Grid scrimmage
lulls fans, pleases Bo
By MARK BOROWSKY
One man's junk is another man's
art.
Boring football scrimmages don't
make most fans' weekends
aesthetically pleasing, but they do
make Michigan head coach Bo
Schembechler happy. In the 18-13 win
by the White over the Blue squad,
there were solid performances, no
domination by one side, and, as
Schembechler cheerfully noted, no in-
juries. Which, to Schembechler, is a
mighty pretty picture.
"I DON'T think that we got anybody
seriously hurt," the Wolverine head
man said after Saturday's scrim-
mage. "So it was a great, great spring
game."
Perhaps Schembechler saw it as
"great" but with six field goals ac-
counting for most of the scoring,
"great" wasn't synonymous with "en-
tertaining." Pat Moons of the White
squad hit field goals of 34, 27, 25, and
25 yards while Rick Sutkiewicz nailed
two form the 32 and 24.
While the game left Schembechler
grinning, the artfulness of the per-
formances of quarterback Jim Har-
baugh and tailback Jamie Morris
couldn't have left him upset, either.
Harbaugh threw for 155 yards on 13-
for-19 passing in a losing cause, and
Morris ran for 110 yards on 24 carries.
OUTSIDE OF Morris' trademark
bouncing-off-tackle runs and Har-
baugh's three-yard touchdown pass to
tight-end Keith Mitchell, offensively
there weren't many reasons to run out
and buy 1987 Rose Bowl tickets. Which
suits Schembechler fine, who hardly
views the scrimmage as an
evaluation.
"You can't tell anything from this
(game)," he said, making note that
the squads were split evenly.

"There's no units on either side. If
you're talking about looking at
whether you have an offense or a
defense, you can't tell there."
Harbaugh feels that once it starts
playing this fall, the offense will be a
thing of beauty.
"Offensively, I think that we have
the potential to score every time we
get the ball," said last year's top-
rated passer in the nation. "That's our
goal... we're not looking to go a couple
of series and then punt."
MICHIGAN'S opponents have the
same goal, but they may find the
going a bit tougher. If the spring game
means anything, Michigan's defense
will be nice to look at but tough in-
deed. Despite the losses of five star-
ters- including All-Americans Mike
Hammerstein and Brad Cochran-the
defense could be as good as last year's
squad. Andree McIntyre, who is com-
peting for one of the five open spots,
led all tacklers with 13 from his spot
at outside linebacker. Despite the
defensive domination of the scrim-
mage, Schembechler still sees work
ahead.
"On defense, I couldn't tell you for
sure who is going to start on those
positions the first game next fall,"
Schembechler said. "I don't think that
we have definitely come out of spring
with all the positions manned on the
first unit."
One player who is definitely man-
ning a position is cornerback Garland
Rivers, who will be entering his senior
year this fall. The Canton, Ohio native
is a possible pre-season All-American
pick and will anchor a defensive back-
field that could feature four seniors.
Like the intrasquad scrimmage itself,
Rivers views his spring practice as
unspectacular, but not indicative.
"I THOUGHT I played pretty good,
but I really didn't have a great spring I
like I did the last two Years," he said.
"This spring I just tried to get to my
technique."
Apparently he did get to his
technique, as evidenced by his
second-quarter interception of Har-
baugh. Rivers backpedaled and snat-
ched Harbaugh's pass at the 25-yard
line to stuff a Blue drive late in the
half.
With the number of players (over
90) suited up, there were some new
faces that made an impact in the
game. Junior Ken Higgins made
several nice catches at split end, and
flanker Gene Lawson played well.
Schembechler said that both could see
time backing up starters Paul Jokisch
and John Kolesar, respectively.
Even with a healthy and productive
spring, Schemechler still sees reasons
to be concerned. With the defensive
holes, no established tight end, and an
offensive line that isn't very deep,
Schembechler can't be thrilled en-
tirely.
But nothing is definite until the fall.
That's when offensive and defensive
units play together, and mesh into
something resembling a football
team. Without a doubt, it should be
nobody's junk and everyone's
art-especially Schembechler's.

MILWAUKEE (AP)-Dave Win-
field's double and a pair of
throwing errors on Mike Easler's
ground ball in the 10th inning
yesterday lifted the New York
Yankees to a 5-4 victory over the
Milwaukee Brewers.
Winfield opened the 10th with a
double off the left-field wall again-
st Mark Clear (0-1).
EASLER FOLLOWED with a
grounder that first baseman Robin
Yount fielded, but threw past Clear
covering the bag for an error.
Clear picked up the ball in foul
territory but Winfield crossed the
inings,5-4
plate as Clear threw wildly to the
plate.
Dave Righetti (2-0), who gave up
Ernest Riles' tying RBI single with
two outs in the ninth, worked the
final two innings for the victory.
The Yankees broke a three-game
losing streak.
New York starter Joe Niekro
took a two-hitter and a 4-1 lead into
the eighth, but left after leadoff
singles by Billy Jo Robidoux and
Riles and one-out, run-scoring
single by Jim Ganter.

Stroking to first-place finishes in all
but two races the Michigan rowing
club easily out-muscled the four
visiting clubs Saturday at Gallup
Park.
Racing against Michigan State,
Notre Dame, Grand Valley State
College, and the Detroit Boat Club,
the Wolverines shined in the 2000
meter events. The men's varsity eight
encountered the closest race of the
day against the Detroit Club, but
managed to pull off the win by a foot.
Looking unusually strong, the
women's varsity eight and varsity
four also hammered out wins with the
closest opponents more than a full
boat length away.
The novice crew was equally vic-
torious for the day, dropping their
only race in the women's novice four
category.
The clubwill move to Wisconsin this
weekend to face the toughest com-
petition of the year in the Midwest
Rowing Championships.
