SOCCER The graduate soccer club fell to Eastern Michigan last Saturday, 2-1. De- spite its defeat, captain Art Andersen called the team's performance the "best effort of the year." Unlike their graduate counterparts, the undergrads cruised to victory last Wednesday, defeating the University of Toledo, 2-1. The first Blue goal was scored by Stefan Mitkov from Jan Broere. Dave Ritchie, assisted by Bob Zack, put the contest on ice for the Wolverines with his game-winning goal. On Sunday, mistakes took their toll as the undergrads were beaten by Oakland University. Michigan held a 1-0 lead at the midway point, with the credit for its score going to Ritchie, assisted by Bruce Davidson. Then the Blue squad helped Oakland in its scoring effort when an errant pass to the goaltender slipped into the corner of the net. Though Coach Steve Olsen called the goal "kind of demoralizing," he ,was pleased with his team's performance. "It was the kind of loss that really didn't bother me because we played really well," said Olsen. "Oakland is 'probably the best soccer team in the state. We let them know they're not "alone at the top." RUGBY Michigan senior Bill Chung led a strong 'A' squad in a 13-4 victory last weekend over Michigan State, with nine points on three penalty goals. Tom Aboyne added four points on a try, rugby's equivalent to a touchdown in football. "Thisgame was satisfying because we were coming off a two-game losing streak," said captain Jack Goodman. "Hopefully this will get us on the right track." The rugby club travels to Battle Creek next weekend. " ROWING The Michigan rowing club entered three boats in the Head of the Thames regatta held in London, Ontario last weekend. The field consisted of seven university crews, eight rowing club, and two high school squads. Amongst mostly Canadian teams, the Blue rowers fared relatively poorly. The lightweight men's four turned in Michigan's best finish, fourth of seven in a race won by the London Rowing Club. The women's eight finished seventh of eight crews, while the men's eight ended up last in a nine-boat race, ultimately claimed by the Detroit Boat Club. "One way to explain the results is the fact that that was the last race of the season for the Canadian clubs, who have been rowing together since spring," said rower Alex Johnson. "We're generally encouraged. The boats we raced were really good, and the races were close." Next Sunday, the rowing club will travel to Boston to participate in the Head-of-the-Charles Regatta. Michigan has entered four boats in the Bean-' town classic - the lightweight four, the "club" eight, the mixed eight, and the womep's eight., SAILING Last weekend. the Michigan sailing club. took top honors in Iowa's Davis Cup Regatta, thereby upholding its ranking among the .top ten teams nationally. Freshman Doug Wefer and Karl Neumann easily won the 'A' division title, while'Harry Levinson and Hal Wittacre finished second in the 'B' division. ., A second Blue sailing squad travelled to, Toledo, where it dominated eleven midwestern schools. John Fullerton and Joanne Kure took first place in the.'A' division. Teammates Glen Walborn and Lydia Hatton claimned 'B' division's second place. MARK FISCHER The Michigan Daily-Tuesday, October 16, 1979-Page 9 WOMEN STUMBLE, MEN EXCEL Hiarriers turn tables By JOHN FITZPATRICK Battling wet, windy, and cold con- ditions, the men's cross-country team gained a measure of revenge for their third-place finish at the Notre Dame Invitational last week, as they defeated Michigan State, 20-35, and Minnesota, 18-42, in a triangular meet last Satur- day at East Lansing. The Wolverines dominated the first five places of the 10 kilometer race, with Dan Heikkinen in first (30:32), Dave Lewis second (30:40), and Brian Diemer fourth (30:51). Rounding out the scoring runners for Michigan were Danny Beck in sixth (31:20) and Gary Parenteau in tenth (31:37). MICHIGAN'S TOP five hung on well despite- a torrid 4:45 first mile and chilly, damp weather. "MSU had a good group, said Coach Ron Warhurst, "but they weren't bun- ched up enough. Our performance here was much better than at the Notre Dame Invitational last week." Warhurst also sees continued im- provement for the harriers in upcoming competition. "Thursday was the first time we've done any sharpening-up work. Once we start, increasing our speed work, our times should start to come down." Michigan's defeat of the Spartans bodes well for its Big 10 title chances, as its main competition will now come from Indiana and traditionally strong Wisconsin team. 13iNo1TfliP VOLLEYBALL At Central Michigan, Oct. 16 MICHIGAN TOURNAMENT, Oct. 20 FIELD HOCKEY at Toledo, OcINK1 BIG TEN TOURNAMENT, Oct. 19-20 WOMEN'S GOLF MAIAW at Purdue, Oct. 19-20 MEN'S CROSS COUNTRY MICHIGAN FEDERATION MEET, Oct. 20 WOMEN'S CROSS COUNTRY BIG TEN CHAMPIONSHIP, Oct. 20 HOCKEY at Bowling Green, Oct. 19 FOOTBALL at Illinois, Oct. 20 BY JOHN FITZPATRICK Bad weather and sub-par performan- ces plagued the women's cross-country team last Saturday, as they finished third in the Western Michigan In- vitational with 66 points, behind the 48 points of Central Michigan and the 54- point total of Bowling Green. Melanie Weaver led the way for the Wolverines, finishing the 3.1 mile cour- se at Kalamazoo in 18:44, good for second place. The winner, Becky'Dob- son of Bowling Green, finished a mere two seconds ahead of Weaver, kicking her way by the tiring harrier in the closing stages of the race. OTHER TOP finishers for Michigan included Sue Frederick in ninth, Dawn Woodruff (13th), Julie Clifford (18th), and Sharon Wigglesworth (24th). "I don't understand it," said Michigan Coach Red Simmons. "We've beaten Bowling Green and Central before. We just had a bad day. "We are improving each time we compete, but so are the other teams. We may havesbeen overconfident in this meet after having defeated all the other teams at the Bowling Green In- vitational and in other meets." ,.aAM,gN b - ano eLecTronic Games n fOCUS Y~lum""""" "HGHuU~ ruraen A : NO MINORS UNDER 18 YRS.
