Hockey vs. Ferris State Friday, 7 p.m. Big Rapids S S Football vs. Wisconsin Saturday, Noon (ESPN) Michigan Stadium HOCKEY NOTEBOOK Yost sets yet another record Old rival provided opposition for ice arena's 400th ~~N R-~~- ~~ ~~ ~ ~~ ~ ^ - By MELANIE SCHUMAN Daily Hockey Writer Michigan played its 400th game in Yost Ice Arena Friday night, during its 22nd season in this venue. The Wolverines' record now stands at 252-133-16 in 401 games. The arena, named after Michigan legend Fielding H. Yost, was built in 1924 as a fieldhouse (and formerly named such) to host several varsity sports including track nd basketball. Once the nation's second largest college- owned rink in the country seating 8,100, Yost's seating was reduced to the current capacity of 7,235. Yost himself coached the football team for 25 seasons, leading the Wovlerines to eight Big Ten titles and four national championships. As his coaching tenure was drawing to a close, he became Michigan's first Director of Athletics. Fortunately for Yost, he was not around to see the first- ever strawberry pie eating contest held Friday night. This is the first in a new series of between-period contests *ponsored by the athletic department. In the near future, fans will have a chance to participate in Human Score-O and other adventurous contests. MISSING PERSONS: At Monday's practice, right wing Mike Knuble was on the bench. Dressed in shorts and a practice jersey, all he could do was sit and watch as his teammates skated. Senior Alan Sinclair and sophomore Chris Frescoln, both defensemen, were at the hospital Monday instead of Yost Ice Arena to undergo a series of tests. The results of these evaluations will provide doctors with comparative *ata in analyzing the results of tests Knuble underwent for a chest infection. The similar builds of Sinclair (6 feet 4) and Frescoln (6 feet 2) to Knuble (6 feet 2) was the reason the pair was selected. Sophomore Mike Legg, having been sick since Sun- day with the flu, was absent. He did show up, but the coaches told him not to dress. With only 11 forwards, defenseman Mark Sakala moved up to right wing, skating on the third line with center John Madden and left wing freshman Matt Herr. S Center Kevin Hilton left practice with a sore back, but should play this weekend at Ferris State. ONE-FOR-Two: The Wolverines have only scored one goal in the second period thus far this season. Ironically, this was their most successful 20 minutes last year, tally- ing 74 goals in 41 games. After scoring five goals in the first period of its contest against York University, Michigan took until midway through the third to find the back of the net again. This past weekend, Michigan notched three goals in the first period of both games against Colorado College, but only during Saturday's 5-4 last-second victory did the team manage to beat the Tigers' goaltender in the second stanza. A SORTED PAST: Although Michigan's home stand with Colorado College provided fans with their first opportunity to see the WCHA champion Tigers, Michigan has a history with them. Colorado defeated Michigan in the 1957 NCAA Finals, 13-6, and the two battled during the Wolverines' championship seasons of 1952 and 1955. Overall, Michigan leads the series 55-34-3. JONATHAN LURIE/Daily ;higan Michigan forward Kevin Hilton (10) has tallied two goals and assisted on five others in three games this season. ...................... Michigan tops conference after tournament By MICHELLE LEE THOMPSON Daily Sports Writer The Michigan men's water polo team (15-7) came out of last weekend's Indiana Invitational with Ahree wins, one loss and the top standing in the Big Ten. The Wolverines won their first three matches in the round-robin tournament against Michigan State, Missouri and Indiana. However, Michigan dropped its fourth match, 11-10, to a tough Northwestern of- fense. Cone edges NEW YORK (AP) -David Cone, coming off the worst season of his career, bounced back to again beat out former teammate Jimmy Key in a close vote Tuesday for the AL Cy Young Award. Cone, 16-5 with a 2.94 ERA for *he Kansas City Royals, won the award despite not leading the league in any pitching category. Key, 17-4 with a 3.27 ERA for the New York Yankees, led the majors in wins. Cone received 15 of 28 first-place votes and finished with 108 points in balloting by the Baseball Writers The Wolverines' offense took shots against the Wildcats that were similar to efforts they had performed numerous times earlier. However, Michigan was unable to make good on many of them. "Our defense was solid but our offense was a little off," Wolverine coach Scott Russell said. However, Michigan's offense certainly provided more firepower in the first three rounds of the tour- nament, which Russell billed as a precursor to the upcoming confer- ence tournament. The Wolverines won their first match convincingly against Michi- gan State, docking the Spartans 18- 10. Michigan followed with a 18-11 victory over Missouri. In the third round, the Wolverines beat the host Hoosiers, 16-8. "We played extremely well in the first three games," Russell said. Sophomore Louis Lambert scored 15 goals in the tournament. Senior Drew Hanz was sccond with 14 goals and led in assists with 10. Senior Mark Lefko also contributed to the effort, racking up seven tal- lies. At the close of the regular sea- son, the Wolverines are in first place in the Big Ten. They will receive the highest seed at the conference tournament, scheduled for Nov. 4-6 at Northwestern. Junior co-captain Jason Cunningham was the regular season's high scorer, with 45 tal- lies. He also assisted on eight shots over the weekend. It's not easy being Black & White! \ CCo Key for AL Cy Young Association of America. Key got 10 first-place votes and 96 points. Randy Johnson, 13-6 with a 3.19 ERA and a major league-leading 204 strikeouts for the Seattle Mariners, received two first-place votes and fin- ished third with 24 points. Mike Mussina, 16-5 with a 3.06 ERA for the Baltimore Orioles, got one first- place vote and was fourth with 23 points. Greg Maddux won his record third straight Cy Young with a unanimous victory in the NL voting Tuesday. The AL MVP will be announced Thursday. Cone struck out 132 in 23 games before the players' strike started Aug. 12. Key fanned 97 in 24 games. Cone and Key pitched together for the Toronto Blue Jays for the last two months of the 1992 season. Cone, acquired in late August in a trade from the New York Mets, bumped Key out of manager Cito Gaston's playoff rotation, making two starts while Key was left in the bullpen. Cone also started ahead of Key in the World Series.
