Icers edge NMU, 3-2
By JOE CHAPELLE
Special to the Daily
MARQUETTE-The Wolverine icers
scratched and clawed their way to a 3-2
}victory over Northern Michigan last
night before 3,664 fans at Lakeview Ice
Arena. The win snapped a five-game
Michigan losing streak.
One of the keys to the Wolverines was
the performance of sophomore goalie
Jon Elliott. The red-headed Spencer-
ville, Ontario native had 42 saves on
the night and helped turn back four
Wildcat power-play opportunities,
three in the final period.
MICHIGAN COACH John Giordano,
} however, was restrained in his praise of
Elliott. "That's the way he should be
playing," said Giordano. "I always ex-
pect him to play that way."
The Wildcats took up where they left
off after Friday night's win, coming up
taking a 1-0 lead after the first period.
Northern defensemen Bill Schafhauser
took a pass from teammate Tom
Strelow on the right side of the net and
poked it past Elliott.
The Wolverines, however, started to
gain momentum at the end of the
period. Michigan killed two Wildcat
power plays after Joe Milburn and Ted
Speers were whistled off the ice at 11:30
and 15:44 respectively.
MICHIGAN CAME out fighting at the
beginning of the second stanza, knot-
ting the contest early at 1-1. NMU's
freshman center Bob Curtis was tossed
into the penalty box with just :43 gone
for high-sticking. Three seconds later
Wolverine defenseman Todd Carlile
rifled the puck past Wildcat goalie Jeff
Poeschl into the right side of the net.
The Wolverines then broke out to
their first lead of the series, scoring two
goals within 20 seconds to take a 3-1
lead. At the 13:46 mark, senior Brad
Tippett poked the puck past Poeschl af-
ter taking a Speers pass. Just 20
seconds later, it was Paul Spring's turn
as he slipped the rubber disk around
Poeschl into the goal.
The Wildcats came back with a
power-play to close the gap to 3-2 at
16:21.' At 15:05, Michigan freshman
Chris Seychel was called off the ice for
slashing to set up the power-play at-
tack, and senior Eric Ponath conver-
ted, firing from the right face-off circle.
The scoring summary, however,
doesn't begin to tell the entire story. In
the second period, the Wolverines were
outshot 23-3 by the Wildcats, yet out-
scored Northern Michigan 3-1. Poeschl
ended the period with out making a
single save, allowing all three of
Michigan's shots-on-goal into the net.
The junior netminder tied an NMU
record for the fewest number of saves
in a period.
Meanwhile, Elliott blanked the Wild-
cats for the remainder of the game,
finishing with 34 saves in the final two
periods to help Michigan raise its
season record to 12-18, and 9-17 in the
Central Collegiate Hockey Association.

Powerful Hawkeye wrestlers
destroy outmanned Wolverines
By STEVE WISE
It's a good thing riding time can only
count for one point in wrestling, or
things could have been worse for the
Michigan matmen last night. As it was,
riding time (the difference of time in
control) was only one of the many ways
that second-ranked Iowa dominated in
their 44-0 thrashing of the Wolverines.
The opening match, pitting Jamie
McNaughton against Iowa's Tim Riley,
didn't last long enough to even count
riding time. Six seconds into the match
,Riley drove McNaughton to the mat.
McNaughton suffered strained neck
muscles from the takedown and was
wheeled away on a stretcher.
THEN THINGS started getting bad
for Michigan.
At 126 pounds, Iowa's Barry Davis
practiced his moves for two rounds
against Mike DerGarabedian before
pinning him 16 seconds into the third
round. Davis, last year's NCAA cham-
pion at 118 pounds, took DerGarabedian
*down six times in the first round alone,
each time letting the hapless Wolverine

DETROIT-Three second-period
goals lifted the Norris-Division-leading
Chicago Black Hawks to a 4-3 victory
over the Detroit Red Wings last night at
Joe Louis Arena.
The Wings played a strong first
period and grabbed the lead at 14:51 on
a Reggie Leach slapshot from ten feet
out. The Hawks, however, evened
things up four minutes into the second
period on a goal by Dave Feamster.
Chicago then took, the lead five
minutes later on a wrist shot by Al
Secord over fallen Detroit goalie Gilles
Gilbert. The killer came with five
seconds left to play in the second period
when Bob Murray took the puck off a
face off and put it into the top corner of
the goal.
Rich Preston put the game out of
Detroit's reach two minutes into the
final period with the Black Hawk's final
goal of the night. Wing's Reggie Leach
and Willie Huber tightened the gap with
goals in the final two minutes, but were
unable to salvage the game.

escape only to be taken down again.
Tim Fagan gave the fairly large and
vocal Michigan-partisan crowd a few
moments of hope in his 4-3 defeat at the
hands of defending national 158-pound
champion Jim Zalesky. Although
Fagan never led, he was the agressor
throughout the first round, which ended
3-2 in Zalesky's favor. In the second,
the only scoring was an escape by
Fagan, good for one point and a tie
match. A f'ter an escape by Zalesky,
Fagan tried repeatedly, but unsu~c-
cessfully, to get the takedown that
would have won the match.
"FAGAN wrestled a hell of a match,"
said head coach Dale Bahr.
The meet ended as it began with Iowa
heavyweight Lou Banach handing Rob
Rechsteiner his second loss of the
weekend. Banach, NCAA champion
two years ago, piled up 13 takedowns
and a 3:42 riding time advantage on the
way to a 31-12 superior decision.
"We're just not in the same class
they're in," said Bahr. "They're just a
dominating team."
