Who: April Fronzoni
Year: Freshman
Sport: Field Hockey
Position: Forward
Why: In Michigan's home openers versus American and Ohio,
Fronzoni sparked the offensive attack with four goals to help the
field hockey team notch a pair of 6-1 victories. Yesterday against
Ohio, she scored three goals in 13 minutes to put away the
Bobcats. Fronzoni, along with sophomore forward Molly Powers,
leads the team with five goals in six games.
F-
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu fi'st gained
prominence by being the choice
method of combat in the Ultimate
Fighting Championship. Now it is
making a impact in Ann Arbor.
After three years, there are now
approximately 60 members of
Michigan's Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu club.
"It was started so we would have a
place to practice, but then when we
had our first practice, 35 people
showed up," club president Francis
Garcia said. "We had no idea how
popular it was."
.Jiu-Jitsu is a form of wrestling that
focuses on grappling and leverage to
defeat an opponent.
The club generally attracts former
high school wrestlers and those
trained in karate, but the club also
sees members who want to get in
shape or are looking .o learn self-
defense.
"It is a pretty casual environment."'
Garcia said. "There isn't a very rigid
schedule."
Members of the club are trained
within the group by those experi-
enced in the art. The members also
learn by competing against each
other.
"Very experienced members are
open to showing beginners new
moves," Josh Greenbaum said.
"Someone will get tapped and they
will say How did you do that? Show
me that."'
While many have competition
experience, no experience is neces-
sary to join.
"We have beginners take a two-day
course where they learn the basic
mr;ov's," Garcia said.
The group competes in tourna-
ments offered by Ann Arbor Karate
clubs, as well as tournaments
throughout the United States.

Ultimate club is holding its final clill-
ic this Sunday at Palmer Ield.
The men's club is comingO off a
solid seasons by taking ninth at
nationals at Boise.
"It is a great way to stay competi-
tive without sacrificing your whole
life," captain Mike H-alev 'said.
There are no cuts from the club and
no experience is necessary to join.
But for those with the ability and
drive there is an A team that practices
three days per week and will travel to
Georgia, Stanford. Tennessee and
Notre Dame.
The B team does not require the
same commitment and only plays on
the weekend.
"With new members (without expe-
rience) we will teach the necessary
throws," Halev said.
The women's ultimate club is also
recruitin next week. They are work-
ing with the men's club at the same
clinic this Sunday.
The women's club finished third
last year at regionals, just missing a
chance to go to nationals. Like the
men's club, the women's club requries
no experience to join.

OAKVIL.LE, Ontario (AP) --
Tiger Woods has a shot for every
occ as to i.
Pushed to the limits by an unlikely
challenger. Woods completed golfs
great summer in style yesterday with
a 6-iron from a
fairway bunker,
over tie water and
right at the flag, to
win the Canadian
Open by one stroke'
over Grant Waite.
Woods chipped
from the back of
the green to a foot
and tapped in for Woods
birdie to close out a 7-under-par 65
and his fifth victory in seven tourna-
ments this sumllmer. Three of them
were majors, one of them gave him
the career Grand Slam and all of
them were filled with unforgettable
shots.
And his last four victories included
some kind of scoring record.
Woods finished at 266, the lowest
72-hole score in the 22 years that the
Canadian Open has been played at
Glen Abbey Golf Club.
He was nearly flawless yesterday,
and had to be. Waite, a runner-up for
the second straight week in Canada,
matched him stroke-for-stroke and
put the pressure on with a 4-iron into
the par-5 18th green that left him a
20-foot eagle attempt that could have
forced a playoff or perhaps snatched
a victory away from Woods.
Woods went right at the flag, the
ball landed about 18 feet behind the
hole. Waite missed his eagle try and
had to settle for a 66 and one stroke
short of winning, just like he was in
Vancouver last week.
"My goal was not to get too caught
up in the hype," Waite said. "I gave
him a run for the monev."
Woods won for the third straight.
time, and for the ninth time this year,-
the most PGA Tour victories in one
year since Sam Snead won I I times
in 1950.
He earned 5594,000, giving him
more money in his last 38 tourna-
mrents - S14.9 million - than any-
one else in their career.
And Woods can now add the Tripl9
Crown to the Grand Slam. he com-
pleted by winning the British Open at
St. Andrews. He became the only
other player besides Lee Trevino in
1971 to win the U.S. Open, British
Open and Canadian Open in the same.
year.
Those are the three oldest national
championships in golf, all of them
conauered by a 24-year-old who
knows no limits.
And his knack for dramatic finish"
cs has no end.
Woods had the outright lead for'
only six holes in the tournament. He"
grabbed it for good on the par-5 16th'
with a 12-foot birdie putt. Woods
pointed to the cup - a gesture that
has replaced his famous fist pump
as the ball disappeared to give him a-
one-stroke lead with two holes to'
play.
With rain starting to fall, Woods
missed his first green on the 17th, but:,'
managed to blast out of the bunker to
a foot to save par, a tremendous shot
since he had so little green between
the sand and the flag.
And despite the pressure Waite
applied at the end, Woods had anq

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) -
South Koreans yesterday welcomed
news that their athletes will march
with their North Korean counter-
parts during the opening ceremony
at the Olympics.
But the agreement, mediated by
the International Olympic
Committee, was hardly a surprise to
South Koreans, who in recent
months have seen far more signifi-
cant improvements in the relation-
ship between the two rivals.
The Olympics agreement "is
something we can all celebrate,"
said Shin Dong-hoon, a stock
exchange official. "But he added
that it is a small thing, compared to
vhat both Koreas have already done
or agreed to do."
The Koreas, divided into the com-
munist North and the pro-Western
South in 1945, have never signed-a
peace treaty since they fought ..
three-year war in the early 1950s.
They share the world's most heavily
armed border with nearly 2 million.
troops deployed on both sides.
The relations between North and
South have improved dramatically
since their leaders met for the first
time in June and agreed to work
together for reconciliation and unifik
cation.
The two also decided to reconnect
a cross-border railway and agreccjQ
discuss opening a military hotljne,
and a regular channel of dialogue
between their defense leaders.
Still, the latest news elated man*

"It's better to march together. We
are one people," said street-cleaner
