Michigan signs pair 
of top-level recruits

The 
Michigan 
women’s 

basketball team came into the 
2016-17 season expecting big 
things from freshman guard 
Kysre Gondrezick, who scored 
72 points in a playoff game for 
Benton Harbor High School and 
was named Miss Basketball in the 
State of Michigan.

While the Wolverines have 

played just two games so far, 
Gondrezick 
has 
showcased 

her basketball prowess in both 
contests. In Michigan’s victories 
over Oakland and Niagara, she 
scored a total of 31 points, totaling 
nine assists and three steals in a 
combined 35 minutes of play.

Gondrezick’s 
performances 

were enough to win her the honor 
of Big Ten Freshman of the Week, 
an award now-sophomore center 
Hallie Thome won last year.

“(Gondrezick) does have the 

chance to be a really special 
player,” said Michigan coach 
Kim Barnes Arico. “She comes 
from two parents who played 
basketball at the highest level. She 
has grown up in the gym. She has 
a great feel for the game.”

This week, the Wolverines 

signed two new recruits that 
will likely have similarly lofty 
expectations next season.

One of them is guard Deja 

Church of Southfield, Mich. She is 
the No. 67 prospect in the nation 
according to Prospects Nation 
and was named Michigan Class 
A Player of the Year in 2015-16 
while leading Southfield Lathrup 
to a 21-5 season. Like Gondrezick 
last year, Church is a candidate 
for Miss Basketball this year.

Church’s 
transition 
to 

Michigan next season will be 
easier than it is for most, as she 

played AAU Basketball with 
Gondrezick 
and 
freshman 

forward KeAsja Peace on the 
Michigan Crossover.

“(Church) is a tough-nosed 

guard,” Barnes Arico said. “An 
important thing for us, really 
what we’ve tried to do the last 
few years is to try to get the best 
player in the state to stay at home. 
She had initially decided to go 
elsewhere and before signing day, 
she changed her mind and said, ‘I 
can’t let this opportunity at the 
University of Michigan pass me 
by.’ ”

Barnes Arico traveled a little 

further to find her other big-name 
recruit.

Forward Hailey Brown, the 

No. 38 prospect according to 
HoopGurlz, 
will 
move 
from 

Hamilton, Ontario, to play for the 
Wolverines. Brown has played 
for the Canadian National Team 
since 2013 and averaged 10.0 
points and 8.8 rebounds in five 
games at the 2016 U18 FIBA 
Americas competition.

“Brown is an outstanding ‘4’ 

player,” Barnes Arico said. “With 
Jillian Dunston being a senior 
next year, that’s an area where we 
wanted to add a player for sure. 
She is a 6-foot-2 kid who can play 
with her back to the basket. She 
has international experience and 
has traveled the world playing 
basketball since the age of 14.”

Church and Brown will be 

essential additions to Michigan 
in 2017-18, as the Wolverines 
will lose senior guards Siera 
Thompson and Danielle Williams 
to graduation after this year.

While next season is still a long 

way away, Church and Brown 
should give Michigan two new 
faces to get excited about, just like 
Gondrezick and Thome did the 
last two years.

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL

SAM MOUSIGIAN/Daily

The Michigan men’s basketball team will face its first true test of the season Thursday when it takes on Marquette.

‘M’ to open 2K Classic with Marquette

Once again, the Big Apple 

is beckoning for the Michigan 
men’s basketball team.

Last season, the Wolverines 

traveled 
to 
Madison 
Square 

Garden to take part in the 
Big 
Ten’s 
inaugural 
“Super 

Saturday” event on Jan. 30, 
which featured a basketball and 
hockey 
doubleheader 
against 

Penn State. Michigan won that 
contest, 79-72, and now, it is 
returning to The World’s Most 
Famous Arena on Thursday to tip 
off against Marquette in the 2K 
Classic Championship Round.

“I can’t wait,” said senior 

guard Zak Irvin. “(We are) 1-0 
since I’ve been in the Garden. (It 
was) nice to play there last year 
against Penn State. It’s always 
nice going to New York because 
it feels like a home game, just 
from the alums and fans we have 
across the country.”

The 
Wolverines 
notched 

two wins against Howard and 
IUPUI in the tournament’s 
Ann Arbor regional, but those 
programs are a far cry from the 
competition they will be facing 
as the season rolls onward.

The matchup with the Golden 

Eagles, on the other hand, could 
provide the first true barometer 
of where Michigan stands.

Outside 
of 
losing 
Henry 

Ellenson, who led the team in 
both points and rebounds per 
game his freshman year before 
being drafted 18th overall by 
the Detroit Pistons, the Golden 
Eagles are returning most of 
their major contributors.

Center Luke Fischer and 

guards Haanif Cheanham and 
Traci Carter figure to be the 
most notable of that mix.

Fischer 
and 
Cheanham 

finished 
second 
and 
third, 

respectively, behind Ellenson 
in both scoring and rebounding 
last 
year, 
while 
Carter 
is 

entering his second year as 
Marquette’s point guard after 
averaging 4.6 assists through 
33 games during his freshman 
campaign.

Though it’s a limited sample 

size, the Golden Eagles have 
elected to start four guards 
alongside Fischer through the 

first two games this season.

With ample scorers on the 

perimeter, Marquette is poised 
to be Michigan’s first real 
opportunity to see how far 
it has come defensively after 
hiring assistant coach Billy 
Donlon. It’s not often that the 
Wolverines are the bigger team 
on the floor, but the Golden 
Eagles’ personnel could prove 
beneficial for Michigan.

“I think all of our guys have 

done a great job just holding 
each other accountable and just 
knowing that defense does win 
championships,” 
Irvin 
said. 

“That’s one of the huge things 
that we want to have a point of 
emphasis on this year, is be able 
to defend people, and I think 
this is going to be a good test 
for us, going against Marquette 
tomorrow.”

Added Michigan coach John 

Beilein: “They’ve only got the 
two big guys that are playing, 
Fischer and Heldt — he’s 6-foot-

10. We’ve got five of those guys 
on our roster. They’ve really got 
more depth on the perimeter. 
Hopefully, our size at some of 
those positions may affect some 
things, especially DJ (Wilson) 
and 
Duncan 
(Robinson) 
at 

6-foot-8, 6-foot-10.”

While 
it 
may 
have 
an 

advantage 
on 
the 
boards, 

especially 
with 
Wilson 

averaging 11 rebounds per game, 
there are still some aspects that 
could spell doom for Michigan.

The 
Wolverines 
have 

been plagued by slow starts 
so far this season. Against 
Howard, 
Michigan 
couldn’t 

get on the board until junior 
guard Muhammad-Ali Abdur-
Rahkman sank a 3-pointer over 
five minutes into the first half. 
In their matchup with IUPUI, 
it was more of the same, as the 
Wolverines traded baskets with 
the Jaguars until shots started 
to fall in the final four minutes.

That 
issue 
could 
be 

compounded by Marquette’s 
aggressive defense, which is 
tied for 23rd nationally with 
10.5 steals per game.

“For some reason, we’ve come 

out and haven’t got off to a type 
of start we want to get to, but we 
can have those good runs at the 
end of the half,” Beilein said. “I 
know Marquette, their steals 
are really high. They’re going 
to come out and try to impose 
their will. If we do not take care 
of the ball and make the shots 
we’ll get behind early. We’ve 
got to really take care of the ball 
from the very beginning.”

If the Wolverines come out 

sleepwalking Thursday, they 
could be staring at their first 
loss of the season.

***

Depending on its outcome 

against Marquette, Michigan will 
face either Southern Methodist 
or Pittsburgh on Friday.
Big Ten roundup

Just two weeks remain before 

the No. 16 Michigan hockey team 
kicks off Big Ten conference play 
in December against Penn State. 
At this point in the season, each 
of the teams in the conference 
have had a chance to establish 
a résumé. Here, we break down 
their 
preseason 
results 
in 

preparation for the upcoming 
Big Ten season.

No. 7 Minnesota

The Golden Gophers have 

played just eight games so far 
this season and have skated to 
a 4-2-2 record, with both losses 
at the hands of No. 12 St. Cloud 
State.

However, one of Minnesota’s 

most redeeming qualities that 
has been evident so far this year 
is the depth on its roster. Four 
different players have scored 
four goals each over the course 
of eight games, with 13 of the 21 
players on the roster recording 
at least one goal.

No. 10 Penn State

Not only have the Nittany 

Lions made program history 
with their highest-ever ranking 
in the USCHO poll this week, but 
senior captain David Goodwin 
also became the first Penn State 
player to reach 100 career goals. 
The Nittany Lions are currently 
holding on to a seven-game 
win streak and have an overall 
record of 9-1-1.

Penn State boasts an .864 win 

percentage for the season, the 
best in the Big Ten. The Nittany 
Lions will host Michigan in the 
teams’ first pair of conference 
games in two weeks.

No. 14 Ohio State

Like Penn State, Ohio State 

has only recorded one loss this 
season, a 6-2 game agaist Robert 
Morris. Also like Penn State, the 
Buckeyes have played 11 games 
so far, racking up a 6-1-4 record. 

Their penchant for ties isn’t 
exactly helping them move up in 
the polls, but it hasn’t hurt them 
either. They were ranked at the 
same spot last week.

The Buckeyes have plenty 

of seniority on their team, 
and they recently had two 
senior 
forwards 
receive 

weekly honors stemming from 
their 
performances 
against 

Connecticut last week. Nick 
Schilkey is currently tied for 
second in the NCAA in goals and 
recently tallied the 100th of his 
career, while David Gust scored 
four goals in a single game. Their 
contributions have helped Ohio 
State’s offense establish itself as 
one of the best in the country. 

Wisconsin

The Badgers have only played 

eight games so far this season, 
like Minnesota, but they’ve 
tacked on an additional win and 
loss for a mark of 5-3-0. 

Despite the fact that the 

Gophers 
are 
tied 
for 
10th 

nationally 
in 
offense, 
their 

struggling defense — which 
is ranked 48th and let up a 
combined eight goals in two 
losses to Northern Michigan — 
has held them back.

Michigan State

Michigan State rounds out 

the bottom of the Big Ten, with 
twice as many losses as wins 
(3-6-0). It suffered a pair of one-
sided losses (6-1 and 7-3) against 
Lake Superior State, whom the 
Wolverines will face after their 
next exhibition against the U.S. 
National 
Team 
Development 

Program. The Spartans have 
also lost two games to No. 1 
Denver and one game each to 
Michigan Tech and Ferris State.

However, both of Michigan 

State’s losses to Denver (7-2-1) 
were particularly low-scoring. 
The first game ended with the 
then-No. 6 Pioneers scraping 
out a 2-1 victory, where all three 
goals were scored in the third 
period. The second game settled 
at 3-1.
