' °'Trouble is that in the topsy-turvy world of the SCHA, there's no such thing as a sure thing. The SBckeyes proved this by upending Michigan with a 4-4 overtime tie on Friday night and a hard-fought 2-1 win di ',Saturday night, raising their record to 2-7-1. Michigan is 7-3-2. ?¢"We didn't have any reason to be overconfident but we wbre," said Michigan captain Todd Brost. "We thought we could put our jerseys on, step on the ice and win. It doesn't work like that in this league. All the teams are tldx good." ,OHIO STATE coach Jerry Welsh said: "If you look 4 our team the way we do, you wouldn't describe us as a 1-7 team going in. We match up well with Michigan. Comparative standings weren't on our mind." 1A closer inspection of the two teams showed that this would be anything but a cakewalk for the Wolverines. Last year the two teams split their season series with egch winning one at home. Ohio State leads the overall series with a 15-13-1 mark since 1963. "This is not a surprise," said Michigan coach Red Brenson. "They play hard against us every year. We don't, seem to be able to do what it takes to beat that team the way we should. We didn't play the kind of hockey that's won games for us offensively or ifensively." o Inconsistency at home has been a problem that has plagued the Wolverines all season.

IN MICHIGAN'S first Saturday night loss this season, the Wolverines had their only lead of the weekend on a goal by leading-scorer Denny Felsner. The Buckeyes came storming back 33 seconds later to tie the score at one. Ohio State closed out the scoring late in the second period on a goal by their leading-scorer Andy Forcey. Michigan had numerous opportunities in the third period, but a combination of excellent goaltending by Ohio State's Todd Fanning and some unlucky bounces thwarted the Wolverine attack. "We had a lot of chances that just didn't go in for us tonight," said Michigan winger Rob Brown. "But you have to give them credit. They came in here and skated hard." On Friday night, however, the Wolverines were lucky to escape with a tie. "When we get breakdowns like we did tonight, it's tough for our team to win," said Berenson. "We go six periods in Ferris State and give up one goal, then give up two in the first period at home." Sophomore Kent Brothers scored the tying goal for Michigan with just under six minutes remaining Friday night. Each team had opportunities in the overtime session, but couldn't capitalize, and the game ended in a tie. "This has been a real learning process for us," said defenseman Mark Sorensen. "Maybe we jumped up to a spot where we shouldn't have been. I think this weekend put us in our place. Hopefully we can just keep going from here." ed by Badgers JESSICA GREENE/Doily Guard Tempie Brown passes to a teammate during Michigan's 82-73 victory over the University of Toronto Saturday night.

BY ADAM BENSON It was no trip into the Twilight Zone, but some strange things happened in Crisler Arena last Saturday night. The Michigan women's basketball team defeated the University of Toronto, 82-73. That was expected. The team leading scorers also stacked up as predicted. Forward Tanya Powell led Michigan with 18 points, followed by Lorea Feldman with 16, and Tempie Brown with 12. But from there on, all the key factors in the game were surprises. Backup center Mary Rosowski entered the game and scored 6 first-half points and added 6 rebounds to help inspire a tentative Michigan team. "MARY PLAYED well while Joan (Rieger, Michigan's starting center) was struggling," said Michigan coach Bud VanDeWege, "Mary came in and picked us up." Rosowski finished with 12 points, but she was not the only bench help for Michigan. Defensive specialist Leslie Spicer showed some scoring promise of her own by tossing in 10 points, while first-year guard Leah Woodridge hit two three-point shots. Yet with all the offensive firepower, Michigan's defense was the most important factor in the win. The Wolverines held Toronto scoreless in the last two minutes of the first half to open up a 41-29 lead. VanDeWege had stressed defense during the WQlverines' preseason workouts. On Saturday, the Wolverine defense was inconsistent. But when the Wolverines successfully executed on defense, the offense produced. "WE FOUND out that the game goes as well as our defense goes," said VanDeWege. "We stopped them and we got the transition game going. We had a couple of really nice breaks." Even with the bench and the strong defense, talk still centered around Brown and Feldman. "(Feldman) played awesome and (Brown) is an exceptional player," said Toronto coach Michelle Belanger.

Seven Wolverines are awaiting the sound of the gun to begin today's NCAA Championships in Ames, Iowa. Their daily workouts and perseverance have paid off. "Cross country is a team sport," said Erik Koskinen. "You just can't have a supporting cast. One or two' runners won't do it." Michigan's cast is led by Brad Barquist and John Scherer who are expected to guide the pack of Wolverine runners. Tony Carna and Jeff Barnett will have to maintain Michigan's momentum throughout the 10,000 meter course by staying with the middle of the field. Ryan Robinson will be running with a stress fracture, but last week he ran with pain to come in fifth for the Woverines. Koskinen and Karl Welke will be the team's insurance. "I'm just going to have to go out ther: a little harder," said Koskinen. "If Ryan falters, I'll just have to suck it up and go." "It's going to be a very mental race," said Robinson, "The high workouts condition you to mentally withstand the pain. We're strength runners. We're ready for anything."

Tomorrow, Foster, in her second year at the helm for Michigan, will lead the team as they go up against the 16 best teams in the nation in Des Moines, Iowa. The Wolverines gained an automatic bid to the national cham- pionships with their second place finish at last week's Midwestern regional meet. In cold, rainy con- ditions, they edged out third place Indiana by ten points with a score of 69. A RT( n at top ten Foster said that although she had' never seen the course at the championships, she has heard that the 3.1 mile course is a fast one. Foster added that a hillier course would have worked to Michigan's advantage. "We're more of a stregntfl oriented team," she said. 4 Graduate School of Architecture, Planning, and Preservation . ~4 CHEF JAN- TOP GOLD MEDAL WINNER JUDGES SPECIAL AWARD SPONSORED BY MICHIGAN RESTAURANT ASSOCIATION MICHIGAN CHEF'S DE CUISINE ASSOCIATION I *1 BEST CHEF AWARD WINNER IN WASHINGTON, D.C.
