The Michigan Daily - SPORTSMonday -Monday, October 25, 1993-7 KcersrbounceAlback aainst Facos M° n a * Wolverines overcome small field to blank Bowling Green, 5-0 'S___________ By ELISA SNEED DAILY SPORTS WRITER After a disappointing loss to a lesser opponent, Western Michigan, ruined their record-breaking winning streak, the members of the Michigan women's soccer team showed that they wouldn't let a loss keep them down. The Wolverines again proved themselves to be a formidable soccer power in their 5-0 defeat of Bowling Green yesterday at Mitchell Field. Although the game was held here in Ann Arbor, Michigan didn't actu- ally get to feel the home-field advan- tage. Due to the men's soccer team host- ing the Big Ten tournament this week- end, the women's team was forced to give up their field, for a much smaller one. That, and several other circum- stances made it difficult for the Wol- verines to get into the game. "In the beginning, we weren't re- ally too into it," sweeper Michelle McQuaid said. "The men's team had their cham- pionships, so we had to change fields and we were right in the middle, sur- rounded by all the intramurals. The field was smaller and really torn up." Forward Alicia Stewartadded that the smaller field caused some prob- lems. "The field was really small, so it was a little crowded," Stewart said. "We didn't really bunch but it was hard for us to get the ball across to the, otherside because itwas alot smaller. It was probably 20-30 yards smaller." In addition to playing on an unfa- miliar field, the Wolverines had to compete in uniforms they usually wear for away games. "Bowling Green brought the wrong uniforms, so wehad to change," McQuaid said. "All our stuff was over at the other [regular] field, we had to go get it. It was just really a mess. "It took us almost 25 minutes to 'We played pretty well over all, of course we got the shutout and we did things we'd been working on all season.' - Michelle McQuaid Michigan sweeper score our first goal. It took us longer to get things into place." But once Michigan buckled down and concentrated on the game, things started going their way. "We played pretty well overall, of course we got the shutout and we did things we'd been working on all sea- son," McQuaid said. Michigan finally overcame one of its season-long problems, corner kicks. McQuaid lofted a corner kick up right in front of the goal and midfielder Lynda Hart was able to come across the goal and headed it in to the upper right corner. That goal got Michigan started and4hree more Wolverines -Nicola Armster, Lisa Ashton, and Stewart,- added tallies in the remaining 20 min- utes of the first half. The final Michi- gan goal came in the second stanza off an assist by Stewart to forward Maria Marcus. Unfortunately for the Wolverines, this game couldn't be their 17th win in a row, but Stewart indicated that their loss had in a way helped them. "We were aware of it, and keeping it in the back of our minds helped," she said. "We knew it was possible to lose, and that we had to work hard if we wanted to win." Michigan travels to Ypsilanti Thursday to take on Eastern Michi- gan for the second time this season. The Wolverines won the first meet- ing between the two teams, 9-0, at Mitchell Field Oct. 7. ro _EVAN PETRIEJ/aity The Michigan women's soccer team beat Bowling Green yesterday, 5-0.

SUGIURA Continued from page 3 coaches and professors at those schools will be a negative influence on student-athletes? . Of course not, but the option still makes all the sense in the world. Start out at ajunior college, brush up on the study techniques and then go to a Division I school. If a student does not show the potential to not only stay eligible but also to graduate, he or she shouldn't be admitted. True, no inner-city youth deserves to live in such a decrepit environment. But that doesn't mean he should be allowed into the Division I university of his choice, particulaly when there are many other schools that might better serve his needs. College is for learning, not for getting away from the city for four years, which is what student-athletes will effectively be doing if they aren't able to handle the classwork and don't earn a diploma. After all, from 1983 to 1986, Black basketball players graduated from Division I colleges at a rate of 32 percent. Until this is raised to a percentage closer to that of the rest of the student body, no effort should be made to admit more academically- deficient student-athletes. That is the best call any coach couldmake. sTaTo STFee"T F;ORTS , rtett t' aswee" c&r4 4ftt,ee adidas cLU.1 H/ Nickels Arcade at State St. 761-7615 1 Olt oji The Global Leader The KPMG Peat Marwick Foundation is pleased to announce that - mb I L .L IA -
