McGuire

cruises in

By ERNIE DUNBAR
Mike McGuire wasted no time in
re-establishing himself as Michi-
gan's number one cross, country
runner yesterday, as he cruised
through the season opening intra-
squad four mile time trial on the
University golf course.
After sitting out last season with a
case of mononucleosis, McGuire
made his return to action an impres-

sive one, handling the rolling course
in 20:25.
A 36-second gap separated
McGuire and his closest competitor,
but the 1974 All-American realized he
still has some work to do before he
rounds into top form.
"For the first time trial of the year
I felt decent" responded McGuire.
"It's going to take a while to get into

it (racing), but for the first race, I'm
satisfied."
Running at a relaxed pace through-
out the race, McGuire said it would
be a few weeks before he would be
ready to push himself.
"I'm a little hesitant about putting
the hammer down this early," said
McGuire. "But I was surprised. I
thought a few guys would beat me."
"The time isn't the main thing,
though," he said. "I just want to get
back and help this team. It was kind
of an empty feeling sitting out the
whole season last year."
Michigan coach Ron Warhurst was
equally as pleased with the return of
his top runner, since McGuire will be
counted on heavily to help the
Wolverines shoot for their fourth
straight Big Ten cross country title.
"Now that he knows he can run
that comfortable and still run fast
it'll really help his confidence,"
Warhurst said of McGuire's perform-
ance.
Times were slower this year than
in past time trials, but Warhurst
cited the team's schedule as one of
the factors in the outcome of the
race.

opener
"Since we aren't racing for three
weeks, everyone was a lot more
relaxed," said Warhurst. "Also, in
the past, we've had very young
teams and the guys tended to press
more to try and make the team.
"But since our team is made up of
mainly upperclassmen, they know
how to handle themselves in these
types of races," he added.
Senior Bob Scheper followed Mc-
Guire in 21:01 and sophomore Dan
Heikkinen was close behind in
21:01.5.
Doug Sweazey ran an impressive
race to take fourth in 21:05 after
running second for most of the race.
Bill Weidenbach lea the freshmen
across the line with his fifth place
finish of 21:21, while two-time senior
All-American Bill Donakowski got off
to his usual slow start with a sixth
place tie with freshman Gary Carter
at 21:43.
Two noticeable absences from the
finish line were junior Steve Elliott,
who developed a stomach cramp,
and junior Jack Sinclair who came
down with a stomach disorder a short
distance from the finish.

Irish battle 'Panthers

PITTSBURGH (AP) '- The wait is
over for those college football fanat-
ics who want to see what Pitt will do
for an encore to its 1976 national
championship.
Would you believe another cham-
pionship?
"IT'S PART OF our plan to win
another championship," quarter-
back Matt Cavanaugh said as the
Panthers prepared for today's na-
tionally televised ABC-TV, 3:30 p.m.,
EDT opening game against Notre
Dame.
"Of course, right now it's not as
much of a reality as it was last year."
That, however, was last year.
THAT WONDERFUL year - 12-0
record, Sugar Bowl rout, Heisman
Trophy winner Tony Dorsett, Coach
of the Year Johnny Majors, national
championship.
But Majors is gone, Dorsett is gone
along with 10 other regulars plus both
kickers and Pitt is only ranked No. 7
in The Associated Press pre-season
poll.
BUT THE PANTHERS started
out No. 9 last season and you
know where they wound up.
Notre Dame is ranked No.3 and the'
vo ters have put the Fighting Irish.

ranked Oklahoma and runner-up

Michigan.
The Irish have been embarrassed
by Pitt two years running and the
Panthers' 31-10 triumph a year ago
got them off and rolling toward their
unforgettable campaign.
THE SHOE IS NOW on the other
foot and even though Pitt is only No. 7
in the rankings, it is No. 1 to, its
opponents until proven otherwise.
"When you're No. 1, everyone
wants to knock you off before anyone
else does," says defensive tackle
Randy Holloway.
"Teams will get up to play us more
than they did in the past, and we'll
have to be ready for that."
WITH DORSETT AMONG the
missing, the most important new
face at Pitt won't be a player but
rather a new head coach.
"I don't really feel any pressure in
defending a national championship,"
says Jackie Sherrill, who was Ma~
jors' top aide for three years before
spending last season as head man at
Washington State, where he pro-
duced a 3-8 record.
"The national championship only
lasts one year. This is 1977 and a new
season.

And the high-octane combination of
Cavanaugh and split end Gordon.
"Too Much" Jones must overcome a

Ross Browner.
- BUT, WARNS Coach Dan Devine,,-
"A team . can have a group o,
veterans returning, but unless im-
provement is shown that experience
doesn'tmean a thing.
"Facin a team like Pitt in our
opening game means that we will
have to be at peak efficiency right.

Bosox bounce
Rozema, 5-1
BOSTON.(AP) - Jim Rice belted
his 36th and 37th homers last night as
the Boston Red Sox bested the
Detroit Tigers 5-1 in the first game of
a twi-night doubleheader.
Rice, the American League's home
run leader, extended his hitting'
streak to eight games as he lined a
shot into the left field screen after
Carl Yastrzemski had singled to open
the second inning.
Rookie Dave Rozema, the victimof.
both of Rice's homers, was the loser
and dropped to 15-7.
