WEEKEND ROAD TRIP AHEAD
Blue nine is startled
in dismal double loss
Blue n etters steam roll Irish
By MB DILLON
The defending Big Ten Michigan Wolverines
dropped a disappointing doubleheader to the
8-8 Western Michigan Broncos in Kalamazoo
yesterday, 7-4 and 6-2, during an afternoon
marked by poor Michigan pitching and two
four-run innings, one in each game, by
Western.
Craig McGinnis (1-3) dropped the opener
while Bill Sennett (1-1) suffered defeat in
the finale.
Michigan hit its way to a strong start in
the first game and led 3-0 in the second in-
ning but saw their adge erased as Western
racked up four runs in one inning. Dan Dami-
ani overran a fly ball to deep center field as
the Bronco burst began, allowing WMU's Dan
La Noue to advance to third. Scot Carnes
then singled him in, and McGinnis gave up
a walk, single and a two run double that put
Western on top.
A pop-up off the glove of Dick Walterhouse
put a man on second base in the fifth inning
and 700 fans saw the day's only home run
on the next pitch as LaNoue smacked one
over the 375 ft. sign to make it 6-3.
McGinnis went the distance but tired in
the sixth, giving up three walks and a sacri-
fice fly that gave Western its seventh run.
The Wolverines didn't lose for lack of op-.
portunity. They put their first five batters
on base, and had a chance to break the game
wide open.
With no one out Bob ,Wasilewski drove in
two runs with a bases loaded single, but
Michigan couldn't get anyone else in as
Western made a pitching change and Bronco
defensive back Mark Knust filled in for Dave
Cassetto.
Dick Walterhouse collected two RBI's on
grounders to second in the second and sixth
innings (which capped Michigan's scoring)
and McGinnis struck out two. Grenkoski and
Mahan, playing with an injured finger, col-
lected three hits in four at bats. The Wol-
verines stranded 11 batters on nine hits,
Coach Moby Bennedict was disheartened
with his pitching prospect, Bill Stennet, in
the nightcap. The southpaw allowed four
runs while facing only six batters before Tom
Owens steppd in to relieve.
"I was disappointed in Stennet," said Bene-
dict. "He has a major league curve ball and
a rising fast ball, but he can't seem to get
anybody out."
If there was one bright spot for the day,
Owens gets the credit. The freshman mound-
er allowed only two hits and two runs in a
performance that Benedict said, "was pretty
encouraging. Owens did a good job, and I'm
real pleased with him."
The second game wove a pattern similar
to the first as a walk, two stolen bases and
an error by Mahan tallied Western's fifth
run. Their sixth came in the fifth inning
when Carnes singled and came home on an
error by Walterhouse.
Michigan scoring began in the third when
Mike Parker walked, stole second and came
in on a single by Jim Berra. The scoring
ended in the sixth with back to back walks
to Mahan and Parker and a single by Dami-
ani that sent Mahan Hiome.
A successful season depends on Michigan's
pitching, and this weekend should show a
lot, as the Wolverines travel to Iowa and
Minnesota for doubleheaders on Friday and
Saturday. Benedict will put his best foot
forward with Weber and Sorenson but will
again stand on shaky ground as his number
three and four pitchers show their stuff.

The luck of the Irish was not
enough yesterday afternoon asI
the Michigan men's tennis team
defeated Notre Dame 8-1, at the
varsity courts.
Coach Brian Eisner was
pleased with the team's per-
formance.
"They played much better1
today than they did against
Michigan S t a t e," remarked
the coach after the meet. It
was difficult for the team to
get up psychologically for its
games with Michigan State,
but they showed no such dif-
ficulty in the Notre Dame
meet."
The coach also found the tem-
perature agreeable.
"The weather had a lot to do.
with our performance," added
Eisner whose team has been
outside for only one short week.
Notre Dame, who entered the
meet with an 8-4 record, has had
even less outdoor playing time.
Michigan started off rather
slowly in the opening set of
the first doubles match which
featured Captain Eric Friedler
and freshman Jeff Etterbeek
against Randy Stehlik and
Mike O'Donnell.
Both teams were having dif-
ficulty returning serves, but for-
tunately, the problem plagued
Notre Dame much longer. With
Monday's less than spectacular
performance so fresh in their
minds, Friedler and Etterbeek
started to come back and take
advantage of Notre Dame's poor
returns. The first set went to the
tiebreaker situation with Mich-
igan coming out on top, 7-6.
The new-found strength per-
sisted as the top pair put away
the second match, 6-2, when
Etterbeek caught the corner
following a tough volley.
The Wolverines gained a
split in the two other doubles
sets. The team of Jim Holman
and Ollie Owens took no time
in their 6-1, 6-2 victory. In the
second doubles, which was last
to finish, Brad Holland and
Buddy Gallagher succumbed
to the Irish 6-2, 7-5.
First singles pitted Friedler
against Stehlik in a much closer
competition than the winning;
scores of 6-3, 6-4 indicate.
Stehlik won the first, game,
but with speed and power,
Friedler came back to win the
next five games. However it
took three more for him to get
that elusive number six.
The second set was even more
tense than a couple of deuce
games. Stehlik was just missing
with several of his shots, and
Friedler appeared to be tiring.
The frisky captain, who seems
to thrive in pressure situations,
reached back and found just
enough to nip his quality op-
ponent.
Etterbeek encountered some
BULLETS STIFLE CAVALIERS
Pistons nipped by
minor setbacks at the onset
of his number two singles
match with Brian Hainline,
but it didn't take long for
him to overcome them. Using
the two-handed backhand ef-
fectively, he put away the
set 6-3.
Even more overpowering in
the second set, Etterbeek lost
the chance at a shutout in the
sixth game. He still came out
with an impressive 6-1 victory.
The third and fourth singles
matches showed Jim Holman
winning 6-4, 6-4 and Brad Hol-
land triumphing 6-4, 6-0. Bud-
dy Gallagher and Ollie Owens
winning the fifth and sixth sin-
gles by identical scores of
6-2, 6-1. The ankle injury that
has been bothering Owens of
late, seemed nonexistent In
yesterday's match.
Michigan must now see if they
can continue their winning
ways on the road. The first op-
ponent is Northwestern on Fri-
day.
