Soo Lakers knock off

Dries' two tallies not
By TOM KEANEY
Special to the Daily
SAULT STE. MARIE-Okay, maybe win
ning is everything.
In spite of playing one of its best
games fundamentally, the Michigan
hockey team didn't improve its CCHA
playoff position losing a 4-3 thriller last
night to Lake Superior at the North
Center.
BOTH TEAMS played extremely well
If not for some clutch goaltending at
both ends, the scores would have been
doubled.
The teams skated to a 1-1 deadlock in
the first period, due mostly to the effor-
ts of Michigan goaltender Mark
Chiamp,as the Wolverines were out
shot 13-5.
"Chiamp was exceptionally sharp in
the first period," said head coach Red
Berenson. "Our defense had a little lap-
se and he came up with the big saves."
THE WOLVERINES opened up the
scoring at 13:19 in the first period.
Senior Ray Dries picked up a loose puck
all alone in the slot and didn't stop to
say thank you before firing it past
shocked Lake Superior goalie Randy
Exelby.
Laker center Jim Roque brought his
team right back, lacing a slap shot on
the ice beating Chiamp to the left side to
close out the scoring for the first period.
"Right there from the end of the first
we dominated the game," said Beren-
son. "We just didn't finish the plays
well."
THE LAKERS didn't have that
problem, however, and the fireworks
began early in the second period.
Alan Butler gave the Lakers a 2-1 lead
on a breakaway shot past Chiamp's
right side.
Lake Superior extended their lead at
5:24 as Chiamp was caught going the
other way on a Craig Hewson wrist
shot, which trickled through the
senior's legs.
MICHIGAN came back at 7:22, as
Ray Dries, ever the opportunist,
scooped up another loose puck and fired
for an unassisted goal.
"Everyone was just standing
around," said Dries. "I thought the
whistle must have blown or
something."
The Lakers' Scott Thompson made
the score 4-2 at 8:42, and, after a wild
nine minutes, the teams settled down to
some mild uneventful hockey.

The post-game attitude was'a positive
one for the Wolverines.
"THE WHOLE team is starting to
come together now," said senior defen-
seman Mike Neff. "Tonight we played
well enough to win, it was just a matter
of a few breaks."
"Things are starting to click now
where it didn't click earlier in the
year," said Dries.
Berenson summed it up. "That was
as good a road game as I can remem-
ber. It was just a lack of finish around
the net."
The loss drops Michigan to 9-17-1 in
the CCHA, and boosts second-place
Lake Superior to 19-10. The two teams
will square off again tonight at Sault.

By DEBRA deFRANCES
}. If strength, speed and determination
are all it takes to become a legendary
runner, then some members of the
women's track team have a head start
on their claim to fame.
The women will have an opportunity
to display their talents in front of a
home crowd today at the Wolverine-
Nike Open in the Track and Tennis
Building.
ROOKIE coach James Henry said his
team should be near its peak in today's
meet. "We're just coming off our
strength training with weights, so I ex-
pect good things," Henry said.
Junior co-captain Sue Schroeder
agrees that the emphasis on building up
strength early in the season has helped
her progress. "The weights have helped
a lot. Without that, we wouldn't have a
base to work from," she said.
Apparently the strength workouts
have proved successful for Schroeder
because, in the last two weekends, she
has set meet and school records for the
1500-meter run as well as qualifying for
the NCAA Championships in both the
1500-meter and 3000-meters.
SCHROEDER isn't the only long
distance runner performing well these
days. "Cathy Schmidt, who qualified
for Nationals in the 800-meter run,
should also be running well at this
meet," Henry said.
Although many of the team mem-
bers, including Deidre Bradley, Angie
Hafner and Dawn McGinnis, have been
Dlacing in their events, junior Cathy
team's optimism stems from a united
effort and a coach who keeps an eye on
everyone's progress.
"(Coach Henry) is doing a really
good job," said Schmidt. "Although the
distance runners, the field events and
the sprinters all train separately, he
tries to make sure he knows what
everyone is doing. That's good.
The Wolverines hope that that at-
titude will help them on their track
toward the NCAA championships in
March.
Auburn hoop couch resigns
AUBURN, Ala (AP)-Auburn
basketball coach Sonny Smith announ-
ced yesterday that he is resigning at the
end of the season to enter the oil
business.
Smith acknowledged at a news con-
ference that he has passed out at
several Auburn games this season, but
he said his health played no part in his
decision to resign.
INSTEAD, Smith said he had a
business opportunity "that was too
good to pass up."
Auburn Athletic Director Pat Dye
expressed disappointment.
"We certainly hate to see Sonny leave
our program, but we all want what is
best for him," Dye said. "This was no
quick or easy decision on his part. He
has agonized over it for some time and
if this is what Sonny thinks is best, we
support him in his decision.
