SPORTS Wednesday, January 21, 1981 P ge 10 The Michigan Daily, - Wonu By DAN NEWMAN Diane Dietz pumped in a game-high 20 points to spark Michigan's women's basketball team to a thrilling 63-61 vic- tory over the Oakland Pioneers last night at Crisler Arena. -'Dietz did a really super job t;fight," said coach Gloria Soluk, who added that Tammie Sanders also played a vital role in the Wolverines' at- tack by contributing eight points and eight rebounds off the bench. DIETZ TOSSES IN 20 en cagers tip Oakland 'M' Olympian Bruce: a dashing success V i THE LEAD see-sawed throughout the second half, changing hands ten times. Dietz, who scored ten points in each period, hit a 15-foot jumper with 4:00 remaining to put the Wolverines ahead, 57-56. After the Pioneers' Linda Krawford, who added 20 points and nine rebounds in the losing cause, tied the score at 59-59, Michigan's Sanders responded by sinking a jumper that put the Wolverines ahead for good. Diane Hatch hit two free throws with nine seconds remaining to secure the win. "We didn't play as well as we should have," said Soluk. "I think we were a little flat because we were coming off the loss to Detroit." In the sloppily-played first half that saw the two teams turn the ball over a total of 26 times, the Pioneers jumped in front by as many as seven points before settling for a 34-31 halftime lead.

MICHIGAN'S 6-5 junior:, Patrice Donovan, picked up her third foul later in the period, thus enabling Oakland to dominate the boards and the tempo of the game. Teresa Vondraselk grabbed eight rebounds, and Krawford added five in those first 20 minutes. But the Wolverines bounced back quickly in the second half, jumping out to a 35-34 lead. Sanders snatched five second-half rebounds as the Wolverines outboarded the Pioneers, 20-15, in the second stanza. Michigan's ball-hawking defense was tenacious throughout the contest, for- cing Oakland to commit 23 turnovers while hitting on only 41 percent of its floor shots. "WE'RE NOT afraid of going to a man-to-man defense any more," com- mented Soluk, who was pleased with her team's defensive effort. Gnatkowski was the only other Wolverine in double figures, con- tributing eleven points. the team only shot 44 percent, connecting on 26 of 59 from the floor. The victory upped Michigan's overall record to 6-9 and the Wolverines next meet conference foe Indiana at home on Friday. "WE'RE HOPING to get a cohesive lineup in there," said Soluk. "We've been starting the same four or five players the last few games." Soluk can't help but look forward to the Big Ten Tournament February 13- 14 at Northwestern. "The two toughest teams are Minnesota and North- western," said Soluk Oakland raided By JOE CHAPELLE "When you walk into the stadium and see the people, you realize that this is the big time. A type of spirit fills you. You run and do your best." This is how Michigan sprinter Andrew Bruce describes the emotional charge he felt prior to the semifinals of the 200-meter dash at the 1980 Moscow Olympic Games. Bruce, who represented Trinidad at the Olympics, earned his spot in the semifinals with a time of 20.94. "I think that reaching the semifinals in the Olym- pies has been the highlight of my career so far," said Bruce on Monday. Wolverine track coach Jack Harvey describes Bruce as "a runner of great range who can run well in anything from the 60-yard dash to the quarter mile. Bruce is probably the finest runner that we have ever had at Michigan." Bruce certainly lives up to his coach's billing. Besides his outstanding perfor-. mance in Moscow, Bruce placed second last year in the Central Collegiate Con- ference meet in the 440-yard run and came in third in the Big Ten Outdoor Chary- pionships as well, with a time of 20.98 in the 200-meter event. He also took second in6 the 60-yard dash with a time of 30.67 in the 1980 Big Ten Indoor Championships. Bruce spent last summer running in various competitions throughout Europe before the Olympics. "This could be his best year ever at Michigan due to the fact that he was exposed to international competition," said Harvey. "He has more confidence now than he did last year. , : T T 1 if T UIadrs nL'a asss)1 s sI 5 I parUTIL company of the United Telephone Systems, the second largest independent telephone systems in the nation.

Room 3200, SAB The junior speedster is looking forward to Olympic competition again in "I would really like to reach the Los Angeles Olympics," said Bruce. "I think that in '84 1 should be contending for a medal. I would be disappointed if I weren't." However, Bruce feels that run- .:. . ners in the United States face two big disadvantages in comparison with athletes of other nations. First, track meets simply do not draw the large numbers of fans in the United States that they do in other parts of the world. Accor- ding to Bruce, fan support is im- portant to a runner and can affect his performance. "When I star- ted running track in 1976 in Trinidad, I broke a couple of records and ran in front of large crowds ofenthusiastic fans, he said. "I was a little disappointed when I started running here because of the small amount of Bruce fans. It's a problem. I have to .. points to '84 concentrate one hundred percent to do well here." 1984. a. OAKLAND Minfg/a ft/a Reb. Krawford ..............40 8/19 4/5 9 A Vondrasels........... Donner .............

"It is hard to find a job which will allow you the time needed for training," he said. He also pointed out that most runners competing in the United States are in school, where they are supported by' scholarships or grants. Bruce, an LSA student, is' concentrating in radio and television com-~ munications. He planson attending graduate school upon finishing his -u dergraduate work. He also has an intense interest in music. "I would like to get in- volved with the mixing of popular music from different bands. Anything that pays well," he added jokingly.
