A: 6,731 Schock gives Notre Dame cold shoulder By Mark Snyder and Dan Stillman Daily Sports Writers EAST LANSING - Neither player involved thought the hit was anything out of the ordinary. Unfortunately, for Michigan defense- man Harold Schock, the officials didn't see it through his eyes. Midway through the second period against Notre Dame on Friday, Schock leaned in with his shoulder and crushed Irish sophomore Aniket Dhadphale into the boards. 13' Following the check, Dhadphale crumpled to the ice. Notebook While he wasn't injured, Schock did not get off lightly. Immediately, he was slapped with a five- minute major penalty for hitting from behind. He also received a game mis- conduct - an automatic ejection from the game. Schock initially asked the official whether he would be allowed to play the following night at Michigan State. The referee said he would - if Schock left the ice without further incident. The defenseman bit his tongue and vented his frustration by cracking his stick against the wall as he left the ice. Dhadphale did not feel Schock intended to hurt him. "I turned, and he hit me," he said. "It's my fault, though, I shouldn't have turned (away) like that." Schock also saw nothing wrong with the play. "I definitely don't think the penalty deserved a major," Schock said. "It looked a lot worse than it was. I was going to bump him off the puck. I'd do the same thing if the situation came up (again)." The penalty didn't end up hurting Michigan too much. It killed off most of the shorthanded time, allowing only one goal in the five-minute span. As for Dhadphale, he returned to the game to record a goal and an assist, showing no ill-effects of Schock's check. THEY 15ID IT AGAIN: Saturday nights last-minute, game-winning goal by Michigan State's Bryan Adams ended the Wolverines' quest to set the school record for consecutive victories. Michigan tied the record of 15 with its 6-3 win over Notre Dame the previous night. Ironically, it was Michigan State that ended the winning streak that estab- lished the record during the 1990-91 season. On Feb. 16, 1991, the Spartans defeated Michigan, 6-2, at Joe Louis Arena. Stopping Michigan streaks, however, was evidently not foremost on the Spartans' minds. "Somebody told me (about endiig the 1990-91 streak) before (the game)," Michigan State coach Ron Mason said. "I never even mentioned that to our team." Overall, the Spartans have played well against the nation's top teams. Since 1981, Michigan State has a record of 11-6-1 when playing the NCAA champions from the year before. SPECTACULAR SPECIAL TEAMS: Michigan came into Saturday's game 13-of-41 on the power play (31.7 per- cent), while Michigan State came in with a remarkable penalty-killing per- centage of 94.1. For the season, the Spartans had killed off 32-of-34 power plays. When the two teams locked horns, it was the Spartans who won the battle early, killing off the Wolverines' first four man-advantages of the game. On the fifth, early in the third period, Matt Herr ended the Spartans' streak of 20 straight successful penalty kills with Michigan's only power-play goal of the game. "We had our chances (on the power play), and they weren't going in," Berenson said. "But they're a good penalty-killing team, just like we are." MARK FRIEDMAN/Daily The Michigan State hockey team caught up to Brendan Morrison and the rest of the Wolverines on Saturday, winning, 54. Dc-throniingI 9pum-ps Satn By James Goldstein Daily Sports Writer EAST LANSING - Michigan State's Tony Tuzzolino couldn't contain himself But after Michigan State came away with a thrilling 5-4 vic- tory over the No. 1 Michigan hockey team Saturday night - in front of the largest crowd at Munn Ice Arena in seven years - who can blame him? The Spartans had just beaten the Wolverines for the first time in the past five tries. Once again, Michigan State had prevented Michigan from winning its 16th con- secutive game, a mark that would have broken the school record. The Spartans also stopped the Wolverines' iX last 15-game streak in 1990-91. And, Michigan State had beaten its intra- state rival on its home ice. There was cause for jubilation. Music was blaring outside the Spartans' lockerroom. Even parents of the players were slapping each other f five. And there was Tuzzolino, in the middle of it all, being interviewed by a local television station. A few questions into the interview, players shouted, "Way to go, Tuzz," and then shouts of elation streamed out of the lock- erroom. Tuzzolino, who scored a goal and had an assist on the game- winning goal, responded with a yelp of his own. It was a release of emotion that was not to be bottled up after this game. There was no way he would hold in his emotions after an intense, down-to-the-wire victory. There was no reason to. "It was unbelievable" Tuzzolino said. "The fans were in it. We were in it. It was a great game to watch even when you are not playing in the game." It sure was. Even in the waning moments of the game with the score tied at four, you had the feeling that somebody was going to score. If the game went into overtime, somebody was bound to knock in the winning goal. But the game never made it to the extra session - thanks to sophomore left wing Bryan Adams. The puck seemed to appear on his stick as he was trailing the play into the Michigan zone. He knocked in the winning goal with 52 seconds on the clock, sending the 6,731-strong crowd into a frenzy. "I was just hanging back in case (Michigan) broke the play up so I could be the third forward back," Adams said. "It just happened that two guys followed York and Tuzz, and the puck was there for me. I thought to throw it at the net for a screen shot, and the puck just went in the corner (of the net)" Adams said he felt he redeemed himself after Michigan cap- italized on his high-sticking penalty early in the third period. But luck also went his way, too. Adams stated after the game that he was aiming for the left corner. But his shot was deflect- ed by Michigan defenseman Blake Sloan and was redirected into the right corner of the net. "I'll take it" Adams said. While it wasn't Sloan's fault for having his stick up in the air, the Wolverines could have done a better job of clearing the puck. All night long, Michigan had trouble getting rid of the puck in its zone. Three of the five Michigan State goals could have easily been prevented had Michigan poked the puck away, made crisper passes from its zone, or smothered the Spartans on the boards. On the other hand, Michigan State defensemen pounced on the puck or poked it away every opportunity they had. And then there were the lucky breaks and awkward bounces. In addition to Adams' deflected goal, Michigan State got a gift from the boards behind the Michigan goal, 4 1/2 minutes into the second period. Turco attempted to clear the puck from his right, slapping behind the goal. But like a boomerang, the puck hit the boards and caromed right in front of Turco. Tuzzolino was there for the easy scoring chance and after rebounding his own shot, he lifted the puck into a wide-open net. Easy score, lucky bounce. Just like the game-winning goal. "Sometimes you get the bounces," Tuzzolino said. "And that was one bounce we are loving right now." A bounce that gave Tuzzolino reason enough to release a shout of jubilation during the post-game interview. ICERS Continued from Page 113 The Wolverines had no such worries Friday night against the Fighting Irish. Michigan scored the way that Chicagoans vote - early and often. It only took the Wolverines 1:19 to grab the lead, and they never looked back. John Madden skated down the right wing and found Bubba Berenzweig alone in the middle. Berenzweig snapped a shot over goalie Matt Eisler's shoulder for his second goal of the year. Mike Legg, Sean Ritchlin, Jason Botterill and Matt Herr also scored in the first period to give Michigan a 5-0 lead going into the first intermission. But Michigan penalties early in the second period allowed Notre Dame back into the game. Benoit Cotnoir's slapshot from just inside the blue line found the net at 2:52 of the second period during a 5-on-3 Notre Dame power play. Another Notre Dame power play, 3:40 later, resulted in Joe Dusbabek following his own shot and scoring on the rebound. Aniket Dhadphale's goal off Madden's stick at 12:19 of the sec- ond period reduced Michigan's lead to two. But a pretty goal by Bill Muckalt, set up by Sloan, at 14:03 of the period secured Michigan's lead and the victo- ry. "The penalties really hurt," Berenson said. "You just knew they were going to come, and you knew we were going to get them. You knew (the Fighting Irish) were going to get a chance to get back in the game. "I don't know why, I just knew it was going to happen." By picking up only two points on the weekend, Michigan is now in third place in the CCHA with six points_1- trailing Michigan State by two points and Miami (Ohio) (5-0, 7-2) by four. 6:00 MMO aM A I T-SHIRT PRINTING LOWEST PRICESI HIGHEST QUALITY!
