Info You Should Know

* A Moment in Black History: Dr. Daniel Hale Williams III

Daniel Hale Williams III was born on January 18, 1856, in Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania, to Sarah Price Williams and Daniel Hale Williams II. The couple had several children, with the elder Daniel H. Williams inheriting a barber business. He also worked with the Equal Rights League, a black civil rights organization active during the Reconstruction era.

After the elder Williams died, a 10-year-old Daniel was sent to live in Baltimore, Maryland, with family friends. He became a shoemaker’s apprentice but disliked the work and decided to return to his family, who had moved to Illinois. Like his father, he took up barbering, but ultimately decided he wanted to pursue his education. He worked as an apprentice with Dr. Henry Palmer, a highly accomplished surgeon, and then completed further training at Chicago Medical College.

Williams set up his own practice in Chicago’s South Side and taught anatomy at his alma mater, also becoming the first African-American physician to work for the city’s street railway system. Williams - who was called Dr. Dan by patients - adopted sterilization procedures for his office informed by the recent findings on germ transmission and prevention from Louis Pasteur and Joseph Lister.

Due to the discrimination of the day, African-American citizens were still barred from being admitted to hospitals and black doctors were refused staff positions. Firmly believing this needed to change, in May 1891, Williams opened Provident Hospital and Training School for Nurses, the nation’s first hospital with a nursing and intern program that had a racially integrated staff. The facility, where Williams worked as a surgeon, was publicly championed by famed abolitionist and writer Frederick Douglass.

In 1893, Williams continued to make history when he operated on James Cornish, a man with a severe stab wound to his chest who was brought to Provident. Without the benefits of a blood transfusion or modern surgical procedures, Williams successfully sutured Cornish’s pericardium, the membranous sac enclosing the heart, thus becoming one of the first people to perform open-heart surgery. Cornish lived for many years after the operation.

In 1894, Williams moved to Washington, D.C., where he was appointed the chief surgeon of the Freedmen’s Hospital, which provided care for formerly enslaved African Americans. The facility had fallen into neglect and had a high mortality rate. Williams worked diligently on revitalization, improving surgical procedures, increasing specialization, launching ambulance services and continuing to provide opportunities for black medical professionals, among other feats. In 1895, he co-founded the National Medical Association, a professional organization for black medical practitioners, as an alternative to the American Medical Association, which didn’t allow African-American membership.

Williams left Freedmen’s Hospital in 1898. He married Alice Johnson, and the newlyweds moved to Chicago, where Williams returned to his work at Provident. Soon after the turn of the century, he worked at Cook County Hospital and later at St. Luke’s, a large medical institution with ample resources.

Beginning in 1899, Williams also made annual trips to Nashville, Tennessee, where he was a voluntary visiting clinical professor at Meharry Medical College for more than two decades. He became a charter member of the American College of Surgeons in 1913.

Today, Williams's work as a pioneering physician and advocate for an African-American presence in medicine continues to be honored by institutions worldwide.

* Feehan leads Aces in loss to UNI

Three University of Evansville men’s basketball players recorded double figures, but UNI freshman A.J. Green scored a game-high 21 points to give the Panthers a 73-58 win over the Purple Aces on Sunday in the Ford Center.

Shea Feehan scored a team-high 14 points while knocking down three triples.  K.J. Riley recorded 12 points and a team-best six boards for UE (10-17, 4-10 MVC) while Shamar Givance had a solid effort with 10 points.  Green was the top scorer for UNI (12-15, 7-7 MVC) with his 21 points. He was one of four Panthers to reach double figures. Trae Berhow led everyone with 11 rebounds.

“At some point, we have to let teams stop pushing us around and get to the rim easily,” UE head coach Walter McCarty said. “We are not playing with any passion or urgency right now. Until we figure it out, this will continue to happen. We are not doing anything right now that connects us as a team.”

Givance got the Aces on the board with a triple on the first possession of the game. The Panthers took their first lead of the day at 6-5. Evansville was able to regain the lead and push it out to 12-8 on a triples by Shea Feehan. 

The Panthers responded with a pair of runs that saw them take a double digit lead. UNI notched the next nine points to go up 17-12. A.J. Green had 10 of the Panthers’ first 12 points to spearhead the run. After Feehan knocked down three free throws to make it a 2-point game, UNI came right back with a 10-0 stretch that pushed its lead to 27-15 with seven minutes remaining in the first half.

UNI matched its highest lead, taking a 36-22 advantage into the break. Green led UNI with 13 points while Riley paced Evansville with eight.

Riley moved into double figures when he hit the first shot of the second half. Northern Iowa responded with a 5-0 stretch that pushed their lead to a game-high 41-24.  Eight minutes into the final period, the Panther lead stood at 49-33. Noah Frederking’s triple started a 7-0 run that made it a 49-40 game. 

Once again, UNI had the answer as they extended their lead back to 16 points (58-42) with just under seven minutes left and held strong to take the 73-58 win.

“We have to do a better job of knowing the scouting reports and other team’s tendencies,” Feehan said after the game. “I feel like what we are doing wrong are things we can control.”

Freshman Jawaun Newton made his first start of the season on Sunday. He saw 17 minutes of action. Chatkevicius scored seven points while going 3-of-5 from the field. As a team, the Aces shot 41.3% while the Panthers checked in at 46.4%. UNI finished with a 37-25 rebounding edge.

 
* UE baseball: 7-2 victory over Mercer Sunday

After dropping the first two games of the series in heartbreaking one run fashion, the University of Evansville baseball team took no chances in the series finale, as strong pitching combined with a trio of home runs, leading to a 7-2 victory over Mercer Sunday afternoon in Macon, Georgia.

It began on the hill, where senior left-hander Alex Weigand got the start for the Aces, and after giving up a first inning home run, came back to pitch three shutout innings. For the day, the southpaw went five innings, allowing two runs on seven hits, while striking out four.

Trailing 1-0 in the fifth inning, freshman second baseman Danny Borgstrom snapped a no-hitter and a shutout, ripping a double to right-center, driving in senior outfielder Nate Reeder for the game-tying run. Later in the inning, Borgstrom would make it to third base on a single by junior catcher Ben Komonsky, then score on a fielder's choice junior second baseman Craig Shepherd, giving Evansville the lead.

The Bears would come back to knot the game back up in the bottom of the inning, but in the top of the sixth freshman designated hitter A.J. Fritz continued the hot start to his collegiate career with a solo homer to left, putting the Aces back out in front, 3-2.

Weigand would give way to Austin Allinger in the sixth, and the senior righty would deliver, tossing 2 2/3 innings of one-hit shutout work, while striking out three.

In the seventh frame, senior outfielder Nate Reeder, a day removed from blasting a pair home runs, delivered a clutch two-out two-run blast, giving Evansville some much-needed breathing room, leading 5-2.

Kenton Crews would cap the Aces' power burst with a two-run homer in the final frame, giving UE a five run pad they would not relinquish. Junior right-hander Jake McMahill, who took over in the eighth, would close out the game.

"Great team win today," said University of Evansville baseball head coach Wes Carroll. It started on the mound with an outstanding performance from Alex Weigand. Our defense played great behind Weigand, Allinger and McMahill. Then our offense Stepped up late to pull away with a couple of home runs."

Up next for the Aces is a trip to Nashville to take on the top ranked team in the nation, Vanderbilt. 

 
* Lockhart tosses no-hitter as Aces sweep 4-game series

Highlighting another exciting day at the ballpark was a no-hitter by University of Evansville senior Emily Lockhart as the Purple Aces softball team clinched a 4-game series sweep over Southern.

Evansville earned a 4-2 win in the opening contest before wrapping up with an 8-0 triumph in five innings in the second game.

“Emily was dominant in the circle this weekend, I am so happy for her as she put together two of the best games she has pitched. She has been working really hard all offseason,” Aces head coach Mat Mundell said. “We have a lot to be excited about from this weekend with how we played. We are still looking for the right mix, but it has been great to see some players really step up.”

Allison Daggett got the scoring started in the opening game with a sacrifice fly in the top of the first. She scored Katie McLean, who walked to lead off the game before stealing second.

Following a run in the third, the Aces went back to work in the fourth with McKenzie Johnson hitting a leadoff single.  Pinch runner Toni Galas stole second and scored on a Mackenzie McFeron base knock. McFeron would cross the plate herself on a sac fly from Eryn Gould. Making the start was Izzy Vetter, who got the job done in the circle, pitching the complete game while allowing two runs on nine hits with UE taking the 4-2 win. Mea Adams led UE with two hits in the game.

In game two, the offense got off to another quick start when a Mea Adams hit scored Gould to give the Aces a 1-0 lead in the first. Katie McLean notched an RBI hit before a Gould 3-run home run saw Evansville push its lead to 5-0 in the second frame.

Bailee Bostic posted an RBI single to extend the lead in the third inning before Johnson put the icing on the cake a few innings later when her 2-RBI hit pushed the lead to 8-0. Lockhart continued to keep the Jaguars hitless as UE picked up the 8-0 victory in five innings. She struck out seven batters.

Another tournament is upcoming for the Aces when they travel to Chattanooga, Tenn., for next weekend’s Frost Classic.  Evansville will face Creighton, Eastern Kentucky, Western Kentucky, Ohio University, and Chattanooga.
