For those of you who could not find a ticket
for Saturday night's Michigan-Michigan State
hockey game at Yost Ice Arena you missed a
classic. Both goaltenders, the Spartans' Bob
Essensa and the Wolverines' Warren Sharples,
controlled the game and the Spartans outmuscled
the Wolverines to win 2-1.
"That was a real good college hockey game,"
Michigan State coach Ron Mason said. "Tonight
the interest was there and the crowd was there."
"When you see a college hockey game end up
in a 2-1 score you know the goaltenders played
well," said Michigan coach Red Berenson.
"Tonight there were no soft goals."
The game was like a tough boxing match (as
if people don't already get the two sports
confused). The lightly regarded welterweight

Wolverines.
Then, in the second period, the home team
flurried and finally buried one past the tough
Spartan netminder. The scoreboard read Spartans
2, Wolverines 1.
Both teams exchanged glancing blows in the
third period but nothing damaging, and the
Spartans held on for the 2-1 victory.

Sharples and Essensa did a good job of
making Saturday night's game look like a boring
defensive affair. Both teams, however, generated
plenty of scoring chances in an action packed
game. Sharples saved 31 and Essensa 30.

Men, women sin]
By MARC C. PARRISH
- Maintaining their perfect records,
the Michigan men's and women's
swimming teams both romped over
the weekend. The men's team
traveled to The Purdue Invitational
and dominated the two-day meet
which featured four other Big Ten
schools (Purdue, Ohio State,
Indiana, and Michigan State). The
women swept a home meet against
Wisconsin and Indiana.
The men's team (9-0) racked up
806 points to beat second-place
Indiana by 125 points.
Strong overall performances
were given by Wolverines Dave
Kerska, Dan Dewhirst, and Martin
Moran.
KERSKA WON two events,
the 100-yard free (45.28) and 200-
yard free (1:40.65), and gave a
season's best performance in the
500-yard free placing second with a
time of 4:32.11. The team captain
also swam the fastest time of the
meet in the 50-yard free (20.99),
but was entered as an exhibition,
and therefore scored no points.
Dewhirst swam three season-best
times at the competition, placing
second in the 400-yard individual
medley (4:04.20), third in the 200
breastroke (2:07.24), and third in
the 100 breastroke (59.97). He also
gave a strong performance ir the
200-yard individual medley
(1:56.25).
Moran proved once.again that he
is the odds-on favorite to dominate
the Big Ten conference meet in the
butterfly events by winning the 100
and 200-yard distances in times of
50.69 and 1:50.06, respectively.
Another notable of the meet was
Jan-Erick Olsen. Olsen won the
200-yard breastroke (2:03.40), and
placed second in the 100 breastroke
(58.37) as well as the 200-yard
individual medley (1:54.34).
Michigan coach Jon Urbanchek
was not convinced that the meet
k Big T
was a preview of the Big Ten
championships in five weeks. "This
meet was more of an indication of
where each team is at the moment,"
said Urbanchek. "I think that we'll
get a lot of good swims from the
Iowa and Indiana teams at the
conference meet."
THE WISCONSIN and
Illinois women's swimming
coaches, though, picked their
Michigan rivals as the Big Ten
favorite after the Wolverines
defeated the Badgers 71-42 and
Hoosiers 74-39 Saturday. The
women's team ran its record to 8-0
with the wins.
"Michigan has the best team in
the Big Ten," said Wisconsin coach
Carl Johansson. "They've got the
most depth and the most good
swimmers. If they swim OK at the
conference meet, they'll win. If
they swim well they'll win by a
lot. All they have to do is keep
healthy."
n rivals
Highlighting the performances
of the women's meet was
Michigan's Candice Quinn, who
won the 200-yard breastroke in
2:22.68. Quinn cut two seconds off
of her previous best time in that
event. She also had a career best in
the 200-yard individual medley
(2:10.65) in which she finished
third.
