The Michigan Daily - Tuesday, April 19, 1994 - 21 ACROSSE Continued from page 16 the Badger power-play off the board. After allowing Chicago to score five of its seven goals with a man advan- tage, the Michigan special teams unit held Wisconsin to a mere three goals on i11 power-play chances. The Wolverines - seeded first in their bracket of the tournament - had to go through Chicago and Northern Illinois to get to the finals, and did so without a hitch, winning the first game, 14-7, and the second, 14-3. In case you were wondering why Michigan had to play these two non- conference opponents in the confer- ence tournament, it's simple: Chi- cago replaced Illinois in the Big Cen West division, because the Illini had to replace Ohio State's club team in the East division. Northern Illinois replaced Min- nesota in the tournament three years ago, when the Gophers were no longer able to field a team. The Huskies defeated Illinois in the first round of the tournament, earning the right to play the Wol- yerines. In the other bracket, top-seeded Wisconsin knocked off hapless In- diana, while Purdue beat Northwest- ern. The Boilermakers kept up with the Badgers in their semifinal matchup for more than 59 minutes, with Wisconsin scoring the game- winner with only 20 seconds to play. Michigan beat Purdue 9-6 ear- ier in the season, so the close game with Wisconsin came as no surprise to the team. "We didn't really have to hustle all year,"DiGiovanni said. "But the guys came out hard (against Wis- consin) and played with great inten- sity." Simich paced the Wolverines for the tournament with 10 points on #seven goals and three assists. Henke had nine goals, while se- nior midfielder Ivan Frank had six points on a goal and five assists, only two weeks after returning from a knee injury, suffered on the spring break trip to Florida. Although the Wolverines will be losing a number of players to gradu- ation, there may be yet another Big A7en championship in Michigan's fu- ure. Netminder Anil Arora has at least three years left, and two of the team's top scorers - sophomore Reichel and freshman Bill Argersinger - are underclassmen. WOMEN Continued from page18 195.35 scored on two occasions this season easily broke a school record of 193.45 set last season. In addition, Michigan captured its third consecu- tive Big Ten conference title after edging out Penn State by .775. Freshman Andrea McDonald was selected Big Ten Freshman of the Year after a stellar start to her Wol- verine career. Although she is travel- ing to her first collegiate national com- petition, McDonald is ready to chal- lenge the more experienced competi- tion. "While Super Six is our goal and top six is great, we'd like to climb as high as we can in the top six," McDonald said. "When we go out there, we're focused on what we have to do gymnastically, rather than academically. There's not much you can do about your academics out in Utah." The uneven bars have been a weak spot in the Wolverines' routine this season. Marshall will lead off for Michigan on the bars Thursday, but past mishaps have not hampered her attitude. "I've already taken the pressure of myself in practice," Marshall said. "At Nationals, with the top gym- nasts in the nation, I guess it would make you nervous, but I get more excited." As the Wolverines finished their final practice yesterday, they com- pleted both individual and team ses- sions to build up both confidence and endurance. Last week, they practiced dry runs, with crowd noise and scor- ing. "The crowd may not be for us, but you can think of it that way," Wymer said. "It helps us think that we're not the center of attention and that's not as much pressure for us." During both practice runs, the squad scored above 195, a score which it would be more than happy to post this week. "If we go all out, there's nothing to lose," Marshall said. "We have one day of competition, and that is going to make us go to the next day. If we do what we can, we could be No. I going into (Friday)." Friesz, Jones opt for new NFL teams for next fal ASSOCIATED PRESS John Friesz became a Washington Redskin on Monday and Sean Jones: became a Green Bay Packer as NFL teams continued their shakedown to get ready for Sunday's draft. Friesz, the San Diego Chargers' one-time starter, signed a one-year, $900,000 deal with Washington, where he's expected to be a short- term stand-in for the quarterback the' 'Skins take with the third pick in the draft - either Heath Shuler of Ten- nessee or Trent Dilfer of Fresno State. "They said John will have a real opportunity to compete for the start- ing job," said Friez's agent, Leigh Steinberg. Steinberg said Friesz was told the Redskins intended to take Shuler or Dilfer. Monday at midnight was the dead- line for restricted free agents to sign with new teams. Alvin Harper, who had been mull- ing an offer from the Pittsburgh Steelers, seemed set to stay with Dal- las because the Steelers were unwill- ing to give up the first- and third- round picks it would have taken. As with Friesz, unrestricted free agents kept moving. The most notable was Jones, the 31-year-old pass rushing specialist who the Packers hope will reduce the double-teaming that Reggie White faced last year. Jones, who had 13 sacks last year, will get $7.8 million over three years. The Packers lost another pass- rusher, linebacker Tony Bennett, to Indianapolis earlier this spring. . WING IT!
