Red seeks

win

over

Lake

By ADAM SCHEFTER
How many times have you heard
the expression, "defense wins
games?" Has it been more than
149, the number of goals that
Michigan has allowed this year?
Defense is the main reason why
Michigan is in seventh place in the
CCHA, and the statistics prove it.
Lake Superior, the Wolverines'
opponents this weekend, has
allowed 111 goals and is in third
place. First-place Bowling Green
and second-place Michigan State
have allowed 92 goals and 91 goals
respectively.
Opponents have scored 164
goals against Miami, and as one
would expect the Redskins are in
the CCHA basement. Defense will
do it every time.
DEFENSE is also the reason
that Michigan has split its last six
games. If the Wolverines hope to

M icers get defensive to try
to beat Lakers at own game

move up in the standings or to
make an impact in the playoffs,
they must continue to improve in
this area.
"Our overall pride in our
defensive game is starting to assert
itself," said Michigan head coach
Red Berenson. "A lot of losing
teams only worry about scoring
goals.
"When they find out how to
win, they realize that it is a team
game where everybody sacrifices
and everybody contributes."
This is a lesson that the
Michigan squad has learned since
Christmas vacation. The forwards'

'(This year) we won our
first game at Michigan
State since I've been here,
our first game at Ferris
State, and our first at
Western Michigan. I think
we are due to win at Lake
Superior.'

relentless forechecking has forced
opponents to cough up the puck in
their own zone, and the defensemen
have improved to offer much needed
assistance to freshman goaltender
Warren Sharples. Sharples has
rewarded his teammates for their
help by repeatedly making the big
saves.
AND AS coach Berenson said,
"Defense makes offense."
Michigan travels to Sault Saint
Marie with its new found
knowledge to face the Lakers (17-
10).
"We have not beaten Lake
Superior since I'vebbeen here,"
Berenson said. "They have won
games they should not have won,

and they have won games they
should have won. But this year
we've done a lot of firsts.
"We won our first game at
Michigan State since I've been
here, our first game at Ferris State,
and our first at Western Michigan. I
think we are due to win at Lake
Superior."
EASIER SAID than done,
though. The Lakers have none of
the league's leading scorers, but
their two goaltenders are among the
CCHA's top six.
Randy Exelby and Mike
Greenlay have come to the rescue
for an often injured Laker squad.
Exelby has started the last eight
games, and sports a 3.45 goals
against average and a .871 save
percentage.
"Exelby has played extremely
well, especially of late," said Lake
Superior head coach Frank
Anzalone. "He has been a positive
factor in the way the team has
maintained where they are."
But it has not been an easy task.
"We run into a lot of teams that
get exceptionally psyched up to
play us," Anzalone said. "Our
games are all very tough. Each
game that we play against another
team is a big series for them."
