Icers open season at

In the wake of the new fall sea-
son, this weekend marks the pre-
miere of a different program. And the
first episode is entitled "The Battle
of the Rookies."
The Michigan hockey team
springs into CCHA action tonight
and Saturday with a road series
against Miami of Ohio. For both
teams, it will be their first taste of
intercollegiate play this year.
"I think there will be a lot of
anxious mistakes from first-game
jitters from both teams," Michigan
coach Red Berenson said. "This will
be the first time we'll get a feel for
our team as a team and not playing
against each other, so I'm not sure
what we're going to see."
With one-third of the Wolverines'
and half of Miami's roster comprised
of first-year players, the question of
success will be answered by the de-
velopment of these rookies.
"We felt we had a talented incom-
ing freshman class, but in any walk
of life it's difficult for new people to
adjust right away," Miami coach
George Gwozdecky said. "I think
that it's going to take us awhile be-
fore we really become a competitive
team. Whether we like it or not,
those freshman are going to play and
they're going to play a lot."
Along with the addition of its 12
first-year players, Miami has to re-
place its two top scorers. Both Craig
Fisher and Todd Harkins turned pro
before the end of their eligibility.
The Redskins' lack of offense
should alleviate the question marks
surrounding the Wolverine goalie
situation. The Michigan coaching
staff has still not decided who will
fill the spot between the pipes. Yet,
this situation could be insignificant
because of the Wolverines' strength
along the blueline.
"In order to shoot on the goal-
tender you have to get through the
forwards and defense," Gwozdecky
said, "and I think their forwards and
0"
4iami
defense are so strong that it's going
to be very tough to get through
those first two barriers. It's going fo
be difficult for any team, Miami or
otherwise, to get to their goaltend-
ing."
Berenson agrees the decisive fac-
tor will be the defensive effort of hif
squad.
Women's soccer ties Siena, 1-1
by Jeff Cameron
and R.C. Heaton

As the shadows grew longer
Thursday afternoon, so did the faces
of the Michigan women's soccer
team. The Wolverines settled for a 1-
1 tie against Siena Heights College
in a superbly played game.
The game was expected to be
closely contested and extremely
physical, and no one went home
disappointed. The play was even for
most of the game, with neither team
gaining a clear-cut advantage. The
teams remained tied, 0-0, at the end
of the first half.
Michigan forward Heather
Marshall scored the first goal of the
game at the 13:26 mark of the
second half off of a corner kick by
Jenny Steinhebel.
"Stein put the ball right in the
crease," Marshall said. "I knocked it
home. There was no way I could
miss it."
The goal put the Wolverines up
1-0, and the way their defense was
playing, it appeared they would
emerge victorious. At the 25:13
mark, however, the defense suffered a
lapse allowing Siena Heights to tie
the score.
The rival schools then held
nothing back. The game became
more physical and emotions ran
high. Had this been a wrestling
match, Molly Duma would have
given the Wolverines the lead with
three takedowns during the rugged
second half. The score remained
deadlocked, and the teams headed for
overtime.
In overtime, rookie sensation
Lisa Ashton led the Wolverine
attack. She was involved in
numerous scoring opportunities,
through both her passing and her
shooting. Michigan was unable to
put the ball past the Siena Heights
goalie, and the game ended in a tie.
"We didn't play great, but we
played well enough to win,"
Michigan coach Phil Joyaux said.
"We were unlucky not to win. We
had many chances."

CHICAGO - Forget the Big
Two and Little Eight.
Those gathered at yesterday's Big
Ten men's basketball tipoff lun-
cheon clearly discussed the confer-
ence in terms of the Big Three and
Little Seven - and Michigan didn't
make the cut.
I Actually, the Wolverines weren't
discussed a whole lot anyway - ex-
cept when media representatives or
coaches joked about Sean Higgins'
apparent mistake in leaving Ann
Arbor for a try at the NBA.
Attention at the luncheon, which
is used as an annual opportunity for
the press to confront coaches for five
hours, was centered on Michigan

title aspirations.
"For the first time since I've been
in the league, I think you have three
real strong teams," Purdue coach
Gene Keady said. "And (for)-the
other seven, it's going to be a real
dogfight.
"I think there's always going to
be one sleeper that's going to chal-
lenge. I don't know who that's go-
ing to be - Minnesota, Wisconsin,
maybe ourselves could be in there,
Iowa, Illinois - who knows."
Interest in the Wolverines appar-
ently left with the four players -
Rumeal Robinson, Loy Vaught,
Terry Mills and Sean Higgins -
drafted by the NBA in June.
But coaches stressed that departed
players from Michigan and other
teams - especially Illinois and
Minnesota - would not affect the
conference's popularity after receiv-
ing an unprecedented seven bids to
the NCAA tournament last season.
"It just doesn't change much,"
Indiana coach Bobby Knight said. "I
don't think the Big Ten is ever very
different than the year before."
