Austin Peay State University Men’s Golf comes in third at Bobby Nichols Intercollegiate

APSU Sports Information APSU Men’s Golf

Sevierville, TN – It was an historic day for Austin Peay State University men’s golf, which kept up a series of fantastic finishes at the sixth annual Bobby Nichols Intercollegiate at Sevierville Golf Club’s River Course.

The Govs finished with a three-under par 861 (290-279-292), securing third place by nine shots over Marshall. Eastern Kentucky won the event with an 850, followed by Carson-Newman (851) and the Govs, with UT Martin pushing up to fifth on the final day.

It’s Austin Peay’s third straight top-three finish, the longest streak of top-three finishes for the program since nine consecutive top-three finishes spanning most of the 2012-13 campaign.

Continuing his ascension up the leaderboard on the final day was sophomore Alex Vegh, who went from tied for 26th after the first round to a tie for fifth thanks to a final-round 70, which left him at five-under par 211 (74-67-70) for the tournament. He led the Govs in both par-3 (2.83/hole, tied with Austin Lancaster) and par-4 (3.97/hole) scoring, picking up his third consecutive top-10 finish in the process—the first Gov since Marco Iten in 2014 with three straight top-10 showings.

Lancaster did more than his part, picking up his second consecutive top-10 with a seventh-place 214 (71-68-75); the Hendersonville, TN native shot seven-under par (4.42/hole) on par-5 attempts for the week, leading the Govs and finishing third in the tournament with 14 birdies.

Adding in a third straight top-10 of his own was sophomore Michael Busse, who tied for 10th at 215 (70-72-73); Busse spent the week getting up and down, canning 39 pars—tied for fourth-most over the 54-hole event.

Busse and Vegh are the first set of Governor teammates with three straight top-10 finishes since Iten and Anthony Bradley in 2012-13 (Kenny Perry Invitational, F&M Bank APSU Intercollegiate and Harmony Golf Preserve Intercollegiate).

With the trio of sophomores in head coach Robbie Wilson‘s lineup playing as well as they have the last few weeks, freshmen Chase Korte and Jay Fox have flown under the radar, but the duo was solid in their own right. Korte’s final-round 74 left him tied for 31st (75-72-74—221), while Fox continued to build off his round two momentum, firing a final-round 77 (85-76-77—238).

The Govs will take a 13-day hiatus before returning to action in Jonesboro, Arkansas, site of the Red Wolves Intercollegiate; the two-day event will be held at Ridge Pointe Country Club.

Tennessee Volunteers – UT Vols

Knoxville, TN – With a chance to at least claim a share of the SEC Championship, 16th-ranked Tennessee wraps up the regular season against Georgia in Thompson-Boling Arena on Saturday. The game tips at 5:00pm CT and will be televised live on SEC Network and streamed online via WatchESPN.

The Volunteers (22-7, 12-5 SEC) can claim a share of the regular-season championship with a win, but if Auburn loses to South Carolina and UT wins, Tennessee would pass the Tigers for the top spot in the SEC and would be the outright champion after being picked to finish 13th in the preseason. The Vols sealed their top-2 finish on Tuesday with a dominating win at Mississippi State behind 24 points from Admiral Schofield. The junior forward is averaging 21.7 ppg and 7.3 rpg during UT’s three-game winning streak.

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers

Nashville, TN – The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Nashville District announced today that it is continuing its flood control operation by using flood control storage in Lake Barkley to help mitigate the ongoing flood event on the Ohio River. This may cause minor high water impacts to communities along the Cumberland River in Lyon and Trigg Counties in Kentucky, and Stewart and Montgomery Counties in Tennessee.

Releases from Barkley Dam on the Cumberland River in Kuttawa, KY, are being reduced today as the Ohio River flood crest passes downstream. This reduction in discharge contributes to lowering the crest on the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers, thereby reducing flood risk at cities such as Paducah, KY, Cairo, IL, Memphis, TN, Vicksburg MS, and New Orleans, LA.

What to do During Severe Weather Situations

Montgomery County Government Tennessee

Montgomery County, TN – Ready or not, the severe weather season is upon us. It began with unseasonably warm temperatures last week followed by strong winds and tornados that impacted more than 150 homes and hundreds of people in our community. Planning for severe weather can help tremendously.

It is strongly recommended that rural and municipal residents use a NOAA weather alert radio which can be purchased for less than $50.00 at several local stores or online. There are also free and low-cost severe weather apps including the NOAA app and apps from News Channels 2, 4 and 5.

Pasadena, CA – Much like detectives who study fingerprints to identify the culprit, scientists used NASA’s Hubble and Spitzer space telescopes to find the “fingerprints” of water in the atmosphere of a hot, bloated, Saturn-mass exoplanet some 700 light-years away. And, they found a lot of water. In fact, the planet, known as WASP-39b, has three times as much water as Saturn does.

Though no planet like this resides in our solar system, WASP-39b can provide new insights into how and where planets form around a star, say researchers. This exoplanet is so unique, it underscores the fact that the more astronomers learn about the complexity of other worlds, the more there is to learn about their origins. This latest observation is a significant step toward characterizing these worlds.

Using Hubble and Spitzer space telescopes, scientists studied the “hot Saturn” called WASP-39b – a hot, bloated, Saturn-mass exoplanet located about 700 light-years from Earth. By dissecting starlight filtering through the planet’s atmosphere into its component colors, the team found clear evidence for a large amount of water vapor. (NASA, ESA, G. Bacon and A.

Clarksville, TN – I recently posed the question on my Facebook page about how my fellow riders handle tailgaters. As expected, the responses ran the gamut of opinions.

I can’t say that I have had many instances of tailgaters running up on me, but occasionally, I’ll encounter someone who appears out of nowhere and it scares the living HELL out of me. Not being as experienced as some of you, I still get a little “jittery” when someone’s too close to me.

In my opinion, there’s not a lot of options to dealing with someone who wants to get a real close look at your license plate. If you’re on the interstate, and you’re in the passing lane, you can only wait until you can move to the cruising lane and let the idiot get past you.
