Hockey vs. Western Michigan Friday, 7:30 p.m. Yost Ice Arena SPORT S Women's Basketball vs. Minnesota Today, 2:00 p.m. Crisler Arena The Michigan Daily Sunday, February 17, 1985 Page 7 Icers stifle Bucks for playoff bid, 6-4 By TOM KEANEY Special to the Daily COLUMBUS - For the first time in three seasons the Michigan hockey team will see playoff action. The Wolverines, completing a sweep over Ohio State with a 6-4 victory-last night in Columbus, clinched seventh place and a CCHA playoff birth. "HOW DO YOU like that weekend, huh?" said an elated Ray Dries after the game. Coach Berenson liked it fine. "We came in here with our backs to the wall," said Berenson. "Our defense was good and we got great goaltending and that gives the whole team con- fidence." Chris Seychel completed his best series of the season, leading the way with two goals and two assists. "I CAME IN here thinking two games," said Seychel. There was no way we were going to settle for one." The first period ended with (surprise) no goals scored, the first time that has happened to the Wolverines in almost two years. The second period however, was wor- th the price of admission. The whole game was played in the second frame, as the two teams woke up and combined for eight goals. "I THOUGHT we outplayed them," said Ohio State head coach Jerry Welsh. "But they came out big in the second period and put us away." Todd Carlile got Michigan in to it at :35 on what looked to be a harmless wrist shot from the point. But State defenseman Mile Rousseau deflected the puck with his glove into the net. At 3:04 Tom Stiles made the score 2-0. Mike Neff drove a slap shot wide, but the puck bounced out to the waiting St. Paul native, who knocked a trickier on the ice between Bob Krautsak's legs. THE BUCKEYES finally fought back at 6:28 as Mark Anderson found Joe Tracy open in the slot for their first goal. Frank Downing backed into a goal at 9:09, when Seychel bounced a wrist shot off Downing's leg on a two-on-one break. But the Buckeyes weren't out yet. Ohio State center Darcy Gryba, on a power play, made the score 3-2. Gryba brought the puck out from behind the net and jammed it past Chiamp at the pipe. SEYCHEL'S first goal came at 14:15 when the junior deftly knocked the puck away from Mark Shortt in the Michigan zone and took off on a breakaway.. Seychel left Krautsak outside the arena somewhere, deaking him to the right side. After a slew of penalties at 16:04, in- cluding double minors to Neff and Tracy, the Wolverines went up 5-2. Dries, on ,a two-on-one with Bill Brauer faked a slap shot and dished a cupcake to the defenseman. Brauer Twice as nice on ice FIRST PERIOD Scoring: none.

"RAY MADE the whole play," said Brauer. "My grandma could have put that in." The never ending periods' scoring came to a close with just three seconds left, Dave Beaudin accounting for OSU's third goal on the power play. In the third period Michigan simply coasted. "THEY'D BE at the top of the league with (Michigan) State if they played like this all the time," said Welsh. Seychel made the derriere-kicking complete with his second goal, blasting a slap shot from the left slot past Kraut- sak, who looked worse (if it's possible) than ever. In what can only be called inane refereeing, Jeff Norton, retaliating on a Rick Brabant hack, was given a major spearing penalty and a game miscon- duct. Oddly enough Brebant "miraculously" got up to score a poser play goal just 46 seconds later. One the major, Michigan remained shorthanded and only the last minute heroics of the defense, especially Neff and Brauer, preserved the lead. The playoff-bound Wolverines are now 11-18-1 while the Buckeyes fll to 13- 17-2. 1 2 MICHIGAN ......................0 5 Ohio State.....................0 3 SAVES M-Chiamp 34; OSU-Krautsak 19 Attendance: 1700 3 1 1 T 6 4 Se chel ...scores twice Tumblers trounced by By SCOTT G. MILLER The men's gymnastics team's scores have fluctuated all season, but one aspect of the team's performance has remained constant. The tumblers have not won a single meet. The Wolverines lost last night to Wisconsin 270.25- 256.1 at Crisler Arena. The Badgers posted their highest away score of the year using most of their second stringers. "WE HAVE three meets this weekend," said Wisconsin coach Mark Pflughoeft. "After beating Western Michigan, I felt we had to rest our starters to compete with Michigan State today. I was really pleased to get some guys who don't perform often some work and have them perform so well." Manpower was the key factor in the meet. "It was a super meet for us considering our lack of depth," said Michigan coach Bob Darden. "Despite some of our low scores, it was a definite improvement over last weeks 243." The tumblers were without freshman all-arounder Craig Ehle who sprained his neck in practice, but all- arounder Nick Lannhier returned to the lineup after missing last week's meet. "Nick really helped our score even though he was not one hundred percent," said Darden. "He did a heck of a job." THE WOLVERINE attack was bolstered by the return of senior Steve Scheinman who quit the team at the end of last season. "Steve left the team to reorient some of his priorities," said Darden. "He has practiced with us and he wanted to show his 0 Wisconsin routines in front of some judges." Gavin Meyerowitz turned in his usual excellent performance scoring a season high 55.2 in the all around, which was good enough for second place overall. Meyerowitz had team high scores in the floor exercise, pommel horse, and parallel bars. "Gavin's performance was consistent across the board," commented Darden. The tumblers floor exercise and vaulting specialist, Scott Moore, performed well. Moore won the vault with a 9.45 and placed third in the floor exercise with a 9.2. AlI-arounder Mitch Rose came in second place with a 54.34. His 9.6 on the rings took first place in that event.
