"Ho, hum, we're glad that's out
of the way, now we can get ready
for the important games."
Such is the reaction of the
Micligan icers as they slumped to
a fourth place finish in WCHA
regular season competition, the
result of a disappointing weekend
with last place Minnesota. By ty-
Ing one game and losing the
other to the Gophers, the Wol-
verines dropped from a second to
a fourth place finish in the con-
ference.
If the icers had won the game
that they lost, they would have
placed second, or if they had won
the game they tied, the Wolverines
would have at least finished third.
Mike Marttlla, the icers captain,
explained the reason for the team's
lackadasical showing, "After we
lost to North Dakota and knew we
couldn't win the championship, it
really didn't matter where we end-
ed up. Instead we started con-
centrating on the NCAA tourna-
ment."
The NCAA competition is what
the team means by the important
games. With the regular season
over, the Wolverines go into the
WCHA playoffs looking for a berth
in the NCAA tournament to be
held in Syracuse, March 16-17-18.
In the WCHA playoffs, two con-
ference teams eventually make it
to the NCAA tournament. To de-
cide the teams, the eight school
league is divided into half to de-
termine the two representatives.
Tomorrow night Michigan en-
counters Michigan State in East
Lansing and the winner will play
the victor of the Michigan Tech-
Duluth. contest. The team that
survives that will be one of the
four teams goin to the NCAA tour-
nament. The other WCHA spot will
be occupied by the victor of the
contest between the Denver-Colo-
rado College winner and the North
Dakota-Minnesota winner.
In discussing Michigan's chances
of making it into the NCAA
championships, Marttila felt that
tomorrow's battle against the
Spartans would be their hardest.'

"If we make it past Michigan
State, our momentum should carry
us past either Michigan Tech or
Duluth." He also added that Mich-
igan Tech, should probably beat
Duluth.
The outcome of the Western
grouping is in even more doubt
than the Eastern. Denver will
probably overcome Colorado Col-
lege, and unless Minnesota's goal-
tending solidifies, North Dakota
should beat the Gophers. It's a
Denver - North Dakota meeting
that is unpredictable.
North Dakota is a fast skating
team but might fall due to a lack
of experience. Denver is a hard-
checking, experienced team, but
they will have to keep up with
North Dakota's speed if they are
to win. Both WCHA sections will
probably be won by which ever
team gets the breaks.
No matter which teams go to
the NCAA tournament, it is fairly
certain that a representative from
the WCHA will come out the
champion. The league usually
monopolizes the tournament and
with the strength of this year's
members, this dominance should
continue.
