Even with bad loss to ULM, Southern Miss interim coach guarantees conference championship
SUMMARY: The Southern Miss men‘s basketball team lost their first home conference game of the season to Louisiana-Monroe with a score of 68-59, ending a 14-game home winning streak. Southern Miss attempted a comeback from a 21-point deficit, but their efforts fell short when star guard Austin Crowley fouled out with 1:27 remaining. Crowley led the Golden Eagles with 22 points and 10 rebounds, but the team struggled offensively in his absence and couldn’t stop an 8-0 run from the Warhawks. Interim head coach Juan Cardona, filling in for Coach Jay Ladner, took responsibility for the defeat, yet remains confident and has promised a win in the upcoming Sun Belt Tournament. Southern Miss’ next game is at home against Texas State.

SUMMARY: As Election Day approaches, voters are preparing and deciding on proposed tax referendums. In George County, residents can vote on a new sales tax to fund the “Pennies for Parks” program, aimed at enhancing youth sports facilities. This initiative includes a one-cent sales tax on restaurants and a three percent tax on hotels, with plans already in place for new soccer fields. Meanwhile, Ridgeland voters will consider a sales tax increase to expand Freedom Ridge Park, adding various recreational facilities. Both referendums highlight local investment in community sports and recreational development.

Mississippi casino shuts doors due to ‘computer glitch’
SUMMARY: Magnolia Bluffs Casino in Natchez closed on Friday due to a technical issue linked to its parent company, Saratoga Holdings. As of three days later, the casino remains shut, with security barring access. The issue has also affected Saratoga’s other casinos in New York and Colorado. Amy Brannigan, the company’s marketing director, confirmed they are working to resolve the problem but did not provide a timeline for reopening. Some social media comments expressed skepticism about the nature of the closure, despite the company’s insistence that it involves only IT problems. The casino was taken over by Saratoga in October 2022.
