'M' baismen sweep
WMU
By JOHN KERR
Special to the Daily
KALAMAZOO-The Michigan Wolverines.avenged
a pair of one-run defeats as they combined fine pit-
ching and powerful hitting to sweep a doubleheader
rom the Western Michigan Broncos here yesterday.
he Wolverines took the opener 6-2 and rallied for an
8-2 victory in the nightcap.
The Broncos had defeated Michigan 4-3 and 6-5
earlier last week. With the doubleheader sweep,
Michigan now stands at 18-11. Western dropped to 18-
10,
"WE HAD GOOD hitting, pitching and good defen-
se," said Wolverine Coach Bud Middaugh, "and when
you have those three you're going to win. We started
playing well against Ohio State last weekend and put
it all together today," he said.
Michigan centerfielder Greg Schulte led the
Wolverines' offensive show by going 3-4 with a
double, a triple and a home run, scoring three runs
and knocking in four more iri the twinbill, Catcher
John Young added some fireworks of his own as he
belted a grand slam in the second game.
In the opening frame, Michigan received a solid
pitching performance from freshman Bill Shuta (3-
1). Shuta went the distance, giving up seven -hits and
striking out two.
THE WOLVERINES wasted no time getting on the
scoreboard as Shulte took the second pitch of the first
game and sent it up the alley in right center for a
triple. Tony Evans then hit a sacrifice fly to score
Schulte. Michigan held a 2-0 lead after three innings
when Western closed the gap to 2-1 when Bronco pit-
cher Jim Schneider homered off Shuta.
Michigan, however, answered the Broncos by
tallying three runs in its half of the fourth. With the
bases loaded, Schulte drilled a double to right center
clearing the bases and making the score 5-1. Schulte
tried to stretch the hit to a triple but was thrown out
at third.
Western added its final run in the bottom of the
fourth and Michigan closed out the scoring with a run
in the top of the fifth.
SCHULTE, CHRIS Sabo, and Rich Bair each had
two hits in the opener for Michigan. Schulte also
collected three RBIs.
In the second contest, Western jumped out to a
quick 2-0 lead on the Wolverines in the first inning
when Bronco first baseman Mark Gerard sent one of
Michigan starter Jim Bartlett's pitches over the
rightfield fence for a two-run homer.
Unfortunately for the Broncos, that was all the
scoring they could muster off three Wolverines pit-
chers. Bartlett was relieved after two innings by
Steve Ontiveros (2-2) who got the victory. Ontiveros
came out after the fifth and Scott Elam finished out
the ballgame with two solid innings of work.
THE WOLVERINES broke the ballgame open in
the bottom of the third when they scored five runs off
Western reliever Terry Schalk. The clincher came
with bases loaded and two outs when Young drilled a
Schalk pitch over the 375-foot mark into right field for
a grand slam.
Michigan added two more runs in the fourth on a
Schulte home run and RBI single by Sabo, and one
more in the fifth when Young scored from third while
Jeff Jacobson was hitting into a double play.

By SARAH SHERBER
Bill Donakowski has been on the run
ever since he graduated from Michigan
in 1978. As a matter of fact, he's been
6 running around the world.
The former Wolverine trackster has
made a spot for himself in the running
world. In 1979, as a member of they
United States indoor track team,
Donakowski competed in the dual track
meet at Houston where the U.S.
defeated Russia.
THE SAME YEAR he qualified as a
member of the United States cross
country team and flew to Ireland to
compete in the World Championship.
The Americans managed to finish
seventh.
The trackster did qualify for the 1980
Olympic trials, however he failed to
advance past his preliminary heat.
;Donakowski has just recently retur-
ned from Spain where the national
team competed in the World Cham-
pionships. The United States placed
second out of the 35 teams competing,
while the Michigan alum finished the
meet at 18.
DONAKOWSKI'S FUTURE is
somewhat uncertain at this point in
time. After graduating from Michigan,
the Dearborn Heights native started
working with an architectural firm. But
according to his former cross country
coach Ron Warhurst, he wasn't very
happy with his career and has since
returned to Michigan and will receive a
second degree in engineering.
The distance runner is now planning
to move to Long Beach, California and
The letterman in both track and cross
country also claimed three Big Ten
titles. In 1977, he was the cross country
champion, then in 1978 he captured the
5,000 meter and 10,000 meter titles.
DESPITE ALL, HIS records and
titles, Donakowski claims that his most
memorable occasion was "being
chosen captain of the team by the fellow
members.
"Being on a team that won the Big
Ten championship, getting a bunch of
people with a common goal and seeing

is contemplating retiring for a year.
Donakowski is also unsure about his
future goals. Though the 1984 Olympics
are on the horizon he admits that, "It's
a long haul - there was a lot of
frustration at the Olympic trials or
whatever they were, I'm not sure it
would be worth it when a government;
can just do what it did (withdrawing
from the Olympics)."
THOUGH WHAT LIES ahead of him
is uncertain, Donakowski has nothing
but the fondest memories of the past.
While on the track team, he managed
to claim two outdoor school records
which he still holds. His time of 13.39.3
in the 5,000 meter run and 28:25.8 for the
10,000 meter have yet to be touched by
any other Wolverine since.
The shutout was Rozema's first of the
season in as many outings and gave the
Tigers their second consecutive win
over the defending American League
champions.
RICK PETERS LED off the game
with a double and eventually scored on
Steve Kemp's RBI single to give the
Tigers a 1-0 lead.
Detroit added two more runs in the
second when Al Cowens tripled home
John Wockenfuss and Peters knocked
in Cowens with an RBI single.
Kemp's second RBI came in the
eighth when he singled home Lou'
Whitaker from second.
Larry Gura started and took the loss
for the Royals. His record dropped to 0-
2 on the season. Tiger Lance Parrish
was ejected from the game in the bot-
tom of the ninth when he argued a call
with home plate umpire Mike Reilly.

ZYJEWSKI STAFF STOPPER:
Pitchig keys women
By JIM DWORMAN
Much like a goalie in hockey, a softball pitcher on a hot streak can often carry a
team through a tournament,
With both the Big Ten and state tourneys rapidly approaching, the success of the
Michigan softball team could rest in the hands of its pitching staff.
Going into this weekend's Big Ten championships in Evanston, pitchers Laura
Reed, Sandy Taylor and Julie Zyjewski have combined for an earned run average
of only 1.50 runs per game. And that's less than one-third of the 4.72 figure com-
piled by their opponents.
OF THE THREE hurlers, it will probably be Zyjewski (5-2) who will be given the
0starting assignment in the tournament opener against Ohio State because she is,
according to coach Bob DeCarolis, the hot pitcher.
"Julie pitched really well last weekend (she gave up only one run in 13 innings
pitched) and we'll open with her this weekend," said DeCarolis. "If she looks good
and feels strong we'll come back with her in the second game."
Possessing a sixty miles-per-hour fastball, Zyjewski has shown tremendous im-
provement over last year, especially in her control. Harder concentration and ad-
ded confidence have aided Zyjewski in lowering her walks to strikeouts ratio from
.85 last year to .61 in 1981.
DECAROLIS DESCRIBES her improvement as a maturation process. "When
I she was a freshman, she was a thrower-all fastballs. Now she sets people up for
her fastall with her rise and curve.
She's becoming a pitcher."
If Zyjewski cannot do the job
against the Bucks, then DeCarolis
will look to Reed to come out of the
bullpen because "she can throw
strikes."
Reed, a junior microbiology
major, has rebounded from two in-
jury-plagued seasons to become the
leader of the staff. She has pitched
more innings (50.1), thrown more
complete games (7), struck out
more batters (31) and given up
fewer walks (11) than either
Zyjewski or Taylor. Reed (4-3) also k*
possesses the lowest ERA (1.25) of
theythree.
ROUNDING OUT the staff is
Taylor, a sophomore who splits time
between the mound and second base. Zyjewsk
She has also shown considerable im- ... staff ace
pr:vement over last year, dropping her ERA from 2.06 to 1.47.
Donakowski
... takes time off
it through," according to Donakowski,
was his most cherished remembrance
of Michigan track.
Donakowski has not totally alienated
himself from University athletics.
While remaining in Ann Arbor,
Warhurst has still been acting as his
trainer. Another way he is able to keep
tabs on the track team is through his
younger brother, Gerald, who is
proving to be as big of an asset to the
Wolverines as his older brother.
The senior Donakowski has
discovered that his Wolverine
background will follow him
everywhere. While running in Houston,
cries of "Go Blue" were heard from the
stands. "I was just really surprised - I
was amazed," said Donakowski.
