THE MICHIGAN DAILY Saturday, February 22, 1969 Upset minded Illini sophomores severe threat to 'NI' gymnasts Wolverines The Lineups take on vengeful Illini By JERRY CLARKE The Michigan Gymnasts travel to Illinois today in hopes of matching last week's stunning success. If the two teams live up to their previous form, the Wol- verines should once again prove' that they are a force to be reck- oned with on the national scene. The chance that the squad is looking ahead to next week's dual meet with Iowa could provide the talented and eager Illini with just what they need to pull off an up- set. Coached by Charlie Pond, Il- linois has been steadily improving since the mid '60's, when Illini gym fortunes were at a low ebb. Pond's record at Illinois has been impressive. At the start of this year, he boasted a dual meet record of 122 wins, 48 losses, and 1 tie, with 20 of those losses coming in the 1963-65 period. Eleven Big Ten and four NCAA team titles offer further testimony to his coaching prowess. This year's team is young and eager. They have been defeated but twice in Big Ten competition. The powerful Iowa team outscored them by four points, and they lost to Michigan State by a mere two tenths of a point. Led by team captain Jack Mc- Carthy' and all-around perform- ers Ed Raymond and Larry Butts, their lineup includes seven sopho- mores, around whom the Illini are building for the future. A victory this weekend could start Illinois on the road back to the height it was once accustomed to in the gymnastics world. They will have to oppose a Wol-' verine team that is sound phys-i ically and which could be just reaching its peak. Facing Michi-; gan on the rings, the strongest event of last week's meet, will be a squad consisting of Jack Davis, Arnie Sepke, Butts, and Raymond. Raymond also keys the side horse team, where he has been scoring in the 9's all season. It is in this area that Michigan is hoping for improvement over lasti week. Michigan coach Newt Loken ex- presses the normal amount of, "coaches concern," but notes that, he doesn't really expect a letdown. He asserts that the squad will "take them in order," and not look past the Illini to the Iowa meet here in Ann Arbor, 6-4 6-6 6-2 5-9 6-8 MICHIGAN Bob Sullivan Dennis Stewart Dan Fife Ken Maxey Rudy Tomjanovich F F G G C ILLINOIS Dave Scholtz Randy Crews Jodie Harrison Mike Price Greg Jackson 6-8 6-5 6-3 6-3 6-8 By DAVE HANNES The up and down Wolverine cagers will attempt to extend their Big Ten win streak to three this afternoon in a battle with Il- linois. The 2:30 encounter at Champaign will be a rematch of a game played 11 days ago The Illini will employ the same starting lineup as they did in their previous game with Michigan. In the middle will be Greg Jackson. who stands 6-8. Jackson has been a big scorer for Ilinois, holding the schoolrrecord for most points by a sophomore center.

Harrison scored 11 points and ..r_ played a fine floor game at the Events Building before fouling out Big Ten Standings Iiof the contest. Price's play was career as he made 13 of 26 at- tempts from the floor for a whop- ping 69.3 field goal percentage. He was the game's leader in both points and rebounds with 37 and 11 respectively but unfortunately Tomjanovich was able to connect on only one of his six free throws. Coach Campbell was extremely impressed with the 6-7 junior stating, "He shot over Jackson well and made some tremendous long shots. I think we really caught that big guy on a great night. He's like Rick Mount in that both have the ability to break a teatn's spirit by hitting on three or four long ones in just a couple minutes of playing time." Although far from pleased with his own team's defense against Michigan, which he described as "passive" in allowing 92 ooints, Campbell was also unimpressed with the Wolverines' ability to stop the opposition from scoring. "It seems like defense just isn't their bag as the saying goes. Mich- igan has an effective zone but not a great one. I can't understand why they don't play better defense because the team has a lot cf talent." After losing at Michigan and at Michigan State, Illinois handed Ohio State a decisive 16-point de- feat. Coach Campbell was delight- ed with the performance of the Illini against the Buckeyes saying, "It was a real fine game thanks in part to our home court. If the boys play as well against Michi- gan as they did last Tuesday, we'll be in great shape. U TENANTS: THE STRIKE IS ON!I REMEMBER -.

At this point, with the score 12- 6 for Michigan, the meet was for all intents and purposes over, as the Wolverines' strong trio of Tom Quinn, Jesse Rawls, and P e t e Cornell had yet to make their ap- pearances. Quinn continued the momen- tum built up .by the middle- weights when he scored four points in the last period to earn a 5-3 verdict over Jim Axtel. Rawls provided the crowd with the best entertainment of the day as he playfully toyed with his op- ponent en route to an 8-2 win. Several times Rawls had oppor- tunities to pin his tiring opponent, but each time the hapless Gopher was able to squirm out of the pining combination.
