"They (Michigan) played very
poorly tonight-their team could
have been the reason."
Thus a dejected Al Renfrew tried
to put as bright a picture as pos-
sible on what had to have been
one of the Wolverines worst per-
formances of the year. The final
tally was 5-1, Wisconsin, and that
was a good indication of difference

goals for Wisconsin. stage for what was to come."
What came for Michigan was
frustration. Halfway through the
first period Michigan found them-
selves two men up as the Badgers'
Brian Erickson and Tom Machow-
ski both went out within 28 sec-
onds of one another.
Almost immediately the Wolver-
ines put the puck in the net but
the referees disallowed it, claim-
ing the whistle had already blown.
The Wolverines still had a minute
to work-two men up-but they
failed to convert and that appeared
to take some of the spark out of
them.
Things quickly went from bad
to worse for Michigan in the third
period as Wisconsin's, Lloyd Bent-
ley took a slap shot . that Karl
Bagnell deflected out in front.
Everyone seemed suddenly im-
mobilized and Bentley skated in
and shot the puck around the
sprawled Bagnell.
Halfway through the second
period the Wolverines garnered
their lone tally as Paul-Andre
Paris dug the puck out from under
Badger goalie Jim Makey and
slipped it in unassisted.
Bob Falconer, who injured his
ankle last week against Michigan
Tech hurt it again in the opening
moments of the third period and
had to be assisted off. He later
returned and immeidately rein-
jured his leg, this time going off
for good.
Bagnelll, alas, could not afford
the luxury of seeking refugee in
the locker room and so when a
Bentley slap shot hit him in the
chest he was quickly repaired and
returned to the ice to finish out
the game. Spare goalie Terry La-
jeunesse started to warm up but
returned to the bench as Bagnell
continued his streak of having
played every minute of every
Michigan game this year. His first
save of the game was his 1,000
of the year, far ahead of anyone
else in the WCHA.

whom Lowinger defeated last
weekend.
Gary Ernst provided most of the
match's excitement when he pin-
ned his Wisconsin heavyweight
counterpart, Randy Frokjer, in
1:16. Ernst fired out quickly and
garnered a takedown in the first
twenty seconds. After that it was
just a matter of time before Ernst
recorded the fall.
Jim Brown and Bill Davids did
just what was expected of them,
both recording lopside superior
decision victories. Brown came
within an inch of pinning Badger
Jeff Saggau in the first period and
had him on the ropes throughout
the match in chalking up a 15-1
triumph. Davids too was in con-
trol all of the way, coming closest
to pinning Larry Gonzalez in the
waning seconds of their bout.
Lon Harris almost preceded
Ernst's pin with one of his own.
In the first thirty seconds, he
gained a takedown and a near fall
that came only on eyelash from
being a pin. But then Harris
slacked off and played patsy with

Wisconsin's Joe Wade until the
final minute of the match. Har-

racking up two more takedowns
to push the final t.o 11-2.
The Big Ten's- runner-up 177
pounder from last season, Pete
Leiskau of Wisconsin, turned in
one of the Badgers two wins by
taking Michigan freshman Dave
Curby 4-0.
Wolverine Rick Neff nearly
captured a third straight super-
ior decision victory when he
downed Dale Spies 11-6 at 134'
lbs. Realizing he had 4 chance
for a superior decision, Neff made
some bold moves in the third per-
iod which backfired. Normally
he would not have taken such
risks, but with the chance of gain-
ing an extra match t point they
were well worth the risk.
Bill Schuck and Mitch Men-
drygal rounded out the con-
quest of Wisconsin with impres-
sive 7-1 and 3-0 wins.
Michigan coachsRick Bay was
particularly pleased with Hub-
bard's win. As he put it, "Jerry
needed a victory tonight to have
any chance of gaining the seed
he deserves in the Big Ten meet
next Saturday."
Bay was very pleased with the
ovarell performance of his squad
in what he called "a vast im-
provement over last Saturday's
match at Michigan State." He
also claimed that "had we wrest-
led, this well last weekend, we
would have given Michigan State
a much better contest."

The 44 points were the most
ever allowed by the Nets in a single

The Floridians hit 51 per cent

They led by as much as 32 points
during the third quarter.
