F U T OULD T O Michigan hit only one basket in FOURTH ROUND TKO: Bucked again MICIGAFrazier outclasses, Wilmore9-19 81 r tot By RANDY PHILLIPS Everything was going in for De- troit in the first half as the Titans built up a 12 point lead, but Cam- py Russell led a second half 54 point scoring assault to lead the Wolverine Frosh to a 94-80 victoryE yesterday at Crisler Arena. Russell poured in 38 points, add- ing nine rebounds, and an aggres- sive Wolverine defense held the hot shooting Titans to 31 points in the second period. A team couldn't shoot much bet- ter than Detroit did in the first 20 minutes of play as the Titans scorched the hoop for 22 of 30 shots from the floor for a 49-40 half - time lead. C e n t e r Terry Thomas and forward Jerry Guin- ane were doing most of the damage as they collected 16 points each., Nearly all of the Titan shots were from about 10-15 feet out and many were wide open shots as the T i t a n s moved the ball' around smoothly and hit the open man. Michigan tried the zone press' periodically in the first half and even went into a zone for a while to try and slow down Detroit's momentum. But n e i t h e r tactic worked until the last minute of the half when the 'press forced Detroit into two straight turnovers and the Titan's nine point lead was diminished to five. But the Ti- s E Iff 1 {4 I i SUNDAY SPORTS Night Editors : The Miami boys, -Mike and Randy-Go Dolphins! -Daily-Mort Noveck MICHIGAN'S HENRY WILMORE (25).gets inside the Buckeye's center Luke Witte (34) for an easy lay-up. Wilmore scored 26 points against OSU but it wasn't enough as he received little help from his teammates in Michigan's 84-73 loss. MARRED BY PENAL T -2 IES tans scored two quick buckets and the Wolverines' Joe Johnson's driving lay-up at the buzzer went in and out of the hoop to preserve Detroit's nine point margin at half. Fired up, Micchigan came out in the second half and blitzed De- troit with an aggressive defense and a much improved zone press. The press forced the Titans into three straight turnovers near the start of the half. Michigan con- verted two of them into scores and ran off an 11-3 margin in the first four minutes of the half to pull within one at 52-51. Russell had 5 of the 11 and also blocked a shot by Thomas in the surge. Micchigan Coach Dick Honig called the press the "key to all of our games." He added: "We use it whenever we're slow: in getting going. We're not a quick starting team." According to Honig, the press did not work when first used. "In the first half it (press) didn't bother them; we weren't ag- gressive enough." Campy Russell played Thomas tough throughout the second half, and shut the 6-7 center out after his torrid shooting performance in the first half. With 'just under 15 minutes left to play Russell forced Thomas into his fourth personal foul. After Thomas' fourth foul, the usually low scoring forward John Ashworth got into the scoring act. Ashworth put in two shots and put Michigan ahead for the first time since. the first minute of play, 55=54. Detroit gained the lead briefly, but Russell knotted the score at 57-all and then Michigan blew the game wide open. Michigan reeled off ten straight points to lead 67- 57 with 9:35 left and then moved out to their biggest lead of the day, 74-60. When asked about Russell's de- fensive masterpiece on Thomas, Honig replied: "Campy wanted to -accept the challenge and he s t o p p e d him (Thomas)." Russell said It was Johnson who gave him the idea to cover Thom- as, but it was the fine outside shooting day that Campy was thinking about. Russell shot 15 of 28 from the field. "This is the first time I've had a good shooting day in a long time." lcers drop By JOEL GREER standing Special To The Daily Ed Hay; DENVER-"We're not quite that the deci good, and Michigan's not really' ines we that bad," declared Denver coach occasion Murray Armstrong after Friday's Randy 10-1 Pioneer victory.

Referee Herman Dutrieux stopped the fight at 1:47 of the fourth round. Frazier, fighting for the first time since he outpointed Muhammad All last March 8, sim- ply had too much power for Daniels, loser of three of his 10 fights last year.' The champion dropped Daniels for the fourth time at about the minute mark of the fourth round with a left hook high on the head, fol- lowed by a short right. Daniels got up at a nine count and Frazier moved in and drove him about the ring. A barrage of punches dropped Daniels again and he almost fell through the ropes. The referee then stopped the fight. There never really was any doubt to the out- come as the unbeaten Frazier, who weighed the heaviest of his career at 215z to 191% for Daniels, put on tremendous pressure right from the opening bell. Frazier dropped Daniels with a left hook in the first round and the count continued after the bell. The Dallas fighter, who needs six hours of credit for his college degree, got up at eight. The referee, not hearing the bell, waved the fighters into action but ringsiders called his attention to the fact the round was over. Daniels stayed on his feet through the second round and drew cheers from a crowd of. about 9,000 at Rivergate Auditorium. The fightalso was the first heavyweight title bout on home television since Ali knocked out Zora Folley March 22, 1967. Frazier really put on the pressure as the third round opened but Daniels fought back at the two slugged away in Daniels' corner. Daniels seemed to be tiring as Frazier kept close to him. The 28-year-old Frazier put Daniels on the deck twice more in the third round, the first time with a right . following a hook and the second time with a hook. Daniels got up at nine both times. the first period. Mike Buxniuk in- tercepted a Michigan pass at the Pioneer blue line and sent Ed Hays and Tom Puluso into the Michigan zone two on one. Using~ Puluso as a decoy, Hays found the upper left hand corner to beat Michigan goalie Karl Bagnell. The game turned into a rough and tumble affair as both teams were intent to take pot shots at each other. Bob Falconer took one of the worst chucks of the year as Tom Puluso caught the Forrest, Ontaria sophomore with a cross check under the chin. Falconer was helped from the ice but came back to cause a little trouble of his own. On his next shift, Falconer dumped Vic Venasky with a clean check, but the All American re- taliated with a vicious elbow. This time the officials saw the incident and Venasky went to the penalty box. It didn't take long for the Wol- verines to capitalize on the power play, as they displayed their in- itial offense of the series. Punch Cartier fired from the point and Paul Andre Paris was Ihere to send in the rebound. Michigan goalie Karl Bagnell took a shot on the mask at the peanuts, t around: nI Luxembourg, d.
