PRESS Officials fear Blue falls to IU, 89-74 Hoosiers' free throws make the difference ni ght's by Matthew Dodge Daily Basketball Writer wrath BLOOMINGTON - Bob Knight has eyes like a video camera. They see everything, they never lie, and they could convict a referee of every crime imaginable on a basketball court. A video camera does not make exceptions for human error. When a subject makes a mistake, the camera tells all. Bob Knight is no different. Every game at Assembly *Hall, the volatile Indiana coach convicts one victim for committing some grievous error. Last night, the victim was referee Ed Hightower. Mr. Ed picked a fight with the wrong man in Indiana's 89-74 victory over Michigan. He called a reaching foul on star Hoosier Calbert Cheaney four minutes into the game. It seemed harmless enough. ESPN called an official timeout. Mr. Ed walked back onto the court. Then the optical fireworks began. Eye contact with Knight is like being yelled at by the average person. He knows how to grab one's atten- tion. Knight stood through the entire timeout, glaring relentlessly at Hightower. See HOOSIERS, Page 10 by Albert Lin Daily Basketball Writer BLOOMINGTON - The full effect of Michigan's 89-74 loss to Indiana last night will certainly be felt as the season continues. In a pos- itive manner. The Wolverines (2-3 in the Big Ten, 10-4 overall) discovered added depth that allowed them to play with the No. 4 team in the country. Despite rookie Juwan Howard's second consecutive strong outing - his best of the year with 26 points and 10 rebounds - Indiana's pa- tience and execution proved to be too much. The Hoosiers (5-0, 14-2) committed no turnovers in the first half and only eight for the game. If the Hoosiers couldn't get a good shot, they would still find a way to get to the free throw line. Although they shot 66 percent from the line, compared to Michigan's 88 percent, they had 50 attempts to only 16 for the Wolverines. Down 47-35 at halftime, the Wolverines opened the second half by asserting their dominance inside. Howard and Chris Webber scored all of Michigan's points during a 16-6 run. Howard's 10 in the surge in- cluded two baskets off the offensive glass, while Webber's half-dozen included two banked free throws. "I thought Michigan really played excellent inside offense," Indiana coach Bob Knight said. "They got us jammed in there and did a really good job. All their re- bound baskets were just a good job of getting us in tight, going up and getting the ball, and putting it back in." With the score 53-51, Indiana be- gan laying off Michigan's guards, not allowing them to enter the ball to Howard and Webber in the post. The Wolverines' outside shooting was not on, and Indiana went on a 16-6 run of its own to push the lead back up to 12 with 8:49. Michigan began to find its out- side shooting, hitting three consecu- tive 3-pointers (two by Michael Talley and one by Rob Pelinka) to stay in the game. This forced Indiana to challenge Michigan's guards once again, and Howard went back to work. He sandwiched two free throws and a three-point play around a Jalen Rose three to bring Michigan within three at 73-70 with under five minutes left. "I have the attitude that I want to win all the time, that's the main thing," Howard said. But the Wolverines could get no closer, as Indiana scored a quick six in a row and continued to make trips to the foul line to keep the game out of reach. Howard had 17 points and seven rebounds in the second half, as Michigan stayed in the game despite leading scorer Rose's off night. Rose's first basket of the game was the 3-pointer, which came with 5:57 left in the game. It was Indiana's fifth victory in 13 days.

Three rookies helped the Wolver- ines edge out the Hoosiers, 58-57, and roll over the Wildcats, 95-31. In triangular scoring, the final scores were Michigan 59, Indiana 57, Ken- tucky 21. Frosh Karen Harvey posted a ca- *eer and personal best time of 9:50.6 in the 3000 meter. The Lady Wolverine Award for outstanding performance went to first-year stu- dent Bryn Girch in field and transfer student Kristi Westerby in track. Girch won the triple jump with a distance of 31 feet 7 1/2 inches and finished fourth in the high jump with a jump of 5-2 1/2. Westerby won the 600 meter with a time of 1:34.6, one second off the Michigan record. "Everyone helped out and this was really a team win," Wolverine coach James Henry said. "Everyone who scored a point made a differ- ence, not just the winners. We all feel good about beating the defend- ing Big Ten champs on there own track. We are very enthusiastic about the future. We had a good meet and got off to a good start." Harvey expected a better show- ing from Kentucky and felt Indiana is not as deep as they have been in re- cent years. "We have a large team with both depth and quality," Henry said. "Our depth should prove beneficial in the conference championship." On the men's side, the Wolver- ines were victorious over Kentucky, 86-23, but fell prey to Big Ten fa- vorites Indiana 92-30. In triangular scoring, it was Indiana 97, Michigan 43, Kentucky 9. "We didn't run especially well," coach Jack Harvey said. "We are weak in the sprints and we really have to work on that area." Michigan had a lot of third- and fourth-place finishes but posted only two first-place finishes. Pole vaulter Brad Darr leaped to a NCAA provisional qualifying height of 17-3 3/4 inches. Greg Duffy recorded a winning time of 1:20.09 in the 600 meter. "This was the first meet so you can't get too depressed, but we do need better performances from some of our lower-place finishers," Har- vey said. "Indiana is good but we should have scored more points." Harvey believes the team is bet- ter than it performed and feels he will see improvement as the season progresses. The Wolverines hope to see that improvement this week in their quadrangular meet against Penn State, Michigan State, and Ohio State. The women will face Toledo and Kent State.

The Wolverines competed against sev- eral eastern teams, including Boston University, Babson College, and *Green Mountain University. The Michigan women's team overcame the freezing weather con- ditions, a wind chill of 15 to 20 de- grees below zero, and extremely icy slopes to capture first place overall. Lisa Witty was the top finisher for the Wolverines with a fourth- place finish in the slalom. Sara MacKeigan and Kelly Copeland fin- ished sixth and eighth, respectively. Amy Portenga raced to a fifth-place finish in the giant slalom, followed closely by Kelly Copeland and Lisa Witty with sixth- and eighth-place finishes. "The trip to New Hampshire was very beneficial. It gave us a chance to see how we stacked up against teams from other regions," Copeland said. "We encountered longer runs and many different con- ditions. The weekend was a lot of fun, and we were really excited to win." The change of environment brought the men skiers several weekend hardships. As if arctic con- ditions were not shocking enough, they also had to deal with a foreign set of rules. In Michigan, teams race five skiers and take the three best times, whereas most Eastern teams race 10 skiers and take the top five times. Therefore, when two Michigan skiers fell, they were forced to use those low times any- way. Tim Sattelmeier was the top fin- isher for the men with a 10th-place finish in the slalom. Kevin Gietzen and Mike Johnson came in 23rd and 28th respectively. Sattelmeier led the Wolverine pack again in the gi- ant slalom with a fifth-place finish while Kevin Gietzen tallied a sev- enth-place finish. Chris Holmes rounded out the Wolverine finish- ers. ~OFF-CAMPUS HOUSING DAY Thursday, January 23, noon-4 pm BALLROOM, MICHIGAN UNION Nursing students: Prepare for:the future Begin your career at St. Joseph Mercy Hospital and prepare for a successful future in nursing.
