop meeting with people who supported Sean Selby for County Commissioner in the recent GOP party caucus because they feel that Mr. Parke is harrassing them for supporting Mr. Selby?

IS IT TRUE  two Libertarians file last-minute on the Vanderburgh County general election ballot? … the candidates filed for County Coroner and a County Council at-large seat, respectively? …William Maxwell III has filed for the County Coroner and Austin Knapp is a candidate for County Council? …Maxwell works with American Medical Response for five years and Knapp currently works at Touch Point Food Service? .. .we predict that both Libertarians candidates will bring political drama to Coroner and County Council race?

FOOTNOTE:  “IS IT TRUE” will be posted on this coming Monday.

Todays READERS POLL question is:  Would you support a Trump and Pence ticket for President and Vice President of the United States?
