Not only id they win a well-executed game, but sophomore Eric Heintschel may have pitched his way into the fourth spot in Michigan's starting rota- tion. Pitching in relief of winner Russell Brock, Heintschel went two innings, giving up one hit while walking two and striking out one. The transfer from Air Force was the whird of four Michigan pitchers used in the game. Freehan started Jason Pfaff to give his ace some midweek work and let Todd Marion close. "Their pitching was excellent," Titan coach Bob Miller said. "They all threw very well." Michigan also came through with some clutch hitting; Dan Ruff went 2 for 4 on the day with a single 'and a double, while collecting three RBIs. "He's a tremendous fastball hit- ter," Miller said. "Both of his hits came with two outs." With a single in the fifth, Wolverine Scott Timmerman stretched his hitting streak to seven games. The second baseman has now hit in 18 of his last 19 games and in all but two games the entire season. The Wolverines held a 2-1 lead late into the ballgame until they came up with two runs in the top of the seventh. All-American third baseman Tim Flannelly and desig- nated hitter Nate Holdren produced timely hits to put Michigan safely ahead, 4-1. With the hit, Flannelly picked up Michigan career RBI No. 116 to put him only 10 away from eighth-place Chris Sabo. by Ken Davidoff Daily Sports Writer Back in the days when Daniel Boone and his coonskin-capped cronies were cruising through the Midwest, someone decided to estab- lish a small town by the name of Mt. Pleasant. This pioneer certainly had remarkable foresight, for the Michigan softball team paid a rather pleasant visit there yesterday. The Wolverines (2-2 in the Big Ten, 15-9 overall) swept a double- header against the Chippewas of Central Michigan, 3-1, and 6-3. "We are very happy to win this pair of games with Central Michigan," Michigan coach Carol Hutchins said. "If you look at the history book against the Chippewas, we haven't done well." Indeed, with yesterday's victo- ries the Wolverines now trail the all-time series, 20-16. Shortstop Bonnie Tholl started things quickly when she rapped the game's first pitch down the left field line for a double. After advancing to third on a ground out by Julie Cooper, she scored on a sacrifice fly by Patti Benedict. Michigan scored twice more in the third inning, once on Karla Kunnen's successful suicide squeeze. In the ninthi Wolverines added an on a Ruff double. inning, insurance the run That was all winning pitcher Andrea Nelson would need, as she held the Chippewas to one seventh- inning run, permitting only four hits. "Andrea Nelson did a very good job for us," Hutchins said. "She has been pitching strongly in both starts and in relief." The second match imitated its predecessor, with the Wolverines holding onto their early lead. CMU did provide a scare with a three-run third inning to come within one, but first-year pitcher Julie Clarkson closed the door. Juniors Shelley Bawol and Heather Lyke each con- tributed two hits. The team's batting had been a concern after a weak offensive showing against Indiana last week- end. But Hutchins was confident things would turn around, and they did somewhat, as Michigan pounded out a total of 15 hits in the twin- bill. "We hit the ball pretty well and were able to string hits together in both games," Hutchins said. Add quality pitching and one-er- ror fielding to this formula, and it makes for quite a pleasant day. "Both teams played real well," Miller said. "It was the kind of ballgame that the fans love; it was only two hours long and it was warm out." The Wolverines hope for the same weather and same outcome when the two squads meet again to- day at Fisher Stadium. Michigan ace Jason Pfaff pitched three scoreless innings yesterday yielding two hits while striking out two as Michigan beat Detroit, 5-1. Sectionaltourney .8 i a c accidet =osi:.i.e 1.. The Daily Staff wishe to= awaits lacrosse team WRITE FOR ARTS!!! CALL 763-0379!11 After winning its last three games, the Michigan men's lacrosse team will play in Champaign for its sectional tournament this weekend. The Wolverines will face the club teams from Indiana, Purdue and Illinois in a tournament that will help decide the seeding for the, sea- son-end conference championship. The competition will provide the Wolverines with an opportunity to show the rest of the Big Ten club teams their true colors. It was but a fortnight ago when they pumelled Indiana in an exhibition game, 13-3. "We are out to prove to the rest of the Big Ten," said captain Marc Silbergeld, a member of last year's championship team, "that we are the defending champions and it's going to take a lot to take it away from us." - Mitch Rubenstein J1 I: I 111 =1 0 L, i NWNEa :I I FI Me MvesOf14MI._ icign n.
