First baseman Greg Haeger has provided plenty of offensive punch for the Wolverines this spring (.330 batting average, 22 RBIs). The
rookie can also pitch and may be called upon to breathe some new life into a tired Michigan pitching staff today against Ferris State.

Hurlers must pitch in aga

By RICHARD EISEN
The Michigan baseball pitching staff is one
exhausted bunch.
In last weekend's four games against
Minnesota, of which the Wolverines won three,
Michigan coach Bud Middaugh used seven
different pitchers, using a variety of them twice.
This means that Michigan is short pitchers going
into today's game against Ferris State.
"I can't really do anything about (the
shortage)," said Middaugh. "We're probably
going to have to throw some people who you
haven't seen yet."
HENCE, Middaugh will pick from a few
pitchers whose main job is usually to mop up in
the late innings or to hose down the field in
between games of a doubleheader. With these
hurlers, one never knows whether the game will
be under control or will end up a carnival.
Therefore, in the carnival spirit, Bud will spin
the pitcher wheel and come up with a decision of
whom to pitch.

Round and round she goes...
And the wheel stops on sophomore pitcher
John Locker, whom Michigan fans have seen
before. Locker, who started one game and relieved
in another, is 0-1 with a 2.25 ERA.
MIDDAUGH might spin the wheel again,
and this time it could stop on another sophomore
pitcher, Rick Leonard. Leonard has yet to pitch
in a game this year and was 1-0 with a 9.00 ERA
last year.
"You also could possibly see Kirt Ojala," said
ringmaster Middaugh. "Maybe you might see
(Greg) Haeger throw."
The wheel could yield the rookie Ojala his
first collegiate start. Ojala, a graduate from
Portage Central, had two no-hitters in high
school along with a streak of 15.7 innings
without allowing a hit.
Middaugh could win a stuffed Wolverine if his
wheel stops on the rookie first baseman Haeger.
First baseman? Haeger, who is knocking the
cover off the ball with a .330 average 2 HR and

inst Bulldogs
22 RBI, can also throw the cover off the ball. In
his senior year of high school, he had a 9-4
record and a clean 2.00 ERA.
ALL THIS will happen under the Big Top
called Ray Fisher Stadium today at 2 p.m.
against a Division II school, the Ferris State
Bulldogs. The Bulldogs, managed by fifth-year
coach Judd Folske, are 9-15-1 so far and lead the
Great Lakes Conference with a 3-1 record.
The Bulldogs came to Ann Arbor last year and
split a pair with the Wolverines, winning the
nightcap, 7-2.
The Bulldogs strongman is senior catcher
John Faccio, who leads Ferris State in most
offensive categories including average (.342),
home runs (four) and runs batted in (19).
The Bulldogs pitching situation is just as
muddled as Michigan's, with most of the pitchers
making the trip to Ann Arbor from Big Rapids.
But one set Bulldog pitching position is today's
first starter, rookie Brian Williams. Williams is
1-1 with a 3.00 ERA so far this year.

Lacrosse team takes two

By BETHANY KLIPEC
The Michigan men's lacrosse
team boosted its record to 11-2 with
victories over Purdue and Toledo last
weekend.
In Saturday's game, Michigan
pounded the Boilermakers, 10-4. At-
tackers Mike Kennedy and Mike Carr
scored three goals each in the win.
"The score doesn't reflect it, but we
had a bit of a struggle with Purdue
this year," noted Michigan coach Bob
DiGiovanni. "They're quite im-
proved."
Sunday afternoon, the Wolverines
grounded, Toledo, 8-2. Backups Dave
Fitzpatrick and Andy Billelo provided

strong goaltending, and six different
players notched goals.
"Beyond the victories, the weekend
games helped us practice some new
strategies to use against Michigan
State," remarked Bob Digiovanni.
Michigan faces the Spartans
Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. at Tartan
Turf.
Starting goalie and captain Rob
Digiovanni assessed: "It's going to
come down to fundamentals. Being a
varsity squad, skill-wise they're go-
ing to be a little bit stronger. Every-
one on the Michigan team is really
going to have to pull his own weight
to make it a close contest."
