point, it was just crumbling. Every facet
of m~i game was off tonight."
.They had a few good breaks and we
didn't really respond well to it," Notre
Dame junior David Inman said.
Shouneyia's goal at 1:09 in the first
got things going for Michigan, but
Cammalleri's first of his three scores at
3:02 really set things in motion for the
Maize and Blue. As the Wolverines have
proven countless times this season,
falling behind one goal early is not
always telling of the game's outcome.
But 2-0, or subsequently 7-0 by the end
of' the second period, is often a death
knell.
Notre Dame suffered through punch
after punch from Michigan's first line of
Geoff Koch, Cammalleri and Andy
Hilbert. The trio combined for four
goals, eight assists and a plethora of
additional chances, adding up to a
plus/minus of +11 for the line. But
Cammalleri's third tally for the hat trick
lacked some of the usual pomp -as the
second hat trick in 7:52 is known to do.
Kosick had already performed the
feat, beating Kolquist's backup,
Jetemiah Kimento, to net the second
three-goal game of his career.
Even though Cammalleri's hat trick
was the second of the night, it still meant
a lot to him.

"It's nice to get a hat trick," he said. "I
haven't had one yet at Michigan. My
goals were definitely results of Geoff
Koch's work tonight."
Somewhat lost in the offensive domi-
nation was a shutout for Michigan goalie
Josh Blackburn, his fourth of the season.
"It's good for the goalie," Berenson
said. "I would have been disappointed if
we'd given up a cheap goal or a lazy goal.
You're playing for you goalie in the last
period, especially in the last 10 minutes."

Walk-on Weingart makes her
biggest splash academically

By Steve Jackson
I)ly Sports Writer
While big name athletes grab all
the headlines, another picture of the
student-athlete toils in quiet obscuri-
ty.
Sophomore Gwen Weingart doesn't

see herself in the "dumb-
jock" mold.
"I guess I never really
think about it that way,"
Weingart said. "A lot of
athletes here don't fit
that mold. As a walk-on,
my only perks come
from being a part of this
team... I am just here to

The Cleveland-area native defines
a scholar-athlete as a person with "no

"You have to keep everything in
perspective," Weingart said. "There is
no professional swim-

.fn "It's important for me
to spend time with friends outside the
program," she said. "Sometimes I just
need to break from swimming."
So far, this has been a disappoint-
ing season in the pool for Weingart
personally. But, she credits her moth-
er Judy with giving her the strength to
cope with both her frustrations and
her hectic schedule.

"She is my definition of success,"
Gwen said.
Five years from now, Weingart
hopes to work as a financial consul-
tant.
"I have always enjoyed problem
solving, and I am really good at
math," Weingart said. "Business com-
bines the two. Besides, my competi-
tiveness and organizational skills will
help me there."
"Gwen is really tough and
focused," Michigan coach Jim
Richardson said. "Swimming is not a
game - it's a sport. So we need to
recruit hard-working, driven individu-
als like Gwen"
Richardson's recruiting philosophy
has been instrumental in the team's
academic success - its combined
GPA has been between 3.1 and 3.2 for
the last 12 years.
Weingart and the rest of the 14th-
ranked Wolverines have two dual

Will governer's call
come for Alabama?
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (U-WIRE) -
Last Thursday, CBS SportsLine.com
printed a stor that discussed the possi-
bility the NCAA would level the "death
penalty" on the Crimson Tide footb*
program as punishment for rules viola-
tions.
Such punishment would force
Alabama to cancel an entire football
season. But Gene Marsh, Alabams
Faculty Athletic Representative, said

it is too early to discuss any form of
puimshment.
The story, by SportsLine.com's
Dennis Dodd, quoted David Swan,
a former chairman of the NCAA
Committee on Infractions. Swank
was chairman in 1987 when the com-
mittee suspended Southern
Methodist University's football pro-
gram for the season, destroying a
once-.strong football power.
Swank told Dodd the death pena
ty "will occur again" and added that
Alabama's current status makes the
Tide a prime target.

who broke curfew by going to a

basketball team.
He held the same position at
Washington State for the past two sea-
sons and is a 1992 graduate of the uni-
versity.
