Newton Downs Lady Aces In LIC Showdown

The Lady Aces hosted big conference competition Newton Tuesday night. 

The Lady Aces wanted this match, but seemed to play a bit tight in front of the hometown crowd. They had some long volleys and aggressive play, but we didn’t see their best last night. Unfortunately that’s what was needed to beat Newton.  The first set was close, but the Eagles pulled away in the second.

The JV team went 3 sets with Newton. Dropping the first set 20-25, winning the second 26-24. The third set the girls had a little slump and fell behind losing it 8-15.

The team played with less errors and more intensity tonight. Newton had a solid JV squad, and gave the girls a good match.

Memorial Pitch and Catch Saturday, Oct. 26 Honors 1954 World Series Game Four Winner Don Liddle

A game of pitch and catch to celebrate the major league baseball career and 70th anniversary of Mt. Carmel, IL native Don Liddle will be held Saturday, October 26, 11 a.m., This event will be held at Don Liddle Ball Park on W. 4th St. in Mt. Carmel, IL.

Liddle while pitching for the New York Giants, won game four of the 1954 World Series, He was also on the mound pitching to Cleveland Indians slugger Vic Wertz when Willie Mays made “The Catch” in deep center field of the New York's Polo Grounds. Mays' “Catch” killed an Indians rally and the Giants would win Game One 5-2. The Giants would sweep the Indians in four straight with southpaw curve baller Don Liddle winning 4.

Liddle's six year journey in the Milwaukee Braves organization began at Bosse Field in Evansville, IN with the Evansville Braves of the III League.

Event organizer Wes Schilt said “We have to remember people like Don Liddle, because he represents small dreams made big. If we don't remember, it slowly fades away.”

Schilt said it is also bigger than Liddle's dream. It is bigger than a Mt. Carmel, IL thing, “For one day, we all have the opportunity to turn a baseball field named in his honor into our own 'Field of Dreams.' A place to have a catch. A place for fathers and mothers, sons and daughters. A place to experience joy and remember.

For more information, contact Wes Schilt at (618)-302-7701.

Lady Aces Win Nailbiter At Casey

The Mt. Carmel Lady Aces Volleyball team traveled to Casey Westfield Thursday night for more conference play.
