Bilby Leads Virtues Intercollegiate After Day One

Live scoring

NASHPORT, Ohio – Marshall junior Ryan Bilby sits atop the leaderboard at 10-under par and will take a two-shot lead into Tuesday's final round after an impressive Day One of The Virtues Intercollegiate in Nashport, Ohio on Monday.

As a team, Marshall sits alone in second place at 14-under in the 17-team tournament.

"I'm really happy with the way we played today," Marshall Men's Golf Coach Matt Grobe said. "Ryan Bilby played great all day and finds himself at the top of the leaderboard."

Bilby's day got off to a strong start as he eagled the par-5 No. 7 – his first hole of the day. That set in motion one of the more impressive recent rounds from a Marshall men's golfer as he finished with an 8-under 64 to pace the field in Round 1.

Bilby's first round included seven birdies, one eagle and one bogey as he moved to the top of the leaderboard.

The second round proved more difficult as he opened with a bogey, but immediately bounced back with the first of four birdies in his second round. His final birdie came on No. 6 – his last hole of the day – to place him at 10-under heading into the final day.

It was part of a successful overall day for the Herd, who trails only Michigan entering the final round of play.

In addition to Bilby's strong showing, Tyler Jones enters the final day tied for 12th at 3-under for the Herd after rounds of 70 and 71 while Joseph Kalaskey is tied for 21st at 2-under after rounds of 72 and 70.

"Tyler played consistent all day and finished at 3-under par while Joseph played really good today and finished both his rounds with a birdie," Grobe said.

In addition to Bilby's 11 birdies through two rounds, Kalaskey had 10 birdies on the day while Jones had nine, which means scoring is there if players can eliminate the bogeys and stay solid. Such an effort will be needed to make a run at Michigan, who shot 24-under as a team on Day One.

City of TucsonDepartment of Transportation and Mobility

TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN) — The City of Tucson's Department of Transportation and Mobility is holding an open house Thursday, Sept. 14 to hear community input on its Bilby Road Complete Streets Project.

Part of the voter-approved Proposition 411 Safe Streets program, the Bilby Road Project aims to improve pedestrian and bike safety, as well as other safety and roadway improvements, along Bilby between South 12th Avenue to Country Club Road.

The open house will take place at Sunnyside High School, 1725 E. Bilby Rd., in the cafeteria.

KGUN 9's Adam Klepp will have a full report in our 10 p.M. Newscast.

City Of Tucson Continues To Seek Input On Their Bilby Road Improvement Project

TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN) — On Bilby Road from Country Club Road to 12th Avenue, a city-sponsored study says there have been 60 crashes and two deaths from 2017 to 2021.

Now the city is proposing major changes to the street layout.

The study looks at removing most of the two-way left turn lane, and also adding bike lanes, on-street parking, and speed tables to slow down drivers.

Anywhere from five to eight thousand vehicles drive on Bilby Road a day.

Now, money from the voter-approved 'Prop 411' is bringing a major overhaul.

Tucsonans went to an open house where they could give the city feedback on their plans.

As project manager Patrick Hartley says the input could make a big difference come construction time.

"The designs at this point are 15 percent design or conceptual, so there's a lot of change that can happen at this point," Hartley said.

Attendees put sticky notes on a printout of Bilby Road with their suggestions.

Melissa Soto Gonzalez hopes the area around Sunnyside High School makes it easier to pick her niece up from school.

"I'm usually having to park on the other side then she has to cross the street, she's 16 so it's okay but it's still worrisome," Gonzalez said.

Hartley adds safety for students is at the top of mind for the redesign.

"You see a lot of activity in front of these schools so we want to make sure we are addressing that with the designs, improving it so it is safer for everybody," Hartley said.

Construction is expected to begin fall of 2025.

If you couldn't make the open house, there's still an opportunity to have your voice heard for voice improvement.

The City of Tucson has an interactive map of Bilby Road on the project website.

Rare Frogs And Illegal Drugs - Palisades Hudson Financial Group

Colombian conservationist Ivan Lozano has hit on a brilliantly promising strategy to protect his country’s rare and endangered amphibians. His plan: Flood the market with them. Lozano is not hunting rare frogs in Colombia’s Andean forests. He is raising them himself and selling them at prices designed to undercut poachers and smugglers. If he can raise the frogs cheaply enough, and in large enough numbers, he might manage to drive down the market price to the point that poachers no longer find it worthwhile to harvest and smuggle the creatures onto the black markets. Lozano told The Associated Press that his company also encourages collectors to breed their own frogs. Picture yourself as a poacher. If the government toughens the legal penalties and steps up enforcement, you will shrug your shoulders; legal risks are a basic cost of doing business. Since the demand for your product already exists among foreign collectors and other buyers, tougher enforcement merely reduces supply a

Burn scars, winter storms threaten rare and endangered species in San Gabriel Mountains - The Bakersfield Californian

LOS ANGELES — Up until a few weeks ago, the West Fork of the San Gabriel River was one of the most abundant wildlife habitats in Los Angeles County, a secluded and rugged area defined by its steep peaks, lush canyons and mixture of rare and endangered species. Recently however, a team of federal biologists and forest rangers was aghast when it visited the stream following the Bobcat fire, which has burned more than 115,000 acres in the heart of the San Gabriel Mountains National Monument. Terrain that once resembled a High Sierra granite gorge now looked like ground zero after a nuclear explosion, and the usually clean mountain air was sharp with the stench of smoke. Particularly unsettling were the bare and ashen slopes that were now primed to dissolve under pounding winter storms. A heavy mudslide, experts said, could reverse decades of conservation efforts by inundating the last outposts for such federally protected species as the Santa Ana sucker fish and Southern California m
