Football Annual Spring Game Saturday, 1 p.m. Michigan Stadium Student Tickets: $3 The Michigan Daily Wild p1 by Jeff Sheran Daily Baseball Writer Michigan State pulled into Fisher Stadium yesterday, and the Wolverines pulled out their brooms. " For a change of pace, Michigan did the sweeping in its afternoon doubleheader, defeating the Spartans 3-2 in eight innings, and 2-1. Michigan (20-17 overall, 6-8 in the Big Ten) had developed a habit of dropping twin bills with conference foes, doing so against Indiana and Iowa. But after an unsettling loss to Central Michigan Tuesday, the Wolverines decided it would be best to regroup before digging its own grave even deeper. Michigan coach Bill Freehan held a pre-game discussion with his team about the team's pride, goals, and losing. And just when it appeared the ban on postseason play was causing more of a detriment than was originally thought, the Wolverines displayed character and enthusiasm in the late innings that ; was hitherto unexhibited this season. "I don't know what got them into the ballgame," Freehan said. "The great weather, the state rivalry, the discussion - I hope it was a combination of all three." Michigan State (20-9, 9-5) and Michigan stood deadlocked at 2-2 after the regulation seven innings of the first game, after Wolverine " righty Todd Marion replaced starter Rick Leonard in the fifth inning. The sophomore reliever posted four scoreless innings for his longest stint in his collegiate career. "I liked Marion's confidence," Freehan said. "He stayed ahead of the hitters. He was very positive out there."

Morse singled and advanced to third on Tim Flannelly's ensuing single. With one out, Ruff launched a fly ball to the warning track in right field, enabling Morse to jog home with the winning run. In the second game, Michigan State's Tony Doll attempted to in- tentionally walk Mike Matheny in the bottom of the seventh of the sec- ond game, after Andy Fairman took third on a double and an error. Doll's pitch veered wild, and Fairman came home with the second victory. "Fairman was a horse out there for us today," Freehan said. "He scored both runs, he dug a double play ball out of the dirt - he played excellent baseball." The Spartans scored the game's first run after first baseman Duane Young lined a third inning single to right and moved to second on a Kirt Ojala wild pitch. Ojala notched a strikeout and a pop-out, but then surrendered an RBI single' to Bob Juday. The Wolverines answered in the fifth when Fairman drew a walk. Matheny sent him to second on a sacrifice bunt, and Dave Everly scored Fairman with a double. Michigan received a boost from its first basemen in the game. Greg Haeger, who started the previous game at first base, came on in relief in the top of the eighth. Haeger re- tired the side and led off the bottom of the inning with a long fly out. Fairman, who guarded the right bag in the second game, then initiated his game-winning journey around the bases. Women's lacrosse wins Indiana tourney From Staff Reports The Michigan women's lacrosse club travelled to Bloomington, Indiana, this past weekend for the Indiana Lacrosse Tournament. Despite the Wolverines' limited experience, the team managed to come away with the title. Michigan played all three games in one day, with the best performances coming against Purdue in the first round. The Wolverines rolled over the Boilermakers, earning an 8-1 victory. The next opponent was Indiana in the second round, where the two teams played to a hard-fought 3-3 tie. Michigan had a scare when the Hoosiers were awarded a direct penalty shot with one second remaining on the clock, but the Michigan squad distracted the shooter just enough for her to miss, preserving a tie for the Wolverines. Michigan faced Ohio University in the final contest of the afternoon. Employing an impressive passing game, the Wolverines appeared to dominate the early stages of the match. Many missed shot opportunities on the part of Michigan, however, kept the score close. In the end, Michigan escaped with a 3-2 victory and the tournament championship. Defense player Jodi Sokol was pleased with her team's performance. "Everyone worked really hard and nobody was lazing off," she explained. "Everybody's psyched up for next year - we have a lot (f returning talent. I've only played this year, but I definitely think (women's lacrosse) is an up-and-coming sport - we certainly haven't hit our prime."' g i .
