The only thing that didn't go according to plan was the Michigan defense's performance against Heisman Trophy candidate Anthony Thompson: it was better than expected. "He's an exceptionally fine (tail)back," Michigan coach Bo Schembechler said. "I told (the defense) if we held him to four yards a carry, we would win the game." Michigan's defense, which still has not allowed any running back to rush for more than 100 yards against them this season, held Thompson to only 3.0 yards per carry. He eventually tied the record for NCAA career rushing touchdowns by scoring one off the Wolverines' second string players early in the fourth quarter. "Not even the Heisman Trophy could have run through our defense today," safety Tripp Welborne said. Throughout the afternoon, Thompson rarely saw the light at the other end of the line of scrimmage, gaining only 90 yards on the ground. Before Saturday's contest, with the media hyping the heck out of him for the Heisman, Thompson had averaged 160.8 rushing yards a game. "Their defense is a combination of quickness with great defensive backs," Thompson said. "They didn't confuse me but they slid off their blocks better than we expected." However, on Indiana's first drive of the game it seemed as if Thompson would have his way with Michigan's tough rushing defense. The drive Thompson had already gained 32 yards on six carries. "When you start a game against a great cut runner, you've got to get in the flow of the game and get to know what he's doing," Schembechler said. Once the defense got in the flow of things, Thompson got the opportunity to meet nearly every Michigan defender up close and personally. "Everybody kind of gang tackled him," Michigan defensive lineman Mike Teeter said. "We wanted to stop him. Anytime you get a back like Thompson coming into the stadium, it motivates the defense. "It motivates us because it's our house and we don't like anybody running in our house," Teeter said. However, many Wolverines ran rampantly across See INDIANA, page 5 Adam - Ironic indeed! Boles outshines Thompson It was a situation you could have pictured oldtime, curmudgeon NBC baseball announcer Vin Scully describing. "Isn't it ironic," Scully might say, "that on a day where Heisman Trophy candidate Anthony Thompson was supposed to be the star, here comes Tony Boles and a 91-yard touchdown gallop." "The Indiana Hoosiers, underdogs like Odysseus in his travails, yet sporting a legitimate Herculean force in running back Thompson, travelled to Ann Arbor to challenge the favored Michigan Wolverines. "Thompson needed merely two touchdowns to break the all-time NCAA touchdown record held by the legendary Glenn Davis from Army and Tony Dorsett from Pittsburgh. But while Thompson had been literally running circles around the rest of the Hoosier opponents, he was shut down by the vaunted Wolverine defense. See SCHRAGER, page 5 DAVID LUULINE-/Uaily Michigan tailback Tony Boles (42) attempts to break through a hole against Indiana Saturday. Boles rushed for 156 yards on 14 carries. His fifth 150-plus yard performance earned him sixth place on the all-time Michigan list for such games. Wolverine backs as a whole rushed for 356 yards on the day, averaging 8 yards per carry. Lake Superior defense frustrates ,Michigan icers in weekend sweep eventually faltered on Michigan's 39-yard line, but A look at the state of by Peter Zellen Daily Hockey Writer SAULT STE. MARIE - In their six periods against Lake Superior State, the Michigan hock- ey team could muster only a period- and-a-half of offense, resulting in a Laker sweep by the scores of 4-3 and 4-1. The losses dropped Michigan out of first place in the CCHA. "They (Lake Superior) play a defensive style of hockey," said Michigan coach Red Berenson. "They didn't give us a lot of chances and you have to do something with your shots. We didn't capitalize (on the power play) and that was the difference in the game." The Michigan scoring unit was stagnant for the series, going 2-for- 14 on power plays. In the first period of Friday's game Michigan was able to move the puck effectively, scoring goals both early and late in the period by seniors Todd Copeland (on a power play) and Rob Brown. Then, with 57 seconds passed in the second period, sophomore right winger Ted Kramer was able to score on a power play that began late in the first period when Laker -right winger Sandy Moger was 'It was a physical series and you had to keep your feet moving.' -Patrick Neaton as hard," Kramer said. "I think they were more aggressive and didn't let us work behind the net like we were able to in Chicago. We stopped working and they outworked us the last half of the game." With Michigan holding a 3-1 lead at 12:10 in the second, Michigan defenseman Doug Evans was called for hooking. This proved to be a costly penalty as Laker defenseman Karl Johnston was able to score on the power play a minute later. For the remainder of the period Lake Superior assaulted Michigan goalie Warren Sharples with shots from all angles and finally put the puck past him with only 35 seconds left in order to tie the game at three goals apiece. "We had the momentum at that point. Our work ethic and mid-zone play weren't letting them take See ICE HOCKEY, page 4 women's at by Steve Blonder Daily Sports Analysis Even with the progress of non- revenue sports at Michigan, they still must survive in the shadow of the Michigan football and bas- ketball teams. The basketball and football programs provide enough money for the other varsity sports to exist and the athletic department supports 21 sports without any money from the University's general fund. Often overlooked, however, is the growth and development of so- called minor sports, particularly the women's sports. A report submitted last Thursday night to the Board in Control of Intercollegiate Athletics attempted to address the role of women's sports at the University. After dutifully noting the im- provements made in the women's program since Bo Schembechler as- sumed the athletic directorship in June, 1988, the report specified a hletics... number of areas needing improve- ment, including: - setting up a separate bureauc- racy to administer the women's program, in which the support staff would enjoy the same access and resources as the men's sports; - giving the same attention to women's sports from a public re- lations standpoint as is given to: comparable men's sports; and - raising the salaries paid to women's coaches and increasing the inducements to bring top-flight coaches to Michigan. - Associate Athletic Director Jack Weidenbach accepted the report on behalf of the athletic department, and promised to seriously consider the issues raised. One issue in the report is the designation of "flagship sports" which would receive the necessary resources so they could be com- petitive on a national level, while See REPORT, page 3 called for roughing. While Lake Superior had scored a goal in the first minute of the game, Michigan was able to hold them off until halfway through the second, when the Wolverine's downfall began. "It wasn't a tougher defensive effort by them. We just didn't work 'I don't know how much more from a funding standpoint we can go. It has cost a lot of money, but it is money well spent.' -Bob De Carolis, Assistant Athletic Director in charge of Finances' _.__ __.
