Tuesday, March 13, 1973 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Page Nine Vacation Sports Basketball The highly touted Michigan basketball team ended its season in a whimper last week by dropping contests to Wisconsin and Ohio State. The once mighty Blue rolled over and died against the Badgers Monday night, when they lost by an 94-79 count. Henry Wilmore was, the high scorer with 27 points. He topped the Wolverines again Saturday with 16 markers in the anemic 102-87 loss to the Bucks. The Wolverines closed the season with a 13-11 mark overall, and a dismal 6-8 Big Ten record, good for only a sixth place tie in the standings. The game against the Buckeyes marked the end of collegiate careers for such stars as Wilmore, Ernie Johnson, and Ken Brady for Michigan and Allan Hornyak and Luke Witte for the Bucks. And yes, Johnny Orr will take the reins again next season. * * SWrestling Probably the best news of last week came from Seattle where the Wolverines grappled to a third place finish in the NCAA. Jerry Hubbard reversed his Big Ten loss to Wisconsin's Rick Lawinger by defeating the Badger for the national cham- pionship. Other Michigan wrestlers turning in stellar perform- ances were Jim Brown (118) who copped third, Bill Davids " (126) who finished fourth, Gary Ernst (Hwt.) who was also fourth, aid freshman Jeff Guyton (134) who managed to place ' fifth. The big disappointment for area fans was the failure of Wolverine captain Mitch Mendrygal to advance past the pre- liminaries, thanks to some highly questionable officiating. * * * Another bright spot in the Michigan winter sport scene this r year was the Wolverine track team. Proving that track is indeed back, the thinclads were brilliant over the vacation period, taking second in the Big Ten and eighth in the NCAA indoor championships. During the Big Ten meet at Purdue Kim Rowe set a new world record in the 440 for an 8-lap flat track. Coach Dixon Farmer's squad finished a mere 10 points behind Indiana as Steve Adams and Godfrey Murray also won individual titles, in the shot put and 70-yard high hurdles, respectively. In the NCAA meet at Cobo Hall in Detroit this past week- end, Rowe took second in the 440 and Murray third in the 60- yard high hurdles. The mile relay squad placed fifth, helping the Blue to its best showing in many years. Swimming Once again the Michigan swimming team had a great season but couldn't conquer the almighty Indiana Hoosiers. The Blue tankers finished second, far ahead of the rest of the field. Individual titles were won by Tom Szuba in the 400-yard medley, Stu Isaac in the 100-yard breaststroke, and Pat Bauer in the 200-yard breaststroke. A high NCAA finish seems likely. Hockey The Michigan hockey team closed out the season on an unusually bright note as they stunned North Dakota with a victory and a tie last weekend. With the 3-2 win and the 4-4 tie the Wolverine icers broke a losing streak that was longer than anyone cares to remember. Flaying their final games under Coach Al Renfrew, the dekers raised their final mark to 5-28-1. * * * Baseball The spring season opened for the baseball team last week as they took their annual trek to sunny Arizona. The excursion was not too successful, however, as the diamondmen dropped all six of their contests. In all fairness it should be noted that the Arizona schools have been practicing much longer and had the decided edge in playing experience Lacrosse In contrast to the baseball team, the lacrosse squad was highly successful during their stay in Miami. They won all of the games they played by decisive margins, beating Miami 18-9, Florida 11-3, and Florida International 20-5. Bill Kilkowski was one o the standouts on the trip as he accounted for 14 goals and three assists. The regular season opens this Saturday with a game against always tough Oberlin.
