REAM c : III For May team play spells payday , A A! CLARENCE GATEMOUTH BROWN FROM Texas! I By BARB BARKER Michigan hockey player Dennis May's chances of playing professional hockey next year depend upon his team's play- if the Wolverines do well, he just might make it. "I need to have a big year this year, but more important I" need to help the team have a big year," said the senior right winger. "There are those players, such as (Ted) Speers, who can rely almost solely upon their own talents. The job for players such as myself is not how many goals I can score myself, but how many I can help the team score. If the team does well it will enhance everyone's chances, including my own." MAY, WHO HAILS from Calgary, Alberta, has a reputation among his teammates for being a hard-nosed player. Last season, May tied for fifth place on the team in overall scoring with 15 goals, as well as chalking up 21 assists. This year, May is off to a good start. In last Saturday's 5-3 win over Toronto, he netted goals in both the second and third periods. The Wolverine icers, with their 4-0 season record, have also bolted out of the gate strongly. The Wolverines currently lead the Central Collegiate Hockey Association and are ranked third nationally in the WMPL Hockey Poll. DESPITE THIS, May said he is not totally satisfied with either his performance or the team's this season. ''We all have a long way to go," explained May. "I'd like to see more goals for myself in the future. I want to, most of all, play a consistently strong hustling game. Hustling is my strong point. I think my hustling can contribute as much to the team as Speers' scoring. I want to use my forechecking and hustling ability to help set up scoring opportunities for (Don) Krussman or whoever's playing the line. I guess it's just an added bonus if I score one myself." The veteran winger feels that the Wolverines' undefeated mark means they have to work harder. "NOW THAT we're at 4-0, everyone is going to be psyched to knock us off," he said. "We've got to work even harder to stay at the top. It is never easy playing for Michigan because you're the big school, and beating us means a lot to many schools. And now it's going to be even tougher." May is intent upon helping build a strong team this year because for him, "this is the year which really counts" if he is to go on to play professional hockey-something which he says has always been his goal. "It's been my ambition all of my life to play professional hockey somewhere," he said. "If the opportunity to play ever presents itself, I'll grab it." MAY WENT ON to explain that a professional hockey career is not his sole ambition. "I came to college because I realized that hockey is not something I'll be able to do forever," he said. "I wanted to have a degree to come back to. If I don't go on to play professionally, I want to come back to Michigan and take some more geology classes, and later work back in Calgary." May said that he feels the icers' success so far this season can be attributed to coach John Giordano's disciplined coaching style. "It's work, work, work, in practice and you hate it while you're doing it," said May. "But you keep doing it because you know that it's the way to win games." And winning games may be the one thing that can keep May playing after he leaves Michigan. Don't Miss This Bondi EXOTIC DRINK SPECIAL May ... hard-nosed icer .E .
