Michigan from the start - his
father having played football
here years ago - he considered
Arizona State heavily for its
warm baseball weather, and
Michigan State.
"But as soon as Coach Schem-
bechler told me that I could-
play baseball here too," he said,
"I made up my mind to come to
Michigan."
Following Leach to Michi-
gan, was his high school team-
mate and good friend, Gene
Johnson,ia tight end who prac-
tices with the varsity and
rooms with the frosh signal
caller.
"At first we thought that we
wanted to go somewhere togeth-
er, but in the end we decided
separately and came anyway,
relates Leach. "Gene was seri-
ously considering Penn State be-
fore he decided on Michigan."
Johnson, partly responsible for
Leach's aerial success at South-
western, also gathered all-Amer-
ican honors in football and
helped Leach lead the Flint
team to the national Connie
Mack baseball title a year ago.
Johnson, the fastest Wolverine
tight end, is currently hampered
by a hamstring pull.
In fact, Johnson and Leach,
after signing their athletic

tenders to attend Michigan,
studied the Wolverine play-
book in Flint where they
worked all summer.
And while that paid off last
week, the young quarterback is
still making the transition to op-
tion football.
"In high school we'd throw 25
to 30 times a game and didn't
run any type of option football,"
he said. "So that's where I had
to adjust. But when you have
got guys like Bell and Lytle in
the backfield, you're going to do
alright."
Schembechler, who readily ad-
mitted that no other coach prob-
ably Would have started a fresh-
man in the season opener
against a team of Wisconsin's
caliber, is impressed with his
quarterback's competitiveness,
confidence, and desire.
"What I like about him," he
said, "is that when I take him
to the sideline and point some-
thing out, he remembers it and
then works on it."
While Schembechler will once
again pull the veil of secrecy
over the starting position that
Leach so capably filled last
week, it stands that the fresh-
man from Flint will not only
be therexception to the rule by
the time he graduates, but an
exceptional player as well..

thought a freshman could not work effectively under the
pressures of Big Ten play.

ment, at Mann Pool October
17 and 18.
"We're really excited about
this year," said Isaac. "We've
never really played inter-sec-
tionally before because nobody's
ever really taken the bull by the
horns.
"The Michigan Invitational is
going to be the biggest tourna-
ment in the midwest," statedj
the exuberant coach.
The MIWPC has 14 members,I
the most notable ones beingI
Michigan, Loyola of Chicago,
Indiana, Kentucky and Illinois.
Isaac looks for an exciting
three team race between Michi-
gan, Loyola and Indiana.
"Anything can happen on any
given day. It's a three way toss-
up," predicted Isaac.
Although Isaac concedes that
the Blue squad is "a pre-season
adjunct to the swim team," he
boasts that "most of the guys
don't regard it only as a kind
of training season before swim-
ming but as a legitimate team
sport in itself."
INDEED, IT is a tough sport
to compete in. Treading water
for an entire match would be
too much for even the best con-
ditioned athlete. Depth is a
must.
The leaders on the team this
year are seniors Jim Firestone
and Richie Yawitz. Both are
from St. Louis. Firestone is the
goalie and Isaac claims without
hesitation that he is "the best
in the conference." Firestone
competed for the USA in the

1973 Maccabean Uames in Is-
rael.
The rest of the squad is dotted
with Michigan swimmers. Joe
Bauier, a distance man for the
Blue tankers, is "a great polo
player," according to Isaac. One
of the most, interesting 'facts
about the team is that, in terms
of water polo experience, most
of the players are relative nov-
ices.
"We've got guys who came
here three years -ago to swim
who had never competed in
polo," explained Isaac. " "But
they've picked it up and have
reslly come along, guys like
Gord on Downie," alluding to the
Michigan swim star from Scot-
land.
Other players to watch on the
Blaze team are sophomore John
Daly from Puerto Rico, Larry
Schroeder, Al McClatchey, an-
other Scottish native and fresh-
man Rick Pepper from Cali-
fornia.
The conference championship
tourney will be held ataMann
Pool this November 7th and 8th.
