SPORTS The Michigan Daily Tuesday, December 7, 1982 Page 11 TURNER'S 26 SPARKS 86-74 VICTORY Wolverines blast Kansas By JOHN KERR Consider' the big question answered, and consider it answered in quite a con- vincing manner - the Michigan basketball team can stay with a legitimate opponent. After playing such schools as Central Michigan, Akron and Northern Michigan, the Wolverines trounced the Kansas Jayhawks, 86-74, last night at Crisler Arena and it wasn't even a con- test. Michigan, outrebounded, outshot, and simply outplayed Kansas, taking a quick early lead and never trailing. "I THOUGHT that we played fairly well tonight," Michigan basketball coach Bill Frieder said after his team increased its record to 4-0. "It was definitely the best we've played in a game (this season). I think that getting off to a good start was very helpful." It was the Wolverine guard com- bination . of Eric Turner and Leslie Rockymore that allowed Michigan to get in front early. Turner and Rockymore were simply too quick for the Kansas guards, forcing turnovers and keeping them from running the Jayhawk offense early in the game. This, coupled with some hot Michigan shooting, helped the Wolverines jump to a 15-3 lead with just over five minutes gone in the first half. Kansas never came closer than 10 points the rest of the game. Turner led all Michigan scorers with 26 points, while Rockymore added 16. Senior forward Isaac Person also played well, scoring 17 points and grab- bing 11 rebounds. Kansas freshman forward Kerry Boagni led all scorers with 27 points. THE MOST important statistic, ac- cording to Frieder, was Michigan's 44- 33 rebounding advantage. "I think rebounding was a key," he said. "That was a crucial, crucial thing to rebound with them." After taking the quick lead, the rebounding helped the Wolverines sustain it. Michigan led by as many as 18 points in the first half, but with the score 37-19 with four minutes left the Jayhawks defense went into a press, and the Wolverines began to turn the ball over. Kansas scored 11 of the next 15 points and closed the gap to 41-30 at the half. In the second half it seemed like Kan- sas was ready to make a move, but the Wolverines wouldn't buckle and kept on increasing their lead. When Person hit both ends of a one-and-one with 13:581 left to play, Michigan led 60-39, and two minutes later, when Rockymore hit a 18-foot jumper, the Wolverines were on top, 66-44. THE JAYHAWKS then tried to make a last ditch move, but found that J'VARMY I SURPLUS 201 E. Washington at Fourth NOW OPEN SUNDAY! 11-4 OPEN M-SAT, 9-6 OPEN FRI. 9-8 L 994-3572 - - - . Michigan had an answer for everything. The two squads traded buckets on six straigt possessions to make the score 78-56 with only 7:36 remaining, and it was all over. The Jayhawks managed to turn the rest of the game into a foul-shooting contest, and narrowed the gap to 12 by the end of the game. Kansas coach Ted Owens said his team simply didn't do what was necessary to win the game. "Going into the game we said that there were four important factors," he said. "First we had to compete on the boards, and we didn't do that. Second we had to stop their break, and we didn't do that, although it wasn't much of a factor. Third we had to control their guards, and we obviously didn't do that, and fourth we had to move their defense and we didn't do that." And because Kansas couldn't accom- plish its four goals, Frieder can smile. "It was a great victory for Michigan," he said, "beating a team like Kansas with such a great tradition."

Methodist 56 Providence 65, Holy Cross 63 to capture third in Ca 1 By KATIE BLACKWELL The Michigan men's swim team opened its 1982-83 season in a very in- teresting way. The men's squad com- bined its talents with the Wolverne women tankers of place third behind a very strong Florida State and the University of Calgary in the three day Canada Cup. It also marked the debut of-new Michigan Men's coach, Jon Ur- banchek. The meet, held in the Olympium in Toronto, gave the tankers a taste of in- *ernational competition early in the season. Pleased at the chance for such competition, women's coach Stu Isaac said, "Normally we have to go halfway across the country to swim against poople like this." :"It was a worthwhile trip," stated Urbanchek, "Some freshmen had a chance to prove their abilities, and did. There was a talented class of swim- mers in the meet. Many of them are o'ssible representatives from the 1984 'lympics." The stiff competition in- Cluded 15 swimmers from the 1980 Canadian Olympic team, seven from the U.S. Olympic team and four current world-record holders. ~BOTH COACHES had anticipated Atheir team's performances. Isaac said, "t was moderately happy with our suc- cess. None of our individual perfor- mances surprised me." He cited Tami Paumier and Chris Hodson for their freestyle exhibition. Sue Cahill, defen- ding AIAW champ in the 400 IM, was faster in that eient than last year at this time. The men's most impressive victory came in the 750-cresendo relay. Mark Noetzel (50 freestyle), Kirstan Vander- sluis (100 freestyle), captain Bruce Gemmell (200 freestyle) and Benoit Clement (400 freestyle) finished first, outdistancing their opponents by five seconds. nada Cup Clement, a freshman, continued to prove himself as he finished seventh in the 200 freestyle, second in the 1500 freestyle and aided teammates'. Van- dersluis, Andy Montagur and Noetzel to fifth-place finish in the 400 freestyle relay. The men will travel to Ypsilanti, Friday, to take on the Eastern Michigan Hurons at 7:30 p.m., while th women will stay home to host Oakland Unviersity in Matt Mann Pool at 6:30 p.m. JOIN THE NEW CAREER INFORMATION ASSISTANT PROGRAM ROUP: AT CAREER PLANNING iUESDAY'S 3- PM &,4 HOUR CREDIT AVAILABLE ANT PLACEMENT A WEEK EXPERIENCE onlyy $37I9 INCLUDES: * round trip on delux "party" motorcoach * 6 nights at "The Rockies" condominiums at the base of the slopes with fireplace and a pool Limited seats * 5 day lift tickets First Come * Beer served en route First Serve CALL NOW: Jim McCullough 761-9108 Lisa 769-4645 YOU WILL HELP.-. * STUDENTS WITH SUMMER JOB SEARCH STRATEGIES * CONDUCT A WORKSHOP * GIVE INDIVIDUAL ASSISTANCE WITH COMPUTER CAREER RESOURCES PF CAREER PLANNING AND PLACEMENT (A UNIT OF STUDENT SERVICES) 3200 SAB 76C-7TY GE CONTACT PHYLLIS GREENLEY NEEDED * ENTHUSIASM * COMMITMENT * PRESENTATIO!
