Page 10-Wednesday, September 13, 1978-The Michigan Daily Meter Davi selected I as Wolverine co-captains By ERNIE DUNBAR Russell Davis and Jerry Meter hold Michigan's fortunes at the pre- game coin flip this season, as they were selected by their teammates as the 1978 offensive and defensive co- captains. Neither Davis nor Meter are newcomers to winning awards. Davis, a 6-1, 226 lb. fullback racked up 1,092 yards last season en route to Michigan's backfield last season, Davis led the Wolverines in touch- down runs with eight and total points with 54. The Virginia native teamed up with quarterback Rick Leach to haul in 15 receptions, good for second place behind Ralph Clayton. While Davis was taking care of the offensive end of Michigan's game, Meter contributed 104 tackles at in- side linebacker, good enough for second place on a team which ranked second in the Big Ten and fourth in the nation in scoring prevention. Besides the ceremonial duty of representing their team before each game, Davis and Meter will be responsible for the much more serious leadership role. But this ad- ded requirement won't create any more pressure for Davis. "Every senior on the team takes the responsibilty of leadership on this team," said Davis. "That's the way Bo likes to run things." Asked if he was surprised when he heard of the distinction, Davis responded, "Sure. Nobody talks about who they're going to vote for so there is no way to know who is going to win. It's an honor you like to have." Balloting for both co-captains is done strictly by the players them- selves, with no influence from any of the coaches. The selection of Davis was a bit of a surprise, since nearly every pre- season article, magazine or newscast has mentioned Leach as the leader of the offensive squad. But therein lies the reason, accor- ding to coach Bo Schembechler, why Leach was not selected as one of the captains. "They (his teammates) know Leach has an awful responsibility of running the team," said Schem- bechler. While Leach directs the Michigan Russell Davis taking Most Valuable Player honors. Meter, who stands at 6-2%,'206 lbs., won the Frederick C. Matthaei Award following spring practice in 1977 as the junior-to-be who displayed leadership, drive, and achievement on the athletic field and in the clasroom. As one of the stalwarts in Jerry Meter offense this Saturday he'll be without the services of wingback Ralph Clayton, who's suffering from a hip pointer. "Alan Mitchell is going to start," Schembechler said of the 6-1, 176 lb. sophomore, "and he's a good one." Mitchell accounted for only one reception last season, but made his 33-yard reception against North- western count for a touchdown. AP Photo First base ballet!

The Yankees, who sawed apart the Fenway Park wall with 42 runs and 67 hits in four games, tallied just eight hits last night whileallowing the Tigers three homers, three doubles and a triple among their ten hits. Kip Young pitched seven strong in- nings for Detroit in raising his record to 6-5. John Hiller came on in the eighth to strike out two in one and one-third in- nings of relief. THE TIGER DEFENSE was ex- cellent all night, as the Tigers turned three key double plays, made seveal good running catches, including a heart-stopping, game-ending play by Aurelio Rodriguez. The loss kept the Yankees a half game back of the front-running Bosox Hi Pr eOnI Vanai streak as Boston dropped a 3-2 game to the Baltimore Orioles. The Tigers took complete control of the game for the first seven innings, cranking three home runs off Yankee starter Dick Tidrow. STEVE KEMP gave the Tigers their first three runs in the first inning. Ron LeFlore had led off with a high chopper over third baseman Graig Nettles. The ball died in the wet outfield grass and LeFlore slid in with a double. After Lou Whitaker struck out and Rusty Staub walked, Jason Thompson blasted a long fly to dead center which Mickey Rivers finally flagged down. LeFlore tagged and moved to third. TheKempstepped up and deposited Tidrow's first delivery into the third row of the rightfield upper deck, for his thirteenth circuit clout of the year, and a 3-0 Tiger lead. THE TIGERS continued to pound Tidrow in the third. LeFlore led off with a homer into the right field corner on which Reggie Jackson just missed making a leaping catch.
