HOCKEY NOTEBOIJK
By DARREN EVERSON
Daily Hockey Writer
The Michigan-Michigan State rivalry usually brings out the best in both
teams. Not coincidentally, it always seems to bring out the worst in individual
players, as off-ice Wolverine-Spartan friendships have to be set aside.
Jason Botterill and Anson Carter are one such pair.
The Wolverine center and Spartan winger played junior hockey together in
Canada, winning a gold medal in the process. That teamwork seems hard to
believe, though, with the way the two tangled after play had been stopped during
Friday's game.
The tussle proved just what the rivalry can do to people.
"That's truein any rivalry, but especially Michigan-Michigan State," Botterill
said. "This is a big game for both teams and you can talk about things and have
a good time after the game.
"But out there on the ice it's war against everybody."
Likewise, Carter wasn't all too worried about what took place.
"We get along great off the ice, but (the scuffle) isjust the rivalry," Carter said.
"Anytime you put on the Green & White sweater and face Michigan it's going to
be like that."
PINE TIME: Michigan right wing Mike Knuble earned apoint in the first period
against Bowling Green, assisting on Brendan Morrison's power-play goal. This
is especially noteworthy because it could be his last point in a little while.

Men's team bestedl

Coming off a second-place finish
at the Big Ten Championships last
weekend, the Michigan men's cross
country team competed in the NCAA
District IV Championships at Purdue
Saturday. The Wolverines needed to
finish in one of the top three spots in
order to qualify for next week's NCAA
Championships at Arkansas.
The team finished second overall,
with three runners placing in the top
10. Michigan again fell victim to
Wisconsin, which has now kept it out
of the top spot in the last two meets.
The Wolverines earned 55 points, fall-
ing short of the Badgers' 33.
All-American sophomore Kevin
Sullivan led Michigan's individual
runners by placing first with a time of
30 minutes, 31 seconds. This is the
second straight year that Sullivan has
won the 10-kilometer meet.
"I'm very pleased with how the
race turned out," Sullivan said. "As a
team we ran well again and had an-
other good performance."
Other individual runners included
junior All-American Scott
MacDonald, who placed fourth in the
meet with a time of 30:44. Senior
team captain Ian Forsyth came in sixth
with a time of 30:52.
Improvements were made by
Michigan's fourth and fifth spot runners.
Junior Theo Molla placed 16th in 31:23,
and sophomore Dave Bamett came in
28th, up from his 42nd-place finish at last
week's meet, with a time of 31:49.
"This was our best race yet for
most on the team," Molla said. "We're
only improving and hopefully it will
show at nationals next week."
As for Wisconsin edging out a
victory over the Wolverines again,
the team has mixed reactions.
"Wisconsin is a great team, and
'This was our best race
yet for most on the
team.'

losing to them is really not a big deal,"
Sullivan said. "They are beatable and
hopefully we'll be able to win over
them at nationals."
Michigan will be ranked sixth na-
tionally coming in to the tournament,
while Wisconsin will be No. 2.

D: What are the odds of Mike Tyson
reclaiming the heavyweight boxing
title?
S: Tyson will be favored in his
next fight. If he comes out of prison in
Call 1-800-KAP-TEST to
shape and gets a tune-up bout, he'd be
a huge favorite over Foreman. He'd
beat him senseless.
Let's say he gets an early re-
lease, fights Foreman in 90 days,
I'd make him a 8-1 or 10-1 favorite
to destroy Foreman. Against other
heavyweights, he'd be at least 4-1,
5-1.
D: Let's move to the political ring.
What are President Clinton's odds to
win a second term in office?
S: In spite of what you read
(about Clinton's popularity), I would
not make him an underdog. I think
Clinton is even money to be re-
elected.
I haven't seen any Republicans
that (would make great candidates).
If the election was held right now,
he wouldn't win, but two years is a
lot of time.
D: Who would be the top Republi-
can challengers?
S: Jack Kemp would be one of the
favorites. He'd be 3:1 against to win
the Republican nomination, 5:1 to
win the whole thing. Bob Dole 7:1 to

win the nomination, 15:1 to become
the next President. There's a lot of
people who could give Clinton a run
for the money.
D: Colin Powell?
S: I think Powell would be an
excellent choice at Vice President. I
don't think he's electable in 1996 (as
President). If he ran Republican, as
Vice President, with any legitimate
Republican candidate, they'd have a
pretty good chance at beating Clinton,
close to even.
It's not because he's black (that
he couldn't run for President), I just
don't think the public's perception
of a general is the same as when
Eisenhower won. Powell would gen-
erate more votes than Norman
Schwarzkopf. People don't think
Powell is as militaristic as
Schwarzkopf.
Powell would be 100:1 to win
the nomination, 500:1 to win the
Presidency. Schwarzkopf 250:1 to
win the nomination, 1,000:1 to win
it all.
D: What about Dan Quayle?
S: If Quayle was elected, I would
leave the United States. I would seri-
ously consider leaving the country. I
don't want to think about the odds of
him winning.
