Making up an 81-74 deficit in the last 56 seconds of regulation play, the Wolverines turned what Strack called "a slim chance" in- to reality bringing back memories of the 80-78 victory over Prince- ton. Bill Buntin hit a free throw, John Thompson a 25-footer, and then Buntin came back with a Iayup to bring the score to 81-79 Indiana. Larry Tregoning, who was six for siv from the free throw line, made good his two foul shots to knot the score be- fore the buzzer sounded. Another comeback by the Mich- igan cagers was necessary to tie the score in the first overtime. The Hoosiers had a four point lead, but Tregoning scored two points from the charity stripe be- fore Cazzie Russell tipped in a bucket to bring the score to 92- 92. Of the seven points scored in the second overtime, the Wolver- ines accounted for four of them.; Pomey's quick basket and Rus- Cagers Hold First Spot In Poll for Third Week By The Associated Press Michigan, ranked number one by by the Associated Press for the third straight week in the college basketball poll, continued to hold a commanding lead with 23 first place votes and 349 points.

Low Percentage Although the nation's first and eighth-ranked teams shot a me- diocre 37.9 and 36.9 percentag,. respectively from the field, Strack praised the Hoosiers for playing "at the top of their ability." He said that their hustle and team- work overshadowed their relative- ly poor shooting percentage. How do you pick a star in such a game? Russell scored 23 points to share Michigan scoring hon, ors with Buntin. Although he did not connect on a single field goal. in the second half, Cazzie's tip- in brought thergame into double- overtime where his two free throws "won" the game.

So say both Michigan hockey Coach Al Renfrew and Wolver- ine Marty Read. Both men shoul4 know. Renfrew has coached some of the best small men in college hockey, and Read, at 5T8", 160 is one of the smallest players on the Michigan squad. Commenting on Read's size Renfrew stated, "A man his size has got to be smart. Marty's a. good skater who doesn't get hurt He's smart enough to get away with it." Through the first 21 games this season, Read has equalled his goal total of last year with seven. Three of those goals came within the final three minutes of the first Michigan-Colorado game to give, the Wolverines a 7-5 win. Best Game "That was my best game," Read recalled, "it was the first hat trick I ever scored. But the best game we've played this year yas the time we beat Michigan Tech, 6-1." Marty's seventh goal of the sea- son closed out the scoring in that game. Read has also been involved in Renfrew's frequent line changes lie's played with three different lines, as a right winger. "I started the season with Wilf (Martin) and Alex (Hood," Mar ty commented, "and now I'm back' with them. I like playing with Mel (Wakabayashi) the best. He can really set you up. When yor change lines like that, you have to learn each other's moves - everybody's are different. It takes about a week, but you have to make the, adjustment. It gives you experience, and you need al' the experience you can get in this league." A junior from Regina, Sas- katchewan, Marty feels the tough- est play for any wing is to come in along the boards and get off a good shot, or a centering pass. At the same time Renfrew callE Marty's slap shot to the far cor- ner his best play. Good Backchecker Renfrew also feels Marty. has "improved in his overall play over last year, especially his back- checking. We've never used him as a penalty killer. He's up and down the ice on his wing more than some of the other players, and we prefer using men like Pierre Dechaine to kill penalties1 As for skating, Marty's a good, strong skater. Marty also can claim the long- est goal scored by Michigan this season. In the first game against the Spartans, he cleared the puck from inside his own blue line and into the open State net to ice the 6-3 victory. Commenting on the goal, Read stated, "I was trying to score. With an ,open net, I wasn't looking for just a clearing pass." At 22, Marty will close out his collegiate hockey career this year and has no future plans as far a' hockey is concerned. In the School of Education, Marty is looking forward to a, physical education and history teaching career.

Michigan's hockey team heads into a key two and one-half weeks tonight as the Blue meet Michi- gan State at the Coliseum at f p.m.I The prize at stake is a spot ir the WCHA playoffs. Only four of the seven teams in the league will play in the post-seaspn tourna- ment. The two playoff winners have, in the past, been the West- ern representatives to the NCAA tournament which the Wolverinesj won last year. "We have five big games left, one with State and two each with Minnesota and Michigan Tech,' said Coach Al Renfrew yesterday "The week off we had has helped us. We are in better shape than we were the last time we played State. That goes for both menta and physical preparedness. "When we played them before we had played five games in nine. days, and just weren't able to get up for another game. Now we are rested, and the boys know what they have to do. As for physical injuries, everyone ir healthy including Barry MacDon ald, who has had knee trouble. and Bob Baird, who had slight heart trouble." State Has Edge Michigan State holds a 2-3 edge on the Blue in this season's games. Michigan won the first game of the series in East Lans- ing by a score of 6-3. In that contest the Wolverines scorec' three goals in the last five mm- utes of play to win. But Michi- gan lost both games of a home- away series, 7-4 and 6-2. With teams that Renfrew called "so equal," anything can happen "We had a good chance to beat them at Lansing in the secont' game, but we couldn't put the puck in the net. "Now everything is coming down to the wire. We have five games left to play, as does State. They stand 5-4 in the conference while we are 6-7. State has a slight advantage in fighting for the playoff spot in that they play the remainder of their games at home, while we have two at home 1and two away. "Minnesota is not assured of P playoff spot either because they only have an 8-6 record with four games left to play, so it will be real close all the way. c"If there should be a tie in th standings, then the places will be decided on the basis of the difference between goals for an goals against. This is a change i- the rule which used to base the placing on a team's overal rec- ord. This doesn't put us in a very good position 'since we lost by high scores to Tech and Minneso- ta."

I FRESH FROM HOOSIER WHITEWAS 7- 7 * -m-- Keen Looks Ahead to Iowa L1I i.4AU iU~ij 7 By BOB CARNEY Last Saturday Indiana's college newspaper, the Daily Student, prophesied that its wrestlers just might be the first team in three years to knock off the third- ranked Michigan Wolverines. Sunday, Indiana's college news- paper, the Daily Student, offered a descriptive match-by-match ac- count of an unheard-of 30-0 mat shutout-withMichigan holding the "edge." The Hoosiers were convinced. Keen Not Convinced It appears, however, that it will take more than a 30-0 shutout to convince Michigan's Coach Cliff Keen-convince him, that is, that his team is ready to take its third straight Big Ten title., "We're not that good. Indi- ana's not that bad," Keen said candidly Monday as his Wolver- ines began preparation for Satur- day's meet at Iowa. "We were awfully fired-up, and they were badly crippled," he added. "It's difficult to compare teams under those circumstances. You can be sure they'll be much tougher by the time the confer- ence meet rolls around (March 5-6, in Ann Arbor) ." But if Keen wasn't particular- ly impressed by Saturday's score, he was pleased with 1) the fact that his team had cast its fifth straight Big Ten opponent by the wayside with only two conference foes left on the agenda; and 2v that three of his wrestlers scor- ed falls in whipping their Hoos- ier counterparts. Go for Fall Keen has been stressing the im- portance of going for the fall and the near-fall season, and his mat- men now lead the league in that department. Bob Fehrs opened the meet with a quick first-period fall on his 123-pound opponent Larry Nunn. It was the fourth pin of the sea- son for the undefeated sophomore, who is leading the team in that category. Captain Rick Bay was the sec- ond Wolverine of the afternoon to fell his opponent when he put away Jim Black in the second period of their 167-pound match Bay used a bar lock and a half- nelson to gain the fall, which game him his third conference win of the season. Stowell's Third Chris Stowell followed in the 177-pound division with the meet's third .pin, also his third of the season. Stowell combined a leg scissors and an armlock to whir Hoosier Jim Timmons. Asked if Saturday's one-sided score, coupled with the fact that the Wolverines are strong favor- ites at Iowa before their Home- coming meet with MSU climaxes the season would cause a mental letdown, Keen was sure it would not. "The boys realize that we are improving, and we must continue to improve," he said. "We're going to have to be at our best to lick State-they're a great team." Keen cited the Spartans' crushing 22-3 victory over Ohio State last weekend as evidence of their prowess. For a second reason a letdown doesn't appear likely at this time: At several positions the wrestler who's to see action in the Big Ten Meet hasn't yet been chosen. -. attles for Position The position battles at 147 and 130 are good examples. This week- nd Keen went with Jim Kamman at 147, and the sophomore scored a strong 5-0 shutout win; but Cal Jenkins, who wrestled at that spat in the other four conference meets, is also undefeated. The competition at 130 between Doug Hornung and Dave Dozeman is similarly very close, as are the battles in a couple of other divi- sions. With these facts in mind Keer continues to look ahead for im- provement. He wants to be con- vinced.
