Baseball vs. Eastern Michigan Saturday, 1 p.m. Ray Fisher Stadium SPORTS Basketball vs. North Carolina Thursday, 10 p.m. Rupp Arena The Michigan Daily Michigan bats .600 on spring 'vacation' Tuesday, March 21, 1989 Page 9 BY JAY MOSES There's nothing like a nice, relaxing trip to Florida to cure what 0 ails you. The Michigan baseball team can attest to that. The Wolverines' spring trip may not have been the most stress-free nine days of their lives, but they certainly accom- plished plenty, finishing 6-4 and winning the Rollins Invitational Toumament. Friday's extra-inning affair saw junior pitcher Ross Powell go seven innings and strike out seven, before he left trailing, 4-2. Junior John Locker went the remaining three innings, retiring nine of the ten men he faced for the victory. MICHIGAN finished off the trip by winning two of three games last weekend. Friday, the Wolverines defeated host Rollins College, 5-4 in ten innings, to clinch the tourn- ament championship. Saturday after- noon, they finished up the tourn- ament with an 11-6 loss to Portland State. Saturday night, they completed their trip with a last-minute addition to the schedule, beating defending Division III National Champion Ithaca College, 8-0, behind a no- hitter by junior Tim Lata. Sophomore Greg Haeger con- tinued to be a driving force behind the Wolverines' offensive attack, batting in two of the five Michigan runs and scoring two more. Haeger scored the winning run in the tenth inning on a wild pitch. In beating Rollins, Michigan secured its second consecutive championship in this tournament. The Wolverines, who won this year's tournament with a 4-2 record, emerged from Rollins victorious in 1985 as well. IN SATURDAY afternoon's loss to Portland State, junior Mike Grimes (0-1) started for Michigan and went 4 2/3 innings for the loss. The Portland State attack was highlighted by a four-run fifth in- ning and a three-run sixth. The Wolverines continued to show offensive potency, led by senior outfielder Jim Durham, who went 3-for-4 with three stolen bases. Chris Gagin and Dave Everly had two hits apiece, and infielder Andy Fairman was 2-for-2 with a two-run double. Saturday night's contest against Ithaca was highlighted by Lata's performance, the first no-hitter by a Michigan pitcher since 1985, when Jim Abbott and Scott Kamieniecki combined on one. Lata struck out nine in the seven-inning outing. For his performance Saturday and last Monday against Yale, he was named one of three Coppertone players of the week by Collegiate Baseball. JOSEJUAREZDa Michigan swimmers dive in during a meet earlier this season at the Canham Natatorium. The Wolverines finished sixth this weekend, at the NCAA championships, as Ann Colloton became the first Wolverine to win a national championship. Colloton swim. championship, L to national 'M' places sixth Women netters avenge losses BY JEFF SHERAN Back in October, the Michigan women's tennis team dropped two matches to Western Michigan and Eastern Michigan, 5-4, and 6-3, respectively. On the bus ride home, the team decided to set its primary goal on beating the two schools in their March rematches. This past weekend it was Western and Eastern who had unpleasant rides home as the Wolverines defeated them each by the score of 6-3. The difference, as Michigan coach Elizabeth Ritt explains, is the improvement in the doubles' performances. The former meetings saw Michigan concede 5 of 6 doubles matches, whereas last weekend, the team lost only one. "It's a great achievement to accomplish goals like these, especially when you see a definite improvement in one aspect of the team," Ritt said. The other bright spot for the team was Jennifer Lev. Lev, sidelined prior to last week with a back injury, returned Wednesday at sixth singles against Bowling Green. She won her match, and possibly the permanent sixth singles job, as the team slammed the Falcons, 8-1. "Having Lev back is a big boost," Ritt said. "You need more than six players for the number of matches we play. She and Frederika Adam (who previously held the sixth singles spot) will give us greater options." Men's tennis drops. to No. 17, as injury bug hits squad BY ERIC LEMONT To swim faster. It's a simple goal, but the only one that members of the Michigan women's swim team care to set for themselves. Last weekend at the NCAA Swimming and Diving championships in Indianapolis, Ann Colloton swam faster than the rest of the national field as she took first place in the 200-yard breaststroke. Michigan tied with UCLA for sixth place. overall. In winning the 200 breastroke, Colloton became the Wolverines' first ever national champion swimmer. "It was something I've been thinking about the last couple of months, especially the few days before the event," Colloton said. "So when it actually happened it was kind of anticlimatic. I really don't feel any different." Colloton had to work for the win, barely edging out Texas' Jill Johnson. In what Michigan head coach Jim Richardson described as a "thrilling race," Colloton came from behind to pull dead even with Johnson with 25 yards to go before nipping her at the finish. "I was just thinking 'this is the last 25 yards and I might as well kill myself'," Colloton said. Colloton finished with a time of 2 minutes 12.96 seconds, Johnson 2:13.11. Stanford won the overall team competition with 610.5 points while three time defending national champion Texas (547) finished second. Florida (536), Tennessee (258.5) and California- Berkeley (234) rounded out the top five. "I'm very pleased with our season," Richardson said. "We were able to finish in the top 10 and no northern school has been in the top 10 once. We've done it three years in a row." Gwen DeMaat set two school records at the meet as she finished 8th in the 1650 (16:21.32) and 13th in the 400 individual medley (4:14.29). DeMaat also came in 7th place in the 500 freestyle, breaking her own Big Ten rcecord with a time of 4:44.43. Richardson felt that DeMaat would have done better in the 400 I.M if she didn't have to swim in the 500 freestyle and 800 freestyle relay the day before. His primary goal for next season? Simple. To have his team swim faster. Beer for Peanuts Monday 1/2 Price Pizzas (Pizza for Peanuts, too) and $2.50 Pitchers. Tuesday Six Molson Canadians for only Six American Bucks.

BY ANDREW GOTTESMAN Michigan's injury-riddled men's tennis team dropped two close matches last weekend to Arkansas and West Virginia by the identical scores of 5-4. "We have really started to be plagued with injuries," head coach Brian Eisner said. Senior Mike Pizzutello, the number six singles player, was unable to make the trip to West Virginia due to tendinitis in his ankle and foot. Third singles player Dave Kass reinjured his shoulder against Arkansas in losing 6-4, 7-6. He did not compete the next day against the Mountaineers. In addition, Michigan's Malivai Washington, the No. 1 collegiate player in the country, played his first match since an injury three weeks ago. Washington dropped his first match to Arkansas' Mike Brown, the No. 2 player in the country, 6-2, 6- 3, but bounced back against Virginia's Joby Foley, 6-3, 6-3. "When we're playing those level of teams, you can't afford to play two players short," Eisner said. The injuries forced Eisner to move all his players up a spot. Along with making singles players compete above their usual level, "it weakens our doubles as well," Eisner said.
