The third baseman was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame on Sunday, six months after the Baseball Writers Association of America voted to put him there. It was Rolen&#8217;s sixth year on the ballot, and he made it with 76.3% of the vote.  Rolen was inducted alongside first baseman Fred McGriff, who was unanimously selected by the Contemporary Era Committee in December. Both Rolen and McGriff gave their acceptance speeches Sunday afternoon in Cooperstown, with McGriff taking the stage first. Rolen stepped up to the podium following a highlight reel and video introduction from Albert Pujols, who was teammates with Rolen on the\u00a0St. Louis Cardinals from 2002 to 2007.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MLB commissioner Rob Manfred then read aloud Rolen&#8217;s newly minted plaque, which features him in a Cardinals hat. The plaque read as follows:  Scott Bruce Rolen- Philadelphia, N.L. 1996-2002; St. Louis, N.L. 2002-07;&nbsp;Toronto, A.L. 2008-09;&nbsp;Cincinnati, N.L. 2009-12                     Paired elite glovework with formidable bat to become a dominant two-way threat at third base, never appearing at another position in his big-league career. Followed unanimous 1997 N.L. Rookie of the Year season in Philadelphia with first of his eight Gold Glove awards in 1998. Blasted three home runs in N.L.C.S to help Cardinals win the 2004 pennant and two years later led St. Louis to the World Series title, batting .421 in the five-game set. Seven-time All-Star and intelligent baserunner retired as one of only three third basemen with 300 home runs, 500 doubles and 100 stolen bases. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When he began his speech, Rolen thanked each of the teams he played for, as well as the voters, his family, friends, teammates, coaches, support staff and more. He detailed how his parents coming to his major league debut on Aug. 1, 1996, was one of the best moments of his career, while striking out to end a playoff game against the San Francisco Giants on Oct. 11, 2012, was one of the worst.  Rolen shared emotional stories about his parents and kids, from getting high school basketball advice from his father to creating signals for his family in the stands. Across 17 seasons in the majors, Rolen racked up 2,077 hits, 316 home runs, 517 doubles and 118 stolen bases with a .281 batting average and .855 OPS. Rolen made six All-Star teams and won NL Rookie of the Year in 1997, in addition to eight Gold Gloves, a silver slugger and the 2006 World Series. Rolen is the director of player development for Indiana University Baseball. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Indy Eleven Women&#8217;s Soccer Team wins the USL W League Championship <\/strong>                                                                                              <br>Alia Martin scored in the 99th minute to earn a 2-1 victory for Indy Eleven and secure the 2023 USL W League Championship. For her efforts, Martin was named the USL W League Final MVP.  The game was played in front of record-setting fans as the USL W League Final drew a crowd of 5,419 to set the record for the most attended women\u2019s soccer match in Indiana History. Martin\u2019s match-winning goal, which was her second in consecutive games after scoring the late go-ahead goal in the 3-2 National Semifinal win over San Francisco, was her second of the season. The play started with Katie Soderstrom, who secured the corner kick for Indy. Grace Bahr\u2019s service found Annika Creel who redirected the ball back into the center of the 18. Martin made the most of her second chance and connected on a bicycle over the top of the out-stretched North Carolina Courage keeper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After a scoreless first half, it was Indy Eleven that broke the stalemate starting with Addie Chester on the right flank. Chester played a short ball in to Maddy Williams who laid it off for a one-two ball to Greta Kraszula. Kraszula\u2019s ball back into the box found Williams who played the ball across the goal and into the lower right corner. It was her ninth goal of the season, which ties the team high alongside Sam Dewey. NC Courage evened the score in the 75th minute when Mia Oliaro found Lauren Martinho off a cross. The Eleven finish the 2023 season 12-1-1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mackenize Holmes and Indiana Women&#8217;s Basketball are headed to Maine on November 30th to play the Maine Black Bears <\/strong>                  <br>Mackenzie Holmes has made the long trek home many times since joining IU women\u2019s basketball in 2019.  The entire program will join her on that journey in November.  IU will make the 1,100-mile trip to face Maine in late November.\u00a0 Holmes grew up in the town of Gorham, Maine, with a population roughly the size of the number of seats in Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall.  \u201cI am so excited to announce that I will be returning to my home state with Indiana to face The University of Maine at the Cross Insurance Arena in Portland on November 30,\u201d Holmes said in a video released by IU on Friday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gorham is a town just outside of Portland.&nbsp; Holmes led Gorham H.S. to two state titles, and as a senior, she was named the 2019 Maine Gatorade Player of the Year after averaging 30.1 points, 16.7 rebounds, 3.9 blocks and 2.9 steals per game on 63.1 percent shooting from the floor. \u201cI can\u2019t wait to play in front of my friends and family, and I hope to see you guys there,\u201d she added. Holmes will have plenty of supporters in the crowd.&nbsp; For her family it will be the easiest IU game to attend.  But Mackenzie wasn\u2019t the first family member to travel the long path from Maine to IU. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Holmes is the daughter of two basketball coaches and her father, Lenny, took his team in vans to one of Bob Knight\u2019s IU team camps that used to take place during the summer.&nbsp; When IU started recruiting Mackenzie, he told her of that trip, and the rich history of Indiana basketball.  Lenny and Holmes\u2019 mother Denise have traveled the Maine Bloomington path many times since their daughter joined the IU program.  Her older brother Cameron was part of the IU program as a practice player for Mackenzie\u2019s first three years, transferring there from Bryant to support his sister.&nbsp; So, he\u2019s very familiar with the long journey as well.&nbsp; He is now a graduate manager at Illinois State. But on November 30th, the Holmes family won\u2019t have to travel.&nbsp; Mackenzie is coming home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Indiana University Swimmer Ahmed<\/strong> <strong>Hafnaoui\u00a0sets\u00a0All-Time Fifth-Fastest 400 Free, earns Silver at the World Championships <\/strong>                <br>On the first day of pool swimming at the 2023 World Aquatics Championships in Fukuoka Japan Sunday, second-year swimmer Ahmed Hafnaoui made history in the 400-meter freestyle final for Tunisia with an African record 3:40.70 which is the fifth-fastest 400 free all-time.
