ne tvcnigan uay - rrnaay, reruary li, zuuu - i *osen has success with 2000 recruits The Michigan volleyball team, which is coming off it second NCAA berth ever, landed a top recruiting class for this season. Coach Mark Rosen's first recruit- ing class includes outside hitter Chantal Reedus, middle blocker Erin -Ooore and setter Lisa Gamalski. All three are from out of state. Reedus was a two-time All- American and three-time all-state selection. Moore was a top player in the state of Ohio in both volleyball and basketball, earning all-state hon- ors in both. Gamalski is praised as being an outstanding athlete who played as an outside hitter: throughout high school. Griffey traded to Cincinnati CINCINNATI (AP) --- Junior has come home. Following three months of often dead- locked trade talks, the Cincinnati Reds reunited Ken Griffey Jr. with his father and his hometown Thursday by sending four players to the Seattle Mariners. The final piece of the deal came when Griffey agreed to a nine-year contract worth S116.5 million, the richest pack- age in baseball history. The pact covers from 2000-09, and the Reds even have an option for a,.10th season. While Griffey boarded a plane to fly to Cincinnati for a news conference, euphoric fans honked horns on the streets, put up "Welcome Home" signs in their yards and reveled in the team's most celebrated trade since Pete Rose returned as player-manager in 1984. "His name comes up like Pete Rose's name as far as Cincinnati," said coach Ron Oester, a native who played for the Reds. "That's the magnitude he's at for Cincinnati fans." Cincinnati is the only place the 10- time All-Star center fielder wanted to play. And when spring training begins later this month, his trademark backward hat will have a "C" on it. Pitcher Brett Tomko and outfielder Mike Cameron were sent to Seattle for GOPHERS Continued from Page 10 Grant realizes that, above all else, avoiding a major decision loss is vital. "It's going to be a tough match," Grant said. "I'm going out there to win, but if what's supposed to happen happens, I just have to hold on for the team and not give up any extra points." The night's featured match will be the 184-pound bout, between No. 6 Andy Hrovat and No. 3 Brandon Eggum. "If I win I'll probably be the No. I seed going into Big Tens," Hrovat said. "That's been on my mind a lot lately. This match is huge." Eggum bested Hrovat in a dual meet in Minneapolis last season in a 8-3 decision. Hrovat has steadily climbed in the rankings in his sopho- more year while going undefeated in dual meets. "I want to change the way I look at him when I wrestle him," Hrovat said. "Last year he was No. I when I wres- tled him and I was kind of scared. I went into the match thinking he was something awesome. Hie's above aver- age, but he's just another wrestler." The best news for Michigan is that senior Joe Warren will finally return to the mat Friday, after being. out since December with a knee injury. Besides being the team's leader, Warren returns as the highest-ranked wrestler for Michigan at No. 4 in'be 133-pound weight class. "I've been working hard and my conditioning and work ethic are there," Warren said. "I know its the end of my senior year and I'm ready to go." On Saturday, Michigan faces Indiana, a team the Wolverines beat 18-16 at the Virginia Duals in early January. The first meeting occured before Michigan's top wrestler, Otto Olson, went down for the season with a knee injury. Building momentum leading into the post-season is the team's main objective. Even if Michigan can't steal a victory from Minnesota, defeating Indiana is crucial because a two-loss weekend would be mentally devestating. AP PHO Cincinnati's newest Ken Griffey hopes to recapture the glory days that the Reds enjoyed, while his father roamed the outfield for the Big Red Machine. Kickoff Classic selects matchup EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) - Penn State will face Southern Cal. on Aug. 27 in the Sickoff Classic at Giants Stadium, e first rematch in the 18-year his- tory of the event. The announcement comes after Michigan, the top choice of Kickoff Classic officials, decided against playing in the game. It was believed that Michigan did not want to play Virginia Tech, which lost in the national title game. Penn State will be appearing in the Kickoff Classic for the fourth me It is the third Kickoff Classic 'or Southern Cal., which topped Syracuse, 34-16, in 1990. Barkley reinstated by NCAA AMA ICA, NY (AP) -- St, John's star point guard Erick Barkley today was reinstated by the NCAA and will ' in uniform for Saturday's Big East Conference game against Villanova. On Tuesday, the NCAA suspended Barkley for three games, citing an infraction concerning the governing body's general regulations. St. John's filed an appeal and today the NCAA Division I subcom- mittee on student-athlete reinstate- ment reduced the suspension to the two games Barkley already had issed. Griffey, along with a pair of minor lea- guers: infielder Antonio Perez and right- hander Jake Meyer. The Mariners had little hope of keep- ing Griffey after this season. He was eli- gible for free agency, and said he wanted to be closer to his home in Florida. He eventually limited his list of eligi- ble teams to one - Cincinnati, where he grew playing in the clubhouse during the days when his father, Ken Sr., was part of the Big Red Machine. Ken Sr. is now the Reds' bench coach and may eventually succeed Jack McKeon as manager. Assured that Griffey would accept less to play in his hometown, the Reds went. ahead and completed the five-player trade on Wednesday night, then asked the commissioner's office for a 72-hour win- dow to negotiate a long-term deal.
