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. By CINDY GATZIOLIS 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.
