I Wrestling vs. Lehigh Tomorrow, 7:30 p.m. Crisler Arena The Michigan Daily SPORTS Women's Basketball vs. Illinois Friday, 7 p.m. Crisler Arena Page 8 Wednesday, January 9, 1985 Knigh By JEFF BERGIDA The Indiana Hoosiers had their New Year's Eve party two nights after everyone else. The affair was held January 2 at Crisler Arena and came at the expense of the Michigan basketball team. Bobby Knight's Hoosiers made the Wolverines, ranked 17th in the nation going into the contest, look like a high school team during the 87-62 mismatch. Michigan suffered its worst defeat at home since Crisler opened in 1967. In fact, the last time a Wolverine team lost a home game by more than 25 points was in 1953. THE CAGERS compiled a 4-2 record over break, including an impressive 87- 82 victory over Ohio State Saturday, but the Indiana fiasco overshadowed everything else. Michigan completely fell apart in the second half. Indiana held a 43-37 halftime lead but guard Dan Dakich made a couple of steals and quick baskets which put IU up by 10 before the Wolverines knew what hit them. It went downhill from there. Hoosier center Uwe Blab had a career-high 31 points while limiting Michigan's Roy Tarpley to 12 on four of 15 shooting. Michigan shot a miserable 35 percent as a team and came out for the next day's practice looking like sur- $ivors of a nuclear holocaust.

"All of a sudden you think 'Oh-oh, we're gonna go 0-18.' " THE YEAR-OLD feud between Knight and Frieder apparently ended when the hysterical Hoosier came out onto the court and put his opposing number in a headlock. The crowd of 13,555 appreciated Knight's attempt at civilized behavior. The Wolverines came out of their collective depression on Saturday and dominated a well-regarded OSU club for 37 minutes en route to their ninth victory of the season. Antoine Joubert looked like the scoring machine he was at Detroit Southwestern, leading all scorers with a career-high 27 points. The sophomore also teamed up with Gary Grant to contain Buckeye guards Troy Taylor and Ron Stokes for most of the contest. The Wolverines held a comfortable 82-69 lead with 3:14 remaining and a late run by Ohio State was fruitless. "CONSIDERING what happened Wednesday night, we did a great job of getting our team ready to play a tough basketball game," Frieder said. "Our kids responded to everything we did the last couple of days. They came ready to play." Grant, who went to the same high school as Stokes and Taylor, made his old friends look bad. The freshman orn 'M' 0 wound up with 16 points, 10 assists, and six rebounds while playing 40 minutes. The starting guards shared a room at Campus Inn the night before the game and discussed what they would have to do to bounce back from the Indiana debacle. The results of the conference speak for themselves. "It was a great game for me because I'm from Ohio," said Grant, who graduated from Canton McKinley three years after Stokes and Taylor. "Coming off a loss by 25 points, this was a real confidence builder." Michigan suffered its first loss of the season at Tennessee on December 28. The Wolverines, 8-0 entering the game, jumped out to a 20-11 lead but were in foul trouble throughout the game. The Volunteers were 29 of 34 from the charity stripe while Michigan was seven of 11 and fell, 81-77. The loss could be more accurately attributed to poor officiating than weak play as the Wolverines shot 56 percent from the field and out-rebounded Tennessee, 32- 15. Joubert had 19 points to lead Michigan while Tarpley and Grant ad- ded 16 apiece. Volunteer forward Michael Brooks led all scorers with 20 points. In other action, Michigan had home victories over Eastern Michigan (83- 72), Alcorn State (84-81), and Rutgers (93-77). 4 I Daily Photo by STU WEIDENBACH the hatchet prior to the Hoosiers' 87-62 trouncing of the Michigan coach Bill Frieder and Indiana's Bobby Knight bury Wolverines, January 2 at Crisler Arena.

Earlier this year, the Maize and Blue football patrons hid their heads in shame, as their Wolverines lost four of their last six games to finish at an unforgivable 6-6. BUT THE women's basketball faithful, including Head Coach Bud Van De Wege, are holding their heads high even though the women cagers dropped four of their six games over winter break and are also at 6-6. . "I'm not disappointed," Van De Wege said Monday, "because we played especially well." Van De Wege, in his first year at the Michigan helm, is en- titled to his remarks, since he inherited a team that was 4-22 last year. "I'M NOT CONCERNED," said Van De Wege, talking about the 2-4 record over break. "We're a young team and we're learning a great deal." The Wolverines, who feature three freshman among their top six scorers, started the winter break portion of their schedule on a bad note. They played poorly against Detroit on December 16 and lost, 63-49. "The U of D game was the most disappointing," Van De Wege said. "We did not come to play. It was our worst game of the year, but that's the only game I'm unhappy about." THE WOLVERINES turned things around five days later, when they defeated Toledo, 82-62. Michigan's 20-point margin of victory thoroughly avenged last year's 19-point loss to the Rockets. On December 30, Michigan salvaged a 76-67 victory over winless Eastern Michigan in the consolation game of the Domino Classic. The Wolverines lost to a tough Nebraska team, 64-54, in the first round of their holiday tournament, but Van De Wege was not upset with the split. "I was very happy to get one win," he said. MICHIGAN'S TOUGHEST loss of the year came last Friday, as it dropped its Big Ten opener. Indiana stopped the Wolverines in overtime, 69-64, at Bloomington. Despite the loss, Van De Wege said he was proud of the way his team battled against the heavily-favored Hoosiers. The Wolverines also lost at Ohio State on Sunday, 79-51., The Buckeyes were 17-1.in the conference last year and are currently ranked ninth in the country so the defeat was not surprising. Michigan probably would have beaten Indiana if forwarq Wendy Bradetich had had one of her usually strong games. But Bradetich, the third leading scorer in the conference last year, scored just six points and grabbed only two rebounds against the Hoosiers. 4 BRADETICH, in fact, has not played well in her last four games. She had averaged just eight points, lowering her season average to 13.1. Van De Wege explained that Bradetich might be having trouble adjusting to his style of play. Last year, she was thy queen of the offense, shooting pretty much when she wanted. "Our offense doesn't promote shooting the ball," Van De Wege said. "We promote balance, and she might be having trouble accepting that new role." MEANWHILE, OVER in the .other forward spot, Loreq Feldman is doing just fine. The 6-0 freshman is still sizzlin, after a hot start. She leads the team in scoring (14.5) and rebounding (7.2). Feldman is also shooting 58 percent from. the floor. Michigan is now 0-2 in the conference, and Van De Wego said he would like to finish with at least a 6-12 record. "Anything from there on up would be icing," he said. The Wolverines will go after their first conference win on Friday when they meet Illinois at Crisler Arena. I Blue tumbler tops MSU tourney I - MEN WINNERS EVERY DAY! 0 C) By SKIP GOODMAN Michigan's Gavin Meyerowitz turned in his best performance so far this season in winning the all-around com- petition at last weekend's Spartan In- vitational Gymnastic Meet. Meyerowitz's 54.10 point effort easily outdistanced the 52.95 total turned in by second place finisher Keith Pettit of Michigan State. The meet was an individual com- petition so team scores were not figured. In addition to Michigan and Michigan State, Western Michigan, Eastern Michigan and Wisconsin were represented. Western's Al Scharnes and Wisconsin's Gary Griffin tied for third (52.85) and MSU's John Sellis took fifth place with a score of 52.70. MICHIGAN'S Craig Ehle finished LIBERAL ARTS MAJORS...

And they'll tell you about the rewards of hands on career experience eighth in the all-around competition with a score of 50.80. Other strong per- formances for the Wolverines were tur- ned in by Nick Lanphier and Mitch Rose who finished 13th (45.35) and 14th (43.65), respectively. Meyerowitz was outstanding in Saturday's preliminaries, qualifying for the finals in all six events. The junior was strongest in the Horizontal Bar, taking third place with an average score of 9.30. Meyerowtiz also finished third in the Still Rings (9.10) and Pom- mel Horse (8.95). His 9.05 average score on the Parallel Bars was enough to earn fourth place. Meyerowitz rounded out his individual effort by tying teammate Mitch Rose for fourth place in the Floor Exercise (8.75). In addition to his strong showing in the floor routine, Rose tied Wisconsin's Griffin for first place on the Horizontal Bar at 9.40. Rose also contributed a six- th place finish on the Parallel Bars (8.60). Other key contributions to the Wolverine effort were provided by Jon Ross and Stu Downing. Ross unleashed the best performance of his career to overcome the competition on the Still Rings, enroute to a 9.30 first place finish. Downing edged out Meyerowiti for second place on the Pommel Horse (9.10). Coach Bob Darden credited his team success to "a considerable amount of time and effort in their training." Dar- den added, "It is just a matter of building on these performances for the remainder of the season." Darden said that the Spartan In- vitational was important in helping the team prepare for the coming season. The Wolverines' next competition is a co-ed meet against Ohio State at Crisler Arena on January 26. a VOLUNTEER at UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HOSPITALS Attend an Information Session to learn about exciting volunteer opportunities in: Adult/Child Psychiatric Hospitals Ambulatory Care Services Main/Kellog Motor Meals of Ann Arbor Mott Children's/Women's Holden Perinatal Hospitals If You Find Your Name in Today's Michigan Daily Classified Page Opportunities exist in inpatient care, research, i
