Sam Engleman, a junior shortstop from Hawarden, has completed her softball season at Buena Vista University.
The Beavers had a record of 14-21 overall. They lost to Luther College May 4, 9-0 in five innings, in the opening round of the Iowa Intercollegiate Athletics Conference (IAAC) tournament in Cedar Rapids.
Engleman had the team’s lone hit, a fifth inning double. She was 1-for-2 with one walk.
The Norse came out and scored five runs in the first inning, including a three-run home run. They added four more runs in the third inning. BVU pitcher Jenna Falline suffered the loss after being charged with five runs in only one-third inning of work.
On May 6, at 9:50 a.m., the Sioux County Sheriff’s Office made an arrest following a traffic stop at the intersection of Iowa Highway 75 and 470th Street in Maurice.
Arrested was Enrique Montanez, age 19, of Sioux City. Upon further investigation, the deputy determined that Montanez was in possession of illegal drugs and his driver’s license was suspended.
Montanez was arrested for possession of drug paraphernalia and driving with a suspended license.
The first week of May is recognized as “National Correctional Officers Week” to honor the work of correctional officers nationwide.
“We are proud of our 14 full-time and seven part-time corrections officers who work hard 24 hours every day, keeping the Sioux County Jail safe and secure,” said Sioux County Sheriff Dan Altena.
The 70-bed Sioux County Jail in Orange City houses an average of 30 county and federal inmates per day.
