The University of Evansville softball team will be playing for a Missouri Valley Conference tournament berth against the Missouri State Bears at Cooper Stadium this weekend. The games will take place on Saturday, May 3 and Sunday, May 4, with both days starting at 12:00 p.m.

The Purple Aces will need to sweep the Bears this weekend in order to make the conference tournament. Evansville sits at 18-30 overall with a 6-17 MVC record. Missouri State is currently 25-25 and has an 8-15 MVC record.

Sunday’s game will be senior day for the four Evansville seniors graduating this year. UE will be honoring Emily Morris, Niki Rahming, Taylor Perry and Kacey Rogers.

The Bears will enter the weekend series behind power hitting sophomore Bethany Sullinger and junior pitcher/outfielder Chelsea Jones. Sullinger is hitting .306 on the season, has six homeruns and 40 RBIs and six stolen bases. Sullinger has a total of 10 walks this season and has six hit-by-pitches. Chelsea Jones is hitting .287, has four homeruns, 29 RBIs, a .336 on base percentage and 12 walks.

Erin Struemph and Jones are the Bears two best pitchers. Struemph has thrown a team leading 138.0 innings, struck out 134 batters and has a 3.30 ERA with a 10-11 record. Jones has struck out 50 batters in 111.0 innings to go along with six complete games, leading to a 9-8 record and a 3.59 ERA.

Evansville comes in behind Megan Gurski, Chandra Parr and Kayla Fortner, who have been the Purple Aces best offensive threats all season long. Gurski is hitting a team leading .359 to go along with seven homeruns, 27 RBIs and six walks. Chandra Parr is second on the team with a .305 batting average, is tied for second in MVC play with 10 homeruns and has 29 RBI. Parr also has a team leading six HBP and has been walked 14 times. Fortner has had a solid season for UE as well, as the junior is hitting .277, has been walked 29 times and has five hit by pitches. Fortner has nine homeruns and 26 RBIs.

Pitching for UE will be Gurski and Briana Combs. Gurski has thrown 139.0 innings, has struck out 119 and has two saves leading to a 9-13 record and a 3.73 ERA. The freshman Combs has a 5.39 ERA and a 4-5 record in 49.1 innings and 19 strikeouts.

If the Aces sweep the Bears this weekend, then they will be traveling to the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament next weekend in Normal, Illinois, with their opponent to be announced next week.

Brantley Gilbert and Country Openers “Just Getting Started”

0

BrantleyA sold-out crowd packed the Ford Center on Friday night for Brantley Gilbert. Thomas Rhett and Eric Paslay, showing once more that Evansville loves their Country music. In a candid moment- a moment that felt as if it summed up the entire night-was when Gilbert spoke to the crowd of how he was recognizing some familiar faces from earlier in his career. “Maybe this means I am getting old,” he joked. He paused for a moment before cracking smile, “Naw, we’re just getting started!” The crowd raised their drinks and cheered in reply.

With two of the hottest acts in country, Eric Paslay and Thomas Rhett, joining Gilbert on stage, it certainly feels as if things are just getting started for all three artists. Paslay, who found success as a songwriter from artists like Lady Antebellum and Jake Owen, just released his first self-titled album in February. His song, “Friday Night” topped charts earlier this year and still remains popular on the radio. For Thomas Rhett, things can only grow bigger from here, with big hits like, “It Goes Like This,” and “Something To Do With My Hands,” and while Brantley has already found great success, he promises fans an even better ride from here.

“It was another solid line-up tonight with Brantley Gilbert coming to Evansville for the first time, and Eric and Thomas returning from previous tours,” said Scott Schoenike, Executive Director. Paslay will be returning to Evansville this summer for Victory Theatre’s Summer Country Nights Concert Series on July 12.

The Ford Center winds down a very active event season with upcoming shows Disney on Ice May 15-18. An Evening With Chicago May 21, and Gala of Royal Horses June 1.

Appeals panel reverses judgment favoring insurer

0

By: Dave Stafford, www.theindianalawyer.com

gavelA trial court erred in granting summary judgment to an insurance company that argued a driver injured in a car crash could not collect on an underinsured motorist policy because she received payments from other sources in excess of her policy limits.

The Indiana Court of Appeals Friday reversed Porter Superior Judge Roger V. Bradford’s grant of summary judgment in Christine Anderson v. Indiana Insurance Company, a member of Liberty Mutual Group, 64A03-1309-CT-359. Anderson was injured when her car was struck by a motorist during the course of her employment.

She received more than $81,000 in worker’s compensation benefits and $25,000 from the other motorist’s insurer, but she had a policy with Indiana Insurance with an underinsured motorist coverage limit of $100,000.

Because she had received more than her coverage limit, Indiana Insurance refused to pay, and Bradford found for the insurer when Anderson sued.

The appeals panel turned to a recent ruling, Justice v. Am. Family Mut. Ins. Co. (filed March 13, 2014), Ind. No. 49S02-1303-PL-221, to determine whether the policy was consistent with state statutes.

“Based upon Justice, we conclude that the trial court erred in finding that Anderson could not recover anything from Indiana Insurance. In other words, if (the underinsured motorist) had carried the required amount of liability insurance, depending on her total damages Anderson may have received $50,000 in addition to the $81,166.15, and the purpose of the  uninsured/underinsured motorist statute is to put her in that position,” Judge Elaine Brown wrote for the court.

“In light of that statutory purpose, we conclude that Anderson may be entitled to recover the remaining $25,000 from Indiana Insurance depending on her total damages. … For the foregoing reasons, we reverse the trial court’s grant of summary judgment to Indiana Insurance and remand for proceedings consistent with this opinion.”

McNeil campaign ready for Primary

1

mcneilWith the primary campaign season ending next week, congressional candidate Andrew McNeil has every reason to expect a positive result on election night.

“We’ve given it our all and done all that we can do.” Andrew pointed out to an enthusiastic group of campaign volunteers over the weekend. “We squeezed every drop out of every day and every dollar we have had so far. Everything that we’ve done has multiplied tremendously and our momentum just keeps building.”

What began over 6 months ago as plan from a political newcomer to represent conservative values in the 8th district has grown into a full time campaign complete with candidate forums, TV appearances, district-wide news coverage, thousands of introductions, and a network of volunteers canvassing every county.

McNeil’s campaign is a grassroots effort combining direct interaction with constituents and daily updates of his whereabouts on social media platforms. The campaign culminated in his 19 Days for 19 Counties tour which saw Andrew devote one entire day to each county in the district. Andrew traveled over 3,000 miles during the month long tour while stopping in over 50 cities and towns in the 8th District to meet one-on-one with the voters. All told, Andrew personally stopped at more than 350 businesses and visited nearly 1000 homes over the last month alone.  He met with hundreds of other Hoosiers at Lincoln Day dinners, meet and greets, candidate forums and restaurants across the district.

When asked what he wanted voters to keep in mind for the May 6th primary, Andrew responded, “If you want someone who will cherish your values, and fight for constitutional limited government then vote for me. If you want a family man with a common sense approach to problems then vote for me. If you want someone who will stand on principle regardless of party bosses or the mainstream media then vote for me. Finally if you want someone who will never forget that he works for you then please vote for Andrew McNeil for US Congress.”

Evansville Police arrested 47 year old STARLA GASAWAY on several charges after she kicked an officer several times while she was being arrested for public intoxication and disorderly conduct.

Officers were in the 2900 block of Jefferson at 1:50am on Thursday investigating a family dispute involving Gasaway and her husband. Her husband agreed leave for the night, but Gasaway would not comply with officers’ request to stop yelling and to go inside her residence.
When an officer tried to arrest her, Gasaway ran into her home and refused to cooperate with the officer. Officers were able to handcuff Gasaway, but when they tried to get her to standup, she kicked one of the officers. As the officers tried to place Gasaway into the patrol car, she again kicked the officer.
The officers were able to place her into the car without further incident and she was taken to jail.
Gasaway was charged with Battery on Law Enforcement CL A Misdemeanor, Resisting Law Enforcement CL A Misdemeanor, Disorderly Conduct CL-b Misdemeanor, and Public Intoxication CL B Misdemeanor.
