2 News Indianapolis selected for 2017 Navy Week By RICK BURKE Navy Office of Community Outreach, Indianapolis America s Navy is coming home to Indianapolis in 2017, one of 15 cities selected to host a Navy Week, one of the Navy s signature outreach programs. Indianapolis Navy Week is scheduled for August 7-13, 2017, coincident with the Indiana State Fair, and is designed to give area residents an opportunity to learn about the Navy, its people and its importance to national security and prosperity. The Navy plans to include the following elements in the week-long celebration: USS Constitution Sailors Navy Divers and Navy Explosive Ordnance Disposal teams Navy Band musical performances Senior Navy Leadership Namesake Sailors with ties to the local area or region Navy Aircraft and aviators Navy simulator(s) and other interactive displays Visits to area schools Community service projects and events with local organizations Visits with local veterans Since 2005, the Navy Week program has served as the Navy s signature outreach effort into areas of the country which do not have a significant Navy presence, with 195 Navy Weeks being held in 71 different U.S. cities. Navy Weeks are designed to help Americans understand that their Navy protects and defends America on the world s oceans, that their Navy is deployed around the world around the clock, and is ready to defend America at all times, said Cmdr. John Gay, Director of the Navy Office of Community Outreach, which plans and executes the Navy Week program. Because the Navy is concentrated primarily on both coasts, we re challenged to communicate our mission away from fleet concentration areas. That s where the Navy Week program comes in. Navy Weeks focus a variety of outreach assets, equipment and personnel on a single city for a week-long series of engagements with key influencers and organizations representing all sectors of the market. "During a Navy Week, 75-100 outreach events are coordinated with corporate, civic, government, education, media, veterans, community service and diversity organizations in the city," said Lt. Cmdr. Brett Dawson, Navy Office of Community Outreach Event Planning Department. "We bring in as much of the Navy as we can. The Navy Parachute Team, bands, divers, Seabees, USS Constitution, EOD teams, crews of ships and submarines that are named after a city or state or have a tie to the area, hometown Sailors, interactive displays and equipment, and Navy recruiting assets all have participated in the Navy Week program."

4 Sports Noblesville swept by Eagles By RICHIE HALL Reporter Sports Editor Friday's Hoosier Crossroads Conference basketball doubleheader at Noblesville turned into a sweep for visiting Zionsville. First up was the girls game, where the Class 4A No. 4 Eagles beat the Millers 75-62. The boys game was next, and Zionsville took control in the second half to defeat Noblesville 58-39. The Miller girls played tough with the Eagles in the first half, with Emily Kiser and Maddie Knight making 3-pointers. Kiser wound up with 10 points in the first quarter, helping Noblesville to a 17-14 lead late in the period. But Zionsville finished the quarter on a 6-0 run to lead 20-17, and pushed that advantage to 31-22 early in the second period. The Millers scored six unanswered points to cut the lead to 31-28, with Brooke Herron making a pair of foul shots, and Kailyn Mertens scoring a basket. "Rebounding was the difference in the game," said Noblesville coach Donna Buckley. "They're so long and athletic and they dominated the boards, and we gave them too many second chance opportunities." A three-point play by Kiser put Noblesville within 33-31 with 2:32 remaining in the half, but Zionsville would eventually jump ahead 40-33 by halftime. The Eagles pushed their lead to 45-33 early in the third period, and would remain ahead by around that margin for the second half. Kiser scored 21 points, with Mallory Johnson and Knight both adding 12. Kiser had five rebounds and two blocked shots, with Brooke Herron handing out five assists. BOYS GAME The Miller boys got out to a great start against Zionsville, leading 13-6 midway through the first quarter. Max Flinchum hit two 3-pointers, and Corby Mertens scored five points. The Eagles worked their way back to within 13-11 by the end of the period, but Noblesville got a couple steals that led to baskets, which kept them ahead 17-13 early in the second. Grant Gremel scored off a takeaway by McGwire Plumer, and Rico Duncan took his own steal to the basket. Zionsville jumped ahead 21-19 late in the quarter before Flinchum converted a rare four-point play - he was fouled while making a 3-pointer, then made the subsequent free throw. That gave the Millers a 23-21 lead that would stand going into halftime. "First half, we accomplished some of our objectives offensively," said Millers coach Brian McCauley. Those objectives were getting the ball where Noblesville wanted it, and making shots - the Millers were 9-of-17 from the field in the first half. The Eagles opened the second half by scoring nine unanswered points to lead 30-23. Zionsville allowed Noblesville just six points in the third quarter, and after Ryan Barnes ended their first run with a pair of foul shots, the Eagles scored six more points before Mertens and Duncan closed the period with baskets. Duncan opened the fourth quarter with a '3,' and that put the Millers within 36-32. But Zionsville closed the game on a 22-7 run, including an 11-of-12 effort from the free throw line. Meanwhile, the Eagles only allowed Noblesville four trips to the line in the entire game; the Millers were 3-of-4. "We tried to do it individually, and it really exposed us," said McCauley. "Quick shots, no offensive rebounding, and that led to easy baskets for Zionsville. They really out-executed us and out-teamed us in the second half." Flinchum led the Millers with 10 points, including three 3-pointers. Mertens pulled three rebounds, while Plumer handed out four assists. Noblesville's boys (5-7) are back in action tonight, traveling to Fort Wayne Northrop for a 7:30 p.m. game. The Miller girls (11-8) are off until Thursday, when they head to Heritage Christian to take on the defending Class 3A state champion.

Golden Eagles beat Broad Ripple for fourth straight win Guerin Catholic's boys basketball team won their fourth straight game, defeating Broad Ripple 48-43. The Rockets traveled to Hamilton County Friday night rated No. 2 in this Sills week's Associated Press 2A poll. The largest home crowd of the season to date watched Guerin Catholic (9-5, 2-2 CCC) race to a 10-1 lead. Broad Ripple trailed the entire first half. However they cut the deficit by halftime to six points, trailing GC 34-28. The Rockets continued chipping away, and outscored Guerin Catholic 13-8 in the third quarter.. They then took a 34-33 on a Sam Colbert 3-point shot to open the final period. The lead changed hands six times in those final eight minutes. But Coach Pete Smith's squad regained the lead 42-41 on a back door lay-in by Zach Munson. Despite a game-high 20 points by Colbert, Broad Ripple (8-2) could not tie the game in the final 1:40, and Smith's team won for its seventh time in their last eight contests. The 43 points were a season-low for the Indianapolis crew. "There were a lot of ups and downs in this game, but I'm really proud of our defense communication and how well our guys switched defenses in general," said Smith. Sophomore Kian Sills was most effective in his team's defensive game plan, recording a season-high four steals. "Kian had a good week of practice after laboring with an ankle injury suffered during our Vincennes trip that set him back some since at the end of December," Smith elaborated. "Kian had good shot selection offensively, and made two real nice assists down the stretch." Sills finished with seven points. Matthew Godfrey led the Golden Eagles in scoring with 17 points, including a strong 5-7 shooting performance from behind the 3-point line. Munson finished with 11 points and Jack Hanson added 10 points and 8 defensive rebounds. Hanson and his teammates held a 27-26 rebound advantage against the tall, athletic Rocket squad. However Smith made note that his squad's 8-14 shooting on the night at the free throw line, not including two other made free throws nullified in the final stanza due to lane violations, made it a bit tougher to "earn the victory", he said. Tuesday night Guerin Catholic will travel to Marion County's south side and play Circle City Conference leader Roncalli (10-3, 3-0 CCC).

Ritter comeback stops Blazers Josh Watson and Josh Alford led University with 12 points each, while Ethan Sickels and David Howard added eight points each. The game was a back and forth contest with neither team leading by more than four points until University took a 34-28 lead with 2:47 left Sickels in the third period on a driving basket by Howard. After a Cardinal Ritter basket, Zach Hodgin split a pair of free throws for the 35-30 University lead after three quarters. University shot just 4 for 16 from three point range and committed a season high 13 turnovers. Cardinal Ritter had 12 points off offensive rebounds. University has lost four games in a row and falls to 8-5 on the season. Cardinal Ritter improves to 7-3. The Trailblazers are in action again Saturday night, hosting Indianapolis Lutheran at The U Center.
