Renovations continue to
inconvenience students
by Jeremy Krause
News Writer
On-campus students may be
a little inconvenienced now, but
it's all being done for more convenience in the future.
DeBot is undergoing a $3.2
million renovation, which is
more than it cost to build the
dining center in 1965. The
project is being funded by student fees rather than by the taxpayers and is expected to be
completed sometime next fall.
Changes being made iri.clude
a larger lobby iO accommodate
students better in cold weather.
An overhang will also protect
students in foul weather.
Currently, the only accessible entrance is the north
entrance facing Knutzen Hall.
The new entrance will feature
restrooms and an elevator for
han~icapped access.
Jerry Lineberger, the Associate Director of the UniveP
sity Centers, said, . "Another
drastic change is that there will
not be as many hot food lines."
He said that students eat from
the salad bars more today than
they did in 1965.
There will also be new dish- .
washing machines installed that
are similar to the ones used in
the .Wooden Spoon. This is to
prevent dishes falling down the
shaft.
A circular driveway is also
planned instead of the straight
driveway being used--now to insure the safety of the students
and also for the convenience of
the truck drivers·.
The basement of Debot is not
escaping change either. An improved bakery will serve the
dieters' 'needs better. The roof
will also be replaced and.so will

"The University of Stevens
Point has one of the country's
fmest housing programs," said
Randy Alexander, the new
director of Res~dence Life.
Alexander succeeded Robert
Nicholson in January after
Nicholson became UWSP's
Student Conduct Officer.
Randy Alexander.
Residence IJife Director
Alexander! is now responsible for the tdtal operation of
the 12 residence halls and the
direction of their 3,500 residents. He will also be in charge
of a staff of 50 full-time professionals and several hundred
part-time student workers.
Alexander came from
Wichita State, which is twice
the ·size of UWSP but only has
1,000 on-c~us residents.
Alexander was chosen out of 30
applicants for the position here.
"I 'g ot to know the people
here and their program through
business conferences and I was
very impressed. For the town's
size, it has a lot to offer," said
Alexander.
One of the first tasks as director will ·be developing new
living options for students and
overseeing
residence
hall
renovations.
"The master plan for the halls
is to change them, make them
different from each other. Not
all students are the same, they
have different needs. The halls
should serve those different
needs. One of the things we're
planning is an upperclass hall
that will have suites and semiprivate baths," said Alexander.
Beginning this summer,
Pray-Sims will undergo total
renovation. An elevator will be
installed for use by the handicapped.
The age and obsolescence of
all the halls will require major
work in the next few years.
Alexander believes that the
buildings are well-suited to
structural alterations.
A native from Fort Worth,
Texas, he hold$ a bachelor's and
master's degree from East
Texas State University in Commerce.
Alexander began his career
in collegiate housing work as a
residence hall director at
Eastern lllinois University in
Charlest<>n.
Later assignments -were as
assistant dean of students at
Stephen F. Austin State University in Nacogdoches, Texas, for
two years, · then director of
residential living at Southwestern Texas State in San Marcos for two years before going
to Wichita.
He is past president of the
Upper Midwest Region of the
Association of College and
University Housing Officers.
He is married and has two
children.
Renovations continue to progress on DeBot. The $3.2 million project should
reach completion-sometime next fall semester. Pictured are changes being made

Former Pointer in jail again
by Sarah Sell _ ·
Contributor
Former Pointer football
player, Keith Lenard Majors,
who oost the football team a
share of the NAIA Division II
championship in 1987, has been
leading a life of crime since his
days at UWSP.
·
Majors is currently being,
held in the Milwaukee County
Jail for a felony forgery charge
and two rnisdemeanor counts of
obstructing an officer..He could
face up to 16 years in prison if convicted.
When Majors was charged
with these crimes, he was al-
ready on probation for felony
charges in Texas and misdemeanor charges in Portage
County.
The former athletic star's
troubles began when he and
teammate Aatron Kenney transferred from Angelo State in San
Angelo, Texas, to UWSP. Bo_th
failed to inform university officials that their eligibility to play
football had been used up.
Majors was the second leading rusher for the Pointers and
he was also the team's third
leading receiver. The team
ended the 1987 season with a
1-3-1-1 record and tied for the
Fees go into effect Feb. 18
by Kelly Lecker
News Writer
Membership fees for the
new Health Enhancement
Center will be put into effect
starting February 18. These ~
fees will be ch'arged to university personnel and members of
the public who wish to use the
fitness and recreation center.
"There will still be absolutely no fee for the students," said
Dr. Jerry: Gotham, director of
physical education. "The students have already paid for the
center."
For a recreation membership,
the public will pay $150 annually or $20 monthly; senior
citizens will be charged $25 annually an~ guests, $5 per day.
. University personnel and a
spouse will have to pay $50 per
person each year. The children
of university workers will be
charged $10 annually.
The membership fees were
created by a university committee and were ·then approved by
the Faculty Senate.
"The money collected will be
used mainly for supervision of
the facilities," said Gotham.
This will include both student
and faculty supervisors.
The Faculty Senate defeated
a proposal by John Munson,
chair of the School of Health,
Physical Education, Recreation,
and Athletics, for the installation of 100 parking spaces on
the west side of the center. The
Senate instead proposed using
the area for greenery and installing only six parking stalls for
handicapped parking.
"The decision for parking is
now in the hands of the Chancellor," said Gotham, "and he is expected to decide that matter very
soon."

After Majors' and Kenney's
ineligibility was revealed, the
. team had to forfeit its games and
give up the title they shared.
In the time that followed,
Majors was charged for issuing
worthless checks and fraudulent
use of credit cards. Majors disappeared from Stevens Point
before he was actually convicted of the charges.
He was found at a motel in
Portage County using a false
name. After being arrested,
Majors attempted to' hang himself in July 1988 in a Portage
County Jail cell.
_
·
Majors spent time under
psychiatric evaluation and was
put on probation for four years.
He now faces having his probation revoked because of the new
charges.

THE BIG PICTURE
Nelson Mandela warned
that if economic sanctions
against South Africa are lifted
by the European community his
African National Congress will
make t:Jte country so unstable investors will be scared off.
The 12-member European
community formally supported
lifting sanctions when the
government moved to repeal
certain apartheid laws.
W
The South African Parliament scrapped the Population
Registration Act, the Group
Areas Act and the Land Areas
Act, which determined where
certain people could live, work,
eat and be born or buried.
However, the passing of these
acts has only symbolic meaning
at this point for all black South
Africans.
The classification system now
used in South Africa will not be
changed for current citizens
(having been previously classified). It will only prevent those
born from now on from being
classified according to the old
laws. But even this must wait
until a new constitution is
ratified.

d"
Lithuanians defied President Gorbachev's appeals and
overwhelmingly voted for inde· pendence from Moscow. 90
percent af all votes cast were in
fayor of the independence
move, which saw about 85 percent of all eligible Lithuanians
vote. This decisive event is ex- .
pected to encourage other
republics to similar action.
The Soviets are also considering dissolving the Warsaw
Pact, Eastern Europe's answer
to NATO. Poland, Czechos. lovakia, Hungary Romania and
Bulgaria all support the move. A
conference ~ a later date is
being planned to discuss the
matter more seriously.
W
Last week California officials said the state-contr.olled
water supply system would cut
off all farmers in the San Joaquin Valley from water through
irrigation systems, which will
result in over 500,000 acres of
fields not being planted, adding
up to $2 billion in lost agricultural production.
The San Joaquin Valley currently grows one-half of the
nation's fruits, nuts ·.and
vegetables. Experts, however,
claim that this will have little effect ·o n food prices at the supermarket. Slight increase will be
seen in foods Slich as
cauliflower, broccoli, almonds
and peaches, with the largest.increase to be seen in lettuce.
d"
After a decade of what
department officials call "semineglect," stemming from extra
programs, more students and the
removal of cauliflower asbestos, Wisconsin is building and
refurbishing i~ state school
buildings at its highest level in
15 years. This year, $413 mlllion in construction projects
were either beSllJl or planned.
Taxpayers are l?eing asked to
fund a large percentage of this
construction.
While burglaries in Milwaukee declined about 5 percent this past year, the number
of robberies SO&fed 80 percent.
Law officials there blame the increase in the spontaneity and
quickness of robberies over the
plaimed strategy of a burglary.

A few days ago I was watching a television program with a
group of people about women
who had such severe postpartum depression after giving
birth that it developed into a
psychotic state and possessed
them to become very hostile and
to go ~o far as to kill their own
babies.
·
As we listened to these
women recall 1 some obviously
very ·painful memories of how
they murdered what was once a
part of them without even realizing what they were doing, I
couldn't help feeling deep sympathy for them. They were obviously sick and in need of help.

Steps for alleviating
problem hook snags
by Buck Jennings
Contributor
The fish are in there thick, but
so are the wood, rocks, concrete,
cables, and re-bar. These are
just some of the lure eating
structure encountered while
fishing rivers. A few tips and
some planning ahead can help
prevent the tragedy and heart
wrenching pain and suffering
that accompanies the loss of a
loved lure.
First, assess the situation,
watching the current for breaks
and patterns that indicate underwater fish holding structure. If
you can get upstream of the
chosen fishing spot do so.
Allow your bait to drift
downstream to the fish. This is
a natural presentation, and it's
what the fish are expecting.
When your line snags you can
pop it upstream, opposite the
direction it carne from.
When casting upstream,
don't cast farther up than you
can walk. If you get hooked up
and you can walk past your lure
you can tug it from the opposite
direction. 90 percent of the time
it will pop out.
If you are retrieving a lure
upstream against the current and
you snag up, don't panic.
Quickly give the lure slack. If it
remains snagged continue to
give it slack until a "bell" in the
line forms downstream of the
lure. Lock your bail and take up .
some of the extra slack. A
quick, sweeping jerk (sounds
_like a janitor I once knew) will
often pop out the lure.
Finally, if you or sobebody
else keeps getting snagged in
one spot,

parameters. I often fmd myself
fishing below darns in snag infested waters and I often fmd
myself completely broke.
In the spring of the year,
when the water temperatures
reach the 40 d·egree range, walleyes will begin to · move
upstream to darns and ruffles to
feed, pre-spawn. When water
temps increaSe to 45 arid 50,
large female walleyes will move
upstream to join the males who
preceded them. They will feed
heavily before spawning.
These fish will continue to
feed in heavy rip-rap, and turbulent oxygenated water from
pre-spawn through post spawn
before most rnove back to their
deeper, downstream haunts.
Anglers often capitalize on
these feeding frenzies. Floating
jigs, lead-he!lds and occasionally sonars and crank baits are
most common in the angler's arsenal.
The baits must be
weighty to reach the bottom in
these turbul~nt waters, and
snags are common in the
obligatory rocks that surround
the walleyes spawn cycle areas.
Well, jigs snag all the time.
The weights required to reach
the fish make them harder for
the fish to inhale. I watched
Babe Winkleman once (How
come his name is Babe, and his
wife's name is Charley?
Domestic role reversal?)
ge explained how walleyes
were only hitting on fuzzy grubs
with the fuzz pulled out of them.
Is this guy on. acid? Are we
jiggin' and wiggin' with Babe
and his domihltrix wife Charley?
Fuzzy grubs are $1.85 apiece.
I don't know . about you but I
don't have tackle endorsements
or the opportunity to get my
baits for free.
Another
9ownside to jigs are their hooks.
They are too big, too small, too
dull, too brittle, and they rust.
How about a Lindy Rig and
a floater? Once again, they snag
· often. Littering the river with
lead, while not economically
feasible is also bad environmental science. (There's talk of
banning lead fishing weights,
·then what?)
As for the floating jig head,
the hooks suck and they're expensive. When properly rigged
they hang upside down. Oh,
that's natural. They also tend to
be hard, offering little incentive
for Mrs. Marble eyes to hang
on. The soft floaters on the
market are even more of a
screw, money-wise.
You're talking to the perpetually broke money'making
genius who invented the absolute value checkbook (the
more you spend, the more you
earn).
Well this does leave the college angler in a quandary.
When the going gets tough the
tough go fishing and poverty is
the seed of invention. My infinite quest for a better cheaper
way gave birth to the Buck Jennings
neutrally
weighted
floater, natural bait presentation.
A small roughly round segment of a twister tail serves. as a
"float" and a fish attractor. I
prefer chartreuse. But other
colors have their days. B.ite off
a small piece of a twister tail or
a rubber worm before tying on
your ·hook. Using your hook
like a sewing needle, thread
your line through. Pierce your
rubber segment through the cen,.
ter and pull your line through.
Slide the segment up the line to
get it out of your way.
Additionally, a small plastic
bead is threaded on the line.
This will keep the rubber segment from sliding down the line
and onto your hook where it can
impair hook penetration. Now
you can add your hook. I like a
#6 aberdeen type hook. They
are very sharj:> and if they get
snagged, a few pops and they'll
straighten out.
The rig is
retrieved, the hook is reshaped
and the rig lives to catch again,
not decorate the bottom and tap
the pocket book.
Because this rig does not
float, rather the current picks it
up off the bottom, very little
weight is needed. I can usually
get by with a split shot or two.
Heavier currents might warrant
the addition of a bell sinker but
remember this must be determined , before the rigging is
done. Snap on type barrel
sinkers
have
proven
worthwhile.
The hook is tipped with a
minnow or a nightcrawler and
the right is fished. But how?
Well I'll tell you. The rig can
be still fished in the current, but
I prefer to keep it in motion.
Using minimal weight to avoid
costly snagging, cast the rig
upstream. Allow the bait to
continue downstream while
keeping your rod tip up. Keep
light tension on the line so you
can feel the rig progress.
Picture the bottom and picture the fish. Allow the bait to
drift down to them. The fish are
waiting in slower water near
current breaks for injured bait
fish and forage to drift by. Un-
derstand the fish. They are expecting an easy meal with little
energy expenditure. Give them
what they want.
This rig allows the minnow
to look natural. It's not slamming down the bottom on a halfounce jig and it's not floating
upside down on a hard bogus
floater. The bait looks natural
and the eyes slam it. Because
the hook is smaller and the bait
is soft, they hang on. It's tough
to lose a fish using this method.
Try it, it works. Or don't try
it, see if I care. You might get
lucky and hook up with a
"bonus" carp. I caught an eighty
pounder this way last year. 1Try
it with crawlers in the summer
for walleyes and smallmouth.
Finally when you catch that
big-pig female walleye just full
of spawn, release her! If you
gotta keep them, keep the small
males. The big ones taste like
poo anyway. Slay and flllet.

Winter snows may have

but they are not out of the minds
of the Department of Natural

for their welfare year-round.
Much of the planning and

One of the sure signs of
spring is the emergent activities
of many of na~· s hibernating
creatures. In Wisconsin, for example, hearing sounds of frogs
in swamps and ponds is a sure
sign that spring is at hand.
Reptiles and amphibians are
ectothermic, which means their
body temperature is set by the
temperatures of the air, land or
water. When temperatures drop
below SO degrees, their activity
slows.
"Nature has provided for
their survival in cold tempera-

to go dormant," said Bob Hay,

Tutoring alternatives
to t.he bath-roont wall
byRon Wirtz
Editor-in-Chief
It's a cold, icy night. Your
final paper needs to be handed
in tomorrow, but_ you've seen
writing on the bathroom wall
with better organization than
your paper. So what do you do?
Usually you'd go to the
Academic Achievement Center,
where you can get on-the-spot
tutoring, even at night. But
tonight, it's just tQO cold out to
leave your hall room. You're
stuck. Or ~o you thought.
Starting on Sunday, Feb. 17,
and running through Monday,
Feb 25, the Academic Achievement Center will be going to the
· residence halls to do tutoring.
"We hope that by going into the
halls and demonstrating the
center's
usefulness
and .
availability, students will begin
to use the center on a regular
basis over their entire college
career," said Director Richard
Behm. He added, "Students in
the residence halls need to know
there is tutoring available for
any academic problem."
"House CJills" will run once a
}Veek (either Sunday or Monday
night) for two . weeks in each
residence hall. Interested students will sign up for a half hour
tutor session at night, which will
be hel4 right in their own hall.
Said Behm, "By bringing our
services to the halls, we hope
that students will see we are enthusiastic about helping them
reach their academic potential."
The program was initiated
after a survey showed that there
was a lack of awareness of the
Academic Achievement Center's services among students in
the residence halls.
The center, located in the basement of
the library, welcomes both walkins and appointments. It offers
help in both writing and reading.

which poses a problem for a student, be it Chaucer or psychology. Both labs can help you

they hibernate."
Two important needs must be
met while critters hibernate, according to Hay.
First, the
animal must remain protected
from freezing either by staying
in unfrozen, moving water or by
going below the frost line. They
still require oxygen. Second,
animals that go underground require moderate to heavy soil
moisture to keep from dehydrating and drying up in nature's
refrigerator.
"For most species·the hibernating period runs from midOctober to April," Hay said.
"This dormant time off from activity really compresses their active time for mating, producing
young and growing, to six or
seven months from April to October.
Some species, such as our
state's two types of rattlesnakes,
often have only five months of
activity because of . their intolerance for cool and pold
weather."
Right now the wood turtle
(Clemmys insculpta), a Wisconsin threatened species, is
generally hibernating iit open
water rather than burrowing
into the soil. Wood turtles rely
on moving water to keep from
freezing and to provide oxygen.
They don't breathe during
hibernation, according to Hay,
but can take in oxygen through
permanent gill-like structures
on the throat and through some
special
oxygen-gathering
glands in the cloaca (a body
cavity that the intestine empties
into).
"Tiie soft-shell turtle utilizes
oxygen similarly, as it also
transfers oxygen through its
skin, a process unique to that
turtle species in Wisconsin,"
Hay explained.
Many snake species congregate in great numbers in the
fall at denning sites called hibernaculum, which are underground areas below the frost
line. ~These areas provide the
necessary temperature and .
moisture needed for survival.
The messasauga rattlesnake
(Sisturus catenatus), a WisConsin endangered species, is one
exception to the · denning nile.
They usually hibernate alone in
crayfish burrows, often below
water level. ·~we don't know ·
the mechanisms· that allow the
massasagua to hibernate underwater," Hay said.
"And an exception to hibernating ·is the · mud puppy
(salamander) which remains active all year," Hay added. "Its
activities continue despite water
temperatures."
Insects behave a little differently during their winter inactive period. A threatened
butterfly, the Regal Fritillary .
(Speyeria idalia), a big showy
insect, winters aS young larva
in the leaf litter and duff in the
forest floor.
"This is a four-stage insect
that develops from an egg to the
larva stage and then to the pupa
and fmally adult stage," Tim .
Vogt, DNR zoologist, said.
"Another endanger,ed insect, the
northern . blue
butterfly
(Lycaeides idas), winters as an
egg."
The northern blue butterfly
only feeds on dwarf bilberry
(Vaccinium cespitosum), an endangered plant. Another endangered insect, the Phlox moth
(Schinia indiana), winters as a
pupa in the soil. It is found

Men's Basketball lose out on quest for revenge on Blugolds
By Ginger Parker
Sports Writer
The Men's Basketball team
took the floor Tuesday night in
Quandt
Fieldhouse
with
revenge in their eyes. UWSP
was out to redeem themselves
after getting killed by Eau Claire
on their home court.
Point raged onto the floor for
the battle versus the Blugolds,
but as the game grew short, the
Pointers also grew short. The
Pointers lost the crusher 71-66.
The Blugolds, now 21-2
overall and 12-2 in the conference, still control ftrst place.
Point's 13-9 overall and 6-6
conference record is keeping
them in the battle for a playoff
position.
In the ftrst half, the Pointers
took control of the game.
UWSP connected on 14 of 22
for 63.6 percent, while Eau
Claire could only hit on 11 of 26
for 42.3 percent. This sharp
shooting by the Pointers helped
them to lead at halftime 40-30.
As the second half was underway, Eau Claire pounded
their way back into the game.
With only 10 minutes left in
the game, the score was tied and
the Pointers could not hold their
own. Point converted on only 8
of 27 in the second half for a
27.6 percent from the fteld. Eau
Claire took advantage of this
and shot 11 of 24 for 45.8 percent.
"We coUldn't make the key
shots, but it was a gutsy performance and I'm proud of our
people," said UWSP coach Bob
Parker.
Pointer guard Mike Harrison
led the way for the Pointers. He
tallied a game high 26 points,
sinking four of eight three point
attempts.
Two other Pointers reached
double ftgures. Vince Nichols
grabbed 15 points; 8 of those
were free-throws. Jon Julius
had another strong performance
nailing 11.points and grabbing 7
rebounds.
With only seconds left,
Senior
guard
Chas
Pronschinske fouled out. He
managed 6 assists, but the
Blugoldes shut him down to
only 4 points.
"We only played two-thirds
of the game and against Eau
Claire you have to play a full
game," said Junior forward
Scott Frye.
Frye had a steady performance, controlling 6 rebounds
and '6 total points.
The Pointers will now be on
the road until their fmal home
game against UW-LaCrosse on
February 23.

UW- Eau Claire 78-57

Sports Editor
The UWSP Women's Basketball team took on Eau Claire
in the ftrst of a double header
with the Blugolds on Tuesday.
Unfortunately for the Pointers,
Eau Claire was too much to
handle. UWSP fell to Eau
Claire 78-57.
The Pointers jumped out to
an early ftrsihalflead on a Amy
Felauer three pointer.
The
Pointers held the lead through
almost the entire ftrst half. The
Blugolds took the lead with,just
1:56 remaining, and went into
the lockeroom with a 35-30
h!llftime lead.
The second half was clearly
dominated by the Blugolds, as
they lead the entire half. The
Pointers closest margin was 6
points, and and at times they
trailed by as much as 23 points.
The Blugolds shot 49.2 percent from the fteld while Point
was held to just 36.4 percent.
Eau Claire shot an outstanding
90.9 percent from the free throw
line. The Pointers shot 53.8 percent.
The Pointers were led by
TriciaFekete with 16points and
Julie Schindler, who sat out
most of the ftrst half with foul
trouble with 13 points.
Senior Kate Peterson was out
with an ankle injury, and it is undetermined how long she will be
out.
The Pointers return to action
Friday when they travel to Superior. Satur~y the Pointers
will host UW -Stout at 7:00.

Swimmers at U·W
LaCrosse Invite
I
The UWSP Swimmers
traveled to LaCrosse on Saturday for The LaCrosse Invitational. This meet was not
scored and there were no places
given;
"We arrived and were only
given a half an hour to warm up
which didn't really give us
enough time to loosen up
properly. We would normally
need an hour or so to be totally
warmed up and loose," said assistant coach Pet Zeilobi.
When the meet began the
Pointers were as ready to go as
could be expected.
"Our team stayed focused,
didn't complain about the short
warm up, and really went after
their races," said Zenboi.
The Swimmers of the week
were John Pearson and Jenny
Bradley.
"John's swims were extremely impressive," said Zenhoi. John swam the 500 free in
5:07.99, a personal best, the 200
free in 1:51.57 (a 5.5 second
drop), and the 100 free in 50.67
-seconds (another personal best.)
"Jenny Bradley has improved
a great deal in the last three
weeks. She's swimming her
races smarter and stronger as a
result from continuously working hard in practice," commented Zenboi.
She swam the 200 fly in
2:26.31 andher200freein2:10,
a personal best.
John Pearson, Dan Kelly,
Mani Zarrehparver 1 and Dan
Janiga swam the LaCrosse Invite shaved and tapered to swim
their best races of th<1 year.
Zenboi also recognized Beth
Watson, Nino Pisciotta and Juan
Cabrera as having excellent
swims this weekend.
The swimmers' next outing
will be the Conference meet on February 21-23 in M 1nomonie.

Hoqkey settles for sweep with Irish, look to Mankato ·
By Kris Kasinski
Sports Editor
The UjWSP Hockey team
traveled to South Bend, Indiana
to take on the Fighting Irish of
Notre Dame last weekend and
came awayj with a split of the
. series. On Friday, the Pointers
won by a 5-l margin and on
Saturday they suffered a 7-3
loss.
In Friday's victory, the
Pointers were led by goalie
Kevin Marion, who recorded 27
saves on the night, including
two early breakaways which
helped set the momentum for
the Pointers
"Kevin made a very big difference in tlie game," said Head
Coach Mark Mazzoleni.
The Pointersclearly dominated
the scoreboard, grabbing a 5-0
lead less than two minutes into
the fmal period.
Jean Marsan got the Pointers
started at 10:06 of the frrst
period when he scored off assists from Al Bouschor and
Frank Cirone. Mike Stahley increased the margin to 2-0 just
over five minutes later with his
15th goal of the season on assists from Mike Toth and Jared
Redders.
The score remained 2-0 until
10:37 of the second period wheri
Todd Tretter took a feed from
Paul Caufield and Tim Hale to
increase the · lead to 3-0.
Caufield then continued his
scoring rampage of late with
1:31 remaining in the second
period to give the Pointers a four
goal advantage.
Marc Strapon closed out the
Pointer scoring at 1:31 in the
third period for his fifth goal of
the season.
Notre Dame's only goal
came at 2:22 of the third period
to spoil Marions shut-out bid.
On Saturday, Notre Dame
came out a different team, and
stonned to a 7-3 victory over
UWSP.
Mike Stahley· got things
going for the Pointers, scoring a
power play goal with an assist
from Dan Bailey at the 4:29
mark of the first period.
Notre Dame responded with
two first period goals and two
second period goals to bring the
score to 4-1 after two periods of
play.
Paul Caufield at 3:17 of the
third period scored his 26th goal
of the season to bring the margin to 4-2. A little more than
five minutes later, Bill Horbach
answered for the Pointers to
bring them within one, with
over 10 minutes to play in the
game.
.
Notre Dame, however, put
the game out of reach after scoring twice in 19 seconds and then
adding a third goal on an empty
net to bring the score to 7-3.
Todd Chin suffered the loss,
stopping 21 shots.
Due to playing a non-conference series, the Pointers now
stand in third place, just three
points behind Mankato State.
This weekend the Pointers
travel to Mankato in a close race
for frrst place and will battle for
home ice in the playoffs.
"We have to look at how difficult it's going to be. Mankato
is undefeated at home this year,"
said Coach Mazzoleni.
"We're going to have to be at
ourbest. We'regoingtohaveto ,
be disci~lined and play a total
hockey weekend.
We're
capable of doing it, there's no
doubt about it, but we're going
to have to play very, very well
to do it and I know we can~"
Campus radio UWSP 90FM
will broadcast the games.
Game time both nights is 7:00

Due to illnesses and injuries
Point did not place very well in
