Page 8-Sunday, February 18, 1979-The Michigan Daily 16TH DEFEAT IN LAST 17 TRIES Badger dekers bounce Blue, 6-4 By BILLY SAHN The Michigan icers danced the night away last night at Yost Ice Arena, but left the floor in defeat. The Wolverine Hustle just couldn't compete with the Badger' Bounce, as Wisconsin beat Michigan 6-4. With the- game tied 4-4 at the start of the third period, defenseman Bob Suter of Wisconsin shot the puck by Michigan goalie Rudy Varvari on a two-on-one break. The go-ahead power play goal came 44 seconds into the third period. SUTER'S GOAL was all Wisconsin needed as they went in front of the Wolverines 5-4. But, with Varvari off the ice and six Blue icers pressuring Wisconsin goal keeper Roy Schultz for a tying score, Badger Dave Speer shot the puck down the ice. It glided into the empty Wolverine net at 19:31, thus icing the Wisconsin victory. "Schultz had a hot hand,"-com- mented Badger coach Bob Johnson. "He looked good tonight, as he did last night (in.the Badgers' 8-3 victory)." The game was a hard-hitting match, with both teams spending 30 minutes in the penalty box. The intense play was exhibited most during the second period. " Down 3-0 at the end of one period, Michigan employeddthe Wolverine Hustle, to tie the gafne up after 40 minutes of play. THE WOLVERINES wasted no time at the start of the second stanza, scoring their first goal 29 seconds into the. period. Defenseman Tim Manning notched a power play goal on a slap shot from just inside the'blue line. However, Wisconsin quickly respon- ded as Rod Romanchuk tallied his four- th goal of the night at 16:21, knocking in Suter's rebound., Then at 5:27 into the period, captain Mark Miller of Michigan scored the icers' second goal of the night. Breaking loose for a one-on-one situation, Miller faked, pumped, and scored unassisted against Badger net- minder Schultz. Following the example set by his cap- tain, Bill Wheeler challenged Schultz and scored for the Wolverines. The goal, coming at 8:05 on a centering pass, made the scoreboard read 4-3. STILL PRESSING, the Wolverines tied up the game four all when Dennis May banged the puck in hard at 13:31. The score Icame on a one-on-one fast break down the ice. Unfortunately, the heated action during the second period caused one crunching blow. Wolverine left wing Jeff Tessier was cheoked by Badger Theran Welsh, and fell immediately to the ice. He was taken to the hospital with a torn ligament in the knee, and is out for the year according to coach Dan Farrell. "We're not consistent," remarked Farrell. Farrell's complaint comes in reference to the team's excellent play during the second period, but relatively poorplay during the rest of the game. THE WOLVERINES' sloppy play was' most evident during the first period. Duing this stanza, Badger wing Romanchuk scored a hat trick. His three tallies compared to the Wolverines' zero did little to aid the Blue cause. Badgers Jim Scheid and Ron Griffin combined with Romanchuk for all of the scoring honors in that period. Scheid assisted on each of the first- period goals while Griffin helped out on two of them. Blue women edged by last-second shot By LIZ MAC As heartbreaking ballgames go, this one was tops. Unforunately, it was the Michigan women's basketball team that was left with bitter memories. The cagers ran neck and neck against a tough Michigan State squad but were beaten at the buzzer yesterday,78-77 at Crisler Arena. Michigan, now 11-11, pulled ahead with less than one minute left to play, 77-74, on two sets of free throws by Diane Dietz and Brenda Venhuizen. But Michigan State freshwoman Debbie Traxinger added two of her own with 44 seconds left to make it 77-76. State regained possession a short time later and had an inbounds play under the Michigan basket with seven seconds left. After the Spartans put up two missed shots, Traxinger again stepped into the hero role by frantically grabbing a rebound and putting up a shot, which wobbled on the rim and fell in at the buzzer to ice it for the Spartans (12-9). ''Our strategy was that if the shot went up and missed, crash the boards for a rebound," said Spartan coach Karen Langeland. "Debbie's a guard, but she's used to rebounding because she was a forward in high school. She's been doing it all year for us." Both teams boasted a potent offensive attack, althoughthe Wolverines' man-to-man defense held State in check throughout most of the afternoon. Midway through the fast-paced first half, Michigan began to pull away. Thanks to 10 first-half points by Venhuizen and the hot. shooting of Abby Currier, Michigan's lead stretched to 10 points. State began to catch up late in the first half, howeverLed by forward Lorraine Hyman, the Spartans had pulled withi two before being held off by the Wolverine defense. The half ended with Michigan on top 42-34. Balanced scoring attacks came from both sides in the second half. Dietz came out to score most of her game-leading 20 points, and.State countered with Mary Kay Intyre and Nanette Gibson, who each tallied 14 points. But it was the rebounds that kept the Spartans in the game. With the help of an amazing 21 rebounds by Gibson, State dominated the boards as the two teams exchanged the lead until the final second. "We played a good game," said Michigan coach Gloria.Soluk. "We ran our offense, and I felt like we did pretty good on our man-to-man." Rounding out the Wolverine scoring was Currier with 15 points and Venhuizen, who played one of her best games of the year, with 14. The Spartans also had three other players in double figures, including Laurie Reynolds with 14, Gale Valley with 13, and Hyman with 10. Michigan's next home game is against Eastern Michigan tomorrow night at 7: 00 at Crisler. Women turn green Sweep City Blues FIRST PERIOD Scoring: 1. W-Romanchuk (Scheid, Griffin) 5:58. 2.

Michigan State 34 MEN SWAMP SPARTANS Women tankers capture 4th Big Ten title By MARK MIHANOVIC The Michigan women's swim team continued its Big Ten "dynasty" last night at Matt Mann Pool, winning its fourth championship is as many years. Coach Stu Isaac isn't getting bored with success, though. "Every one is a little special in its own way," he said after the meet. "It was the best Big Ten meet there's ever been. Right from top to bottom it was really close. It's fantastic for Big Ten swimming. It is really becoming a good conference."~ POOL OR conference records were broken in 20 of the 22 swimming events over the last three nights. Michigan outscored second-place Indiana 1098.5- 710.5 for' the title. "It's obvious that in Big Ten men's and women's swimming, Michigan and Indiana are the two powers," commented Isaac. Sue Collins was the sole individual winner for the Wolverines last night, with a victory lin the 50-yard butterfly. The 400-yard freestyle relay team of Kim Olson, Katy McCully, Collins, and Mary Rish completed the Blue's sweep of all relay events. The big race of the evening for Isaac was the 1650-yard freestyle. "I'll probably remember Lori Hughes' 1650 for the rest of my coaching career. She went out and swam the best race of her career." Hughes finished second int he race after leading most of the way with a time of 17:20.22. Marie Palko took two seconds for the women, in the 200-yard breaststroke and the 100-yard IM. Michigan also dominated the three- meter event, with Barb Weinstein, Julie Bachman, and Ann McDivitt finishing second, third, and fourth, respectively. KATY McCULLY came up just short in her quest for a tenth Big Ten title, finishing second in the 100-yard freestyle by three one-hundredths of a second. Isaac is looking ahead to the AIAW nationals in March. "We certainly have to be considered in the top ten (nationally). Our goal is seven, but we really hve to perform well to finish there." Men cruise The Michigan men tankers crushed Michigan State yesterday in a duel meet, 77-36, in East Lansing. The Wolverines captured first place in ten of the 13 events contested as Matt Chelich and Fernando Canales were double winners for Michigan. Chelich won both the one meter and three meter springboard diving com- petitions by large margins in an out- 'standing individual peformance. Canales raced to victories in the 200 and 500 yard freestyle to lead the Blue swimmers., Michigan State was paced by Bob Lundquist who won the 200 yard in- dividual medley and the 200 yard breaskstroke. Michigan's Tom Pederson took first in the 50 free and second in the 100 free behind teammate John Spaid. Paul Griffith of the Wolverines finished first in the 200 back and second in the 50 free. Other winners for Michigan were Mike Dauw in the 1000 free, Scott Crowder in the 200 butterfly, and Andy Griffith, Kevin Morgan, John Slykhouse and Tom Dudley in the 400 free relay.

Islanders 4, Philadelphia 2 i v v as a v a. v The Michigan women gymnasts fell prey to the "lookingahead" syndrome at Bowling Green yesterday, and the Falcons took full advantage of it to sweep the Wolverines and Miami(0.) in a triangular meet.i It was to be a tuneup for the Blue tumblers before next weekend's SMAIAW state championships, but the Wolverines (21-3) let some lethargy creep into their routines. A more en- thusiastic Falcon squad rolled up a 130.45 point total, with Michigan narrowly behind at 128.35 and the Reskins far back with a 106.35 tally. "We looked a little tired out there," SWEATERS 25-50% off' said Wolverine coach Scott Ponto. "There weren't any real strategic mistakes," he continued. "They (the team) just haven't had any rest. I think we'll rest everybody for a short time before the state meet." Amid the rather dismal performance were some bright spots. Freshman Cindy Shearon used a new tumbling pass on her floor exencise routine, finishing with a 8.15 third-place score. And Laurie Miesel came through 'with her best balance beam performance of the season, grabbing second place with an 8.1 mark. But the Wolverine all-arounders, the pillars of success throughout the cam- paign, failed to gain the high marks necessary for victory. Only Sara Flom (32.5) and Mia Axon (31.2), broke into the top five, claiming second and fifth place, respectively. The Spartans successfully defended their Big Ten tumbling title last weekend, while the Wolverines took third. -ALAN FANGER OPEN 'TIL 11PM LONG UNDERWEAR HATS & GLOVES KNICKER SOX 400o Of f Large Selection of PANTS $5.99 MONDAY ONLY- .
