Good morning, this is Indianapolis Local Pulse for March 4, 2025.
We're starting off with some exciting news from the world of high school sports. The South Knox Spartans girls' basketball team clinched the Class 2A state championship with a decisive 55-33 victory over Rensselaer Central at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. The Spartans, led by sisters Kendal and Bren Hill, dominated the game with their strong defensive performance and rebounding. This marks the first state title for South Knox in girls' basketball, adding to Knox County's rich basketball history.
In weather news, we're in for a blustery day. The next 24 hours will be very windy, so secure any loose outdoor items and exercise caution when driving, especially on bridges and overpasses. Despite the wind, temperatures will remain mild for early March.
On the business front, local establishments on the east side are voicing their frustrations about the persistent pothole problem. Several shop owners along Washington Street have reported damage to their customers' vehicles, which is affecting foot traffic. The Department of Public Works has promised to address the issue in the coming weeks.
In a nod to Indiana's basketball legacy, we're remembering Gene Hackman's iconic role in "Hoosiers." The film, based on the real-life story of the Milan High School team, continues to inspire basketball enthusiasts across the state. Local fans are organizing a screening at the Historic Artcraft Theatre in Franklin this weekend to celebrate the enduring impact of the movie on Indiana's basketball culture.
We've got a health alert for parents. With a recent spike in measles cases, a Riley Children's Health doctor is emphasizing the importance of the measles vaccine and booster shots. They're urging parents to check their children's vaccination records and consult with their pediatricians if they have any concerns.
In crime news, local business owners are on high alert after a brazen burglary was caught on camera. The incident, which occurred in the Fountain Square neighborhood, resulted in thousands of dollars in losses. Police are asking residents to report any suspicious activity and are increasing patrols in the area.
Looking ahead to community events, the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra is gearing up for its annual Adventure Concert for third and fourth-graders from surrounding counties. This educational program aims to introduce young students to classical music in an engaging and interactive way.
On a positive note, we're proud to report that several local athletes from universities in the Great Lakes Valley Conference have received weekly honors for their outstanding performances in various sports, including baseball, softball, and basketball.
Lastly, in job market news, Governor Mike Braun has signed two executive orders aimed at addressing unemployment benefits. While details are still emerging, these orders are expected to impact job seekers and employers across the state.
This has been Indianapolis Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
