?B - The Michigan Daily - SportsMonday - November 6, 2000 CLUBSPRTSWEEKLY Eciwdefrswl S Nlips , ,u-Jitsu club performs well at U.S. Nationals AMERICAN CONFERENCE y Brad Hoffman or the Daly Entering U.S. Nationals last week- nd in Columbus, things were looking leak for the Michigan's Brazilian Jiu- itsu club. With five members of the ompetitive team unable to perform ue to injury, it were reduced to send- ig its three youngest fighters to com- etc in one of the most prestigious Jiu- tsu tournaments. With this in mind, the team had to be itisfied with the outcome of its atches. All three fighters received ledals in their respective divisions, cite an accomplishment, since there ere competitors representing places I across America, Brazil and Japan. "The United States does not have the -digree in Jiu-Jitsu that other coun- ies do," club president Francis Garcia id. "They bring a big contingent of ghters, all of whom are very skilled." A match may end in numerous ways. fighter can submit, win on points or ic six-minute time limit can expire. I. Michigan's victories came on sub- issions or by the mercy rule, which :curs when a fighter has a 12-point ad. Sophomore Cooper Holoweski, who )mpeted in the lightweight division, wised through his matches, only to se in the finals to a fighter from awaii by a submission armbar tech- que (hyperextending an opponent's mn). "It was his hard work, dedication, and intense summer training that allowed him to better himself as a fighter," Garcia said. "This has really become evident throughout the sea- son. Freshman Matt Jubera also compet- ed in the lightweight division, receiv- ing the bronze medal. Coincidentally, Jubera was also defeated by the same Hawaiian fighter, losing on points. In the light-heavyweight division, sophomore Rob Linn, who earned a spot on the competitive team by win- ning the first annual Michigan In- House Tournament, also received a sil- ver medal. "This was definitely a step up for us. We can use nationals as a gauge for our next tournament," Garcia said. Their progress will be determined quickly, as the club's next tournament is the U.S. Open this weekend in Santa Cruz, Calif Coach Marcio Corleta, Garcia, ses- sion leader Rodrigo Nunes, along with competitors David O'Hara and Evan Locev were all unable to compete in nationals. Their return to action will be pivotal for the team. Corleta, who does not attend Michigan but still coaches and com- petes with the team, is the reigning Pan-American and World champion. He severely sprained his ankle while fighting in Brazil a week prior to nationals and his return is question- able.

The women's basketball team used its first exhibition as a chance to exper- iment with its players as the Wolverines routed a group of former Division I ath- letes, 98-76. "I was glad I was able to get every- body playing time, especially the fresh- men," Michigan coach Sue Guevara said. Five Wolverines scored in double digits, including three starters. Shooting guard Alayne Ingram's game high of 17 was helped by her two-of- three shooting from beyond the arc. Tying Ingram in points was freshman Jennifer Smith who also added seven rebounds. Freshman Michaela Leary spelled Anne Thorius. Leary got her points via the freethrow, hitting six-of-seven from the line. She also added five assists. Guevara made Leary Thorius' back- up. Though Thorius rarely misses a start, Leary will see plenty of playing time as Guevara said she did not want to burden her starter with 40 minutes a game. Michaela "gets to watch and see the decisions that Anne makes and Alayne makes," Guevara said. "She's a student of the game too. She's a pretty quick learner."

SPORTS0BRFS Woods stumbles, Mickelson wins Tour Championship ATLANTA (AP) - Phil Mickelson found the perfect end to his season - winning the Tour Championship with a record score and stopping another amazing streak by Tiger Woods. With no chance to win any PGA Tour awards, Mickelson gave himself quite a consolation prize yesterday. 1-e closed with a 4-under 66 and took advantage of sloppy play by Woods for a two- stroke victory at East Lake Golf Club.

And it was the second time this year Mickelson weas the man responsi- ble for stopping the streak. In February, he came on strong down the stretch to win the Buick Invitational in San Diego arid stop Woods' tour win- ning streak at six. "It's a wonderful way to end the year," said Mickelson, who finished at 13-under 267 to break by one stroke the Tour Championship record set by Tom Watson in 1987. By Nathan Linsley Dally Spois Witer All day at the Eastern Michigan Open, Michigan wrestling coaches could be seen pacing up and down the sidelines, scouring at their troops. Verbal coaching was not allowed because it was an open rmeet, but any spectator could tell that a glare from one of the coaches contained all the information the team needed. Get aggressive. The Wolverines were intense enough to win eight-of-10 weight classes at the meet, which hosted many of the smaller state schools as well as Big Ten rivals Michigan State and Purdue. While the meet was non-scoring for the team, the high intensity level preached by coach Joe McFarland was apparent for the Wolverines, who are hoping a dominating style will help them improve on their fifth-place finish in the Big Ten Championships. McFarland has been teaching his style of aggressive wrestling thus far this season, and was pleased with the results. "We're wrestling a hard, in-your-face, tough style of wrestling, and I like that," McFarland said. "I wanted to see how aggressive we are, and it's encouraging."

"That's been an emphasis for us to get the ball up and down the court," Ingram said. "We always try to move ( down the floor and get layups." Despite the positives the Wolverines take away from the game, they still found a few weaknesses in their first outing. Chief among them were turnovers. They lost the ball 21 times Guevara set the team's goal to be 1 5. Guevara was also bothered by allowing The Family 16 offensive rebounds. "There's room for improvement, b4 I like what I saw," Guevara said.

Otto Olson. in his first com- petition since an injury ended his 199)- 2000 season, also won the 174-poun'd weight class.14 "I really like how some of my young guvs are wrestling, and the way they'rr competing.

Though many other teams had, wrestlers in the meet, the crowd was' filled with maize-and-blue-clad former" wrestlers. who were just as intense and. excited as the team itself. Numerous fans complimented McFarland and the rest of the coaches on the team's dominance, all while quietl whispering about the Feb. 2 showdown. with Iowa in Ann Arbor. While that may be a long way off. McFarland remains pleased with his first eyes at his team in competition. "We want to go out and (physically) dominate our opponent, regardless of who it is" McFarland said.

For some answers see: www.universityseCretS.COm By Nick Kacher Dil' sports Vnter It is hard enough to get a win in Big Ten soccer while playing with a full team, but when a team has to play a man short for the majority of the game -- winning becomes almost. impossible. This is exactly what the Michigan men's soccer team (1-5 Big Ten, 6-9 overall) faced Saturday afternoon when it squared off with No. 20 Ohio State. In their last regular season game of the inau- gural season, the Wolverines fell 3-0. Just 12 minutes into the game, Michigan's Steve Walton received a questionable red card. This forced him to sit out the rest of'the game and forced the Wolverines to play a man short for the remainin 77 minutes. Ohio State was quick to capitalize on the advantage and found the back of the net twice in a three minute span. "We feel we got an unfortunate cl and its tough to play a man short for almost 80 minutes," senior co-captain Jack Stead said. Michigan usually plays with more of a defensive, counter-attacking strategy. But the team decided to show Ohio State a more high-pressure, pressing style to begin the game. After the early red card, the Wolverines had to throw that idea out t door. Michigan held tough after the tw quick goals, and went into halftime trail- ing 2-0. "I told the guys at halftime we had a huge challenge in front of us, trailing 2- 0" coach Steve Burns said. "To get back into we had to play a very physical game. w
