The Purple Aces snapped a five-game losing skid on Friday night
CARBONDALE, Ill. – For the first time in over a month, the University of Evansville baseball team won its first game of an MVC series in a 6-3 victory over the Southern Illinois Salukis.
The Purple Aces played a clean and complete game on Friday night to open up their last Valley series away from home. Despite a two-run deficit early, UE’s offense was able to battle back, scoring six runs on 12 hits. Over half the lineup had two hits on Friday to help back up another strong pitching performance from starter Kenton Deverman (Dardenne Prairie, Mo. / Fort Zumwalt West HS). While Deverman didn’t record a strikeout for Evansville in seven innings, he didn’t allow a free base to the Salukis and threw 70 strikes to earn his third win of the season.
“It felt good to go through the clap line and address the team after this game,” said Head Coach Wes Carroll after the win. “We’re in playoff mode, and I think every pitch mattered to this club. Our defense made some plays, and seeing good Aces baseball was refreshing.
“I’m really proud of the club as it’s been a grind over the past month with injuries and changing lineups. Us coming here on the road in the Valley and playing a complete game, I’m really proud of them.”
It was a slow start on Friday night for the Aces as Southern Illinois capitalized early and had a two-run lead after only two innings. UE had hits in the top of the second with back-to-back base knocks from first baseman Jake McGhee (Fenton, Mo. / Christian Brothers Academy) and designated hitter Brodie Peart (Markham, Ontario). But with two outs already on the board for the two singles, McGhee and Peart were stranded on the base paths in the second.
The top of the third was when Evansville’s offense really got going as third baseman Drew Howard (Ferdinand, Ind. / Forest Park HS) led off the inning with a walk. Left fielder Charlie Longmeier (Seymour, Ind. / Seymour HS) followed up the walk with his first hit of the day, putting the Aces in scoring position with no outs on the board. UE’s next two batters didn’t leave home, adding two outs.
But two outs on the board wasn’t an issue for second baseman Cal McGinnis (Kimberly, Wis. / Bradley). McGinnis put a double down the right field line to tie the game up as both Howard and Longmeier scored. McGinnis almost scored himself as it looked like catcher Matt Flaherty (Lake Zurich, Ill. / Bellarmine) had put a home run past the left field wall. But after further review, the home run ball was called foul, and Flaherty was retired in five pitches.
Evansville eventually got its home run an inning later as shortstop Drew McConnell (Blue Springs, Mo. / Blue Springs HS) hit his fourth of the year out of left center field. McConnell’s home run gave the Aces their first lead of the day in a tight 3-2 game. UE’s defense kept Southern Illinois’ offense stifled over the next four innings with a double play in the fourth and not allowing more than a hit a frame in the next three.
In the top of the sixth, Evansville added some insurance runs, growing its lead to three. The inning began with another round of back-to-back singles from McGhee and Peart. This time, both runners scored for the Aces on two groundouts and an infield single from Howard. UE kept the Salukis quiet in the bottom half of the inning, taking a 5-2 lead into the final third of the night.
Evansville added one more run in the top of the eighth after an empty seventh inning for both sides. A single through the right side for McConnell, followed by a wild pitch, soon put the shortstop into scoring position. It was again Longmeier who came through for the Aces with his second RBI of the night on a double to right center, sending McConnell home.
UE held its four-run lead for only an out as Southern Illinois opened the bottom of the eighth with a solo home run to make it a 6-3 game. But Evansville’s defense locked in, picking up its second double play of the night and a flyout to end the inning. The Aces got a runner aboard in the top of the ninth as McGinnis had his second hit of the evening with a single through the right side. UE’s next two batters went down in order though, sending the defense back out onto the field.
Evansville’s defense quickly made short work of the Salukis in the bottom of the ninth. The Aces took down the SIU batters in order to earn the decisive 6-3 victory. With the win, UE ended a five-game losing streak and stays a game ahead of the Bradley Braves in the Valley standings. Evansville is back in action tomorrow night at Itchy Jones Stadium, where they will try to win the series early. First pitch on May 10 is set for 6 p.m.

On Aug. 24, the Indiana General Assembly declared “sine die,” effectively ending the 2025 legislative session. Out of the hundreds of bills that made it to Gov. Mike Braun’s desk, here are the favorite and least favorite in the eyes of Indiana lawmakers and other stakeholders from both sides of the aisle.
Indiana Chamber
David Ober, Indiana Chamber senior vice president of business operations and finance.
The 2025 legislative session concluded with many victories and losses for both parties, with no bill drawing more controversy than the state budget, House Bill 1001.
David Ober, Indiana Chamber senior vice president of business operations and finance, shared two of his favorite bills and one bill he opposed.
“Two longtime Indiana Chamber goals passed this session as aspects of comprehensive bills: reforming business personal property tax (in Senate Bill 1), which is key for Hoosier small businesses, and increasing the state’s cigarette and vaping taxes,” Ober said. “That’s long been a priority of ours to provide a needed improvement to workforce health, so we’re quite pleased that was put into the budget bill (HB 1001) as well.”
Another bill Ober found favorable was House Bill 1461, a bill that introduces a range of changes to Indiana’s transportation funding system, including new tax credits, increased local tax rates and expanded grant flexibility.
“House Bill 1461 is another favorite as it provides much-needed infrastructure funding for local governments by increasing flexibility in transportation taxes,” Ober said. “Providing local units with a means of securing additional revenue for road and bridge projects and enhancing the state’s transportation network will benefit businesses and citizens alike.”
While the Chamber sees many bills as positive, Ober found comfort in House Bill 1032 failing to make it through the session.
“Among the bills we opposed, the defeat of House Bill 1032 concerning foreign interests was significant. We understand the need to safeguard national security, but the bill was overly expansive in its treatment of business and property ownership by individuals and entities associated with a foreign adversary,” Ober said.
“As drafted, it risked discouraging legitimate foreign investment, displacing current employees and creating unnecessary disruptions to business operations and financial planning.”
Sen. Rodney Pol, D-Chesterton, was elected to the Indiana Senate in 2021, but despite being a relative newcomer, he has worked his way into the role of chair for the Indiana Senate Democratic caucus.
Pol takes great pride in his ability to work across the aisle.
“Persistence, patience and collaboration are necessities in that building,” said Pol.
His proudest moment of the session was saving two bills from dying: SB 409, a bill providing workplace protections for families with students that have Individualized Education Programs and attendance issues, and HB 1416, for which Pol proposed an amendment that requires gas stations to hang up human trafficking awareness signs.
“I challenged the industries that had concerns to work with Rep. Bartlett and I to keep the protections for victims alive while meeting their business concerns,” said Pol. “Working across the aisle, we were able to keep the protections and the teeth in the bill.”
However, the curse of being the minority party in a Statehouse run by a supermajority party seems to weigh on Pol, in particular with the passing of the controversial SB 1, a bill that will lower homestead tax credits, give money to charter schools and cut Indianapolis Public Schools funding.
“I can’t help but feel that I failed our local communities and school districts by not being able to stop the detrimental effects of SB 1 and the budget cuts,” said Pol.
Democrats all session also voiced their disapproval of SB 289, which made headlines for becoming the “anti-DEI” bill.
Pol gave insight into how, despite the passage of those two items, he is continuing to gain support for the Republican opposition.
“I’ve been hosting town halls, and the locals are incredibly worried, and you can’t help but feel like giving it your all wasn’t enough,” said Pol. “I don’t give up though, so it’s fuel for the fire going into the next session to right the ship.”
