It's showtime
Moeller leads Blue on quest for
by Mike Gill
Daily Football Writer
Dim the lights. This is it, the
night of nights.
No more rehearsing. On with the
show, this is it.
Except that this is Wisconsin.
The Big Ten season is upon
Michigan and its Wolverines, the
games that serve as the steps to the
Rose Bowl. The three previous
games can be served up as simply
experience gainers, except when it
comes to worrying about the
national ranking.
Oh yeah, Michigan is ranked
third, and with Florida State playing
Miami this weekend, there's the
chance Michigan could move even
higher. All this, despite an opening
game loss to Notre Dame.
Barry Alvarez used to know about
life on the top. He worked for
Hayden Fry and the Hawkeyes before
assuming the job as defensive
coordiator at Notre Dame, where he
won a national championship.
Alvarez beat out Michigan defensive
coordinator Lloyd Carr for the
Wisconsin job, his first head
coaching experience.
Now, Saturday's game (2:05
kickoff, no TV, WJR (760) WWJ
(950), WPZA (1050)) is billed as a
battle of rookie coaches: one
attempting to rebuild a program and
grab a couple of wins; the other
working for the Rose Bowl while
silently eyeing a possible national
title.
But don't get it wrong. Gary
Moeller is sitting in a corner, wor-
ried stiff, about the problems Wis-
consin could throw his Wolverines.
Reason number one: Barry
Alvarez.
"Barry has a lot of experience
playing against us because he was a
coordinator at Notre Dame. He
knows a lot of our tendencies and
what we like to do."
Reason number two: Rest.

One of the main worries for Michigan coach Gary Moeller is the loss of
starting center Steve Everitt who suffered a broken foot last Saturday.

All the anticipation and hype
around the Michigan hockey team
will finally come to a climax at 7:30
tonight at Yost Ice Arena when the
Maize and Blue face off against...
Well, against the Maize and Blue.
Yes, the highly touted Wolverine
hockey squad will have to wait one
more week before testing its ability
against another school, but the icers
will get a taste of game-type
competition when they play in to-
night's Blue-White intrasquad game.
The icers will play another.
similar scrimmage Saturday in
Chatham, Ontario. The purpose of
playing two games at different sites
is to simulate a home-and-home
series with a CCHA opponent.
Chatham is roughly the same dis-
tance fron Ann Arbor as Bowling
Green and Western Michigan.
These games will be important as
Michigan coach Red Berenson and
his staff make their final evaluations
of players before the season begins.
"We're working on various
fundamentals, such as forechecking
in the neutral zone," Berenson said.
"Our special teams (power plays and
penalty-killing) need a lot of work,
as they do every year."
All eyes will be onhthe men
between the pipes, as the search
continues for a replacement for
Warren Sharples as the starting
goaltender. Junior Tim Keough is
the only returning goalie on the
roster, but both Chris Gordon and
Steve Shields will contend for the
job in their first year.
"One thing I can say for sure is
that we'll have depth in goal,"
Berenson said. "Goalkeeping is
something that we're watching
carefully."
The scrimmage will also be an
important opportunity for the seven
other first-year players on the squad.
Berenson will be counting on
significant contributions from his
heralded rookie class.

rivals Indiana, Ohio State, Wis-
consin, and Michigan State.
Coach Sue LeClair feels the
diversity of the opposition will have*
little impact on the team.
"We rarely see some of these
teams," LeClair said. "To judge our
play we really need to look at the
teams we have seen, and not the
teams from out West."
LeClair's biggest concern is the
consistency of the players. Although
they solved the problem of high
first-round scores last week at Mich-4
igan State, they inexplicably lost
their touch in the following two
rounds.
"My goal for the tournament,
obviously, other than winning it, is
for the girls to play three consistent
rounds like they are capable of,"
LeClair said.
Leading the charge this weekend
will be Becky Hayes and Erica
Zonder. Zonder's improved play of*
late has taken some of the pressure.
