EVANSVILLE, Ind. – One of the most popular events on the docket for the University of Evansville Athletics Department is set for July 11 as the annual Aces Stakes event will be held at The Bauerhaus.
 
Doors open at 5:30 p.m. with the steak fry dinner beginning at 6:30 p.m.  At 7:30 p.m., a drawing will be held to award the grand prize of $2,500.  Following the event, all winners will be posted to GoPurpleAces.com.
 
Purple Aces coaches, student-athletes and administrators will join the fans in attendance for a great night.  For those who have already registered, your $100 entry reserves you and one guest admission to the steak fry.  Those in attendance will also have the opportunity to renew their Aces Stakes entry for 2016-17 with the entry fee again set for $100 per ticket.
 
The Steak Fry auction will have some great items highlighted by a Men's Basketball overnight package when UE opens the season at the University of Louisville, a game program from the 1971-72 Men's Basketball team, seats from Roberts Stadium, a World Series baseball autographed by UE alumnus Jamey Carroll, Ford Center floor seats for a game, and the list continues to grow!  Funds raised from the event go to the Purple Aces Club Scholarship Fund to assist student-athletes at UE.
