Page 6 - The Michigan Daily - Sports Monday- April 9, 1990 TRACK Continued from page 1 One of two double winners on the day, first year thrower Julie Victor, won the discus for the second straight week with a throw of 154- feet-6 inches. She also won the shotput with a toss of 44-feet- two and a half inches. Sarah Neely finished second in the shot. "We expect great performances from Julie," Henry said. "And because we expect it she sometimes doesn't get the praise she deserves." The other double winner of the day was sophomore sprinter Suzette Thweatt. Thweatt was a member of the winning 4 X 100 relay team that won in a time of 47.79 and also finished first in the 100 meter hurdles with a time of 14.80 seconds. "Suzie continues to impress us every week," Henry said. "I'm very surprised and pleased with the way she is running." Assistant coach Sue Foster who generally works with the distance runners did not make the trip this weekend, nor did two of her top distance runners Molly McClimon and Mindy Rowand. But the distance team didn't lose a step as Amy Bannister, Carol Boyd, and Chris Tyler overcame strong winds to dominate distance competition. Bannister captured first in the 800 meters with a time of 2:11.7, Boyd won the 3000 meters, and Tyler was victorious in the 1500 meters. Michigan will travel to Knoxville, Tennessee next weekend for the Dogwood Relays where the competition will be accelerated as teams from all over the country come to compete. "I'm looking forward to seeing where we stand against some of the stronger teams in the country," Henry said. "I hope we can get some good weather down there." N'WSTN Continued from page 5 the first set, and was up 5-0 in the second when the Badger's Jill Chullino switched her strategy. Chullino grabbed the next 13 straight games to take the match 4- 6, 7-5, 6-0. "It was disappointing," coach Bitsy Ritt said. "We did not nlav well at all and I thought going into the match that we would have been competitive at each position with them. The intensity just wasn't there." That intensity returned against Northwestern on Sunday, even though the Wolverines dropped the match, 5-4. Michigan captured three out of six of the singles, but could only hang on in one of the doubles, giving the Wildcats their five indi- vidual wins needed to take the match. No. 2 seed Stacy Berg returned from a crushing loss on Saturday (6- 0, 6-0) to defeat Northwestern's So- young Lee, 6-3, 6-2. Jennifer Lev, playing No. 6, came back from los- ing a close first set to beat North- western's Allie Turner 4-6, 6-3, 6-3. Christine Schmeidel at No. 1, coming off a troubled, disappointing loss to Elaine Demotroulis of Wisconsin, rebounded to capture her match 6-1, 6-4. "Even though we lost, it's encouraging," Ritt explained. BIG TEN Continued from page 1 Sophomore Terri McFarland, the Big Ten Freshman of the Year last season, is off to another good start. McFarland has already appeared in 25 games allowing just under a run per game for the Hawkeyes. She leads the league with 12 wins and a whopping 105 strikeouts, a stat that doesn't surprise others in the league. "They've got a real flamethrower with McFarland," Hutchins said. "She's a big strikeout artist, but she's not untouchable. My team loves the hard throwers. We beat her last year and knocked her out of the game." McFarland's counterpart on the Iowa staff has been even more devastating to opponents. Amy Hartsock, the most recent Player-of-the-Week in the Big Ten, has been close to untouchable lately. INDIANA will also vie for the championship. They return a strong nucleus from last year's squad that finished fourth in the conference. That talented group had made itself very apparent in the preseason, providing some very potent pitching. But just last weekend, the Hoosiers dropped a pair of games at Ohio State, lending more validity to Hutchins' idea of league parity. Like Iowa, Indiana has been riding the success of its own pitching staff. And what a pitching staff it is. Indiana has won fourteen of its games in shutouts. NORTHWESTERN is looking for a return to national prominence, but they might have to wait awhile. The Wildcats dominated the Big Ten from 1984-87 finishing first each year and advancing to the College World Series three times. However, they have dropped to third place the last two years and they graduated five key players from the 1989 squad. A sixth player was lost this season when junior outfielder Shannon Walsh, who was second on the team in hitting, went down with a serious knee injury. Another newcomer to the league is not a player - she's a coach. MINNESOTA hired Teresa Wilson to replace Linda Wells, the winningest coach in the school's history. But Wilson came carrying her own impressive credentials. She was named the National Division I Coach-of-the-Year in 1989 at the University of Oregon as she led the Ducks to a College World Series berth. In her first season at Minnesota she has had more than her share of adversity. She lost two star players for the season to injuries when junior pitcher Brenda Bixby (shoulder) and junior infielder Kari Blank (knee) got hurt. "In Blank, we lost our starting second baseman and leadoff hitter," Wilson said. "She's probably the best. She was second team All-Big Ten last year. Now we've got two outfielders playing short and third and we've got a lot of new people in new positions. "We're making some adjustments and we had enough games in the preseason, hopefully, to make most of those adjustments. I think the team has gelled nicely together and really held up well during the adversity." OHIO STATE, with its pair of victories over Indiana, jumped out to an early lead in the Big Ten standings. But that stay should be short-lived. Adequate pitching, led by Donna Rupolo (3-4, 0.76 ERA), and subpar hitting will probably land the 15-13 Buckeyes a spot in the bottom half of the conference standings at season's end. . NCAA Continued from page 1 much more than that," Darden said. But the highest single event score for Michigan, a 45.85 on the team's best event - the floor exercise - wasn't as high as it could have been. Tony Angelotti, who scored a 9.85 on this event last week, only hit an 8.7 this weekend. A slightly hyper- extended knee which occurred earlier this week in practice held him back. Jim Round also could have scored higher. His 9.1 was lowered by stepping out of bounds twice. Ceballos once again was top scorer with a 9.55, again qualifying for NCAA's. Round had a tough meet throughout. "He's basically carried us through the season. He couldn't do it for himself (Saturday night), but he was still plugging for the team," Darden said. season's end.

Prime Student Housing 761-8000 r - TENNIS Continued from page 1 The Wolverines performed well in singles, gaining victories from Mitch Rubenstein, Terry London, and John Karzen. Michigan lost, however, because of their inability to win in doubles competition. Eisner was hardly discouraged, however, by his team's performance. "Northwestern is undefeated in our region and we played them very tough, so I'm not at all upset," Eisner said. Michigan's fortunes didn't improve in Sunday's meet with Iowa. Once again, the two teams split in singles, but the Hawkeyes managed a 2-1 edge in doubles competition to earn only their second win ever against the maize and blue. The Wolverines were hampered by the loss of Kass, who sat out of singles competition. Michigan was consequently forced to move its players up one seed. "When you take Kass away, it totally distorts your lineup," Eisner said. "It puts a tremendous amount of pressure on the guys to have to win up one notch from what they are normally at." Kass' absence forced Scott Cuppett to play at number one singles. The first year Wolverine responded with a 6-0, 6-4 rout of Thomas Adler. "Cuppett was terrific," Eisner said. "The guy he played had beat him easily in January. It shows how much he has improved as a player." Michigan's Rubenstein and David Pierce also garnered victories in sin- gles. Like Saturday, however, the Wolverines were outperformed in doubles. The No.1 doubles team of Kass and Cuppett won in three sets, but the number two seeded tandem of Rubenstein and Karzen lost 6-7,7- 6,4-6.
