Marie for a weekend series against Lake Superior State. Moes got an assist in last Saturday's 1-0 win over Illinois-Chicago. The Lakers hope to topple Michigan from first place in the CCHA. Blue spikers hope to scare foes by Peter Zellen Daily Hockey Writer This weekend, the Michigan hockey team (3-0-1) will try to convince everyone that they deserve to be in first place in the CCHA as they play Lake Superior State (3-1-0). The second place Lakers look to stop the Wolverines with exceptional defense. Sophomore goalie Brandon Reed's 2.30 goals against average is second best in the CCHA. Only Michigan's Warren Sharples is better at 2.18. "This is a defensive team," Michigan coach Red Berenson said. "They're a big, strong physical team that doesn't give you a lot of shots. I'll be surprised if they allow more than around 20 shots." Lake Superior, ranked second in the conference by the coaches poll in the pre-season, has had three tough games so far this season, two against Michigan State with one overtime victory and a difficult sweep of Bowling Green. " Laker coach Frank Anzalone anticipates the same Michigan squad he thought so highly of to start the season. "I expect we'll have to be ready. I ranked them number one in my coaches poll and we'll treat them as such," the eighth-year coach said. Michigan has gotten off to one of its best starts this season and it has taken an emotional effect on the squad in both a positive and negative manner. "The team has proved some things to themselves and they have high expectations for themselves," Berenson said. "Last weekend (a sweep of Illinois-Chicago)-is behind us now and it's been a tough week in school. Right now the team is getting a little tense. This series is a big test." While there isn't a coach in the world who wouldn't want a sweep for his team, Berenson realizes the difficulty in this task going into Sault Ste. Marie. Presently, a good situation for Michigan would be a split. Berenson said he would like to take the first game of the series in order to give the Wolverines a chance on Saturday night. This two-game series does promise to be a showcase of talented teams, playing hockey that pleases pleased both coaches. This the kind of matchup both staffs look forward to the contest and to what it will bring from their squads. "This will be a good test for our team. We're playing fairly well and we're getting more defense," Anzalone said. Berenson has also been impressed with this year's Wolverines. "For this time of year we're playing well. Our work ethic has been excellent and we're winning close games on the road. The team effort has been good," Berenson. Will Anzalone plan any changes when facing the Michigan? "We'll have to get off to a better start mentally and we'll be more intense. Our players up front can't miss too many chances," the Laker coach said. This series will prove something about the Michigan team and Berenson knows it. "This team will improve as the year goes on but it's how we put those improvements into games." "The Lakers will play us tough and take away our skaters," Berenson said. "They don't make mistakes so they'll make it tough for us." The Wolverines appear ready for that tough series. by Theodore Cox Daily Sports Writer The Michigan women's volley- ball team is hoping for an early Halloween treat this weekend by at- tempting the trick of defeating either Minnesota or Iowa at Varsity Arena. Michigan remains winless in the Big Ten at 0-9, whereas the Gophers are atop the conference with Iowa not far behind. Despite the Wolverines' disap- pointing season, the squad has no intention of giving up on this season. "The attitude on this team is comeback, and comeback harder and fight harder," said coach Joyce Davis. "Nobody on this team has given up. Nobody on this team feels like they can't do it and I will eliminate any sources that could fuel any lack of confidence." The team has good reason to look positively towards this weekend. Historically, some of the squad's best play has been against these two rivals. The lone Wolverine con- ference win last season came against Iowa. In addition, Michigan took the Hawkeyes to five games in Iowa City, and then took the Gophers to four games in Minneapolis before losing to both earlier in the season. Besides, the biggest Wolverine downfall has been their own play. Serving and receiving errors have plagued the team all season. "We've had times where we have played well and we've been in position to win the match and due to our own errors, we haven't been able to take advantage of the oppor- tunities that we've created for our- selves," Davis said. Michigan's game plan against Minnesota consists of driving the ball toward the Gopher's setter, Sharon Oesterling. The object is to force Oesterling to handle the first ball so she won't be able to run the offense. Trying to slow down the Gopher offense will be Michigan's hardest task. "Their offense is the fastest of anybody's in the conference," Davis said. "If they are able to execute their offense, we are going to have difficulty defensively." Against Iowa, Michigan will focus on Kari Hamel and Barb Willis. If those two spikers are blocked out of the Hawkeye offense, a Wolverine victory should be forth- coming. First-year students Michelle Horr- igan and Hayley Lorenzen will re- ceive more playing time this week- end. And if Michigan's backcourt begins to falter as it has in the past, expect to see Heather Wells and Jennifer Paulson enter the line-up. Board: Womei by Matt Rennie Daily Sports Writer I's sports still A report accusing the athletic department of failing to support women's athletics was presented to the Board in Control of Inter- collegiate Athletics at last night's meeting. The Committee on Women's Athletics compiled the report, which listed nine areas of concern and recommendations. Beth Reed, who The University of Michigan SCHOOL OF MUSIC Sat. Oct. 28 Sun.

SPECIAL NOTE Calendar for the Winter Term 1990 As Announced in the Final Fall Term Time Schedule Ann Arbor Campus chairs the committee, presented the report before the board. The report repeatedly attacked the job the athletic department has been doing to promote women's sports. Under the heading Sports Infor- mation and Public Relations, the report says, "Much more attention is needed here...e.g., media guides, TV spots, use of cheerleaders and band, promotional weeks, and others." The committee feels these mea- sures would improve attendance at events and consequently generate more revenue for the program, but Michigan's assistant athletic director in charge of public relations dis- agrees. "They did that despite the fact we have more volleyball on television than before, record crowds for volley- ball and women's basketball, we have upgraded their media guides, programs, and press releases, and we've had individuals travel with the team," Bruce Madej said. "It's amazing because nobody ever asked me one of those questions." lag behind The report goes on to say that inequity is also present in other areas, the most serious example being access to proper health care. The report says, "Currently, women's teams appear to have less access to certified trainers and to physicians than do many of the men's teams." Reed told the committee, "It is unconscionable that health and safety standards should differ for women and men." Among the committee's demands is the clustering of all women sports' administrative personnel in a central location. Associate athletic director Jack' Weidenbach, who presided over the meeting, acknowledged some differ- ences he has with the committee. "I believe in total integration. When you have separate buildings (for men and women), I think that makes it; seem like 'us and them."' The report labeled the attitude and values of the athletic department as "outdated." of All events free unless specified. Wheelchair accessible.
