Friday, September 15, 1985 Team looks to improve on impressive 4-1 start Spikers face twin bill in OhioF by Jamie Burgess Daily Sports Writer The Wolverine spikers play an unusual slate this weekend - two different opponents in the same city. The team carries its 4-1 record into Bowling Green on Friday evening against the Falcons, and then faces West Virginia on Saturday, also in Bowling Green. It seems that this year's Wolverines may finally be starting to lift their program from its three-year sag. Coach Joyce Davis has high expectations. "It's a totally different team. We have five brand new people - that's almost half a team. They are a lot more aggressive, persistent, they communicate better.And we've added a backcourt attack, which is The new talent that Davis is counting on is already working its way into the line-up. Joining seniors Kim Clover, Carla Hunter, and Karen Marshall on the floor will be freshmen Hayley Lorenzen and Tarnisha Thompson, both of whom will be called upon to contribute all season. Fellow newcomer Michelle McKim has been so impressive in practice that she is already penned-in for the Saturday start against West Virginia. The pressures to perform on these new Wolverines are numerous, but not negative. "I'm just trying to get into the swing of college ball," says freshman Michelle Horrigan from Notre Dame Academy in Toledo. "I've heard there's a lot more team morale this year. We're going to do a lot better because of the excitement." This optimism comes despite the questionable status of sophomore Jennifer Paulson. A knee injury kept her from posting any statistics last year. Although her mobility has improved, Davis says that she is not yet at full strength. As for their opposition, the Wolverines face two distinct challenges. Davis has warned her squad about the Falcons, a powerful group of hitters, who despite their 2 - 6 record are a threat to make a slower team eat the ball. West Virginia, however, was not on the schedule last year and therefore offers an element of surprise for Michigan to contend with. "They're very young and scrappy on defense," says Davis, who knows little of the team herself. "But I don't think they'll run as quick an offense." rt Regardless of what they see in Bowling Green, the Wolverines have something to prove. Women runners head into season minus their three main cogs Eght year old Kent Morris looks at the Heisman Trophy and the year old Domino's Pizza American Football Coach's Association Coaches Choice Award. The two are among several trophies on display today and tdmorrow at the Traveling College Football Hall of Fame Exhibit at Domino's Farms. Deck the Hall with college football lv Jeff Sheran By Taylor Lincoln Daily Sports Editor The women's cross-country team will venture westward to Kansas this weekend to open its 1989 season. But the team will be travelling light. They will send only two runners with significant varsity NCAA experience. As they begin their campaign to improve on last year's surprising 3rd place finish in the Big Ten, they will be without three of their top runners, Mindy Rowand, Kelly McClimon, and Kim Haluscsak, who are all out with injuries. "I think it will be a very challenging meet considering who we're taking. Jen Mc Peck and Karen Wielke are running real strong right now and I think we can win if we can getthree of the rookies up there along with them," said coach Sue Foster. Mc Peck, the only experienced runner besides Wielke making the trip, was cautiously optimistic heading into the meet. "It's kind of scary with our top three runners out. So there's a lot of pressure on our freshmen and other relatively inexperienced people. Aside from the team's current injury problems, the outlook for the: '89 campaign is optimistic. Foster does not consider the injurids serious, and says that the team is hoping to improve to either first or second at this year's Big Ten meet. 0 eATTENTION: gp q M-Care HMO aily Sports Writer The U.S.F.& G. College Football Hall of Fame, a mobile C~hibit of college football's finest rhemories, is in Ann Arbor. It will be open today from 8 a.m. 6 p.m. at Domino's Farms, and morrow from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., 4i the Ann Arbor Golf and Outing Club. The indoor/outdoor exhibit, loused in a forty-foot long kcreational vehicle, features such miemorabilia as the Heisman Tro- y, a recreation of the locker room 4ene where Knute Rockne delivered lis legendary 'Gipper' speech, Hall df Fame enshrinees, biographies, ideos and other displays. * The traveling museum began its nationwide odyssey in East Ruther- flrd, N.J., site of the College Foot- l*1 Kickoff Classic. It will conclude toe first leg of the tour on January 1, the Sugar Bowl in New Orleans. Exclusively showcased at the ehibit is the Coach's Choice trophy f r the most outstanding collegiate fotball player of the year. The award was presented for the Qrst time last year to four players: Ijeisman winner .Barry Sanders. Marshall University's Mike Barber, Johnny Bailey of Texas A&I, and Wagner College's Terry Underwood. The fact that several students from schools of diverse sizes received the 1988 Coach's Choice Trophy is one of the cornerstones of the award. It enables athletes from less publicized football programs to receive equal recognition. Another staple of the Heisman rival is that the honorees are selected by balloting from 3,300 coaches na- tionwide as opposed to the Heisman Trophy, which is selectedbythe media. The award was originally conceived by Domino's Pizza owner Tom Monaghan and Michigan football coach Bo Schembechler. "We look for the Coach's Choice to be the premier award in college football," Schembechler said. "What's unique about it is that it is voted on by the people who are most qualified to judge - the coaches. We won't be influenced by hype or promotion," he added. The presentation of the 1989 trophy will take place November 30 in Detroit. Says Monaghan, "We're excited about hosting the second year of the Coach's Choice. It's just an extension of company policy to support collegiate athletics across the country." Dan Weber, the executive co- ordinator of the exhibit, will present a plaque honoring Michigan's 24 alumni enshrined in the Hall of Fame during a pregame ceremony. 0 " " 0 " i* participants- We are your * neighborhood pharmacyl 00. m 11 12S.
