Although the Badgers finished
at the bottom last year, they
improved throughout the season
and were playing .500 hockey by
season's end, due largely to the1

more protection in goalie Mike
Dibble, a junior who has-started
since he arrived in Madison.
As a freshman, Dibble was the
third leading goalie in the
league, but had his troubles last
season along with the rest of
the team.
Still, coach Johnson considers
him "one-of the best goalies in
the league."
OFFENSIVELY as well, the
Badgers have a lot of experi-
ence coming back. Their first
line will be anchored by Alley
and Mike Eaves, last year's
second leading scorer.
Eaves, an Ontario native,
plays "the center position very
well and has come a long way
since last season," according
to assistant coach Bill Rothwell,
last year's acting head coach.
Senior Dave Herbst heads the
second line at center, and like
Eaves, saw plenty of action
last year.
