6 SPORTS The Michigan Daily Tuesday, March 22, 1983 Page 8 After a competitive round of regular season mini-soccer matches, the competing teams are now heating up for the single elimination tournament. This event will be the culmination of a grueling season and will decide, once and for all, who the real mini-soccer champs will be. With so much fame and fortune resting on this tournament, one would ex- pect national coverage for the event. But to the shock of millions, no network coverage is scheduled; the networks are claiming that there is more of a demand for coverage of some basketball tournament. I think it is called the NCAA championships or something. Whatever their excuse, it is just a shame that more people won't be exposed to the skillful play of such for- midable mini-soccer teams as the Photen Torpedoes and the Dense Paks. MANY UP and coming stars of the soccer world will be showcased in next week's tournament. It is rumored that retired pro soccer star Pele has his roots in Michigan intramural mini-soccer. Who knows what stars of the future will be strutting their stuff in the Sports Coliseum at the corner of Fif- th and Hill streets this year. So, if you want to see some fast action and to have the chance to view the super stars of tomorrow, take time out to check out the action at the mini- soccer single elimination tournament. For those teams that plan to par- ticipate in the tournament, playoff instant scheduling starts Thursday, Mar- ch 24, from 11:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. in IMSB Main Lobby.

The Wolverines returned to Ann Arctic Sunday night, after winning 11 of 12 games, including 6-0 in the Rollins In- vitational Tournament, in the more friendly climes of central Florida. And despite the weather that greeted him at the airport, coach Bud Middaugh is eager to get back to work to prepare for the rest of the season. "WE'LL START working our pit- chers on Wednesday already," Mid- daugh said. "We need a lot of work." By "we," Middaugh means the pit- chers. Aside from junior Dave Kopf, no pitcher showed the consistency Mid- daugh would like to see. The trouble has been a familiar early season nemisis for pitchers - control. In 92 innings, Michigan pitchers walked 60 batters, far too many if the Wolverines hope to continue their winning ways. Junior Gary Wayne and freshman Casey Close especially had problems finding the plate, as each hurler averaged more than one walk per inning. So how did Michigan win 11 out of 12 games, its best start in 74 years, with shaky pitching? Easy. Great hitting. "WE GAVE up a lot of runs," Mid- daugh said, "but we scored a lot too." And score they did. The Wolverines averaged 7.4 runs in 12 games played, including games of 13,13, and 10 runs. They also banged out 41 extra base hits, while hitting a crisp .319 as a team. Chris Sabo, Ken Hayward, and Jeff elcome Jacobson, hitting in the 2-3-4 spots in the lineup, did most of the damage. All three were named to the all-tournament team. Junior thirdbaseman Sabo cracked six homers, while hitting .347. Hayward hit .419 and knocked in 15 runs. Senior co-captain Jacobson ha4 18 RBIs to go with his .349 average. ADDITIONALLY, the Wolverines came from behind to win in four of the 11 wins, which, according to Middaugh shows "they're winning caliber" ballplayers. But Middaugh cautioned against overoptimism, adding that many of the games were played against teams with overworked pitching staffs. "We played 12 games in nine days, as did most of the teams we played," the fourth-year skipper said. "The real test will come when we play on a regular schedule." By that time Middaugh hopes veteran pitchers Rich Stoll and Tim Karazim will be in mid-season form. Though, he has a 3-0 record, Stoll's ERA is a lofty 4.91. Middaugh said flatly that Stoll ."has not pitched well." And Middaugh' termed Karazim's play as "incon- sistent," despite three saves. But if the pitching comes around and the strong hitting continues the Michigan jauggernaut could keep right on winning. The Wolverines have a week to get things in order before resuming action. They play Grand Valley in their home opener next Tuesday, barring snowstorms or other natural disasters, of course. 5 Stigmas 4, 3rd Lewis Mixers 0 Williams 5, The Rage 110 Kameljocks 7, Law Gold 3 Samba Kid In. 5, Leafhopper United 3 Minimum Contact 4, Latin Force 2 Gumbimen 7, 3192 Syntax Errors 2, Missing Persons 2 Clockwork Orange 2, Lodgers 0 The Orbitals win by forfeit over Alpha Delts Rumsey Members win by forfeit over Sigma Chi Xanadu Hamsters win by forfeit over Blagdon Boppers Neither-Show Futher Muckers and P.

Soft ballers Special to the Daily The Michigan softball team con- tinued to roll as they swept two games yesterday on their South Carolina trip, 4-2, and 13-0. The victories were the fif- th and sixth without a loss on the southern swing and left the softballers with an 11-5 record for the season. In the first game, Michigan squeaked past Rutgers, 4-2, behind the pitching of Sandy Taylor, who ran her won-loss mark to 4-3. Carol Patrick contributed a home run to the offensive attack. Co te.

The game was cut short after four innings because of the lopsided score and the cold weather of Carolina. The softball team continues its series of games today against Ohio University and will go up against South Carolina in a doubleheader on Wednesday.

Wolverine Rick Kaufmann, one of the only collegiate athletes to throw it in competition, com- pleted the trick but faltered on the landing at last weekend's Chicagoland Invitational. Such a difficult move is usually not part of his routine but Kaufmann, ranked second in the region with 9.70 on rings, used the meet as preparation for the NCAA Championships to be held in early April. Northern Illinois won the Chicago meet, and Iowa, Louisiana State, and Indiana were also in attendance. Michigan did not accumulate a substantial team score, sen- ding only its top individuals. "It was just another little warm- up for the nationals," said coach Newt Loken. Mike McKee was one Wolverine who counted heavily on his performance in Chicago. Ranked seventh in the region with 9.58 on floor, McKee needed a 9.6 to raise his ranking to sixth in order to qualify for the national championships. Unfor- tunately, he tumbled short with a 9.4 but he could still qualify SPORTS OF THE DAILY through the at-large selections made next week. Meanwhile, Kevin McKee achieved a career high on the weekend with an outstanding 9.85 on the floor exercise. Ranked number one on floor in the Mideast region, he sports a 9.2 average going into the nationals. "We're very proud of having four blue shirts at the NCAA's," said Loken, who will be retiring following the NCAAs, after 36 years at Michigan. "We will have one of the largest individual contingents competing." Those individuals include Milan Stanovich, who averaged' 9.71 on the vault, good enough for fourth in the region. Also making the trek to Penn State for the championships will be parallel bar expert Dino Manus who notched a 9.48 average to rank fourth despite problems with a shoulder injury. "The shoulder appears to be well on the road to recovery; said Loken, who knows top physical condition is a must again- st the likes of Nebraska, UCLA and Oklahoma. "We've been fortunate to be on the floor already with the contenders," said Loken. "We're optimistic and are looking forward to the meet with excitement and anticipation." 6 Joubert voted state S top cager ammmmmm mm mm mmmm -- ----- ----- 3 m * LADIES DAY IS EVERY DAY at the * CROSS-EYED MOOSE & * FLIPPER McGEE'S 1613 E.

Thompson and Turner will join Joubert at Michigan next fall while can do," said the player who has been tagged "The Judge" because of his ambition to be a lawyer. "Not five - only one." Tigers 10, Red Sox 8 WINTER HAVEN, Fla. (UPI)-Rick Leach's two out RBI single in the ninth sent the game into extra innings and German Barranca singled in the tie- breaking run in the 10th yesterday to lift the Detroit Tigers to a 10-8 exhibition win over the Boston Red Sox. The loss was the sixth straight for Boston, 4-9, while Detroit improved to 9- 4. Glenn Wilson doubled off loser Dave Schoppee with one out in the 10th an scored moments later when Barranca, a non-roster infielder, singled down the right field line. The second run came on on Alan Trammell's infield out. The Red Sox, who got homers from Tony Armas and Carl Yastrzemski, led 8-7 entering the ninth, but Larry Her- ndon opened the inning with an infield hit. Pinch runner Barbo Garbey moved to second on an infield out and scored one out later when Leach drilled a 1-2 delivery to right center. Aurelio Lopez pitched two hitless innings to earn the win. The Tigers took a 4-0 lead in third off Bob Ojeda on an RBI single by Tram- mell, a two-run single by Lance Parrish and an RBI single by Mike Ivie. I Joubert ...
