10 - The Michigan Daily - Tuesday, March 10, 1998 Ward heads south again WBARD Continued from Page 9 career, Ward's 6-foot-9 frame was put to the test. Macco Baston's broken foot forced Ward to assert himself as a big man and the results have been evident. IHe has attacked the glass with abandon since ,sliding into Baston's spot in the starting lineup and is challenging shots with increased regu- larity. Sacrificing for the team's success has brought Ward's game into the spotlight he shies away from, but he understands why his versa- tility is so important. "I've never played in an NCAA tournament game," said Ward, who watched Michigan's first-round exits his freshman and sophomore seasons from the bench thanks to knee compli- cations. "If you want to make this a special year, everybody has to be thinking the same way." And in this case, that means getting excited about Atlanta and a Friday matchup with Davidson. For the Wolverines, ironically enough, that will mean following Jerod Ward's lead. Win free pizza!! Don't forget to turn in the NCAA NA 6 Tournament bracket from yester- day's Daily on page 8B. Just fill ite out, cut it out, and drop it off by 11 a.m., Thursday, at the Daily's ~ sports desk at 420 Maynard St. The most accurate entry will receive 10 free pizzas courtesy of Pizza House. 'M' tennis drops trio' By Drew Beaver Daily Sports Writer Was it the heat of southern California? Could it have been the difficulty adjusting to outdoor courts? Perhaps it was the quality of the opposition. Whatever it was, it certainly was not a great weekend for the Michigan women's tennis team. The 24th-ranked Wolverines (1-0 Big Ten, 4-4 overall) dropped all three of their matches last week, losing to No. 21 San Diego State on Thursday and No. 10 Pepperdine on Friday before being upset by No. 30 San Diego on Saturday. "I think certainly, this was a wake-up call," Michigan coach Bitsy Ritt said. "Theo key is to come back tomorrow and work really hard." The Wolverines began their swing across the west coast with a match against San Diego State. The Aztecs took a 4-2 lead after singles play, despite three-set victories by Erryn Weggenman and Alison Sinclair, at No. 4 and No. 6 singles, respectively. The Wolverines needed to sweep the doubles matches in order to pull out a team victory. They came up short, however, getting only one win from the No. 2 doubles team of Weggenman and senior captain Sora Moon. Pepperdine is the highest-ranked team Michigan has faced this season. Once again the Wolverines fell behind 4-2, with Pepperdine sweeping the lower four flights. The Waves took all three doubles matches for a 7-2 win. The Wolverines' final chance for a victory came against San Diego, a team they beat last year. Danielle Lund was the only Wolverine to earn a singles victory against San Diego, with a three-set win at No. 2 singles. The Toreros won the other five singles match- es and the No. 2 and No. 3 doubles matches en route to a 7-2 victory. Jerod Ward's game has blos- somed this year - his first as a completely healthy Wolverine.
