tomorrow and the Wolverines will be
one of the participants. Junior Mark
Clinton is the probable starter for the
Big Ten champ in its opening clash with
Central Michigan at 1 p.m. The second
contest will feature Nebraska battling
p lodev

Brigham Young at 4.
The regional format consists of a
double elimination method. Simply put,
a team must lose two games before it is
eliminated from competition.
THE GAME schedule is as follows:
after the two games on Thursday, two
more will be played on Friday. Thur-
sday's losers will square off against
each other at 1 p.m. with the loser being
eliminated from the regional. Thur-
sday's winners will play at 4 p.m.
Saturday at 1, the winner of Friday's
first game will play the loser of
Friday's second game. And later that
afternoon the winner of the first game

will play the undefeated team.
If the undefeated club wins, that team
will take the Mideast regional and ad-
vance to further competition. If the un-
defeated team loses, the regional final
will beheld Sunday at 1 p.m.
THERE IS, however, one stipulation
in this schedule. If Brigham Young
should be one of the two finalists, it
would not be able to play on Sunday
because it conflicts with the school's
Mormon beliefs. Therefore, the game
would have to be held Monday at 1 p.m.
Tickets for all games will be $3.00 and
can be purchased only at the Fisher
Stadium gate at game time.
