p The Michigan Daily - Friday, October 26, 1990 - Page 15 Blue water polo club to host Michigan State b'y Ken Sugiura Daily Sports Writer Water polo fans rejoice! *0W The Michigan water polo club plays its first home match in ten years Saturday evening. However, the Odyssean return will end up a few miles short of Canham Nat- atorium, as coach Scott Russell's team made reservations at the nearest pool: Pioneer High School. The Wolverines (7-11 overall, 2- 4 in the Big Ten) will face Michigan State in two matches. "Finally, to have (a match) inside the city limits of Ann Arbor is pretty exciting for me," senior icaptain Keith Cox said. Last Saturday in Bloomington, the Wolverines splashed Indiana, 17-9, in the semifinal. Michigan then took the tournament crown with a 6-5 victory over Missouri- Rolla's varsity squad. h Traditionally, the Spartans have been a weak team, and that gives Cox confidence entering the match. "We've got some cautious optimism going for Saturday," he said. According to Cox, the B-team "held their own" against the Spartan varsity squad. He looks for them to post a win against their second- team counterparts. The match at home provides a welcome respite for the Wolverines. The lack of travel will be a good opportunity to rest up for the Big - Ten Championships a week away in Bloomington. Michigan holds the third seed behind Northwestern and Wisconsin, but Cox is ready to capture the title. "(The third seed) is not a bad place for us," he said. "I'd be kind of disappointed if we don't win." The matches begin at 7:30 p.m. HOOSIERS Continued from page 1 Indiana coach Bill Mallory, whose team is a half-game ahead of Michigan in the standings, is sur- prised to find the Wolverines in their current position. "I think Michigan's as good a team as there is in the conference," Mallory said. "If anyone had pre- dicted they'd be 1-2, I would have said no. They still have a darn good football team." Nor would many have predicted Indiana (4-1 overall, 1-1-1 Big Ten) to have started the season so strong. Moeller believes Indiana's success is a year ahead of schedule and, two weeks ago, several league coaches called the Hoosiers the surprise team of the league after they had stormed to a 4-0-1 record. In those first five games, Indiana outscored its opponents 209-76, with final scores of 45-24 (Kentucky), 58-7 (Missouri), 37-6 (Eastern Michigan), 42-0 (Northwestern), and 27-27 (Ohio State). A primary force behind Indiana's scoring surge has been Vaughn (no resemblance, no relation)Dunbar. The senior tailback has averaged 5.2 yards a carry and has rushed for 556 yards so far this season. Moeller expressed concern for In- diana's balanced offensive attack and Vaughn in particular: "They have a good tailback and their quarterback (junior Trent Green) is playing well. We don't want Dunbar running the ball or their fullbacks breaking loose on option plays," he said. Dunbar and the rest of Indiana's offensive juggernaut hit a sudden snag last week, however, in a 12-0 loss to Minnesota in which Dunbar managed only 11 yards. "I'm very disappointed in the way we played," Mallory said. "Disappointed in our kicking game and offensively we didn't get the job done." While rumors floated after the game that Indiana's offensive line tipped off Minnesota's defense with the way its guards lined up, Moeller has a different explanation for the loss. MacDonald unveils swim club as non-varsity outlet by Bonnie Bouman Stacy MacDonald leaned back as she watched over a dozen bodies flashing through the water. "It's amazing to look at it and think that I started it," she said of Michigan's new coed swim club. 0. MacDonald, an LSA sophomore, was amazed last year to find there was no organized outlet for swimming other than the varsity swim team. "I was so disappointed, I couldn't believe a big school like this didn't have a club," she said. MacDonald got sick of complaining that she had no one to swim with. She eventually started looking for others interested in swimming competitively, but who didn't have the time or ability for the team. She .approached the sports club director and posted signs on campus. "I knew there were a lot of people who want to swim," MacDonald said. "I felt I couldn't lose." Now 20 people practice Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10:15 p.m. to Omidnight at the North Campus Recreation Building. Coach Steve Murley, a grad student who also coaches the Ann Arbor Master's swim team, uses three different workout levels: A, B and C, for swimmers of varying abilities. "We've got a wide range of people," he explained. "Some swam competitively and some never did." The C level swims around 3400 yards, while A swimmers can do up to 4000. "Everyone's increasing in endurance," said Murley, who volunteers his time to the swim club. "I'm still not where I'd like to be, but it's improving," said Jeff Grant, an LSA senior who saw a sign posted at the CCRB last spring. "I was out of shape and I just wanted to get back into swimming, see how fast I could Linda Friedburg, also an LSA senior, joined hoping the formality would encourage her to exercise regularly. "It's a good low pressure way to work -Out, it's organized." Friedburg swam for the varsity program her first year here, but left because of demands on her time. "Swimming is not only physically but mentally demanding," she said. "When you have a group of people, you develop a camaraderie and it helps you stay in and work harder." The club is planning a meet against CMU, and MacDonald is searching *or other colleges with similar clubs. "It's hard since we're so new to travel long distances and stay in hotels," she said. "It'll have to be day meets at first." Both MacDonald and Murley would like to see more members interested In swimming. "We'd like to fill the pool," Murley said. "I want people to be able to have fun and swim and to work out to- gether," MacDonald said. JOSE JUAREZ/Daily Sophomore wide receiver Desmond Howard eludes a Maryland defender en route to a first down earlier this season, in Michigan's victory over the Terrapins. The Wolverines travel to Bloomington to take on the Indiana Hoosiers this weekend. in an effort to rebound from two straight losses. "Number one, Minnesota is not a terrible football team," he said. "It happens to everyone coming off a big, emotional game against Ohio State. They probably weren't in the proper frame of mind. "I think what happened to them is they were overlooking Minnesota, trying to think about Michigan com- ing in here." Now, it is the Wolverines who can't afford to take their eyes off the road when they bus down to Bloom- ington. "Anytime you're the defending champion and picked to win it (the Big Ten), it's not easy," Moeller said. "But there is not pressure on us now, we can just come out and be a fly-around team."
