His speed and scoring ability have helped him, a first-year center on Michigan's ice hockey team, rise near the top of the Wolverine scor- ing column. "He's already shown that he'll be- come a great college player," Mich- igan coach Red Berenson said. "Everything pretty well centers around my skating," Ouimet said. "It's simple - If I'm not skating well, I play pretty badly. When I first came here, I wasn't sure if I could keep up. As things went on, I found that I could." Not only has Ouimet kept up, but he also managed to pace the team with a 16-game point streak that ended this past weekend. His speed and aggressiveness have also helped him become a fixture on power plays. In all, the Poplar Hill, Ontario native has amassed 33 points, tallying 12 goals and 21 assists in 30 games this season. "I've done a lot more than I expected my first year," he said. Ironically, Ouimet, who is in the School of Physical Education but is unsure of any future plans, didn't even start out as an offensive player. His father, Ted Ouimet, was a goal- tender and teammate of Berenson with St. Louis from 1968-70. "My dad always took us (Mark and older brother Terry, a forward at Miami, Ohio) to the rinks," Ouimet said. "If you're around the rinks enough when you're young, it'll start to grow on you." But while he still loves goal- tending, Ouimet was converted early to a forward. "When I was 10, we needed some skaters on the team," he said. "My skating ability was too good to waste in goal." After playing Junior B hockey in Canada with the Strathroy Blades for three years until he was 16, Ouimet began thinking about college. The Western Junior B Most Valuable Player in 1988-89 visited several other universities, including almost all of the other CCHA schools, but Ouimet's mind was made up after his first trip to Ann Arbor. "Every chance my father got to talk to me about school, he kept on driving at Michigan," Ouimet said. "He said (Berenson, an NHL center) could definitely help me as a center." Berenson was just as happy with Ouimet as Ouimet was with Mich- igan. "He's one of those players that sticks out of crowd with his speed," Berenson said. "He's a player that is always skating and always working. And he's very coachable." Ouimet feels he made the right choice. "It still amazes me," Ouimet Page 11 .d w speed a said. "I still have to glance down a't my sweater to make sure it's Mich- igan. My biggest thrill would ha'e' to be right before our first horie: game. (Senior center) Rob Broi\n: and I were standing on the stars;: outside the locker room listening' r;! the band and he was totally psychtg me up." Brown feels Ouimet has returned the favor with his performance enr the ice. "Mark hadn't played in the first few games with us and it was just so great to see his excitement," Brown said. "He adds some energy and ex- citement." And maybe that's what keeps him going so fast.

The Tigers (23-2, 9-1) beat the JAyhawks (24-2, 7-2) 95-87 on J4nuary 20th and their second win over Kansas keeps them atop the Big r !.--- Eight standings as well. This was the first matchup of Nos. 1-2 since top-ranked North Carolina beat Georgia Tech 78-77 on February 4, 1986, and that wad also a road victory. Kansas coach Roy Williams was a member of Dean Smith's staff in the game. Kansas had rallied from a 63-53 deficit to tie the score at 64-64 with 5:33 left to play. The Jayhawks used their bench and went inside to score, usually the Tigers' strongpoint. Peeler, who leads the Tigers at 18.7 points per game, broke the tie for good when he scored on an offensive rebound, the Tigers' third in the sequence, with 4:58 left. The play followed a timeout called by Missouri coach Norm Stewart. Doug Smith, the Tigers' second- leading scorer at 18.6, then made two free throws, just his second and third points of the half, and Missouri on a 9-2 run which put the game away. Kansas did get within 73-71 on a three-pointer by Kevin Pritchard with 1:09 to play, but first-year player Travis Ford then made two free throws and Peeler added two more for the final margin. Nathan Buntin added 16 points for Missouri, while John McIntyre had 15 and Smith 12. Mark Randall led Kansas with 15 points, one more than reserve for- ward Mike Maddox, who scored 14 points and had an assist in the Jayhawks' 11-1 run which brought about the 64-64 tie.
