The score stood 3-1 Western at the time, and while that was how the game would end, State rooters knew that nothing was going to get past Bronco goalie Bill Horn that night. THE FRESHMAN netminder stopped all but one of Michigan State's 38 shots, robbed Hobey Baker Award finalist Mike Donnelly on a number of occasions and was named the tour- nament's Most Outstanding Player. "You expect that of goaltenders,' said an elated Bronco coach Bill Wilkinson, "but anytime you get that kind of performance out of a young man, you have to be very, very pleased. Bill was incredible." Western got on the board first with a short-handed goal by forward Rob Adams, on a great pass from CCHA player-of-the-year Dan Dorion. Western took that slim lead into the second period, and when Wayne Gagne raced up center ice and laid a great move on State goalie Bob Essense, the score was 2-0 heading in to the final period. STATE SUPPORTERS 15,000 strong were immediately given something to cheer about when defen- seman Tom Tilley's slap shot from the blue line got past Horn after hit- ting someone in front of the net. But while the fans were high-fiving one another MSU forward Jeff Parker was busy pounding on Bronco Jim Culhane. Parker was assessed a roughing penalty which immediately put Western, the most efficient power- play team in the country, in a man-up situation. It took only 1:07 for Troy Thrun to build the lead back to two goals, and it took all the heart out of State and their fans. "That was the turning point of the game, I thought, when they got a lucky goal, but then took a penalty on that goal," said Wilkinson. "We're the number-one power-play unit in the nation and when you give us oppor- tunities we are going to score." Horn then proceeded to save everything MSU threw at him, and Western Michigan became the first non-MSU team to win the CCHA tour- nament in its five year existence. It was also the first time in 20 games the Spartans had lost at Joe Louis Arena. "It couldn't happen to a bunch of nicer guys," said Bronco forward Stu Burnie, one of five Western players selected to the all-tournament team. Michigan State 3, Lake Superior 2 Despite executing its game plan to near perfection, Lake Superior lost to Michigan State 3-2 in CCHA semi- final action on Friday night at Joe Louis Arena. "I think Lake Superior should have won the hockey game tonight," said Laker coach Frank Anzalone. "I think we dominated almost every area of the game." THE LAKERS held the explosive Spartan offense to a meager 20 shots on goal while attempting 28 shots. Michigan State goalie Norm Foster singlehandledly ruined Laker plans of an upset. "We use everything we have to win games, and one of the areas we used to win is our goalkeeping," said Spar- tan head coach Ron Mason. "Normie came up big again." Foster frustrated the Lakers in the third period as he turned aside all ten shots he faced. Lake Superior had closed the score to 3-2 after goals in the second period by Kim McIvor and Jeff Dicaire. Spartan second period goals were scored by Mike Donnelly and Kevin Miller. Dave Arkeilpane opened the Michigan State scoring at 12:33 of the opening period. While the Spartans received production from fourth-line center Arkeilpane, the Lakers' top players failed to produce. "If we had a sniper we may have won the game," said Anzalone. "That has been our problem all year, and it finally caught up with us." -SCOTT G. MILLER W. Michigan 4, B. Green 3 (3 OT) They were as even as could be. Western Michigan and Bowling Green ended the CCHA regular, season with identical 23-9 records,' tied for second place.aFriday night at Joe Louis Arena, the Broncos and the Falcons remained tied after three periods, after overtime, and after a second overtime. BRONCO CAPTAIN Chris Mac-, Donald broke the deadlock- at 58 seconds of the third overtime with a slap shot from inside the blue line. Western won 4-3, advancing to the finals against Michigan State orr Saturday. CCHA player-of-the-year Dan Dorion made the play for the Broncos. The senior right winger took the puck behind the Flacon net, and came out to the left of Bowling Green goalie Gary Kruzich. With a defenseman blocking his path to the goal, Dorion passed the puck out towards the blue line. MacDonald, a senior defen- seman, fired a shot a foot off the ice to Kruzich's stick side for the game win- ner. - RICK KAPLAN A"' Horn ... outstanding A SPOR TS OF THE DAILY: 'Women netters ground Falcons What's Happening By PAUL DODD While many students were sleeping off their Friday night party after- shocks, the women's tennis team was blanking Bowling Green early Satur- day morning, 9-0, at the Huron Valley Racquet Club. i For the most part, it was total domination again for the Wolverines, who have been playing some weaker teams in preparation for the Big Ten season. Michigan will not be getting into the conference schedule until the middle of April. IN THE MEANTIME, there are matches with the Eastern and Western Michigans of the world. The University of Toledo will provide the competition today at the Track and Tennis Building.

The only Wolverine singles player who met with any resistance was Monica Bor- cherst, who had to take a 7-1 tiebreaker to win in straight sets over Sarah Griffith. "It was only their second match of the. year and it showed," said WMichigan coach Bitsy Ritt. "We've played a few more matches and we'll play them again in April. They should be a lot better then." Doubles matches were as equally one-sided as the inidvidual matches were. Erin Ashare and Tricia Horn also won a tiebreaker, 7-1, to win the first set of a straight-set victory. Leslie Mackey continued her win- ning ways, chalking up her sixth vic- tory in the last seven outings with a 6- 3, 6-0 pasting of Linda Wick. Batsman split Special to the Daily LAKELAND, Fla. - It did not take long for the Michigan baseball team to have a worse record than it did at this time last year.
