If Michigan does finish eighth, their first round opponent will be the first place team. Number two plays number seven. And so on. When this is finally taken care of, the two teams will play a two game series for total goals. This means that Michigan could. conceivably beat Wisconsin 5-4, then lose 4-2 and lose the series by virtue of having scored few- er goals. The first playoff games will take place next Tuesday and Wednesday, March 7 and 8. The survivors will go on to an- other series the following week- end. As far as individual milestones for Michigan players go, Bernie Gagnon. who will be making what will probably be his last appearance at the Coliseum Saturday night, notched his 30th goal.of the year last weekend at Notre Dame. He holds second place in league goal-production, however, with 23. Colorado College's Doug Palazzari has 24. Freshman Paul-Andre Paris is the 'Wolverines' second leading goal-getter with 15, senior Mi- chel Jarry has 14, and Bucky Straub and Randy Neal have 10 each. Goaltender Karl Bagnell, who likewise will be making his last home appearance, has totaled 1159 saves so far in playing ev- ery minute of every Michigan game this season. berth 4 cers tense for cindermeet, peful for NCAA meet slots A 5 * S.., By JOE ABRAHAM a definite goal of .accumulating more and attaining a higher finish than the pre- our years (one third, two fifth, one eighth Coach Dixon Farmer leads his Wolverines Here's another Sony "sound" idea!

In Columbus, the Wolverines will show off their mile relay team of Kim Rowe (48.3), Eric Chap- Iman (48.9), Reggie Bradford (48.6), and Gerg Syphax (47.9), which broke the school record with a 3:13.7 clocking. This marks the fastest time in the Big 10 this year. Also leading the way will be Godfrey Murray, one of the nation's leading hurdlers, who has tied the collegiate record for the 10 high hurdles (8.1), and tied the former world record for 55 meter hurdles (7.1). The final field event concerning Michigan ath- letes is another pivotal point. The high jump will send Michigan's John Mann against Pat Matz- dorf, Wisconsin's world record holder, and Indi- ana's Dennis Adama. The school record holder at 7-1 last season, Mann has been consistently around 6-10. He needs to clear 6-11 to qualify for the NCAA finals and he has proven himself under pressure. Gene Brown, second in the Big 10 last year and fifth at the NCAA's, will be the lone Wolverine representative in the 60 yard dash. Brown has taken off the last, two weeks due to a leg injury, but has the ability to come back strong and place in the event which should be won by MSU's world- record holder, Herb Washington (5.8). After running his first 300 of his career in an impressive 31.3, Greg Syphax will attempt to score in the event which should belong to another pend- ing world-record holder from MSU, Marshall Dill (29.5). In the 440, Michigan will be sending Kim Rowe, who has the third fastest time (48.3), against a. fine field, which includes defending champion, Jimmie Harris. The hurdles could be Michigan's key event. It is the only race on the track which pits MSU, Wisconsin, and Michigan head-to-head with strong competitors. Murray is the strong favorite to win the 70 highs but the Wolverines key will be the performance of Mel Reeves (8.4) in the highs and lows. He has the third fastest high hurdle time and he has beaten all of the competitors ex- cept for Murray and Greg Johnson (8.3). He ranks second in- the lows (7:8) with many other runners and a strong performance could send Michigan on their way. This week marks the last attempt for runners to qualify for the NCAA Championships which will once again, be held at Cobo Hall in Detroit on March 10 and 11. With eleven Wolverines already qualified, including the mile and two mile relays, and at least three others with strong possibilities, knee, Mann could capture the title to aid the Wolverine cause. 4 'V 0 SUPER CQPEu 761-2011 665-0621 Duluth 8, Colorado 5 Today's Games Colorado at Duluth Michigan State at Notre Dame Minnesota at MICHIGAN (four pts.)
