Aces fall in opening match of Indiana Invitational

Marshall tops Evansville, 3-0

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Cassie Weaver posted 12 kills for Marshall University as the Thundering Herd earned a 3-0 win over the University of Evansville volleyball team on Friday evening in the opening match of the Indiana Invitational at University Gym.

Weaver was the lone player to record double digit kills in the match.  Evansville was led by sophomore Mildrelis Rodriguez, who posted eight kills.  She also notched seven digs.  Freshman Rachel Tam got better as play went on, finishing with six kills, four coming in the final set.  Olivia Goldstein led UE with 10 digs while Jelena Merseli had 13 assists.

“We started very slow and we played very young.  We wanted to give them an opportunity because they have been working so hard,” Aces head coach Manolo Concepcion said.  “Once we got more confidence, we were able to battle with them.  When we were able to pass, our offense was there.  Tomorrow, we want to get better with our decision-making and continue to emphasize good habits and playing within the system.”

An early run saw Marshall take control in the opening frame.  Up 4-2, the Thundering Herd scored 11 of the next 12 points to go up by a score of 15-3.  They would continue to add to that lead before finishing with the 25-8 win.  Cassie Weaver led MU with six kills in the set.

Evansville performed better in the second set as Mildrelis Rodriguez notched three kills.  After falling behind by a 9-4 score, the Aces got it in gear as kills by Rachel Tam and Elizabeth GIller saw UE get back within a pair at 9-7.  Marshall rebounded as they went up by a 20-11 margin and finished off with a 25-16 victory.

Deja Clark helped Evansville get off to a 4-2 start in the third game.  Her kill saw UE cap off scoring four of the first six tallies.  After the Herd tied it up at 4-4, the game was tied on 10 occasions leading to a 14-14 score.  MU recorded the next two points, but Evansville rallied back, tying it up at 16-16 before taking a 20-19 advantage.  The Herd got its groove back at that time, scoring the final six points of the match to finish the win.

Tomorrow, the Aces continue the Indiana Invitational against the host Hoosiers at 11 a.m. CT before taking on Northern Kentucky at 4 p.m. CT.

OTTERS WIN BIG AFTER LILLY KING PEP TALK

0

 The Evansville Otters took game one of the three game series against the Southern Illinois Miners nine to one. Lilly King’s pep talk must have spurred the Otters offense as they exploded for four home runs to help take down the division leaders.

Shane Weedman started for the Otters and moved to six and three after receiving the win. Weedman pitched for seven innings allowing one run and two hits. Weedman also had six strikeouts on the night. Rick Teasley started for the Miners and moved to seven and five after the loss. Teasley pitched for eight innings allowing 12 hits, nine runs and had nine strikeouts.

Jeff Gardner started the scoring with a two-run blast in the second. In the third, the Miners came back with their own home run to make it two to one. The Otters would answer back with two more home runs of their own. Christopher Riopedre hit a solo bomb, then Chris Sweeney blasted a three-run homer to make the game seven to one.

In the seventh, the Otters extended the lead eight to one. Julio Rodriguez brought in Denzel Richardson with a single. In the eightH, the Otters hit their fourth home run of the night. Chris Breen hit a solo bomb to make it nine to one.

The Otters (50-37) take on the Miners (58-30) in game two of the series Saturday, August 27. First pitch is scheduled for 6:35pm. Tickets available at www.evansvilleotters.com or by phone at 812-435-8686 ext. 21.

Man Accused Of Making Explosives In His Home Is Back In Jail

AUGUST 26TH, 2016

BRITNEY TAYLOR EVANSVILLE, INDIANA

 The man accused of making explosives in his home is back in jail, and being held without bond.

Police arrested Joseph Rayburn Thursday for violating probation, but are not saying why.

In December, Rayburn pleaded not guilty to several charges, including possession of a destructive device and possession of illegal drugs.

Sheriff’s deputies say he was making cherry bombs inside his home, and that he was getting shipments of powders in plastic bags.

Rayburn is due back in court September 1st, and is still set to stand trial October 5th.

McClure joined Habitat for Humanity 11 years ago, believing if everyone has opportunity, a town is truly wealthy.

HOW TO AVOID JURY SERVICE

HOW TO AVOID JURY SERVICE

by Jim Redwine

Just kidding; you can’t. However, if one should be so inclined as to try, the starting point would be Posey Circuit Court Bailiff and Posey Circuit and Superior Courts Jury Administrator Linda Fetcher. Linda just started her new position in June 2016. She took over from Dr. John Emhuff who served in both roles, summa cum laude, for fifteen years. Dr. John will be a tough act to follow. Linda has hit the ground running.

Linda and Gene Fetcher have been married fifty-four years and have three children, seven grandchildren and two great grandchildren. So, potential jury service evader, do not attempt some “the dog ate my homework” excuse. Linda has heard them all.

While Linda may live in Wadesville, Indiana where the gas pumps outnumber the residents. Do not assume she is not worldly. Linda has traveled to twenty foreign countries, several of them more than once, due to her involvement with Academic Year in America. Through this foreign student exchange program Linda has hosted more than thirty young people from numerous countries who lived with Linda and Gene during an academic year. Linda also has heard excuses in several languages. She has also gained valuable experience while serving as a volunteer board member of the Posey County Council on Aging.

Jurors in Posey County’s two courts are selected randomly via a computer program from Posey County residents who are at least eighteen years old. The lists are compiled automatically from the rolls of the Bureau of Motor Vehicles and the Indiana Department of Revenue.

From a general “venire” composed of these two groups Linda sends out 500 notices each month. Posey County has about seventeen thousand potential jurors and jury trials are not a common way to resolve legal matters. You can see that an opportunity to assist in the administration of justice is a rare thing, relax.

In Posey County these rare events usually last about two days. Posey County has not had a jury trial last more than two weeks in the thirty-five years I have been judge. Also, Indiana law allows a potential juror to defer her/his service for a year upon a simple written request which Linda brings to the judge’s attention.

Should you be so fortunate as to receive a greeting from Linda I think you should see it as an opportunity for an interesting and rewarding experience. If not, Linda can see that for at least a year the excitement is delayed. And by the way, if you are called to serve and do so Indiana law gives one a two-year exemption from future jury service.
