Or have you fantasized about finishing the Olympic marathon in a huge stadium, with a screaming throng cheering you on? Well if you have, then the Big Ten Road Race this Saturday is for you. The 1982 version of the Michigan women's cross country team will be sponsoring and participating in the event, a 10-mile run through the streets of Ann Arbor culminating in an exciting finish on the 50-yard line of Michigan Stadium. The big bowl may not be full, but to the hard-core runner that shouldn't matter. WOLVERINE coach Francie Kraker- Goodridge is taking advantage of the run to keep her team in shape as well as getting them some public exposure. The women harriers have had only one home meet in the team's history and that was two years ago. Anyone interested in participating in the run can register before 7:30 a.m. Saturday morning at the stadium or all day today at the Briarwood Hilton. Race officials are expecting about 2,000 runners to make the 8:30 a.m. start. "The race will be good visibility for us," said Goodridge. "Most of our run- ners will be taking part." But not all of the Wolverine thinclads will be able to experience this event, as two of the key runners for the team are coming off injuries. "In the spring, I said that we could challenge for the Big Ten Championship, but now I would have to be more cautious on such a prediction," remarked the second-year coach. THECASUALTIES for the Wolverines include sophomore Judy Yuhn and senior Sue Frederick-Foster-holder of several Michigan track records-who hurt her knee while climbing mountains in Alaska over the summer while on her honeymoon. Yuhn should be ready to compete next week when the harriers open their regular season at the Eastern Michigan Invitational in Yp- silanti. Foster, however, is out in- definitely. There are some bright spots on the squad also. Returning are seniors Lisa Larsen and Melanie Weaver, both veterans of past cross country and track seasons. Larsen, a Battle Creek native, became Michigan's first cross country All-American last year when she finished 15th at the AIAW national meet in Pocatello, Idaho. "Larsen and Weaver are running bet- ter than ever this fall," said Goodridge. "Lisa ran in several road races this summer and had some of the best times in the country for 10 kilometers." DESPITE THE veterans on the Wolverine squad this year,,Michigan was lacking a fifth runner to round out the team, but may have found her in new recruit Sue Schroeder from Napolean, Ohio. "I was looking to recruit a capable fifth runner for this year, but Sue is better than I had ever6 dreamed I would get," said Goodridge. The goal for the Wolverines this year is to improve on last year's disappoin- ting fifth-place 'finish in the Big Ten. But the injuries incurred by the team will make things tough. "Both our in- jured people are running right now, but it's hard to tell when they will be in good enough condition to run com- petitively," said Goodridge. "But having such an experienced teams really helps." If you want to check on the condition of the women's cross country team yourself, just come down to Michigan Stadium tomorrow and see them in ac- tion. Larsen ... returning All-American ... and stickers open season By DOUGLAS B. LEVY The 1982 Michigan women's field hockey team is strong and experienced. Coming off an 11-8-1 season in 1981, and losing only two players to graduation, the stickers are returning seven of their top nine point-producers from last MICHIGANX A TWO COLOR RECREATION OF THE TV.

CO-CAPTAIN Heidi Ditchendorf, a junior from Ann Arbor, leads the for- ward attack. Last season, Ditchendorf scored three goals and registered six assists. Senior Sara Forrestel, the top scorer last season (nine goals and six assists), sophomore Lisa Schofield (10 and one), and senior Marty Maugh (five and three) round out the balanced attack. If Maugh-who scored 17 goals as a sophomore-can break loose again, the forward attack will be potent. Junior Key McCarthy (six and two) is one definite starter at a link position. Two freshmen-Tracy Gaskins and Jackie Rodgers-should see action at the other link position. Last season's most valuable player-junior Denise Comby-leads the halfbacks. Comby, a dominating presence who registered five assists last season, will team with senior Deanna Jones (three assists) and sophomore Alison Johnson. Sophomore Jamie Fry will open the season at sweeper. At the position of goalie, coach Zien- tek is set for the next three years. Junior co-captain Nancy Hirsch (85 saves in 99 shots, .859 percent) and sophomore Jonnie Terry (75 saves in 86 shots, .872 percent) will most likely split playing time. And both players have "improved with experience," ac- cording to Zientek. Because of a strict schedule of two-a- day practices from September 4 through September 9, the team'is in ex- cellent shape and ready to play.
