I SPORTS Sunday, February 7, 1982 Page i7 v The Michigan Daily Speers spurs icers to OT N By BARB BARKER Just 15 seconds and one breath-taking goal. That's all it took for the Michigan hockey team to nab a 3-2 overtime vic- tory last night and sweep the weekend series with Michigan Tech at Yost Ice Arena. "WE HAD A little help from above on that final goal," said Michigan head coach John Giordano. The Wolverines took the face-off and managed to get three shots on goal in only 15 seconds. Junior, center Ted Speers scored the winning goal when he made good a rebound off of a Dave Richter shot. Richter fired off a shot from the point which hit Huskie goalie Tom Allen and flew into the air. Speers stopped the deflected puck with his glove and then placed the puck into the empty right side of the goal. The' Michigan bench'emptied and the 7,126 near capacity crowd went wild. "I was a little worried going into the overtime that we were going to a tie," said Speers. "Tech was really bringing it to us. I knew it was going to be a hard-fought battle. Hopefully now this (the sweep) will give us some confiden- ce." This is the second time this year Michigan has swept the Huskies. The first was in the season opener at Houghton where the Wolverines won, 3- 2, 3-0. Prior to this season, the Blue icers had not swept the Huskes since 1956. WOLVERINE freshman goalie Jon Elliott had an impressive game, chalking up 32 saves in regulation time. It was a Huskie third-period goal that tied the score, 2-2, and sent the game in- to overtime. Right winger Brian Clark took a Bill Perry pass and drilled it into the Wolverine net from left face off cir- cle. Prior to that goal, the Wolverines had led the game-since the first period. The Wolverines were the first to light up the scoreboard when Dennis May notched his 10th goal of the season at 3:45 of the first period. THE SENIOR right winger took a Joe Perry pass, skated it around the backside of the net, turned and flipped the puck into the right corner of the net. Despite numerous penalties, including a four-man roughing call at 13:51, the rest of the period remained scoreless. Speers-ed FIRST PERIOD Scoring: 1. M- Dennis May (Perry) 3:34.

Y§.::$}$ Pistons defused by Nets, x.125-120 By CHRIS GERBASI and PAUL HELGREN Special to the Daily PONTIAC - If the Detroit Pistons hope to make the NBA p layoffs this year, they are going to have to beat contending teams, especially at home. That's exactly what they didn't do last night, however, losing to New Jersey 125-120, at the Silverdome .,. r._ The' Nets' victory gives them a two game advantage over Detroit in the struggle for the last playoff spot in the Eastern conference. RAY WILLIAMS paced the New Jersey attack with a game-high 36 points, including a jumper with 3:14 left in the game which put the Nets ahead to stay. Darwin Cook, who was cut by the Pistons last year, chipped in with 19 poidts New Jersey. Piston coach Scotty Rebertson said the problem wasv the performance of the Detroit guards. "Defensively, guards were terrible," said Robertson. "We only had th guards to rotate, but that's no excuse."-Robertson referring to the absence of rookie guard Isiah Thomas,' did not play because of a sprained big toe. The coach ad that Thomas would probably be out for several day Thomas' injury occured in Friday night's game against Bulls in Chicago. The Pistons took control early behind John Long's shoo but could not maintain a first quarter three-point lead.

By JAMES THOMPSON Special to the Daily' YPSILANTI -The Michigan men's swimming team didn't let last week's loss to Indiana hinder its efforts yester- day, as the tankers were able to swim away from the Hurons of Eastern Michigan, 81-33, at Eastern's Warner pool. "They did a really good, positive ,job," said Michigan coach Gus Stager. Though they(Hurons) didn't swim as well as they could have, we were pretty happy." MICHIGAN WAS able to go ahead af- ter it captured first and second place finishes in the opening race - the 400- yard medley relay. The most outstan- ding win, according to Stager, came in the 1,000-yard freestyle as Kevin Williamson - set a pool record with a time of 9:21.8, while teammate Carl Bocerra came in third. The next victory came in the 50-yard freestyle, as Mark Noetzel proved that "he is really ready to do well;" accor- ding to Stager. Noetzel also took first in the 100-yard freestyle and set a pool record, as he filled in for freestyler Fernando Canales, who is out of town this weekend. Bruce Gemmell continued his fine swimming by taking first in the 400- y'ard individual medley and the 200- yard backstroke. Ron Merriott also took two first places -on the one, and three-meter boards. "THEY ALL had good steady swims," said Stager, "and I think we have a couple who may take Big Ten Championships...they deserve it." Stager relies on Tom Dudley as his best butterflier and Dudley came through, placing first in the 200-yard butterfly and swimming as a part of the winning 400-yard freestyle relay team. In the 200-yard breaststroke, it was Neal Bond and John Albanese taking first and second respectively for Michigan. Overall, the Wolyerine tankers cap- tured eleven first place finishes out of the total of thirteen events. "They're (Hurons) a better team than they were in this meet," said Stager. "They just didn't swim all that well." With the Big Ten Championships not far off, Stager feels that the only thing that may hinder Michigan's chances is its lack of depth. ° "I would really enjoy it if some of these guys win Big Ten Championships, because they're doing the job," said Stager. Next weekend the tankers travel to Columbus to meet Ohio State. Blue tracks ters shine Special to the Daily EAST LANSING- Michigan's John- ny Nielson continued to dominate his opponents in the shot put as he remained undefeated after yesterday's outing at the Michigan State Relays. Nielson had a toss of 58'71", which is less than 10 inches under the NCAA qualifying standard. SEVERAL other Michigan tracksters came close to earning invitations to the March 12-13 National Meet. Dave Lugin, who is the Big Ten outdoor champion in the high jump, won this event with a leap of 7'1%". The height was one inch under the qualifying mark, and enabled Lugin to shake off a. recent slump. Andrew Bruce, who has already ear- ned a spot in the national meet in the quarter mile, finished first in the 60- yard dash with a time of 6.26. To qualify for the NCAA's he needed a time of 6.24. The distance medley relay, which has already qualified for the national meet, proved itself once again by capturing first place with a time of 9:46.5. Brian Diemer had one of the more spec- tacular performances of the evening, when he completed his mile leg of the relay in 4:02. Gerard Donakowski won the open mile by crossing the tape in 4:09.7. The Wolverines will return to East Lansing on Friday when they compete in a dual meet against Michigan State.
