4 Page 10 - The Michigan Daily - Tuesday, February 5, 1985 SPORTS OF THE DAILY 'M' tumblers stumble Mullin leads By SKIP GOODMAN 'The consistency of our perfor- mance was not up to par this past weekend," said men's gymnastics coach Bob Darden of his team's per- formance last weekend at the Illinois Gymnastics Competition. That inconsistency threw the Wolverine tumblers into a last place finish in the three-team meet with a total score of 259.35. Illinois took fir- st in their home meet (271.05), and Wisconsin took (269.30) second. Michigan's Gavin Meyerowitz scored as well as he has all season on the first five events of the all-around competition but faltered on the high bar. His 8.60 pulled him out of con- tention and dropped him to fourth place with a 54.05 total. The Illini's Charles Lake rolled to first place in the all-around (57.55), scoring better than 9.60 in all but the rings, including two "tens" on the high bar. Wisconsin's Gary Griffen turned in a consistently strong per- formance, scoring between 9.2 and 9.4 on five of the six events to finish second at 55.35. Illinois' Tigran Nk- chyan took third at 54.55. Michigan's Mitch Rose made another step in his recovery from a wrist injury with a strong fourth place effort in the all-around. Dar- den praised Rose's efforts in the past two weeks of competition. "It was great to see that the im- provement in (Rose's) weaker even- ts supported his all-around score this week rather than having to rely on scores from his strong events," he said. Craig Ehle turned in mediocre scores in finishing seventh overall (51.90), but Darden attributed the low score to Ehle's competing at the top of the lineup in every event. Said Darden, "He had to 'break the ice' for the other Michigan men on the apparatus". Other Wolverine highlights in- cluded freshman Scott Moore's 9.45 on the floor exercise, his per- sonal best, and the progress of freshmen Ken Haller and Nick Lan- phier. "The effort that they are put- ting into the sport during training is just now beginning to emerge in competitions," Darden commented. Irish nail spikers With no mention of the proverbial "luck of the Irish," there were possibly some strange forces at work in the Central Campus Recreation Building last Friday night as the men's volleyball team suffered its first defeat of the season, losing to Notre Dame, 3-2. Game 1 saw the Irish step out to an early 6-2 lead, and despite the aggressive play of Wolverine Gregg Davis, Notre Dame went on to win 15-8. Michigan fell behind early in the second game, but fought back to an 8-8 tie. Finding their rhythm, the Wolverines totally shut down the Irish for the rest of the game, gaining a 15-8 victory and a 1-1 tie in the match. With the match tied 2-2, the Wolverines raced to an 11-1 lead in game five, but Notre Dame took ad- vantage of several Michigan errors and tied the game at 11-11. In the tense final minutes, the Fighting Irish scraped their way to a 16-14 victory, and the final 3-2 win in the match. After the match, Coach McFadden said he was "not at all disappointed" with his squad's performance. Coming off wins against non-league rivals Wooster College and Bowling Green State University, McFadden claimed "the team did a damn good job. Although we lost, I'm still very happy with our performance.r Michiganais at home tomorrow against Indiana and Purdue. Redmen 4 -JOHN LAHERTY MAJOR LEAGUE TRYOUT For FREEA write: PO. BOX 6207 EVANYN.
