Michigan secondary looks 
to re-establish continuity

By JAKE LOURIM

Managing Sports Editor

Other than the offensive line, 

perhaps no unit has had more 
continuity for the Michigan 
football team this year than the 
secondary.

After rotating bodies in and 

out constantly in recent years, 
the Wolverines have stuck to 
four players for most of the year.

But on the offensive line, the 

goal is to establish cohesiveness 
and operate as a unit. In the 
secondary, 
each 
player 
is 

different, 
and 
each 
brings 

something different to the table.

There is Jarrod Wilson, a 

senior safety who will make his 
27th career start — second on 
the defense to fifth-year senior 
linebacker 
Desmond 
Morgan 

— Saturday against Rutgers. 
Wilson has earned high praise 
for being the leader of the unit.

As a veteran, he has the task 

of coordinating assignments in 
the back end. Against Michigan 
State on Oct. 17, Wilson warned 
junior defensive backs Channing 
Stribling and Dymonte Thomas 
that the Spartans would look for 
Macgarrett Kings down the left 
sideline on 4th-and-18 late in the 
game. Sure enough, they did, and 
Stribling and Thomas broke it up 
to force the turnover.

Secondary 
coach 
Greg 

Jackson said last week that 
was normal for Wilson, and 
Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh 
also expressed appreciation for 
Wilson’s efforts.

“People listen to Jarrod when 

he talks,” Harbaugh said last 
week. “He’s a do-stuff-right 
guy all the time and really 
enjoyable to coach, and talented. 
… It’s something that the public 
doesn’t 
see, 
his 
leadership 

qualities, because he does it in 
such a steady, non-show type of 
way, but I can assure you, he’s 
one of the top leaders on the 
team.”

Then 
there 
is 
junior 

Jourdan Lewis, the lock-down 
cornerback of the group. Lewis 
defends taller receivers well 

considering his 5-foot-10 height. 
On the season, he has 15 pass 
breakups and two interceptions, 
one of which he returned for a 
touchdown.

“The kid’s a competitor,” said 

secondary coach Mike Zordich. 
“I enjoy coaching him, enjoy 
watching him play. We match 
him up against the best receiver 
every week, and he embraces it. 
He really does. 
He’s just fun 
to watch and 
fun to coach.”

Lewis’ 

toughest test 
of 
the 
year 

came against 
Michigan 
State’s Aaron 
Burbridge, 
but he could 
have another 
battle 
this 
weekend 
against 

Rutgers’ Leonte Carroo, who 
is questionable for Saturday’s 
matchup. In just five games this 
season, Carroo has caught 24 
passes for 527 yards and nine 
touchdowns.

The spot opposite Lewis has 

been the only one with much 
fluctuation. 
Stribling 
started 

the year at cornerback, but 

redshirt junior Jeremy Clark, 
who leads the team with three 
interceptions, has started three 
of the past four games. Zordich 
said Wednesday that the two are 
competing for time along with 
other players.

Behind them in the defensive 

backfield, 
redshirt 
freshman 

safety Jabrill Peppers garners the 
most attention in the secondary. 

While most of it 
has been for his 
offensive 
and 

special 
teams 

play lately, he 
spends 
most 

of 
his 
time 

on 
defense, 

starting 
all 

eight 
games 

there so far.

Peppers 

ranks fifth on 

the team with 26 tackles and 
sixth with 4.5 tackles for loss. He 
often makes plays coming off the 
edge in blitz packages.

Unless something changes, 

those four or five — with 
contributions from players such 
as Thomas and junior safety 
Delano Hill — will see the bulk 
of the time in the secondary 
again Saturday. They will try to 

regroup after giving up 26 points 
to the Big Ten’s worst scoring 
offense.

“Last 
week, 
not 
taking 

anything away from Minnesota, 
we just laid an egg defensively,” 
Zordich said. “Especially in the 
secondary, we just played poorly.”

Having two coaches in the 

secondary helps to shore up 
those issues before they escalate. 
Zordich and Jackson’s primary 
emphasis with the defensive 
backs is eye control.

Most of opponents’ big plays 

have come when their receivers 
sneak behind the secondary. 
When the Wolverines watch film, 
they watch the wings on players’ 
helmets, making sure they’re 
focused forward toward the 
receiver and not toward the ball.

Consistency with personnel 

has enabled the Wolverines to 
work tirelessly on that. While 
their unit has been dominant 
for most of the season, each 
individual 
brings 
something 

different to the table.

“As a group, they’re great. 

But just as all of you here are 
different, 
everybody 
in 
our 

room 
is 
different,” 
Zordich 

said. “Everybody has their own 
personalities, which is beautiful.”

ALLISON FARRAND/Daily

Senior safety Jarrod Wilson will look to lead Michigan’s secondary back to its dominant ways this weekend.

“As a group, 

they’re great. ... 
Everybody in our 
room is different.”

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL
Experience drives 
Ristovski as senior

By BRANDON CARNEY

Daily Sports Writer

Through 
the 
first 
three 

years of her career, Madison 
Ristovski learned from her older 
teammates, but now she fills the 
veteran role.

The guard is one of just two 

scholarship 
seniors 
on 
the 

Michigan women’s basketball 
roster. 
In 
previous 
seasons, 

Ristovski found herself adapting 
to roles wherever the team 
needed her. From appearing off 
the bench as the Wolverines’ 
sixth player in her sophomore 
season to being an outside 
shooting 
threat 
in 
certain 

situations last year, Ristovski 
has collected an assortment of 
experiences.

Ristovski has been able to 

contribute wherever she has 
played, averaging five points and 
two assists per game through her 
career as well as proving herself 
to be a 3-point threat.

But the senior’s consistency 

has been the strongest asset of 
her game, and Michigan will 
need it now more than ever.

With 
a 
lack 
of 
proven 

upperclassmen, 
Michigan 

coach Kim Barnes Arico has 
been working hard at grooming 
Ristovski into her new role as the 
Wolverines’ go-to leader.

“I think being a senior and 

having a lot of experience, I’ve 
been able to talk to the younger 
girls about the games I’ve played 
in and the way we practice,” 
Ristovski said. “Having that 
experience, I can help them. 
With my help, the freshmen 
and others can become better 
players.”

Whether 
showing 
the 

freshmen the ropes on the 
court or confidently answering 
questions at Big Ten Media Day 
in Rosemont, Ill., three weeks 
ago, Ristovski is proving herself 
as a vocal force in all areas.

In the weeks preceding the 

Wolverines’ 
opening 
set 
of 

games, Ristovski has stressed 
to her young teammates the 
importance of staying focused.

The 5-foot-10 guard has been 

a part of several talented rosters 
in the past few years but admits 
this year’s squad could have the 
highest ceiling of them all.

With a lot of excitement 

surrounding a top-20 freshman 
class and a rising star, sophomore 
guard 
Katelynn 
Flaherty, 

Ristovski has managed to keep 
Michigan’s 
best 
intentions 

within Crisler Center and not let 
the hype get to the team.

“One of the biggest things 

this team is focused on is that 
we’re not going to worry about 
what others are saying about 
us,” Ristovski said. “The only 
people who we care about what 
they think are in this gym right 
now. We have expectations for 
ourselves, 
and 
remembering 

that, we’re not going to get 
rattled by what anyone else says.”

Working with the group of 

nine underclassmen has been 
challenging, but the senior is 
enjoying it. She doesn’t feel as 
much pressure on Michigan 
than in years past, and it’s 
been Ristovski’s job to remind 
the underclassmen not to take 
anything for granted.

“This year, I think because 

we are so young, we bring a 
lot of energy,” Ristovski said. 
“But we need to also bring the 
understanding that we can’t take 
any possessions off. Everyone 
here is talented, but we’ll have to 
see when the games start if we’re 
mature.”

While the guard brings a lot 

of expertise to the table, she 
lacks the experience of playing in 
several consecutive high-minute 
contests. Ristovski has appeared 
in 102 games in her career but 
has landed in the starting five 
just 19 times.

Even 
for 
a 
veteran 
like 

herself, 
educating 
others 

could very well be a unique 
opportunity even for Ristovski. 
Not only can Ristovski help the 
Wolverines reach the high bar 
they’ve set for themselves, but 
she can also begin to instill the 
championship 
mindset 
that 

Barnes Arico desires to establish 
in order to sustain a rising 
Michigan program.

MEN’S SOCCER
Slow start dooms 
‘M’ at Ohio State

By ORION SANG

For the Daily

The Michigan men’s soccer 

team came into Wednesday 
night’s 
matchup 
looking 
to 

avenge last 
year’s 
season-
ending loss to Ohio State.

But the 15th-ranked Buckeyes 

scored 
off 
two 
Wolverine 

miscues in the first half, and 
Michigan was unable to respond, 
falling 3-1. The regular-season 
finale leaves the Wolverines (3-3-
2 Big Ten, 8-5-4 overall) without 
home-field advantage in the 
conference tournament.

“It’s a difficult one,” said 

senior forward James Murphy. 
“Unfortunately, we just didn’t 
catch a few breaks tonight.”

Michigan had a chance to earn 

a share of the regular-season 
conference title, but it was Ohio 
State (5-2-1, 11-5-2) that was 
celebrating its championship-
clinching win at the end of the 
game.

Both teams had chances to 

score early on, with possession 
fairly even between the two 
rivals. However, the Buckeyes 
started to control the ball on the 
Wolverines’ side of the field, and 
their efforts soon paid off.

Ohio 
State 
was 
able 
to 

capitalize off a key Michigan 
mistake to score its first goal. 
Junior defender Andre Morris 
misplayed a ball, and Buckeye 
midfielder 
Kyle 
Culbertson 

pounced on it and launched it 
past sophomore goalkeeper Evan 
Louro.

Less than 10 minutes later, 

another crucial mistake allowed 
Ohio State to extend its lead.

Louro blocked a corner from 

Ohio State’s Liam Doyle, but 
the deflection bounced off the 
backside of Buckeye midfielder 
Zach Mason into the goal.

“There weren’t any defensive 

breakdowns,” 
said 
Michigan 

coach Chaka Daley. “There were 
just mistakes. They were very 
fortunate. We made mistakes, 
and they didn’t.”

Following 
Mason’s 
goal, 

Michigan headed into the second 
half down two goals despite its 
good start. The deficit proved to 
be insurmountable.

However, 
the 
Wolverines 

began to up their play in a game 
that became increasingly chippy 
— the second half alone included 
five yellow cards.

“I think there was a little bit 

of frustration,” Murphy said. 
“We were desperate to win the 
game.”

In the 54th minute, Ohio State 

scored to extend its lead when 
Culbertson received a pass from 
forward Yaw Amankwa and 
slipped the ball past Louro once 
again for his second goal of the 
night.

The Wolverines finally got 

on the scoreboard in the 84th 
minute when Murphy scored his 
second goal in two games off an 
assist from freshman defender 
Peter Brown. But it was too little, 
too late.

With the loss, and other 

conference-wide results from 
other games Wednesday factored 
in, the Wolverines will enter this 
weekend’s Big Ten Tournament 
as the No. 6 seed in a road game 
at Maryland.

“We said afterwards that we’ve 

got some more soccer to play,” 
Murphy said, “and we’re going to 
go into this Big Ten Tournament 
and continue to battle.”
