The Michigan Daily - Friday, September 6, 1991-Page 23 y Voskuil takes European vacation by Chris Carr Daily Sports Writer Michigan forward James Voskuil was not expecting too much out of his summer. After spending the previous summer nurs- ing an injured foot and rebuilding a jeep during his spare time, Voskuil was just looking for the chance to play a lot of basketball to get ready for the upcoming season. He got that chance along with an added bonus: two weeks in Europe. Voskuil, a junior from Grand V Rapids who led the Wolverines in three-point field goal percentage last season (44.7 percent), was the Michigan representative on a Big Ten All-Star team which toured Sweden and Finland, playing against club teams for two weeks in Au- gust. "When (Michigan coach Steve) Fisher asked me if I wanted to play on the team, I accepted the invita- tion right away" Voskuil said. "It was an opportunity to play on an All-Star team and see Europe for free. How could you pass that up?" The team was coached by Wis- consin coach Steve Yoder and fin- ished 7-2. Voskuil started three of the nine games and averaged 6.7 points per game. He led the team with 19 points in a 120-95 victory over KTP-Kotka, a club team from Finland. "I played pretty well, but the level of play was nothing compared to the Big Ten," Voskuil said. "The biggest difference was the officiat- ing. Everything was being called, which was a lot different from the Big Ten. Sometimes they would ini- tiate the contact, but it seemed that every call went against us." While the trip provided Voskuil with the opportunity to work on his game and do some sightseeing, it also gave him the chance to strike friendships with various Big Ten Please send me information on the Coast Guard Officer Candidate School Name Michigan forward James Voskuil spent the summer honing his skills against European competition.

"The best part of the trip was meeting all of the guys and being able to have a good time," Voskuil said. "We spent a lot of time talk- ing about the different tactics our coaches use. It was interesting to hear Scott Pierce's story about how Gene Keady made them practice for an hour and a half after a loss."
