01 Page 12-The Michigan Daily- Friday, October 4, 1991 Improved linksters to " tee off in Columbus ?L Spikers hope there's ". i by Jim Foss Daily Sports Writer resh off of a fourth-place finish at Othe Northern Intercollegiate Golf Tournament a week ago, the Michigan men's golf team is eyeing the'remaining meets on its fall sclidule with a very optimistic out- look. This weekend, the Wolverines held to Columbus for the Fall Buekeye Classic. The 54-hole tournament (36 Saturday, 18 Sunday) will be held on the par 72 Scarlet Golf Course. Tlfe Big Ten teams in the field in- clude Ohio State and Purdue. Kent State, Bowling Green, Xavier, Yotngstown State, Tennessee- Chattanooga, and Coastal Carolina will also be participating in the 12- team field. Vichigan coach Jim Carras feels that, the team will go to Columbus with a strong chance of placing high in the tournament. "Ohio State and Kent State will be strong," Carras said. "But it's a smaller field than usual, and we should be able to fin- ish' in the top three." the Scarlet Golf Course is used by Ohio State to host both a spring and fall tournament. "It's a very difficult golf course, but now, be- cause it's fall, the course is dry," Carras said. "The scores now should be lower than the ones shot in the spring." Denny Sikkila and Anthony Dietz, the two top scorers at the last tournament, will lead the Wolverines into Columbus. Sikkila just missed being the individual medalist by one shot at the Northern Intercollegiates, and Dietz was just three shots behind in fifth place. "Those two kids (Sikkila and Dietz) played exceptionally well at the last tournament," Carras said. "We know that we will be more competitive when we can get the fourth and fifth players to come through for us like they did." Carras believes his team will post better scores this year. "I feel very strongly that this will be a very competitive team," Carras said. "The practices have been going very well. I am optimistic about the tournament and have a very positive feeling in general." no place ii1 by Ryan Herrington Daily Sports Writer Playing at home is supposed to be an advantage for a squad in a dif- ficult match. The Michigan volley- ball team hopes to test this theory in a pair of Big Ten home matches against Ohio State tonight and Indiana tomorrow. The Buckeyes (2-0 in the Big Ten, 9-3 overall) enter Ann Arbor on an emotional high after defeating Penn State in five games, 14-15, 6-15, 17- 16, 15-5, 18-16 last weekend. The road victory ended the Lady Lions' 52-match regular season winning streak as well as their 42-match home winning streak. Buckeye coach Jim Stone feels that his team can sustain this high level of play in tonight's match. "We're getting tired of going on the road," Stone said. "General fa- tigue could be a problem (this weekend). However, we have placed it as a challenge to see if we can go at it one more time." Stone's team knows that it will be facing a different Wolverine team than in the past. "Michigan is doing a great job. I haven't seen them play yet, but go- ing by their record they're a vastly improved team," Stone said. "It will be difficult for any team to come into Ann Arbor and win." Ohio State's roster has also un- dergone some major renovations. Stone starts three first-year players ke home and has no standout performer on his bench. However, this may be an asset rather than a hindrance. "In the past we relied a lot on w: (two-time all-Big Ten) Holly . O'Leary," Stone said. "Now were in an 'everyone has to chip in' mental- ity. We have a more balanced team d this year because of it." The Wolverines (1-1, 9-3) must come right back tomorrow and face,, an unpredictable Indiana squad. The Hoosiers (0-2, 3-10) got their feet,; wet in the Big Ten last week by I playing league favorites Ohio State " and Penn State. "We have signs of being a good team, but our inconsistency is frus- trating for the coaches and the play-', ers," Hoosier coach Tom Shoji said. The Hoosiers' problems stem~ from their setting position. Shoji has two first-year setters, Nikki Valentine and Michelle McElroy, who are fighting for the starting spot. Finding the right combination has been difficult. This position juggling has also affected Indiana's big gun, senior outside hitter Colleen Jordan. Michigan volleyball coach Peggy Bradley-Doppes discusses strategy during a time out in a match last fall. The Wolverines host Ohio State and Indiana in their first two Big Ten home matches this weekend. ' e M~en kickers hope to rebound against Butler JY by Shawn DuFresne 14e Michigan men's soccer club has;put Wednesday's 2-0 loss to Michigan State in the back of its mind. It has no time to dwell on the past. asmorrow, the Wolverines will try to improve their 5-5-1 record when they play host to the Butler junior varsity squad at Mitchell Field at 4 p.m. The club is playing against the JV squad because the Bufltr varsity team is preparing to face the University of Detroit Sun- day "We feel real confident about the match, and we're very eager to scWe goals," co-captain Dick Hilary said. "Butler will probably useafour fullbacks, three midfield- ers and three forwards, which is the style we are familiar with. Our of- fense should be very comfortable during the game." The JV Butler Bulldogs are 1-1 after playing against two St. Louis area community colleges. For the past twoweeks, they have been preparing for the Wolverines. "We've come together as a team very well," Butler forward Steve Peck said. "The team consists of a high number of rookies who didn't know each other when the season began: Our 'never quit' attitude has united us." Peck leads the Bulldogs in scor- ing with two goals. Teammate Mike Roscoe is another , Bulldog that Michigan coach Aaron Smith will be watching carefully. He scored two goals in- a game that was never completed. "I think it's going to be a very competitive game," Butler fullback Bryan Kumler said. "I also predict it to be a low scoring game." However, the Wolverines hope to makesit a landslide, as Michigan forwards Doug Spamer and Reza Sadjadpour will try to crumble the Bulldog defense, which is led by ShanerMoyer, Ken Urakawa, and Kumler. "Hopefully, we can control the game and score a lot of goals," Michigan co-captain Hillary said. "Our major problem is coming through where it counts- scoring. Our defense has been doing a great job. Now we need the offense to kick into gear." Michigan's defensive fullbacks Tim Puckett, Kelly Kuehne, and Scott Seabolt will try to keep the ball out of the backfield, where the net will be protected by goalkeeper Marc Kuiper. "Colleen has had a rough streak with setting problems," Shoji said. "She has been a little frustrated, but she played her two best games in games three and four against Penn i State." aten streak Women look to extend unb by Tim Rardin Coming off a successful showing in Milwaukee last weekend, the Michigan women's soccer team will play at home after six consecutive road games. The team will try to extend its current 13-game un- beaten streak. The Wolverines currently boast an 11-0- 2 record. Michigan was scheduled to face Central Michigan at Mt. Pleasant yesterday, but the match was cancelled and rescheduled for Oct. 22. The squad will host Oak- land University Sunday at 2 p.m. at Mitchell Field. In last weekend's tournament, after a 1-1 tie against Illinois and a scoreless match with Marquette, Michi- gan rallied Sunday to defeat defending national soccer club champs Minnesota, 4-0. In Saturday's two games, the Wolverines outshot their opponents, 29-4. However, they could manage only one goal in the two games. Michigan recovered Sunday scoring four times in only nine attempts esting October against Minnesota. The team finished second to Marquette in the tour- nament. After the tie with the Wolverines, Marquette defeated Illinois and nipped Minnesota 1-0. Wolverine coach Phil Joyaux said that the team,. "played pretty well the whole weekend. Even though we tied the two games, we definitely dominated both. We just weren't putting the ball in the net." Joyaux also noted that the competition in Milwau- kee was better than most of the teams Michigan has faced this season. "When you play against weaker competition, you can be successful based on a difference of skill rather than on teamwork," he said. "(Lack of teamwork) showed this weekend. It took us a while to get back in sync." The Wolverines will look to improve its team unity against Oakland, a squad also participating at the. club level.
