Football vs. Michigan State Saturday, 3:30 p.m. Michigan Stadium SPORTS Volleyball vs. Iowa Friday, 7:30 p.m. Varsity Arena 4- The Michigan Daily Men's soccer team falls to Central, 4-3 Wednesday, October 10, 1990 Page 10' Blue shutout streaki by Kenneth Artz Daily Sports Writer If the men's soccer team has strived for consistency this season, it has achieved it. In a rather dubious manner. Last night the Wolverines lost another match by a goal. Out of Michigan's seven losses, six of them have been by that slim margin. This time it was Central Michi- gan to lay the hurt on the Blue, as the Chippewas broke a 2-2 halftime tie to pull out a 4-3 victory on a rain-soaked Mitchell field.. 'Michigan (6-7) dominated the Central Michigan for the first twenty minutes of the first half. But it was thb Chippewas who scored first, tak- ing advantage of an advanced defen- sive position. Since the ball was in Central's end the entire first half, Michigan's defense was vulnerable to a counter- attack. Central Michigan sent the ball up the wings to their quick for- wards, and scored two quick goals midway through the first half. "We underestimated their counter- at1cking ability," striker Sam Stew- artsaid. -The Wolverines then took advan- tage of some offensive opportunities to tie the game before halftime. The speedy Eric Moore burned his de- fender, and chipped a pass to the head of forward Kelly Kuehne, who neatly placed it underneath the crossbar. With the score 2-1, senior Todd Neff took a pass from midfielder Matt Dikin and volleyed it into the upper right corner of the net to knot the score. The second half mirrored the first, as the Wolverines dominated and the Chippewas scored. Two defensive lapses led to the opposition's goals. Throughout the game the defend- ers let the opposing forwards roam the 18 yard line unmarked. This led to a bevy of open passing lanes, and the Chippewas took advantage of two of them. "Our defense needs more disci- pline," coach Don Schwartz said. The Wolverines kept the ball in Central's half the rest of the game, but could only muster a goal by Ja- son Cardasis. He intercepted a Chippewa pass back to the goal- tender, and lodged it into the right side of the net. continues by Eric Sklar Daily Sports Writer Yesterday afternoon the Michigan women's soccer team dominated its opponent. Again. This time the vic- tim was the team from Western Michigan, which the Wolverines de- feated on a muddy Mitchell Field, 8- 0. Crista Towne led Michigan (10- 2-2) against the Broncos, finishing the contest with a hat trick. Shannon Loper contributed with two goals, and Heather Marshall, Sandy Najar- ian, and Jenny Steinhebel each notched one goal. "It seemed like they were a young team, without a lot of experience," coach Phil Joyaux said of WMU. Rain was falling throughout the entire game, but it did not have a large impact on the outcome of the game. "It was difficult to play because of the wet conditions," Towne said. "But it was fun because we got a chance to put moves on the other people. We took people one-on-one and scored." It was Michigan's fourth shutout in a row, a streak welcomed by the Wolverine squad in anticipation of vs. WMU next week's showdown with Mich- gan State. "These games have been good," Towne said. "We've been beating people by a lot, but it's bringing up our intensity to get ready for Staff If we keep on the streak that we'r on now, even though we're playing; weaker teams, it still gets your in; tensity up for the big games." s. "It's the same situation with so; many of the women's club teams Joyaux said. "They don't have play ers. They have to dig out players. O "When you're a club team, the good players, or the experience' players, go to varsity program When you're a club team your stuCk, trying to train people that have nt played a lot, who have not had a loT of experience." However, Joyaux feels that al- though the women's team at Michi- gan is a club team, it has not su- fered like some of the club teams at smaller schools. "There are a lot of people th~, come here, who might be good so * cer players, who could go play any- where else they had varsity, but they want to come here because of the school, and aren't worried about the soccer.

Center for Afroamerican and African Studies The University of Michigan presents C i Novelist and Cultural Critic Joyaux! First-year soccer coach adds dimension to Wolverine club } George Lamming King/Chavez/Parks Visiting Professor and Writer in Residence by Eric Sklar Daily Sports Writer Teams often request better facilities to im- prove their program. The women's soccer team simply wanted a coach. They got their wish, as Phil Joyaux assumed the helm this season, and has guided his team to a 10-2-2 record thus far. Although this is his first year in charge of the Michigan team, Joyaux has been coaching soccer since 1978. He headed the varsity team at Gran- dledge (MI) High School for four years, and was the junior varsity coach for a year at East Lans- ing High School. He was the assistant varsity coach at Adrian (MI) College for one year, and has also coached various club teams. For the past five summers, Joyaux worked at soccer camps, and served on the Michigan Olympic Development Staff. In 1982, he took a team of all-stars to Europe. But this season is Joyaux's first as the coach of a women's team. "Almost all of my life I've coached guys," he said, adding that there is usually a difference be- tween men and women soccer players. "The difference is because of coaching," he said. "Coaches generally have low expectations for girls. I told them the first day that there's no excuse for them not to be technically as good as a guy. There's no reason to not have the same skills. It helps you reach your goal." One definitive team goal is to defeat their in- tra-state rivals. "The girls get up for Michigan State, Siena Heights, and Schoolcraft, because those are the teams they've lost to in the past," he said. "This year we beat Schoolcraft and tied them. We beat them badly in the first game, and the second time, no one was up for it." Joyaux feels that the desire to defeat rivals is understandable, but as a team goal, it ends up hurting the team. "When your only goal is to beat your rivalĀ§; the games in between don't mean that much," h' said. "No one gets up for the other teams. No* one really gets excited." Despite the team's success, Joyaux remains unsatisfied. "We should be 13-0," he said. "We've domi nated every game. In the games that we've lost ci tied we haven't scored when we should've. Be- cause of that there's a certain sense of frustra tion."
