Trailblazers drop MWAC doubleheader to Illinois Central

0

VINCENNES, Ind. – The Vincennes University baseball team returned to Jerry Blemker Field Saturday afternoon to play the first two games of their four-game Mid-West Athletic Conference series with Illinois Central College.

The Blazers got off to a rocky start and fell in game one 7-3 before falling in game two to the Cougars 9-4.

The weekend conference series did not get off to a great start for the Blazers as Illinois Central opened game one of the day by scoring three runs in the first inning.

VU would get on the board in the second inning after sophomore Blake Heyerly (Monroe, Ind.) got on with a double and came around to score on an RBI single by sophomore Trevor Newman (Fort Wayne, Ind.).

The Cougars immediately got this run back in the third and added another run in the fourth to take a 5-1 lead.

Vincennes would look to battle back in the bottom half of the fourth after freshman Corbin Napier (Indianapolis, Ind.) reached on an error and was driven in on an RBI single by Blake Heyerly, his second hit of the day.

VU would continue to cut into the ICC lead in the fifth with a single by freshman Bradyn Douglas (Frankton, Ind.) and an RBI single by sophomore Jack Robinson (Mooresville, Ind.) to make it a 5-3 game.

This would be as close as the Blazers would get in game one however as the Cougars plated a run in the sixth and added an insurance run in the ninth to hold off VU and pick up the 7-3 game one victory.

Sophomore Josh McCormick (Indianapolis, Ind.) got the start in game one and was able to settle in after a tough first inning, throwing four innings, allowing five runs on seven hits and striking out five.

Sophomore Max Lines (Indianapolis, Ind.) was the first out of the pen for Vincennes, throwing two innings, allowing one unearned run on three hits and striking out two.

Freshman Yancey Edlin (Pekin, Ind.) came in to throw the final three innings in relief, allowing one run on two hits and striking out four.

“Starting pitching and everything else from that avenue just didn’t get it done in game one,” VU Head Baseball Coach Chris Barney said. “We need to get more out of our starter in that situation in a game where they made all of the plays, turned two or three double plays against us. Balls that we barreled up and hit really hard were caught. Things just didn’t drop for us in game one and they had a couple of small hits that fell for them.”

“Illinois Central did a good job and you’ve got to tip your cap to them,” Barney added. “That was their number one arm and today he threw like a number one arm.”

Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita calls out lawmakers in fight against antisemitism

0

The Office of Attorney General Todd Rokita released the following statement today:

“As I have stated throughout the debate on this antisemitism bill, the law was originally written to protect Jewish students in Indiana K-12 schools and university campuses from ruthless, anti-Semitic attacks that have increased since the horrific slaughter of Israelis on October 7th.

Indiana Senators turned it into a toothless mess that allows anti-Semites to continue to cloak their discriminatory hatred of Jews as simple political disagreements directed at Israel, not Jews.

Then, Indiana Representatives would not correct the Senate’s actions, which equates hateful, anti-Semitic rhetoric, like “From the River to the Sea” to mere political speech. The Governor should veto this compromised bill to show he understands that regular Hoosiers won’t compromise with Jew-hating bigots.”

Randy Niemeyer’s Statement on Biden’s Proposed $7.3 Trillion Budget & $5.5 Trillion in Tax Hikes

March 17, 2024

Cedar Lake– Following President Biden’s unveiling of his massive $7.3 Trillion Budget, including $5.5 Trillion in tax hikes, Randy Niemeyer, Lake County Councilman and Republican Congressional candidate for Indiana’s First District issued the following statement:

“As a small business owner, I’m deeply troubled by President Biden’s proposed budget and tax hikes. With a $7.3 trillion budget and $5.5 trillion in tax increases, the government is reaching deeper into our pockets without considering the consequences for hardworking Americans and entrepreneurs like myself. Biden has learned nothing from the past three years, continuing to burden everyday Americans with runaway spending, causing us to pay higher prices for goods, while taxing you more.

“These policies will directly lead to higher inflation, eroding the buying power of your hard-earned dollars, and further straining the budgets of American families and businesses.

“These policies have been tried over and over again in this country and have never worked. Working and middle-class taxpayers have always paid the freight on tax and spend policies.

“Tax hikes threaten to burden businesses already struggling to recover from the challenges of the past few years. Instead of fueling economic growth, they’ll crush the entrepreneurial spirit that drives our nation forward.

“Rather than penalizing success, we should foster an environment that encourages innovation and job creation. I will advocate for responsible fiscal policies in Congress that prioritize the needs of small businesses, and everyday Americans to ensure our economy can thrive for generations to come,” stated Niemeyer.
Randy Niemeyer, is a member of the Lake County Council, elected in 2022, after having served as President of the Cedar Lake Town Council. Under Randy’s watch, Cedar Lake was able to turn itself around financially, while expanding its police force, conducting major upgrades to roads, utilities, sewers, and parks, while establishing a municipal fire department. He is a lifelong resident of Northwest Indiana, and has lived in Cedar Lake most of his life, having raised two children there with his wife of twenty-one years. He is the fourth generation of his family in trucking, as the owner of Niemeyer Milk Transfer, where he started working at 18 years old, right after graduating from Hanover Central High School. Randy has received endorsements from U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson, Congresswoman Elise Stefanik, Congressman Jim Banks, Congresswoman Erin Houchin, and Congressman Rudy Yakym.
