Sunday, December 6, 1970 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Page Seven ; Sunday, December 6, 1970 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Page Sever' Cagers fall to Kent ucky Wildcats, 10 4-93 By ERIC SIEGEL Special To The Daily LEXINGTON, Ky. - Sopho- more sensation Henry Wi 1 - more lived up to all his pre - season rave notices at Memor- ial Colesium here last night, but Michigan needed about three Henry 'Wilmores as third-ranked Kentucky rolled to a 104-93 victory. The Wolverines made every mis- take in the book in the first half against the smooth cool Wildcats, and Kentucky raced to 53-39 mar- gin. The Wolverines failed to cash in on their free throws, hitting on only seven of 17 in the half; were outrebounded by 'their taller op- ponents 27-17; and took about a dozen bad shots and missed half a dozen easy ones. They also con- tinuallygave the Wildcats the open shot. Only the play of Wilmore, who collected 25 of his 40 points in the first half, enabled the Wolverines to keep the game from becoming' a complete rout. The second highest scorer in the half for the Wolverines behind Wilmore was Fife, with only 6 points. As a whole, the Wolverines hit. 16 of 35 shots for 45.7 per cent. Kentucky, meanwhile, stayed cool and worked for the open shot. The Wildcats, who placed three men in double figures in the half and haddanother with nine points, riddled the nets for 23 of 41 field goals, or 58.5 per cent. The Wild- cats took the lead with 18:38 left in the first half and never lost it after that. The Wildcat margin reached 19 with just 2:54 left in the first half, but Wilmore, who made a phe- nomenal 17 of 21 shots from the floor, six free throws and seven rebounds, hit on a pair of field goals and forward Rod Ford net- ted four points on a short jumper and a lay-up to tone down Ken- tucky's lead. "We were tight out there for[ some reason," Michigan coach Johnny Orr, who saw his team's record fall to 0-2, said after the game. "We just couldn't get go- ing." "We niissed free throws and lay-ups like crazy," Orr continued. "I don't know what the hell's going on out there when guys six- eight are missing lay-ins." The Wolverines made a come- back bid late in the second half, after the Wildcats led by as much, as 16, 89-73, with 7:52 left in the game. With Wilmore getting some help from Ford, who wound up with nine points for the evening, and Fife, who collected 20, the Wol- verines cut the Wildcats' margin to six, 89-83, with a little less than five minutes left to play. But the Wildcats, led by senior: guard Mike Casey and 7-2 sopho- more center Tom Payne, outscored the Wolverines 15-10 the rest of the way to put the game out of reach. Casey, who sat out last season with a broken leg, and Payne, the first black player at Kentucky, paced the Wildcats surge in the first half, with 12 and 10 points respectively, but they weren't the only ones doing the scoring. Larry Steele also added 10 in the half and junior guard Kent Hollen- SUNDAY SPORTS NIGHT EDITOR: JERRY CLARKE points respectively, while Payne added 17 and Hollenbeck 16 as Kentucky busted the century scoring mark for the second week in a row. The Wildcats shot a blistering 55.8 per cent to the Wolverines 48.1. The Wildcats, who outboarded the Wolverines 50-39, clearly won the battle of the big men. Mich- igan's sophomore center Ken Brady, who collected 20 points and 15 rebounds in the opener against Notre Dame, was held to nine points and four rebounds, al- though he played much of the, game in foul trouble and fouled out with four minutes left. - Brady's back-up man, sopho- more Ernie Johnson, had even more trouble, he got nine re- bounds, but managed just three points as Payne and 6-104 Mark Soderberg proved tough under- neath on defense as well as of- fense. Soderberg was the Wild- cats' fifth man in double figures with 10. Another bright spot for the{ Wolverines, beside Wilmore, was the play of 5-8 junior Dave Hart, who gave the Wolverines a lift in the second half, scoring four points and helping to key the comeback attempt. "We played a good second half," Orr said. "We were on the move and running at them, but they got hot and we fell short. We didn't give up though. We didn't quit. "I don't want the team to get down after tonight, though," Orr added. "We've lost two games in a row but they've been to two of the top five teams in the coun- try. And we're not that far away from being as good as they are." Was there any improvement over Tuesday's 94-81 loss to Notre Dame? "Well,"' said Orr, "Wilmore was super-great out there. And we played that good second half. Hopefully we'll be able to put two good halves together." The Wolverines will have that opportunity against Duke Monday night at Durham. Defers delved For the second night in a row, the Michigan icers fell to Colorado College, 6-3. In a game marred by fights, cap- tain Paul Gamsby picked up two misconducts and thus will be unavailable for the Wiscon- sin series next weekend. beck pumped in nine.

Last night, however, Wilmore showed his skills to the tune of 40 points, mostly on jump shots from the outside. Despite his super performance, the cagers still dropped a thriller to the Kentucky Wildcats, 104-93.

Last night, in Kentucky, the cagers had trouble fastbreaking against the sticky Wildcat defense as they were beaten by 11. Wilmore had 40 and Fife had 29 to pace the Wolverine attack.

A sellout crowd of 16,128 saw the Illini pull out to a 42-32 com- mand at halftime behind G r e g Jackson's 14 first half points. Oklahoma battled back to take the lead for the first time in the game at 69-68 on an outside jump shot by Scott Martin with 2:15 to play, before Illinois ragained the lead on two free throws by Rick Howat. A lane violation on sophomore Nick Weatherspoon with a minute to play allowed Oklahoma to tie the score at 72-72 on a basket by Clif- ford Ray.

Northwestern, led by Ron Sho- gar's 17 points and Mark Sibley's 13, are 0-2. * * * Oilers gush TULSA, Okla. - Dana Lewis, 6-10 center, scored four points, dominated the boards and blocked two shots in overtime as Tulsa University defeated Purdue 100-98' here yesterday. Lewis wound up with 28 points as Tulsa registered its third straight victory and left Purdue with a 1-2 record. Purdue led most of the way by controlling the backboards a n d running its offense behind the 30- point scoring of Larry Weather- ford. Tulsa came from five points down to go ahead ati88-86, but Weatherford 'scored with 20 sec- onds left to send the game into overtime.

M M6 Badgers triumph MADISON - Clarence Sherrod and Leon Howard combined for 43 points yesterday afternoon to give Wisconsin an easy 114-70 non-conference basketball victory over Michigan Tech. It was the second straight vic- astory for the Badgers in as many games and their second straight 100-point showing. The visiting Huskies were in contention early in the game, but Sherrod, a senior guard, broke a 15-15 tie with two quick baskets. Then Howard and Gary Watson, both sophomores, added fuel to the' fire and the Badgers ran away to a 56-40 halftime lead. Sherrod finished with 22 points to take game honors while How- ard added 21.

Vikings down Bears 16-13; first team to clinch title Michigan's gymnasts showed their class among the foes they'll be seeing a lot of in the coming months, as they swept to a strong finish in the Big Ten Invitational at East Lan- sing yesterday. There was no official team competition or totals, thus Mich- igan cannot be declared the out- right winner. But the Wolver- ines' dominance can be attested to by their seven finishers among the first three gymnasts in each event, compared to five for Iowa, three for Indiana, and two each for fllinois and Mich- igan State. Furthermore, the Wolverines picked up two first- place finishes among the six contests, more than any of the nine other competing teams. Two of Michigan's strong line- up of all-arounders, Ted Marti and Ray Gura, showed their Big Ten counterparts the ver- satility that will likely be the a hall mark of ivictory as far as Michigan is concerned this sea- son. Although it appeared that Marti had a slightly better total over all six events, one which included a number two finish in the free exercises. Gura lacked no ability to pick up high scores: he won the vaulting event with a 9.0 total, and placed third in the free exercises. Marti also qualified for the parallel bars during the morning preliminaries. In addition, Rick McCurdy, handicapped by a dis- located t h u m b, nevertheless competed and qualified for the vault. Undoubtedly, the best single performance for the Wolverines was turned in by co-captain Ed Howard in the high bar. How- ard racked up a superb 9.35 points out of a possible 10, an COME TO TOWN and COUNTRY RESTAURANT Fine FoodI Chops, Steaks, & Shrimp Soul Food Home Cooked Open Pit Barbeque --Open- 6 a.m. till 9 p.m.-Mon.-Thurs. 6 a.m. till 3 a.m.-Fri.-Sat. 8 a.m. till 7:30 p.m.--Sunday j 730 NORTH MAIN Delivery and Catering 769-2330 event in which Jim Scully con- tributed a third-place finish of 9.05 after having qualified in the morning. Howard's stellar performance was highlighted by a dismount. never before tried by him, a head full twist. "Howard's show- ing was particularly pleasing," said Coach Newt Loken after- ward. "Not much more could be expected of him out there."- Mike Sale finished a strong second in the rings with 9.1 and Dick Kaziny finished third in the side horse, a performance made more' impressive by the fact that his 9.2 score was beat- en by even more lofty scores of 9.45 and 9.3. Iowa's bouncers gave the Wol- verines perhaps their toughest competition, led by Barry Slot- ten, who scored a first in the free exercises and a second in the vault. Ken Barr of Illinois SCOR ES r rolled up that amazing 9.45 in the side horse. But a glance at the top fin- ishers in each event will-show Michigan's steady, all-around pre-eminance. "Our six morn- ing qualifiers made a total of 12 qualifiers, a very satisfying display," said Loken. STATISTICS HIGH BAR -1. Howad (M), 9.35; 2. Walin (Iowa), 9.1; 3.' Scully (MW), 9.05. RINGS -- I.
