Washington St. --- -- ---------______________ Michigan Daily Athlete-of-the-Week --.............................. .. -- - - -.- -. - - - - - - -- - ---- Szabo WHO: Chris Szabo TEAM: Cross Country HOMETOWN: Worthington, Ohio YEAR: Junior ELIGIBILITY: Junior WHY: Chris Szabo led the Michigan women's cross country team to its first ever Big Ten championship Saturday at Champaign. The Wolverines beat out runner-up Iowa by 43 points. Szabo finished third with a time of 17:09. Tracy Morris of Iowa and Claire Eichner of Wisconsin edged Szabo out for the top two places. BACKGROUND: In 1991, Szabo won the Michigan Athletic Academic Achievement Award ... selected to the 1991 academic alI-Big Ten team ... finished 23rd at last year's Big Ten in a time of 18:54.5 ... finished 30th her freshman year at the Big Tens ... qualified for NCAA championships also in 1990 and finished in 146th place with a season- best time of 18:26 ...-all-state two times in high school. WHO: Matt Smith TEAM: Cross Country HOMETOWN: Westland YEAR: Senior ELIGIBILITY: Senior WHY: In Saturday's Big Ten cross country championships at Illinois, Smith paced the Wolverines to a second- place finish behind Wisconsin. Smith was Michigan's top finisher, coming in third place with a time of 24:06. MEN Continued from page 1 By virtue of finishing in third place, senior Matt Smith made the all-Big Ten team. The top seven fin- ishers earned all-conference honors. Smith's time of 24:06 marked his season s best. Scott MacDonald just missed out on all-Big Ten honors, finishing in ninth place, but as the first freshman to cross the finish line, he was hon- ored as Big Ten Cross Country Freshman of the Year. "I tried not to think about it be- fore the race," MacDonald said. "Everyone told me it was possible but it was in the back of my mind during the race." Theo Molla, another Michigan freshman, came close to winning the award as well. "I knew going in that Theo and I both had a shot at it," MacDonald said. MacDonald finished with a time of 24:25. Molla's 20th place finish, with a time of 25:08, helped cement second place for Michigan. Third- place finisher Penn State was 47 points behind Michigan at 109. "It went pretty well for me," Molla said. "I thought my time and my place were where they should have been." The flat course at Illinois played a factor in the faster-than-normal times. "It was a lot faster than I thought it would be," Molla said. "I thought that it started out slowly," MacDonald said, "but when I heard the first split it was pretty fast." Sophomores Jim Finlayson and Ian Forsyth were the two other top finishers for Michigan. Finlayson's time of 24:53 was good enough for 14th place and Forsyth's time of 24:59 placed him 16th. "I thought we ran pretty well," Michigan coach Ron Warhurst said. "We were stronger at the end, but we need to be a lot quicker at the begin- ning." The Wolverines now look for- ward to the district championships in two weeks at Bloomington. In0 preparation, they will have a hard week of practice before toning it down the week before the race. The district and national champi- onships are run on a longer course than the normal 8,000-meter dis- tance. "We're moving up to 10,000 me- ters so for (Theo and me) it will be a little tougher," said MacDonald. The Wolverines will have to fin- ish in the top three to advance to the National Championships a week later in Bloomington. "I think we have a good chance of. being in the top three and going on to nationals," said Molla.

"It was the greatest feel- ing in the world." At about the 3,000-meter mark, McGuire knew his team was in a position to win the meet. Behind Szabo was the pack of Karen Harvey, Courtney Babcock and Kelly Chard.. Harvey finished fourth overall and said that the meet was very emotional. "It was one of the best days of my life," Harvey said. "The condi- tions were right and we did it. When the four of us (Szabo, Harvey, Bab- cock and Chard) were done, we knew we won," At the finish line the celebration began. "Amy was there with her mom," Harvey said. ' They started towards us crying and cheering, then every- one started bawling. I was too busy screaming to cry." Harvey commented on how well she, Babcock and Chard worked in the pack, helping each other out with words of encouragement, and pacing each other. Chard also saw teamwork as the key to victory. 4a1 .I
