Saturdoyt February .5, 1977 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Page Seven SIXTH STRAIGHT LOSS Badgers slide by icers, 3-2 By BOB MILLER It was close but no cigar for the Michigan hockey team as Wisconsin handed the Wolver- ines their sixth straight defeat, 3-2, last night at Yost Ice Ar- ena. Badger Mike Meeker scored twice, including the game win- ner at 7:20 of the third period, in a, fast moving, hard-hitting game played before 4,124 appre- ciative fans. applying pressure to Michigan goalie Rick Palmer and it paid off as Meeker tied the game at 1-1 for the second time. The second period was much like the first. Both teams came out of the dressing rooms fly- ing and the action never let up. There were good scoring chanc- es for each team, but only one goal was scored in the period. Mike Evans faked Palmer out, of position, but hit the side of the net, then Palmer made two more saves on close-in shots. Baretta got into. the act with a picturesque stop of Gary Mor- rison's hard drive and foiled De- bol on a breakaway. Palmer countered with a save on Lundeen's breakaway, but the same pair was involved in the period's only goal. Taking advantage of a re- ..1 ti::K .f:t :.:::"t':}"::"t:f,:,*: t. :: :1' .'{.::G'' ':.

The Wolverines deadlocked the game only 28 seconds into the third period. Dan Lerg and Dan Hoene rac- ed up the ice on a two-on-one. Hoene's shot and Lerg's re- bound shot were both blocked by Baretta, but the Badger goal- ie couldn't cover the puck and watched helplessly as Hoene stuffed the puck into the net. Throughout the game both teams put on an exhibition of skating and hitting that pleas- ed the small but noisy crowd which included about 80 Bad- ger Backers. After the game Wisconsin coach Bob Johnson gave his ob- servations on the contest, the third straight with a one-goal margin of victory between these two teams. "We had good checking over- all. The wingers assumed their responsibilities real well. "I thought we skated quite well," said Johnson, then switch- ing topics, "Palmer made some key saves, but on some of our better opportunities' we missed' the net." Johnson also talked about an- other Wisconsin goal disallowed during the game. In the middle period Wiscon- sin's John Taft skated in front of the net, the puck hit him and went into the net. After a brief pause, the referee -waved the goal off. "He (the referee) signaled it a goal, then he changed his mind," Johnson said. "The puck hit Taft's knee and went into the net, Taft didn't direct it into the net and I think it should have, counted." Farrell talked about the game in a favorable tone. "We play- ed as well as we can play and if we keep it up, we're going to give people trouble," he said. "We got great goaltending and super penalty killing." Before last night's game, the Badgers scored on 40 per cent of their power plays, but were stymied by the Wolverines all eight times. "The big thing now psycho- logically is just to keep go- ing," Farrell said in reference to the six straight losses. "We're in good spirits. Of the six games, three have been heartbreakers."

"It was a, real pressure per- formance," said an excited Coach Newt Loken. "It's a tre- mendous tribute to the whole team." NIGEL ROTHWELL turned in a 52.7 all-around mark, including a 9.0 in the floor exercise and a 9.2 in the vault. Co-captain Chuck Ventura turned in a per- sonal high of 9.15 in the pommel horse on his way to a 47.65 all- around score. The high score of the meet was turned in by Michigan's John Carritore, who notched a 9.4 on the parallel bars. Chuck Stillerman brought the floor ex- ercise crown to the Blue gym- nasts with a 9.2 point routine. The real drama in the meet came in the final event, the high bar. Michigan was down by .15 of a point and the pressure was on Doug Zahour and Bob Creek as they started their routines. Both teams. with identical 2-1 records, needed to win this event to stay above .500.
