IPAGE SIX THE MICHIGAN DAILY WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 1994 THE MICHIGAN UIAIIY WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 5,1984 'OSU Good Team on Great Night'-Strack SPORTS SHORTS: U.S. Fially Wins Gold Medal By GARY WINER "We just ran into a good team that had a great night," Coach Dave Strack commented yesterday with regard to his team's upset 86-86 basketball loss to Ohio State Monday night at Columbus. "Anytime a team like that starts hitting so many 20-footers, you're bound to be in trouble," he stated. Strack's team ran into an in- spired Buckeye squad that hit a fantastic 65 per cent of its shots in the second half while the Wol- verines pumped in 16 of 33 shots from the floor in the same period. For the game, Ohio State drilled in 34 of 66 for 51 per cent and Michigan sank 31 of 68 attempts for 45 per cent. Bradds Goes Wild Gary Bradds, who scraped to- gether 27 points against the Wol- verines in armpit-like Yost Field House two weeks ago, canned 23 points in the last period. This went with his 19 points in the first half to make him the leading scorer for the evening. Cazzie Russell led Michigan scoring with 30 points followed by Bill Buntin's 26. Buntin sank 62.5 per cent of his field goal attempts. Michigan dominated play for most of the first half, although the Buckeyes held on. The Wolver- ines had a nine point lead three times during that period at 18-9, 28-19, and 30-21. The latter score was registered with seven minutes remaining in the half and was to be Michigan's peak for the eve- ning. Guard Bob Cantrell drilled home a 15-footer with five minutes left in the first period to give Mich- igan a 35-27 lead, but the Buck- eyes stormed back with eight straight points to knot the con- test. 4. Playing nip-and-tuck basketball from then on, the Wolverines held a 41-39 lead with :42 left in the period. A quick jumper by Bob Dove and a free throw by Bradds gave the Buckeyes their 42-41. On Tube The Michigan-Illinois bas- ketball game for first place in the Big Ten will be televised Saturday on WWJ-TV Channel 4, starting at 2:30 p.m. halftime lead. Michigan, cooling off, missed its last eight shots in the half. The second period picked up where the first left off. Finally at 11:22, Ohio State took a 60-58 lead and were never headed from then on. Bill Triggers Buntin and Larry Tregoning brought the Wolverines back into the game and the scoreboard read 84-81 with just over a minute re- maining. Buntin drilled home another jumper at 1:02 leaving Michigan just one point shy of the Buckeyes. With a near-capacity crowd of 12,789 fans frantically screaming, Ohio forward Jim Shaffer popped AP CAGE POLL 1. UCLA (43) 17 0 484 2. Michigan (5) 15 1 429 3. Kentucky 15 2 372 4.

Michigan quickly brought the ball downcourt and passed it into Buntin. The big center hesitated for a moment, then maneuvered around his man to shovel the ball up for a layup. The shot missed; Buntin's tip missed again; Dar- den's tip missed; then the third and final tip by Russell rolled around and off. The Buckeyes' Tom Bowman then came down with the rebound and was fouled by Russell with only 13 seconds left in the game. Bowman Ices Bowman swished his one shot through and iced the game at 86- 83. Michigan quickly brought the ball downcourt and Russell amaz- ed the fans by popping in a long' jump shot from outside the key just seconds before the buzzer, went off. Massive St. John arena is a tough place for any visiting team to win a ball game. "I don't think it was so much the crowd and the arena, though," Strack comment-, ed. "After all, the fans can't play, the ball game for them. I will say this, though: they don't have as nice a crowd as they think they do." Ohio State's coach Fred Taylor stated after the contest that his defensive strategy had been to let Russell and Buntifi get what they could, while putting the pressure on the Wolverines' outside shoot- ers, Cantrell, Tregoning and Darden. Strack smiled a little. "If that's what he thinks he did, I think he's wrong. At least, it didn't look that way to me."

By The Associated Press INNSBRUCK, Austria - Terry McDermott, barber from the little town of Essexville, Mich., shatter- ed a long-time Russian monopoly and won the first gold medal for the United States withma 500- meter speed skating victory yes- terday in the ninth Winter Olym- pic Games. Racing over lightning ice on borrowed skates, the 23-year-old shears and scissors specialist beat the great Soviet champion, Eugeny Grishin, and clipped one-tenth of a second off Grishin's Olympic record with a clocking of :40.1. Thus, the Russians were merely slowed but not stopped in their domination of these snow and ice games. They boosted their harvest of medals to 19-seven gold, eight silver and four bronze-more than double the number of second place Germany, with eight. The United States has three- McDermott's gold added to a sil- ver and a bronze won by plucky Jean Saubert of Lakeview, Ore., on the Alpine slopes of Lizum Valley. UCLA Has Drag? LOS ANGELES-A rival coach's suggestion that basketball offi- keep trim ARCADE BARBERS NICKELS ARCADE cials may "unwittingly help first- ranked UCLA" was described yes- terday as "a lot of hooey" by Bruin Coach John Wooden. Coach Art Gallon of the Uni- versity of California at Santa Bar- bara implied Monday at a sports writers' luncheon in San Fran- cisco that officials, in making calls, may be affected by UCLA's 17-0 record. "I think it's hard for officials to call a game with UCLA now," Gallon said. "Officials are human. They look at that record and the statistics. Something subtle hap- pens to them." Gallon's team was beaten 107- 76 and 87-59 by the Bruins last weekend. "UCLA isn't as good as it's writ- ten up to be," Gallon said. "You hear a lot about their press but against us they got only eight points from it in two games." Said Wooden: "I have a.feeling we're more apt to have to earn more help from officials. We're up there in the ratings and don't get protection. I'm more inclined FREE COURSE IN ECONOMICS by correspondence for further information Henry George School Dept.
