Not only do the members of the Michigan women's basketball team respect the freshman's high school athletic credentials, but they also fall short of Morozko's 6-7 height. Morozko, who hails from Westlake, Ohio, does indeed present dominating potential. Last year she averaged ap- proximately 18 points, 14 rebounds, and four blocked shots per game for Westlake High School. In Michigan's first two games, she is averaging five points, four rebounds, and three blocked shots. HEAD COACH Gloria Soluk hopes that Morozko will be able to keep up those kinds of statistics in college. Soluk is counting on the freshman to take charge under the boards. "She's our center," said Soluk. "It's too early to say whether she'll start or not, but we're hoping she'll see a lot of playing time. We're really looking for her to be a dominating inside force."

They have to get used to going hard for 40 minutes." The transition doesn't seem to bother . Morozko, although she does notice a dif- ference in college athletes. "I thought my teammates in high school were good, but I came here and everybody can shoot and handle the ball so well," said Morozko. "Sometimes you don't think you can play with them, but you've just got to shake it off." NOT ONLY must Morozko adapt to the higher level of competition, she also has to get used to Soluk's rigorous prac- tice schedule. After a month of con- ditioning, the women began regular practices in October, spending as much as two-and-a-half hours on the court six days a week. Morozko seems to have made the adjustment to university life and enjoys going to school at Michigan. She did consider enrolling at South Carolina and Cincinnati, but feels she made the right decision. "This is a better school academically and we're going to have a good basket- ball program," said Morozko. "Besides, I really like the people."
