THE MICIGAN B,

Icemen Entertain Pioneers

ver, the NCAA and WCHA
;ions last year, are making
away of the league this year,
e almost sure bets to gain a
in this year's NCAA Tourna-
which will be held in its
town.
s far this year, the powerful
rs have won all but one of
eague games. Their one loss
i Michigan Tech, runner-up
,nver in last 'year's' NCAA
unent, at Houghton, by the
core of 3-2.
High Scoring
y have averaged an amazing
als per game, and have won
in the strong WCHA by
opsided scores as 10-2 over
gan State, 15-1 over North
a, and 11-1 over Colorado
e.
y Walker, their leading
has averaged close to two
a game, and has scored a
menal eight hat tricks.
Walker, who has scored al-
twice as many points As
ran's leading scorer, is unfor-'
ly not the only goal getter
he Pioneers have.
More Scorers
re is Bill Masterson, the
r captain, who has ammased
al of 59 points, and Trent
r with 37 points, and Ken
mson with 31, and...
Denver defense, which like

the rest of this team, is rated the
best in the league, but, fortunately
for Michigan, the Pioneers have
two injured defensemen.
Marty Howe, and Grant Munro,,
were injured last week-end. They
will both make the trip, but as
of Wednesday it was questionable
whether or not they would see
full-time action.
George Kirkwood, their all-
american goalie, has averaged a
mere 18 saves per game as com-
pared to Denver's opponents' 37.
The Wolverine's, under coach Al
Renfrew, have. also had a fine
season thus far this year.
Solidly in second place in the
league standings, for the moment,
Michigan would like nothing bet-
ter than to sweep or even split
the upcoming series.

The Wolverines swept a series
earlier this year from the powerful
Michigan Tech Huskies, and we
must remember that it was they
who hold the one victory over the
Pioneers this season.
Another fact which must be
noted is that in the series at Den-
ver, the Pioneers won one of the
games by a mere goal, 4-3.
Michigan, also, has some of the
outstanding hockey players in the
WCHA, in Red Berenson, Larry
Babcock, John Palenstein and its
two goalies Jim Coyle and Dave
Butts.
Berenson, Michigan's leading
scorer, and third in the WCHA, is
according to Tony Frasca, Colo-
rado College hockey coach, "one
of the finest if not the finest
hockey player in the country."

Berenson had a very quiet week-
end against the CC Tigers, as he
was held without a goal, but a
skater like Berenson, as his re-
cord shows, is not kept down very
long, and he is just liable to break
out against the Pioneers.
According to Renfrew, the Mich-
igan squad is in near perfect con-
dition, as far as injuries are con-
cerned.
The Michigan mentor plans to
keep the line-up exactly as it has
been all year with the first line
of Berenson, Hinnegan, and Bab-
cock; the second line of Mac-
Donald, Lunghamer, and Kelly;
and his third line of Cushing at
Center, and McGonigal, Pendle-
bury, White, and Rhode alter-
nating at the wings.
The team is optimistic. They
have played just hard enough to
win so far this season at home,
and maybe, just maybe, they can
send the Pioneers home dis-
appointed.
