The Michigan Daily- Friday, January 24, 1992 -Page 13 Men spikers hope to avoid further losses Blue wrestles 'Cats in rare road dual by Dan Linna SDaily Sports Writer The losses keep mounting for the Michigan men's volleyball team. While the team experienced its only defeat of this young season last Friday against Michigan State, it also lost its third player. Two players have not returned to school for the winter term and a 'We are facing teams that I feel we are capable of beating.' - Tom Johengen Michigan vollyball coach third recently resigned from the team because of time conflicts. The Wolverines (2-1) have pulled together to compensate for the losses as they get ready to face Iowa and Northwestern in a tri-match tomor- row in the IM building. "We are facing teams that I feel we are capable of beating," Michigan coach Tom Johengen said. "These are must-win matches in the sense that we feel we are a better team, and we don't want to drop matches we feel we should win. We can't afford to lose them." The Wolverines will play in the *first and third matches while the Hawkeyes and Wildcats will square off in the second. Michigan's first round opponent will depend on the travel plans of Iowa and Northwestern. Considering the adversity the Wolverines have faced, they are happy with the progress they have made thus far. However, as evidenced by the loss to Michigan State, there s a need to improve. "In light of trying to reach the goal of winning the Big Ten, it's a matter of continuing to build confi- dence in our abilities," Johengen said. "We need to learn how to stay focused during a match and how to recover from our mistakes. These games are important in that they are all learning opportunities." Michigan scrimmaged a Canadian varsity team, Laurentian University, Monday night and was pleased with the results. While the Wolverines have played very well at times, they are quick to point out that meeting their goals will require consistent improvement. "Our passing is where we need the most improvement," junior Chris Peirce said. "I think it is the most important aspect of the game. When we get into trouble, it is usu- ally because our passing lets down." by Tim Rardin Daily Sports Writer Though the Michigan wrestling team is leaving Ann Arbor for its second of only three away dual meets this season, four Wolverines should feel right at home. Joey Gilbert, Sean Bormet, Jehad Hamdan, and Phil Tomek will all be returning to their home state as Michigan faces the Northwestern Wildcats tomorrow in Evanston. Gilbert, a four-time state cham- pion at Andrews High School in nearby Orland Park, is looking for- ward to the chance to wrestle close to home. "There should be a lot of Michigan fans, because we have some guys on the team that are from around there," Gilbert said. "I'm pretty psyched about it." The ninth-ranked Wolverines, who won last year's meet easily, 31- 9, should have little problem with the Wildcats. But coach Dale Bahr knows that Northwestern has some quality wrestlers, led by all- American Matt Case (190), who is currently ranked 11th in the country. "They have Case returning for them at 190," Bahr said. "They're pretty tough at 150 and 158 in the middle weight classes." Bahr expects to take his usual starting lineup to Evanston, though two tryouts will be held at 118 pounds and 142 pounds. Dan Leemaster, who was unable to make weight for the Michigan State meet, will wrestle Matt Stout for the 118 position. James Rawls, who has been a starter all season for the Wolverines, will go against Mike Ellsworth for the spot at 142 pounds. With the Cliff Keen National Team Duals coming up in two weeks, tomorrow's meet will serve as an ideal opportunity for Michigan to hone its skills. Bahr is pleased with his team's progress thus far. "I think we wrestled very aggres- sively against Michigan State," Bahr said. "We're trying to keep up that intensity because that's the style we want to develop for the rest of the season." The Wolverines, who are 2-0-1 in the Big Ten after victories over Illinois and MSU and a tie with Purdue, probably will improve upon their 6-0-1 overall record. Michigan will be led by four wrestlers who are currently ranked in the top 10. Gilbert (134) is ranked third in the nation, while Brian Harper (150), Bormet (158), and all-American Lanny Green (177) are each No. 9 in their respective weight classes. The men's volleyball team will try to spike Iowa and Northwestern tomorrow afternoon in a tri-meet at the CCRB. Wolverine fencers host first tourney by Greg Richardson The Michigan fencing team has a stiff challenge ahead in its first home meet of the season. The Wolverines host a round-robin tournament tomorrow, squaring off against four varsity squads - Cleveland State, Case Western Reserve, Tri-State and Ohio State. The action begins at 11 a.m. at the Sports Coliseum. With the Buckeyes providing the most formidable competition in the tournament, team confidence is high in regards to the rest of Michigan's opposition. There will be three weapons used at tomorrow's tournament - foil, sabre and epee. Michigan's top male fencers are Phil Issa and Ted Morrison. Issa competes in the foil and prides him- self on his defense. Morrison will duel at epee, where any part of the body is fair game for attacking. The Wolverine women's foilers also expect to match up well to- morrow. Sarah Hipp, the team pres- ident, works with great precision. Leah Beacher has the most experi- ence of the women. She stresses the importance of footwork. The biggest concern among the team is that it doesn't have a full- time coach. Ivo Wenzler, who helps out from time to time, won't be able to coach tomorrow. Yet, Michigan has strong goals for the national scene. "We'd like to win the national championship, but it's a long shot," team treasurer Russ Turner said. "A realistic goal of ours is to make ev- eryone we fence respect us." i Chemistry Students: NEED HELP WITH YOUR CHEMICAL CALCULA TIONS? TM C HEMiCALC The Chemist's Calculator! CAN HELP!
