SportsMonday - The Michigan.Daily - October 1, 2001 - 7B Men's soccer speeds to weekend sweep Skilled freshmen key Wolverines' offense By Chris Burke Daily Sports Writer If in its second year as a varsity sport, the learning curve is supposed to still be in place for the Michigan men's soccer team, it hasn't been showing on the field. Two wins this past weekend over Dayton and Western Michigan upped the Wolverines' record to 7-1 -- eclipsing last year's win total with a month to go in the season. Michigan posted win number seven at Varsity Field yesterday against a hungry, aggressive Western Michigan team. The Wolverines were able to play an up-tempo style against the Broncos, recording a 5-2 win. The Wolverines were led by for- ward Jody Keeling who scored two goals early in the second half with the team nursing a 1-0 lead. His second goal in the 59th minute gave Michi- gan a 3-0 lead, and essentially clinched a victory. "I think that I was just in the right place at the right time basically and got a little bit lucky," Keeling said. "I'm excited about our team perfor- mance as a whole." Knox Cameron got the Wolver- ines' scoring started in the seventh minute when was met with a pass from Dave George that sent him in on a breakaway. He played the ball past the Western goalie and deposited it into the open net. "We really tried to bury them as quick as possible, and just take all the life out of them," Cameron said. "I was kind of upset the last game where I had a lot of chances and I was really eager to get back out here, and I was determined to finish if I got the chance." Kevin Taylor and Karl Lopata also added goals for the Wolverines. The weekend sweep began on Fri- day night on the narrow field at. Ann Arbor Pioneer High School. Taking advantage of their speed, the Wolver- ines time and time again broke play- ers open down the middle of the field and recorded multiple scoring chances en route to a 2-1 win. "We wanted both of our forwards to always be on the same side of the ball -- one going towards the corner flag, the other showing back to the ball," Michigan coach Steve Burns said. "We were looking for our wide play- ers to get the ball and go right at the center of their defense - essentially, we exploited them enough to win." There was no strategy necessary to prepare for Michigan's first goal. Using the narrower field to its favor, J.J. Kern took a throw-in from the left sideline and landed a pass midway across the goalie box where Kevin Taylor headed it past Dayton's goal- keeper in the 37th minute. In the 72nd minute the Wolverines notched a huge insurance goal when Robert Turpin beat two defenders deep in Dayton territory and sent a grossing pass to his brother Mychal Turpin, who sat all alone in front of the goal and gave Michigan a 2-0 lead. Dayton scored in the 85th minute, but was not able to land the equalizer. By Jim Weber Daily Sports Writer The jump from high school to college soccer is supposed to take time for freshmen. The college game is much more physical than anything they expe- rience on their school and club teams during high school, and the move usual- ly results in a slow start. But Theresa Dwyer, Kate Morgan and Liz Dosa have already made a big splash for the Michigan women's soccer team nine games into the season as evi- denced by Michigan's 2-0 victory over Northwestern last Friday. Both of Michigan's goals came from a pair of freshman roommates. Dwyer scored her first career goal for Michigan while Morgan scored her third. The Morgan's goal put her second on the team in goals behind Amy Sullivant. "She's really good and composed," Michigan coach Debbie Rademacher said about Morgan. Rademacher noted that Morgan does especially well in the goalie box as evidenced by her knack for scoring. Dwyer's first goal of the season was- n't the beginning of her contributions to the team. She has appeared in all but two of the Wolverines' games this sea- son and has earned the praise of coaches and players. "She lays off some good balls for her teammates," assistant coach Scott For- rester said. "She's a playmaker," Mor- gan added. "She creates and she has really good field vision." She added that Dwyer is also good at taking a defender one-on-one. Dosa hasn't scored a goal yet but has already integrated herself into the start- ing lineup. What makes the transition even more difficult for Dosa is that she was switched from forward to midfield- er by the coaching staff Rademacher describes Dosa as a "lightning fast" player who is especially dangerous near the sideline. TOM FELDKAMP/Daily Freshman midfielder Theresa Dwyer has been a major contributor for Michigan. Now teammates, Morgan and Dosa knew each other growing up in Califor- nia - they lived only 45 minutes away from each other. The two played on rival club teams throughout high school and became rivals. They played against one another every weekend and faced each other during several club champi- onship games. "I'm glad she's on my team now," a relieved Morgan said. Jillian Papa, Laura Tanchon and Laney Rosin have also seen playing time this year as freshmen. In her first appearance of the year, Rosin scored a goal against Dayton three weeks ago. The new class will play an even big- ger role for Michigan for the rest of the season. Rademacher and Forrester both said that those who haven't seen much action up to this point will get their chances as the year continues. Wolvennes finish an un-Bear-able seventh By Matt Kramer For the Daily The Baylor men's golf team certainly knows how to ruin a party. On a day when two Michigan golfers celebrat- ed their 20th birthdays, it was the Bears who did all the partying this weekend after winning the 19-team Wolverine Invitational at the Michigan Golf Course. The Bears scorched the 6,700-yard, par 71 layout with a two day total of six-over par 574, five shots ahead of runner up Minnesota and 19 shots ahead of Michigan, which finished sev- enth. After a lackluster first round of 301 on Friday that placed the Wolverines 10th - the format counts the best four scores from the team's five members - the Michigan golfers fought back strong with a 292 yesterday but were never real- ly in contention. The golfers did not play Saturday because of the football game. "It's disappointing," Michigan coach Jim Car- ras said. "I don't think we were ready. It's not an excuse, but we didn't have great practice time because of the bad weath'er last week and it affected us, I think. "And Baylor is a good team. They are the defending Big 12 champions and I anticipated them being on top." Michigan's top individual performer, senior Andrew Chapman, shot rounds of 73 and 74 to finish with a 36-hole total of 177. He finished seven shots back of co-medalists Ryan Baca of Baylor and Ball State's Mike Gant. "We definitely could have played better than we played this week, especiafly since this is our home course," Chapman said. "But we can take positives out of this. "We played better as a team in the final round and if we can just gain some momentum then we should be fine for our next tournament in two weeks." Chapman was followed by fellow senior Kyle Kilcherman, who struggled in the first round Fri- day with an 80 but came back to fire a 69 yester- day, including four birdies and a double bogey. Freshman Rob Tighe (76-74), sophomore David Nichols (75-75), and senior Andy Matthews (77-76) rounded out Michigan's squad. For Nichols and individual scorer Scott Carl- ton, yesterday's final round was played during each golfer's 20th birthday. "It wasn't a great birthday," Nichols said, "but it could have been a lot worse." DANNY MOLOSHOK/Daily Michigan's Jody Keeling (No. 8) celebrates his second goal with Knox Cameron (No. 10) in the second half to make the score 3-0.
