Associated Press Top:2 Spikers served two losses in final two home contests by Ryan Schreiber Daily Sports Writer In their final home weekend of the season, the Michigan volleyball team lost a pair to Northwestern and Wisconsin Friday and Saturday nights. Northwestern (10-17 overall, 5-8 in the Big Ten) literally served Michigan (6-17, 1-14) the loss, forcing the Wolverines into service return errors throughout the match. Outside hitter Shelly Brzozowski led the Wildcat charge with 10 kills and two aces in their 15-7, 15-7, 15-11 victory. "(Brzozowski's) got a top-spin, side-spin serve that's real difficult to handle," Michigan coach Joyce Davis said. "Although we had problems with it tonight, we didn't have nearly as many problems as we did up at their place. She's an awfully tough server." Northwestern coach Jerry Angle agre.athattthe servicetook Michigan out of its offensive continuity.. "I think we served real well tonight," Angle said. "Michigan was constantly passing the ball up near the 10-foot line. When they got the ball up to the net, we had trouble stopping their quick attack. But, as long as we kept the ball eight feet from the net on their passing, we had a pretty good idea of where the ball had to be set to." In the third game, the Wolverine's intensity level rose as they fought evenly with Northwestern. However, Miriam Stariha, whose 13 kills were a game high, snuffed out any chance for Michigan to extend the match, scoring on three late opportunities. Countering Brzozowski, first-year hitter Hayley Lorenzen brought a new dimension to the Michigan attack with her outstanding service game in both matches, tallying six aces for the weekend. "Hayley played great," Davis said. "She's been improving with each match all year long. She served really well and aggressively." - The service game dominated the match versus Wisconsin, (19-9, 7-7) with both teams combining for a remarkable 26 aces in addition to 26 service errors as the Badgers came away victorious, 15-12, 15-4, 14-16, 15-7. Michigan's Julia Sturm contributed a game-high five aces and 14 kills to lead the Wolverines to the third-game, come-from-behind win. "I was really proud of the way we fought to get Game 3," Davis said. "But, again, our receiving game was inconsistent. It wasn't up to par with competing in the Big Ten." On a lighter note, senior Karen Marshall recorded 10 kills, the final one moving her into first place for career kills at Michigan with 1,046. She jumped ahead of Marie Ann Davidson who set the record in 1988. "It's the highlight of my career being able to be in the record books," Marshall said. "It's great because I think I'm taking over Marie Ann, who I played with for three years and was a great player." 4;; '. {}}: ;:::":; %:.;:.:} . ..)3e% . i$:: : % .. ; : r . .. . %;' ::::::::.::::.::.:.(:::::....:.. , :...:.:::.::.San:::ieg::St. :::. 1lin i~t?,;;;;( :7:"r:}: tt Lost: t M :hi gs": i...24.10....:..::::: :9:.:.:..:;.:.::> 1 ..:.....(..). .X1.,49.:j.:.de..... .....Griddes sUm1 KENNETH SMOLLER/Day Julia Sturm digs out the ball in Michigan's loss to Northwestern Friday.

Another member of the force is entering the suspects' establishment to search for other violators. The five individuals are accused of dropping off their Griddes picks on Saturday evenings at midnight, breaking into the Student Publications Building, and thereby cheating to win the lunch or dinner for two at O'Sullivan's Eatery and Pub on South University (limit $12). "This kind of thing is just a disgrace to the United States of America," said one GIA spokesperson who wished to remain anonymous. "Fortunately, the GIA is on the lookout for scum like them."

NCAAs Women 'S swim team qualifies three divers for nationals The Michigan men's swim team looked impressive in its season debut, garnering wins in Madison; Wisconsin and Evanston, Illinois 'over the weekend. On Friday night, the Wolverines defeated Wisconsin and the next day dominated a dual meet with Iowa State and Northwestern. As expected, Michigan had little trouble against the Badgers, capturing 75 points to Wisconsin's 33.The new400-yard freestyle relay° team of Brian Gunn, Brent Lang, Jarret Winter, and Eric Namesnik performed especially well. Senior co-captain Lang was pleased with the Wolverine's performance. "The 400 freestyle team performed better than the team at midseason last year," Lang said. "Overall, individual times weren't outstanding, but everyone raced well." In Saturday's dual meet, Michigan outscored Iowa State 66 to 48, and Northwestern 100 to 11. Thesteam coasted despite the absence of All-Americans Mike Barrowman and Eric Wunderlich, both of whom had exams Friday. Namesnik filled the void with solid showings in three events. Assistant coach Mark Noetzel said the coaching staff is still looking at individuals and combinations which will excel in14 the NCAA championships at the end of the season. "We're always changing them (the lineups) around a little, trying to see who are the fastest at this point," Noetzel said. "We're looking down the road to March to find a group that can give us good times." The men's swim team will look for continued success in this Wednesday's home opener against Oakland University. by Jeni Durst Daily Sports Writer The Michigan women's swim 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20.

At the squad's first dual meet against Wisconsin in Madison, Karen Sinclair and Whitney Shearer placed first and second respectively in the 1-meter springboard diving event. In doing so, they both surpassed the point-total needed for an NCAA regional bid. The two also went 1-2 in the 3-meter event. Along with many other strong performances, the diver's finishes helped Michigan crush Wisconsin by a whopping 40 point margin, 78-38. Diving aside, the Wolverines captured nine of the eleven other events. Yet the Badgers' head coach Carl Yohannson was excited with his two victories. All-American Susan Wilkinson pulled out wins in those events. "You pretty much know the outcome when you go in (to a competition)," Yohannson said. "You have to race and learn from your races." On the Wolverine side, senior Gwen DeMaat found victory in both her events, the 200-yard freestyle and the 200 backstroke. Frosh Mindy Gehrs had a strong, versatile day, placing first in the 200 individual medley, second behind DeMaat in the 200 freestyle, and third in the 200 breaststroke. Gehrs, who specializes in the butterfly, was one of many who swam outside her usual event. "We swam people in some different events to get them a little hungry for their events today (Saturday against Northwestern)," Michigan coach Jim Richardson said. The Wolverines strategy proved very effective against the Wildcats. Michigan rolled over Northwestern, 81-31, much to the surprise of coach Richardson. "We were expecting a really close meet," the fifth-year coach said. "It may be that they're a little behind us in training." The Wolverines' dominated the meet in giving up only one first- place finish - in the 200 butterfly. Many team members handed in double victories. "This was the best dual meet we've ever had since I've been at Michigan," Richardson exclaimed. "These kind of times at this time of year is awesome."
