Mayor Terry Announces Launch of “My Summer Ride” to Expand Youth Access to Opportunity Through Free METS Bus Program  

0

Evansville Mayor Stephanie Terry today announced the launch of My Summer Ride, a new pilot initiative offering free METS bus service for youth across the city this summer. The program will run from June 2 through August 2, 2025, and is open to all youth aged 18 and under, as well as students over 18 who are still enrolled in high school.

As part of the City’s Safe Summer initiative, My Summer Ride was created to reduce transportation barriers that often prevent young people from accessing jobs, summer programs, libraries, parks, and other vital community resources.

“This program is about more than just transportation,” Mayor Stephanie Terry said. “My Summer Ride is about expanding opportunity. It’s about making sure every young person in our city can get to a job, a summer camp, or the library – regardless of whether they have a car or a ride. We’re supporting working families, fostering youth independence, and building the next generation of METS riders.”

To increase accessibility, the city will work with local youth-serving organizations to help distribute METS bus passes. Those passes will be available for pick-up at the CK Newsome Center, METS Station, and all public city pools. Students who may appear older than 18 should be prepared to show school ID or a report card when picking up their bus passes.

Participants in My Summer Ride can use METS fixed-route and METS Mobility services at no cost. The free rides are available for any purpose, not just for school-related activities. Children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult.

By offering this program, the City of Evansville is advancing several of Mayor Terry’s core priorities:

  • Youth Development, by helping young people access enrichment, education, and employment.
  • Public Safety, by ensuring safe, reliable transportation options.
  • Economic Development, by reducing transportation barriers for youth entering the workforce.

“My administration is committed to building a city where every child – no matter their zip code – has access to opportunity,” Mayor Terry added. “My Summer Ride is a step toward that vision.”

Full program details are available by calling METS at 812-435-6166 or asking any bus operator.

EVANSVILLE, Ind. – University of Southern Indiana Men’s Basketball announced the signing of guard Ismail Habib for the 2025-26 season.
 
“We are thrilled to add Ismail to our basketball family,” said USI Head Coach Stan Gouard. “Ismail is a tough, hard-nosed guard. 
 
“While his shooting ability, play making, and defensive intensity will fit great within our system, we are excited about what he brings to the culture of our locker room with his tremendous work ethic, attitude, and character,” concluded Gouard.
 
Habib is transferring to USI after spending the last two seasons at Portland State University. He appeared in 35 games for the Vikings over the last two seasons, averaging 9.0 points, 2.1 rebounds, and 2.3 assists per contest.
 
The 6-1 guard averaged 8.7 points, 1.1 rebounds, and 0.4 assists in seven contests and one start during 2024-25. He scored a two-year high of 29 points versus Evergreen State University.
 
During his first season at Portland State in 2023-24, Habib posted a two-year best 9.0 points, 2.4 rebounds, and 2.8 assists in 28 games, making 25 starts.
 
Prior to playing last year for Appalachian State, Habib started 54 games over two seasons at Hill College (2023-24) and Western Texas College (2022-23). He was named All-Conference for Hill College after averaging 12.8 points and 6.1 rebounds.
 
Before playing at Portland State, Habib started his collegiate career at South Plains College in 2022-23. He averaged 11.5 points, 3.5 assists, and 3.7 rebounds for the Texans as a freshman.
 
Habib played three seasons at Lincoln Park High School (Chicago, Illinois) and one season at Bishop Walsh School (Cumberland, Maryland) before starting his collegiate career. He was third-team All-State in Illinois as a junior, averaging 22.7 points, four rebounds, and five assists per game.
 
The USI Screaming Eagles are a member of the Ohio Valley Conference and will be NCAA Tournament eligible in 2025-26 following the completion of the accelerated transition from Division II. USI has reached the OVC Championship in two of the first three seasons of Division I action.

Walton, Ky. native joins Purple Aces

 

EVANSVILLE, Ind. – Following a high school career that saw him finish as the all-time leading scorer at Walton-Verona High School, Aaron Gutman has signed on with the University of Evansville men’s basketball team.

“We are thrilled to welcome Aaron Gutman and his family to the UE family! As we continue building toward the future of our program, we’re focused on bringing in young, high-potential talent—and Aaron exemplifies exactly that,” UE head men’s basketball coach David Ragland exclaimed. “He is an extremely competitive and athletic player with impressive positional size.”

“Our priority remains clear: adding skilled players who can dribble, pass, and shoot. Aaron checks all those boxes. Even more importantly, he brings a relentless drive to improve and a work ethic that stands out,” Ragland continued. “We are excited for the impact Aaron will have on our program in the years to come.”

Gutman completed his high school career with 2,050 points to go along with 675 rebounds, and 143 3-point makes.  The scoring record at Walton-Verona had stood since 1958.  Following the season, Gutman was tabbed as the Co-KABC Player of the Year in the 8thRegion while earning 8th Region All-Region and 8th Region All-Tournament accolades.

He shined as a senior, averaging a team-high 23.3 points per game over the course of 34 contests.  Overall, Gutman was a 49.8% shooter from the field while adding a total of 67 triples in his final campaign.  He also paced the Bearcats with an average of 6.9 rebounds.   His efforts helped the team finish with a 21-13 record while playing in the 8thRegion semifinals.

Following the season, Gutman was selected to play in the Kentucky-Ohio All-Star game and finished with 13 points, two blocks, a steal, and assist.  He is set to play for the Kentucky All-Star team in the Kentucky-Indiana All-Star games, which will take place on June 6 and 7.

“I chose Evansville because of the culture created by the coaches,” Gutman said.  “The biggest thing for me was being around people who truly appreciate me.”
