No.I Michiganmten a ssink Wsin Wolverines claim latest victim as they race past the Badgers, 172-68 By JENNIFER DUBERSTEIN Daily Sports Writer TheMichigan men's swimming and diving team is stirring a massive tidal wave, sucking in all of its opponents. Saturday, the Wolverines drowned their latest victim, Wisconsin. Michigan, ranked No. 1 nationally, crushed the Badgers, 172-68, at Canham Natatorium in the confer- ence dual-meet. The Wolverines were confident going into the meet. "I wanted to give everybody an Opportunity to swim without any stress because the competition wasn't there," Urbanchek said. The Wolverines used this meet to polish their swimming by working on being in control. Sophomore Tom Dolan won the 1,000-yard freestyle with a time of 9:14.23, a full nine seconds faster than the rest of the field. Dolan also swam the 200-yard breaststroke, plac- ing second to senior teammate Steve West. Urbanchek gave some Wolverines 1 wanted to give everybody an opportunity to swim without any stress.' - John Urbanchek Michigan coach the chance to swim events other than their specialties. "I hurt my shoulder on Wednes- day and I haven't been able to do a full stroke," Dolan said commenting on his performance. "I wasn't looking for much because of my shoulder." Dolan hurt his left shoulder while lifting weights earlier in the week. He said he almost sat out of the Wisconsin meet in order for his shoulder to heal. Even with his aching shoulder, Dolan, cur- rently in the running for NCAA Swimmer of the Year, still man- aged to perform successfully. Senior Gustavo Borges also swam well, defeating his competition in the 50-yard freestyle and as a part of the 400 medley and 400 freestyle relay teams. Urbanchek was also pleased with freshmen Owen von Richter and Derya Buyukuncu. In the 500 freestyle, von Richter placed sec- ond to teammate Jon Piersma. Von Richter came in third, just two seconds behind Piersma, in the 200 freestyle. He also placed third in the 200 fly, again coming in two seconds after the leader, Michigan junior Royce Sharp. Buyukuncu swam in both win- ning medley teams and came in first in the 100 free, edging out Wolverine Chris Rumley. "The freshmen are adjusting in the water exceptionally well," Urbanchek said of his highly-touted recruiting class. Wisconsin served as a warm-up for Michigan. The Wolverines meet powerhouse Texas this week. According to Urbanchek, "Texas is red hot." The meet next weekend at Canham will be a showdown between two of the most heralded teams in the nation. With the Wisconsin meet down, the Wolverines will spend this week training for the Texas meet, so they can attempt to prove who really is the "red hot" team. By DANIELLE RUMORE Daily Sports Writer The women's cross country team had three goals in mind at the start of the 1994 season: It wanted to capture its third straight Big Ten Title, its second straight District IV tittle, and finish in the top four nationally at the end of the season. The Wolverines are well on their way to satisfying each goal. They have won their third Big Ten title, are cur- rently maintaining a top four status in the country, and Saturday captured their second District IV championship at Purdue. The win not only brought Michi- gan closer to its goals and add to a long list of victories, but guaranteed it a bid for the NCAA championships Nov. 22 at Arkansas. Two sets of Wolverine runners posed double trouble for the champion- ship competition Saturday. Twins Deanna and Pauline Arnill captured the second (17:19) and third (17:21) place spots. Karen Harvey and Jessica Kluge captured the seventh (17:28) and eighth (17:29) overall spots, respectively. Michigan's strategy to run in a pack allowed it to place four runners in the top ten. The biggest competition. was Wisconsin's top runner, Kathy Butler. A groupofWolverines,ledbyDeannaAmill, went out and ran alongside Butler. Butler captured the top spot with a time of 17:05 en route to the Badger second-place finish. Butler seized control of the top spot as she out- muscled the Wolverine pack and over- came Deanna Arnill at the three kilo- meter mark. "The first three kilometers, there was a lot of elbowing," said Deanna. "At the point when (Butler) took off, it was too hard to stay with her. I didn't have a big enough kick." Wolverine head coach Mike McGuire said that the pace along with the softness of the course added to the difficulty of the race. "The course was pretty fast," said Pauline Arnill. "It was fairly soft so it* didn't run as fast. It really hurt." Other Michigan finishers included Eileen Fleck (12th overall, 17:50), Katy Hollbacher (19th, 18:01), and Molly Lori (29th, 18:14). Michigan has raced throughout the majority of the season without All- American Courtney Babcock,' who has been sidelined with a nagging leg injury. McGuire said he is pleased with the team's effort thrbughout the@o season and the leadership on the team, especially with senior Jessica Kluge. "The (finishes) go back and forth, but we have been consistent as ateam," McGuire said. "Jessica has provided excellent leadership. I can't say enough good things about her." McGuire said the team will not be completely finished with its goals until after the NCAA championship be cause rankings can change so quickly. . "Anything can happen," said McGuire. "The top four is more real- istic, but if we keep running solid we are capable of fourth or better."
