Iyla Kress is no longer a secret this season for Heritage Hills girls basketball

LINCOLN CITY — Heritage Hills coach Kim Brown has the talking points memorized. Her audience is typically elementary school kids at the Patriots' annual summer camp. Brown goes over what it takes to become a successful player at the varsity level: "If you can handle the ball, dribble the ball and pass the ball then you're going to play." What if you have an individual who not only possesses those skills but excels at them? A point guard with attributes few have around Southern Indiana. One whose basketball potential is purely different. That's the luxurious position in which Heritage Hills girls basketball finds itself. More: Who is No. 1 in the Courier & Press girls basketball preseason power rankings? It has Iyla Kress in the lineup. "You don’t see 6-foot guards in Southern Indiana very often who can handle the way she handles," Brown said. The sophomore point guard is no longer a secret in the basketball world around Evansville. Not after receiving a handful of Division I offers this summer. Not after growing another two or three inches. Kress has officially become the player opposing coaches are jealous isn't in their program. Heritage Hills knew this for some time.

Too many public school referendums lost on Election Day | Opinion

Watching the results come in on Election Day, I was grateful to see over two-thirds of Indiana's school referendums pass with ample community support, including in Indianapolis. But I was also devastated that many others across the state failed . It’s looking like 12 school districts will enter a maelstrom of fiscal uncertainty. I know what’s next: cuts, consolidations and closures. Teachers will lose their jobs. Students will lose access to programs, transportation and maybe school itself. And shrinking communities will lose an anchor that moored them from the storm. Who is responsible? People will argue that districts are inefficient, though there’s very little evidence of that where voters said no. The reality is that state and federal dollars haven’t kept pace with the rising costs of education, including diesel for buses and food for school meals. Indiana has dropped from 15th to 38th in the nation in per-pupil funding. Cuts to Medicaid have also hammered schools, as it provides the core revenue stream for school nurses, psychologists, occupational and physical therapists, special education technology and mental health services. If schools are going to continue offering those services, they have to find a way to pay. So why doesn’t the
