Norwich, a junior, will be joined by Taft on defense and between the two of them, they should cause havoc for op- posing offenses. Backing them up will be a starter from last year, junior Norm McIntosh, and another man who saw plenty of action, Ian Perrin, also a junior. Should the Wisconsin defense+ slip, however, they have plenty 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. Other offensive regulars in- clude brothers Dave and Tom Lundeen.
