‘M’ looks for season sweep

By BRAD WHIPPLE

Daily Sports Editor

It is said lightning never strikes 

twice in the same place, and that 
could spell trouble for the Michigan 
women’s basketball team.

Thursday, 

the Wolverines 
(3-5 Big Ten, 
11-8 overall) will 
face Iowa for 
the second time 
this 
season. 

Both teams left 
off two weeks 
ago in dramatic 
fashion, 
when 

Michigan 
completed 
a 
stunning 

17-point 
comeback 
against 
the 

Hawkeyes in Crisler Center.

Now, the Wolverines are hoping 

to earn their first season sweep of 
Iowa since the 2009-10 season. But 
on the road, comebacks are much 
harder to muster.

“If you get in a hole that deep 

on the road, it’s gonna be tough 
to come back,” said Michigan 
coach Kim Barnes Arico. “Playing 
at Iowa, they always have great 
crowds, and they’ll have a great 
atmosphere, so that’ll be a little 
bit challenging.”

A struggling Michigan defense 

won’t make it any easier. Though 
the Wolverines are scoring 81.5 
points per game, good for eighth 
nationally and third in the Big 
Ten, offense can’t win games 
alone. Michigan is 10-2 when 
scoring 80 points or more, but its 
two losses have come in its most 
recent games.

Sunday 
against 
Nebraska, 

Michigan gave up 93 points and 

allowed the Cornhuskers to take 
a 21-6 lead just five minutes into 
the game.

The 
game 
prior, 
the 

Wolverines lost to No. 7 Ohio 
State by just four points after 
allowing four Buckeyes to reach 
double digits in scoring.

“We really do have to get 

better defensively,” Barnes Arico 
said. “We have some really 
great 
offensive-minded 
kids, 

but none that really — maybe 
Siera Thompson, maybe Danielle 
Williams — that want to defend. 
Other than that, they want the ball 
in their hands and want to score. 

“We have to get them to 

believe that playing defense is 
just as important to our program 
as playing offense. For us to 
be successful, we need some 
defensive stoppers and defensive-
minded people.”

Considering 
that 
the 

Wolverines were barely averaging 
60 points in Barnes Arico’s first 
year at the helm, scoring 80 points 
is not necessarily a bad thing. But 
Michigan will need to make a 
similar improvement on defense 
to make the NCAA Tournament.

According to Barnes Arico, 

it’s the younger kids who “don’t 
really understand defense yet” — 
a sentiment she shared with men’s 
basketball coach John Beilein. 
Freshman center Hallie Thome, 
for instance, scored a game-high 
24 points against Nebraska on 
Sunday, but fouled out of the 
game in the fourth quarter.

Thome is a major piece of the 

Wolverines’ 
lineup, 
especially 

under the glass, and without her, 
senior guard Madison Ristovski 
had to take on the Cornhuskers’ 
bigs in the paint. Considering 
Ristovski is 5-foot-10, it was a 
defensive mismatch. 

To work out some of the 

defensive kinks, Michigan has 
placed a large emphasis on it at 
practice throughout the week. 
Heading into Thursday, the 
Wolverines have the advantage 
of already playing Iowa once 
this season.

“It’s 
nice 
having 
an 

opportunity to go back and watch 
us play against them and see 
where we really need to improve 
for the next game,” Barnes Arico 
said. “Iowa’s a great team. They 
were off to a tremendous start, 
and then they hit a little bit of a 
bump in the road. I think that’s 
what our conference has kind of 
been all year long — everybody’s 
beating everybody.

“(Iowa’s) on a little bit of a skid.”
With two straight losses, the 

Wolverines are in similar danger. 
They’ll need to steal a win on the 
road to break out of it.

ICE HOCKEY
Michigan set for 
pivotal weekend

Wolverines take on 
No. 15 Penn State in 
State College, then 
in New York City

By JASON RUBINSTEIN

Daily Sports Writer

Michigan’s top line is the best 

in the country. That could seem 
like a sweeping statement, but 
the stats tell the 
whole story.

In 
the 
10 

games 
that 

juniors 
Tyler 

Motte and JT 
Compher 
and 

freshman Kyle 
Connor 
have 

skated 
as 
a 

trio, they have 
accumulated 64 
points.

“You 
can’t 

create 
those 

things,” 
said 

Michigan coach 
Red Berenson. “It’s special.”

No team has shown the ability 

to stop the three forwards 
together so far, but this weekend 
will 
be 
the 
toughest 
test. 

Thursday night, No. 6 Michigan 
will travel to 
No. 
15 
Penn 

State to play 
one game, and 
both 
teams 

will 
head 

to 
Madison 

Square Garden 
in New York 
City 
two 

days 
later 

for a second 
matchup.

In previous seasons, Penn State 

has had the Wolverines’ number. 
Two years ago, the Nittany Lions 
ended Michigan’s season in the 
Big Ten Tournament, as the 
Wolverines needed to beat them 
only in that game to advance to 
the NCAA Tournament.

Last season, Penn State beat 

Michigan three out of the four 
times they played, including a 
road sweep at the Pegula Ice 
Arena — one of the toughest 
venues in the country with its 
nightly sellouts, committed fans 
and vertical bleachers that seem 
to be on top of the ice.

“Definitely a rink we want to 

keep quiet,” said senior forward 
Justin Selman.

Look 
for 
Michigan’s 
first 

line to do just that. With Motte 
and Compher being two of the 
Wolverines’ 
hardest-working 

players, and Connor perhaps the 
their most skilled player, no line 
has found an answer for them.

“It’s 
worked 
well 
with 

Connor’s 
skill, 
his 
ability 

to 
make 
plays 
and 
finish 

opportunities,” 
Motte 
said. 

“JT’s grinding ability — he’s a 
good two-way center man — 
helps a lot in the D-zone and on 
faceoffs. (Compher’s) ability to 
make plays is unbelievable, and 
I just try to give those guys the 
puck, and try to put away my 
opportunities when I get them.”

The trio is the biggest reason 

for 
Michigan’s 
astounding, 

nation-leading 4.86 goals per 
game. However, that offense can 
only take a team so far when the 
same team ranks 44th in team 
defense, surrendering 3.10 goals 
per game.

For this reason, Berenson 

has emphasized team defense 
in the weeks leading up to this 
weekend. The Wolverines have 
prioritized clearing pucks out the 
zone and limiting any rebound 
chances — something Ohio State 
capitalized on a couple of weeks 

ago. 
Selman 

said the team 
knows 
its 

goaltending 
can handle the 
initial shot. It’s 
the team’s job 
to make sure 
there isn’t a 
second.

Michigan 

will 
feature 

a bit of a different lineup this 
weekend — sophomore forward 
Dexter 
Dancs 
is 
suspended 

for 
Thursday’s 
game, 
while 

sophomore defenseman Cutler 
Martin is suspended for the 
weekend. 
Freshman 
center 

Cooper Marody will also be 
out this weekend due to illness, 
meaning junior forward Max 
Shuart will likely slot up from his 
fourth-line role to the third-line 
center position.

Regardless, the Wolverines 

know what’s at stake this 
weekend. With their biggest 
test to date and a depleted 
lineup, look for the first line to 
lead the charge.

Sophomore guard Katelynn Flaherty enters Thursday’s game ranked 13th in the nation with 21.7 points per game.

were, 
when 
Michigan 
was 

playing football, we stopped 
whatever we were doing, and we 
were watching,” the source said. 
“During some of (Connecticut’s) 
football games, when he was 
focused on our game, he would 
have 
the 
Michigan 
game 

recorded at his home. Nobody 
was allowed to tell him what the 
final score was.”

Among Manuel’s more notable 

achievements at Connecticut is 
the men’s basketball program’s 
remarkable 
resurrection 

following 
a 
postseason 
ban 

issued by the NCAA in 2012 for a 
low academic progress rate.

“It didn’t take Warde long to 

not only fix the APR but bring 
it to a perfect 1,000,” the source 
said. “The guy is a no-nonsense 
guy. He knows what needs to be 
done, and he 
gets it done.”

Despite his 

impressive 
resume, 
Manuel 
still 

inherits 
a 

high bar from 
Hackett. 
Since 
assuming 
the position, 
Hackett hired 
Harbaugh in December 2014, 
inked a record-setting apparel 
contract with Nike in July and 
extended 
men’s 
basketball 

coach John Beilein to a contract 
through the 2020-21 season in 
November.

Manuel’s hiring bucks a recent 

trend of hiring former corporate 
executives 
to 
run 
athletic 

departments. Former Michigan 

athletic director Bill Martin, 
who held the post from 2001 to 
2010, founded First Martin Corp. 
in 1968 and remains chairman of 
the Bank of Ann Arbor. Brandon 
was the CEO at Domino’s Pizza 
before he replaced Martin.

Manuel, 47, has no corporate 

experience, but he has built an 
impressive resume in athletics. 
He previously served as an 
assistant 
athletic 
director 
at 

Michigan under Tom Goss and 
then Bill Martin. He also served 
as the athletic director at the 
University of Buffalo from 2005 
to 2012.

University 
President 
Mark 

Schlissel 
told 
reporters 
in 
a 

December 
teleconference 
that 

corporate experience, while a 
potential plus, was far from critical.

“I’m looking for the best 

person for the job,” Schlissel said. 
“It is a $151-million enterprise. 
It’s 
a 
complex 
enterprise 

that requires somebody with 

business, 
accounting 
and 
leadership 
skills 
and 

experience. … 
The 
bottom 

line is we’re 
going to hire 
a spectacular 
person.” 

Many 

with ties to 

Connecticut’s program had long 
feared that Manuel would return 
to his alma mater, the source 
said, but his timeline for doing so 
was uncertain.

“He is an incredibly capable 

administrator, but more than 
that, he understands people,” the 
source said, lamenting Manuel’s 
departure. 
“He’s 
a 
freakin’ 

incredible guy — it sucks to be us.”

From Page 1A

“You can’t 
create those 
things. It’s 
special.”

“He knows 

what needs to 
be done, and he 

gets it done.”
