Anyway, just a weekend sports update. Michigan has a winning streak in the Big Ten in basketball for the first time since last year: the Wolverines beat Iowa at Carver-Hawkeye, 68-60. They scored 44 in the second half to Iowa's 25, which is phenomenal against Iowa's stingy defense. The boys play Ohio State at home tomorrow at 1 PM on CBS, and Coach Rod will be speaking at halftime.
In hockey, Michigan beat Lake Superior State 4-2, with senior Chad Kolarik scoring all four goals (!); meanwhile, Ferris State upset No. 2 Miami-Ohio (YESSSS!) to give Michigan a lead of 3 points in the CCHA. Spartina recovered from last weekend's hilarious and satisfying rout at the hands of lowly Northern Michigan (outscored 6-1 in a weekend series, anyone?) to defeat Western, the worst team in the CCHA, 3-0 at the Library (i.e., Munn Ice Arena); the Aggies remain five points below Big Brother.
