SPOR TS OF THE DAILY
'M' tankers flounder at
By KATIE BLACKWELL
Special to the Daily
BLOOMINGTON - Indiana's famed
head swim coach James "Duck" Con-
ilman once said of the new multi-
million dollar IU Natitorium, where the
tig Ten swimming championships are
being held this year, "There is no way a
swimmer can fail to be his best under
the conditions it provides."
Unfortunately, the Michigan men's
jwim team was not listening.
.The pressures of the meet proved to
be unsettling for the young Wolverine
aquad. After five events the Wolverines
Ore in a disappointing fourth place.
"WE HIT the low point here," said
Michigan head coach Jon Urbanchek.
"If there are such things as breaks we
lure didn't get them tonight."
The first low point for Michigan came
In the 50-yard freestyle preliminaries:
None of the Wolverine sprinters were
ble to qualify for the championship
final.
Freshman Benoit Clement failed to
perform up to his potential in the 500-
ard freestyle because of an illness.
Nevertheless, he managed to place
seventh with a time of 4:28.89.
JUST AS things were looking grim for
Michigan, three Wolverines swimmers,
Pruce Gemmell, Antonio Cerezo, and
Fl
Lance Schroder qualified for the finals
in the 200-yard individual medley.
In the championship final, Gemmell
had Michigan fans holding their breath.
The senior captain was trailing in four-
th place throughout most of the race,
but he came on in the last two laps
(freestyle) to capture a second place
and a trip to the NCAA meet with a
qualifying time of 1:59.9.
"I was swimming to win, but it just
wasn't enough," said Gemmell.
Schroder and Cerazo finished fifth and
sixth, respectively.
THE ONE meter diving event was a
pleasant surprise for Kent Ferguson,
who placed second with a score of
500.82.
"Kent did a really, really good job,"
said diving coach Dick Kimball. "So did
Bruce (Kimball), but his degree of dif-
ficulty wasn't as high."
With two more days of events to come
the Wolverines will be fighting for third
place, as it appears that Iowa and In-
diana are in a race for the top spot.
Women cagers face
Wisconsin
When Wisconsin arrives in Crisler
Arena tonight expecting an easy win
over the Wolverine women cagers, it
may be in for a little surprise.
Behind the play of Amy Rembisz, the
hoopsters showed tremendous im-
provement last weekend and she could
very well make the difference this time
around as well. That, at least, is what
coach Gloria Soluk contends.
"Amy is much better. She kept us in
both games last weekend and showed
our kids they could play with anybody
in the conference, including the
leaders. That gave us confidence."
NOW THAT they have confidence,
the Wolverines have to deal with the
Badgers' size and speed. "They are big
and very quick," agrees Soluk, "we
have to block them out and get the
boards."
In other words, Michigan's forwards
Wendy Bradetich and Peg Harte have
to do a stronger rebounding job than
they have throughout most of the
season. The pair are only averaging
12.1 caroms per game, a figure needing
much improvement for the Blue to be
victorious.
The last thing they need to win is a
good shooting night. The backcourt
combo of Orethia Lilly and Lori
Gnatkowski has to get the ball to the
resurgent Harte who seems to have
rediscovered her shooting touch.
As it has been all season, the cagers
have to rebound and score better than
usual in order to win. JEFF FAYE
Neters trounce San Diego
Special to the Daily
CORPUS CHRISTI, Tx - Led by top
seeds Mark Mees and Ross Laser, the
Michigan men's tennis team easily
defeated San Diego, 6-3, yesterday in
the Corpus Christi Team Tournament
consolation match.
All-American candidate Mees was
victorious over Tie Feredinabfen 6-3, 6-
2, while Laser defeated Brian Turney in
three sets 6-1, 4-6, 6-3. The win raises
the netters' record to 3-6.

Indiana 64, Purdue 41
BLOOMINGTON (AP) - Randy Wit-

Jig Tens
diana held Purdue scoreless during a
seven minute stretch in the second half
last night as the Hoosiers defeated the
20th-ranked Boilermakers 64-41 in a Big
Ten Conference basketball game.
The victory snapped a two-game losing
streak for Indiana. The Hoosiers scored
12 of the game's first 14 points and
never looked back in an emotional
game which saw injured forward Ted
Kitchel make an appearance.
DOCTORS removed a ruptured disc
from Kitchel's back in a four-hour
surgery Monday night. He sat in street
clothes on the bench last night af-
ter receiving a two-minute standing
ovation from the crowd of 17,312.
Center Uwe Blab added 12 points for
the Hoosiers, all in the first half, and
guard Jim Thomas contributed 10.
The Hoosiers' defense was also a big
part of the win, holding Purdue's
leading scorer Russell Cross to just six
points.

M' Wisconsin to miss NIT's ..
...they're better of fat homet.."
T HE WORDS ROLLED from the mouth of Wisconsin basketball coaoa
Steve Yoder, but you easily could have imagined Michigan's B
Frieder saying much the same.
"There are going to be 80 teams going to tournaments in a couple of weer
and I know Wisconsin could be one of those teams," said Yoder after hks.
team's 82-70 victory over the Wolverines. "But I know we're not going to go""
No, they're not. Nor is Michigan. Neither team's record merits post'-
season play. At 8-17, the Badgers might as well take their phones off the ho
on March 13 when tournaments deliver their invitations. No bids will dial tli'
Madison school's number this year.
The Wolverines, however, still could make the National Invitational TouM'
nament if they sweep their final three games to finish at 16-12. The chance
of beating Minnesota, Iowa and Northwestern, though, are slim.
"Worse than slim," Frieder notes. "I'd say none."
Oh well. If the current weather holds up, Eric Turner, Tim McCormick
and the rest will enjoy Ann Arbor more than New York, anyway.
How much fun would the NIT be in the first place? It would be an an-
climax after an 18-game Big Ten schedule. With the presumed top 52 team&
going to the NCAA championships, the 32-team NIT will be less competitive
than the Mid-American.Conference tournament. At least the MAC school
have something to play for - an NCAA berth and a shot at the nationAt
championship. Put together a couple of upsets and Ball State, Yoder's orq
school, gains coast-to-coast recognition.. -
Do you think that gives a basketball program a boost? Just ask the peopf(
at Boston College. Some good fortune in last year's NCAAs and now a teaif
whose starting center couldn't beat out Paul Heuermann at Michigan three
years ago is on national television every week.
But win the NIT and you might make page three of USA Today's sports
section.
Plainly, the NIT is a poor basketball tournament. Its first two rounds are
played at the home courts of the.participants with the largest arenas. Third;
round games are played at the schools most likely to attract large followings,
to New York's Madison Square Garden for the final two rounds.
And when it's all over, the winners can stand up and shout, "We're number
53!"
What a distinction.
It's a shame that individuals like Yoder and Frieder list an NIT among,
their team's goals. First-class teams should not shoot for a second-clash
championship.
The NCAA could remedy this situation. Just expandits tournament to inZ
clude every Division I school and the NIT is eliminated.
But would the addition of a couple hundred also-rans to the NCAAiC
cheapen the tournament? Probably not. There'd be a few first-round blow'
outs but the best teams still would make it to the Final Four. And no one
could complain about not receiving a bid. All-inclusive playoffs work in high
school - why not in college?
The current tournament structure has created what amounts to a con-
solation bracket. Why, the NIT isn't even good enough for BC's John Garris.

To repeat or not to repeat, that is the
question.
Not to repeat.
MICHIGAN'S MEN'S track team
takes to the road this weekend to com-
pete at Michigan State in the Big Ten
Indoor Championships.
The Wolverine tracksters are the
defending champions, but that doesn't
mean much when there are four other
teams with strong chances to capture
the coveted crown. Those four , In-
diana, Michigan St., Wisconsin, and
Illinois, will pose big problems for
Michigan.
"I think Indiana's going to win it.
They've got the best overall perfor-
mances going in," predicted Michigan
coach Jack Harvey.
WHAT ABOUT the Wolverines? Are
they destined to finish in the muddled
mid-section of the league?
"We're going to have to place a lot of
guys in a lot of events. If we win, it will
be on depth," Harvey conceded.
Regardless of the outcome of the
team standings, the individual com-
petitions should be outstanding.
THE MILE run will feature two men
ds'path
who have broken the magic four-minute
mark. Indiana's Jim Spivey and f
Michigan's Brian Diemer have run
3:59.2 and 3:59.9, respectively this
season. The two should electrify the
Jenison Field House crowd.
"Diemer can't sit back and let him
(Spivey) kick, because Spivey has
more speed than Diener," remarked
the Michigan mentor on the big race.
The rest of the meet, however, will
not be short on stiff competition.
THERE WILL be several close races ,
in the sprints. Michigan State's Marcus
Saunders and Eliot Tabron, Wiscon-
sin's LeRoy Dixon, and Indiana's Sun-
der Nix are the key runners in the
300,440, and 600 yard dashes.
Michigan's Derek Harper and Vince
Bean will attempt to outjump favorites
Kerry Zimmerman and Eric McCarrol,
of Indiana, in the long jump, while
Johnny Nielsen squares off against
Illinois' Rich Badar for top honors in
the shot put.
