T oday,

Pennsylvania, but decided for
now he wants to be a student,
not a student-athlete, because
of the time football requires.
"I talked to some people
who played and I talked to the
coach at Penn. Every college,
especially Division I, it's at
least three hours a day and I
want to go to college to study,"
Askenazy said.
Askenazy will study
business administration at
MSU this fall, athough he
may eventually transfer to
U-M.
Meanwhile he, like
Gurecki, will try to get his
sports "fix" from intramural
activities. He will play
hockey, but is leaving the
door open to football. "If I
really miss football this year,
I'm going to stay in shape
enough to go play somewhere
as a sophomore. I'll walk on
somewhere?'
Askenazy said he won't play
football, even as a sophomore,
unless his studies go well.
The three seniors are all
happy with their choices now.
How well they do on the field,
or how much they miss being
on the field will determine
whether or not the trio re-

main happy with their
choices next year.
Lansky, who has played
hockey all four years Andover
has offered the sport,
graduates as the team's all-
time leading scorer with 152
points (teammate Brad
Zamler was runner-up with
135). He copped league and
state honors for his play as
well as his academic
achievements this year (he
carries a 3.4 academic
average) and both the Univer-
sity of Colorado and Colorado
State hockey coaches in-
quired about him.
But an honest self-appraisal
of his abilities vis-a-vis trying
to play for either U-M or MSU
made him opt, after visiting
Indiana's campus, for Hoosier
status.
"I wanted to get away from
Detroit and to play hockey,"
he said. "Besides, if I make
the Indiana club team, I can
travel with them — they play
road games' ' and he was told
his chances of doing the
former are pretty good.
The four seniors are happy
with their choices. They'll
know if they were the right
choices when the grass turns
green again. ❑
