Wednesday, May 7, 1997 -- The Michigan Daily - 19 SOFTBALL ConUnued fom Page 16 _On April 28, Holmes was named Big &'pitcher of the week for the second nsecutive week after picking up five wins and pitching 32 innings over the seven-day span. This weekend, the Wolverines head to Iowa looking for their third consecutive Big Ten title and an automatic bid to the NCAA tournament. In previous years, such an outstanding record would make the Wolverines over- whelming favorites to win the tourna- *nt. However, in previous years, Iowa (22-0, 46-5) was not as dominant as it was this season. "It is just unbelievable to think that anybody in this country could go unde- feated in the conference;" Hutchins said. Michigan's star pitcher Sara Griffin will not return this weekend, as expected, from a broken arm she suffered April 5. Michigan kicks off the tournament Friday against Michigan State (14-9, 44- 18). If Michigan wins, it will play the *ner of the Iowa-Purdue game Friday evening. Michigan will play the loser of that game if Michigan State wins. Purdue (14-10, 41-23) enters the field as the fourth seed in the tournament. Because of the double-elimination format of the tournament, the eventual winner will have to win three games and possibly play four. The championship game will be played Saturday afternoon. ichigan should know what to expect BASEBALL Continued from Page 16 the Big Ten in runs (54), hits (73) and RBI (66). This past weekend Ohio State got three complete games from Justin Fry (9-1, 3.26 ERA), Eric Thompson (8-2, 3.20) and Kurt Fullenkamp (7-0, 4.26). Those three will likely pitch the first three games this weekend. Michigan's probable starters are Brian Steinbach, Bryan Cranson, J.J. Putz and Bryan Berryman. Last Sunday, the Wolverines traveled to Michigan State for a doubleheader. The twinbill at Oldsmobile Park in Lansing featured come-from-behind victories by both teams. Michigan took game one, 7-5, and the Spartans were victorious in the nighteap, 6-5. In the second game, Michigan jumped out to a 4-0 lead, only to have Michigan State rally and win on Michigan errors. In game one, Putz relieved starter MarIon Wright in the first inning and proceeded to no-hit the Spartans over the- final 6 2/3 innings for a Michigan victo- ry. Putz (4-0) was named co-Big Ten pitcher of the week. Due to poor weather on Saturday, the teams only played one game in Ann Arbor, which Michigan won, 4-0. Friday at Oldsmobile, Bryan Besco's RBI single in the sixth broke a 1-1 tie and Michigan went on to win, 7-1. Yesterday's game between Michigan and Central Michigan ended after the Daily went to press. The Wolverines host Toledo today at 3 p.m. It wouldn't be a stretch to say that shortstop Pam Kosanke and the Michigan soft- ball team finished the Big Ten season with a bang. The Wolverines concluded 18-4. from the Spartans after sweeping them, where it finished the season. 1-0 and 4-1, on April 22. The Spartans, Michigan can assure itself a bid to the who finished the Big Ten with a 14-9 NCAA tournament and a chance to host record, were second in the Big Ten when an NCAA regional by winning the title the teams met. After Michigan State was in Iowa City. The Wolverinesjust have to swept by Iowa the following weekend, hope Iowa loses - something Iowa has Michigan jumped into second place, not done in the Big Ten since 1996. _ _.. ,. _ R eturning home Metro Detroit, the summer?
