shot advantage for the first half with
the only Crusader shot coming off of
a direct free kick.
The second half saw more of the
same, with the Wolverines dominat-
ing play. Every player on the Michi-
gan squad saw action, and the Wol-
verines outshot Valparaiso, 17-2.
The lone goal of the half was scored
by Michigan senior Carrie Taylor.
The goal was her first as a varsity
player and was particularly sweet.
"I've been waiting for a long time
and it felt really good," Taylor said.
"I'm a senior and I'd played on the club
team for three years. It's just really nice
to get in the varsity record books."
The Crusaders have played a num-
ber of prominent programs this sea-
son and Valparaiso coach Ceyhun
Ozgur feels the Wolverines will be
extremely competitive.
"They're probably the best first-
year program I've ever seen," Ozgur
said. "They're very strong on the ball,
they win a lot of first balls, and they
have several players with good touches.
They're going to be very good."
Belkin hopes they will be very goo
when they face Big Ten foes North-
western on Friday and Wisconsin on
Sunday. Both games are on the road.
"The win is important because we
got everyone involved," Belkin said.
"Everyone works hard in practice and
everyone needs to contribute. We've
got two big games coming up, and
both teams are well coached, so we'll
need everyone to be ready."
It wouldn't hurt if they were angry
as well.
