The Michigan Daily-Tuesday, January 12, 1988-Page9 Red t By STEVEN COHEN Wrestling at a meet with 56 of the top 80 wrestlers in the country without your two best wrestlers is hardly an ideal situation for any team. Michigan's wrestling team was in just such a predicament when it kame time for the Virginia Duels on Uanuary 1 and 2 in Hampton Vir- i ia. The Virginia Duels featured many bf the top wrestling teams in the country and allowed each team a thance to wrestle their entire squad. After completing a tough early season schedule, Michigan head poach Dale Bahr entered the top notch competition expecting to have the Services of his two All American calibre wrestlers, William Waters and Sam Amine. Said Bahr, 'They were ready to go and we were ready to use "them." But both did not wrestle. THE ABSENCE of Amine, the brother of 167 pounder Mike Amine, proved more costly than the loss of Waters. In order to be eligible for the ;meet, Sam Amine needed to have all of the paperwork involved in his transfer from Washtenaw Commu- nity College sorted out prior to the competition. But due to the Christ- Imas vacation the paperwork was not completed, and Amine was ruled ineligible. ape pins SPORTS OF THE DAILY grapplers Amine was expected to take the place of 150-pounder Zac Pease who injured his knee at the Midlands in Chicago and is out for the season. He wrestled well at that meet. Amine had a 158-6 record in high school. Waters, a 118 pounder, was ex- pected to return after taking last sea- son off, but like Amine was the vic- tim of a bureaucratic mix up involv- ing his credits and had to stay in Ann Arbor. In previous seasons, Waters finished second and third in the Big Ten championships. Both Amine and Waters will be eligible for Friday's match at home against Illinois. In the first match at the Vir- ginia Duals, Michigan faced ninth- ranked Oklahoma. Michigan had to forfeit the 150-pound class because of Amine's absence. That forfeit proved to be the difference as Oklahoma won 20-15. If not for the six points awarded to Oklahoma for the forfeit, Michigan would have won 15-14. OKLAHOMA didn't win a match until the 167-pound weight class when Mike Amine lost 3-2 after los- ing a point for unnecessary rough- ness. Bob Petokar narrowly lost in the heavyweight class to the ninth- ranked wrestler in the nation. Michigan next faced Brigham Young University and slaughtered it, 34-10. The Cougars didn't win a match but earned points on two draws and a forfeit. The Wolverines then faced Wis- consin and again a forfeit proved to be the margin of victory. Despite losing to the Badgers, John Fisher, ranked second in the country in the 134 pound class, performed well for the Wolverines. Although Michigan was knocked out of the tournament, Bahr was proud of the effort his wrestlers gave and is optimistic for the re- mainder of the season season. "WE WERE disappointed be- cause we feel that we are one of the top four or five teams in the coun- try," said Bahr. "Though we were going out there minus one person compared to everybody else we didn't back down. The kids did in fact wrestle as good as I have seen them all year. "We feel that we can go through the rest of our season undefeated. We aren't going to have a weak link in the lineup. We will have 10 tough kids out there." Mixed reviews for opener The 1988 men's and women's gymnastics squads opened their in tou season with mixed results. The women tumblers came back to defeat Eastern Michigan 173.95-172.5 at Ypsilanti, while the men were beaten soundly by Ohio State 280.5 - 252.8 at Columbus. "We had a few mistakes and therefore it was a close meet," said Michigan women's head coach Dana Kempthorn. "It shouldn't have been a close meet, but it was." After the vault and bars competi- tion ended, the women found them- selves trailing the Hurons. They, however, came back in the beam and floor exercise. "The kids really pulled together as a team on beam and floor," said Kempthorn. "It was a good warm-up meet, and it gave us confidence as we head to Missouri for next weekend." Angela Williams led Michigan's rney comeback by placing first in the all- around competition with a score of 35.70. Teammates Janne Klepek placed second, while Amy Meyer came in third. Williams also placed first in the vault and floor competi- tions, scoring a 9.2 and 9.25. Klepek captured a first on the bars with a 9.2 while Meyer won the beam competition with a 9.15. The men did not fare as well in their opening match. "We stumbled a bit," said Wolverine head coach Bob Darden. "One contributing factor is we had a very extremely physical week in the gym last week, and that seemed to cause problems in stamina." Scott Moore's performance in the floor exercises was the lone bright spot for the Wolverines. Moore came in second place with a 9.65. -By STEVE GINNS 'We feel that we can go through the rest of our season undefeated. We aren't going to have a weak link in the lineup.
