Page 8 - The Michigan Daily - Tuesday, March 14, 1989 Basketball Blue Banter Insider'S exit BY ADAM SCHRAGER Possibly in response to the criticism surrounding its non- conference schedule this season, the Michigan basketball team has added perennial powerhouse Duke and Big 8 contender Iowa State to its December Crisler Arena schedule. "Since we were not playing in a tough pre-season tournament, we had to add teams of this caliber to our sche-dule," Michigan coach Bill Frieder said. "It's going to be good to get Johnny (Orr) back on the Crisler Arena court and it's always good to play a school with the academic and athletic tradition like Duke." Orr, who coached at Michigan from 1968 to 1980 before departing for Iowa State, beat his successor in the 1986 NCAA Tournament. Frieder was hired by Orr in 1973 as an assistant and became the Wolverines' head coach upon Orr's departure. Iowa State is scheduled for Dec. 2 and Duke for Dec. 9. Michigan will go to those schools during the 1990- 91 season as part of the home-and- home contract. Michigan also plays North Carolina State on the road next season, with a return arrangement set for 1990. -While Michigan's three seniors (Glen Rice, Mark Hughes, and J.P. Oosterbaan) lost their final home game to Illinois last Saturday, they have won their fair share of games in their Wolverine tenure. The trio has recorded a total of 98 wins in their four years, two victories shy of the team-record for wins in a four-year span. That record was set in 1987-88 when the Wolverines tallied 26 wins to give Gary Grant and Steve Stoyko 100 victories for their careers. "This doesn't detract from a great four years that they had here,' Michigan coach Bill Frieder said after Saturday's loss. "We've gotten them 98 victories and we want to get it to 100 in the tournament." -Rice, who is second on the all- time Michigan scoring list, has been flocked with post-season honors. He was named the United Press International Big Ten Player-of-the- Year and lost the Asso-ciated Press Big Ten Player-of-the-Year balloting by one vote. He also was placed on Basketball Weekly's second-team All-America. -In other honors, guard Rumeal Robinson was voted onto the AP All-Big Ten third team with teammate Loy Vaught. Both Robinson and Vaught received UPI All-Big Ten honorable mention. Rosowski* leaves vivid impression on 'M' fans 4, ALL YOU CAN EAT PIZZA Tuesday & Wednesday $3.75 6-9 CORNER OF 99 .. ALL YOU CAN EAT SPAGHETTI Michigan forward Mary Rosowski ended her college basketball career last Saturday night, but she will be well remembered by fans and teamates. DINNER Sunday &$4.50 5-9 Good Times do come cheap Monday. A large Pitcher of Beer for $2.50 lhesday. Be happy. $2.50 for a Long Island Ice Tea BY ADAM BENSON With six minutes left in the first half of last Saturday's win over Minnesota, Mary Rosowski scored the last two points of her collegiate basketball career. There was nothing particular about the basket. It didn't come at a crucial time, nor was it special looking. It really was just another two points, no different from the other 102 she scored while playing at Michigan. Rosowski is the only player out of Michigan's top eight leaving the team. This season, Rosowski was a valuable backup, who provided rest for inside players Joan Rieger and Val Hall. Her improved play earned her co-honors as the team's Most Improved Player, along with Rieger. But the most memorable things about Rosowski are her hard and painful-looking spills onto the court after she ventures into the middle, battling the Big Ten's biggest and best for rebounds. "IT PROBABLY LOOKS a lot worse than it sounds," Rosowski said about her thunderous thuds to the Crisler hardwood. "I do go down hard. Sometimes I wish I was made of rubber, so I'd just bounce back." That is how Rosowski will be remembered by the fans who made it to Crisler to see the women's team play. But others will remember her for more than just her impact on the floor. Recruited out of Our Lady of Mercy High School in Farmington, Ros- owski came to Michigan a high school honorable mention All-American and all-state selection. Signing on as Michigan coach Bud VanDeWege's first recruit, Rosowski gave the new coach some much needed credibility. "Mary has been someone who has given a great deal to the program," VanDeWege said. "She is someone I feel very special about. To comeback from what she has had to deal with is remarkable." The comeback the coach talks about refers to Rosowski's many knee problems. Before she ever played a game at Michigan, Rosowski tore up her knee. After going through a year of rehabilitation, she reinjured the knee. By her junior year, Rosowski had played in only parts of three games, and had never scored. Rosowski's career was not as great as it could have been. Give her a good knee for four years, and maybe she'd leave with 1,004 points, instead of 104. "I FEEL LIKE I HAVEN'T hit my peak yet. If I had another month to go I could pour it on," Rosowski said. "But my knee has been giving me a lot of problems lately. I wanted to finish in one piece. I'm ready for (basketball) to end, but I know I'll miss it." While replacing her scoring will not be hard, she will be missed as a person. "She's been a great roommate," Hall said about her friend and for- mer backup. "I've thoroughly enjoyed everything with her, all year long, and I hope we continue it." Rosowski may be "retiring" from basketball, but she still has a lot to do. She will continue to make points, only now she'll make them in the classroom. Not in front of fans and family, but in front of elementary school students. "You see teaching qualities in her coming out everyday in practice," Hall said. "I'm so happy for her. She is going onto a career that she is so excited for." Next year her voice will reverberate around the classroom, but the ech- oes from her Michigan days will be heard around Crisler for some time.
