Michigan hockey team wins ninth NCAA title
Honored No.9 still Wolverines special charm
BOSTON — Red Berenson wanted uniform No. 7 when he played for Michigan but was assigned the No. 9 the school gave its stars as a nod to Gordie Howe, who was playing nearby in Detroit.
"It if comes down to goaltending, and it usually does in close games, I'll take Marty Turco." Berenson said. "We shouldn't have been here. I didn't think this team could do. But they surprised me."
"No. 9 is a special number in Michigan history," the Wolverines hockey coach explained.
The Associated Press
Turco was joined on the all-tournament team by Michigan forwards Kosick and Langfeld and defenseman Bubba Berenzwig. Boston College's Marty Reasoner was the other forward and Mike Mottau of the Eagles filled out the defense.
And now that's even more true.
With its 3-2 overtime victory against Boston College on Saturday night, Michigan won its ninth NCAA hockey title. No other school has won more than six.
experience," said Michigan coach Berenson, who won two NHL championships during a 17-year career.
Michigan won the first NCAA title 50 years ago and six of the first eight, then added to its cache with championships in 1964 and 1996. Last year's team was favored to repeat before losing in the semifinals, in overtime, to Boston University.
The Wolverines graduated five 20-goal scorers from their 1996-97 team, including captain and Hobey Baker Award-winner Brendan Morrison. He also wore the honored No. 9.
This year, the number was draped on the shoulders of Mark Kosick, a freshman from Victoria, British Columbia, who followed two big
years in youth leagues — 132 goats and 174 assists in 77 games — with 58 points in 54 games last season in the British Columbia league.
named most outstanding player.
Kosick did the number proud, scoring 14 goals with 32 assists in his first year. But, Berenson admitted, he wasn't so sure about the freshman before Saturday's game.
Clemensen stopped 32 shots, and Mike Lephart and Kevin Caulfield scored for the Eagles.
"You see him in the locker room, he looks like our stick boy," Berenson said. "He's so young. But when he gets on the ice, he looks like a pro."
Boston College led 1-0 and 2-1, but Kosick scored twice in regulation to tie it — the second with 6:12 left in the third period to send the game into overtime. Forward Josh Langfeld scored 17:51 into overtime, taking a feed from Chris Fox and putting it between the goalie's lews.
Goalie Marty Turco stopped 28 shots to extend his record for NCAA Tournament wins to nine and was
Boston College coach Jerry York grew up in the area and played for Boston College in the 1965 championship game, said his players showed spirit and the desire to win
"Both teams played very well technically. But, more important, they played with a lot of heart," he said.
AUSTIN — Jim Harrick and Steve Fisher may have some consoling words for Tom Penders.
Texas coach ends stormy reign
The Associated Press
Harrick and Fisher, successful college basketball coaches at UCLA and Michigan, respectively, with national championships, were abruptly ousted from their positions.
M a n y thought there was more to the firings than was stated by the
schools, whether the reasons were justifiable or not.
Now Texas coach Tom Penders has joined the list.
Penders, the winning coach in Texas history with a 208-110 record, eight trips to the NCAA Tournament in 10 seasons and three conference championships, is gone.
The official word is that he resigned. He didn't. He was forced out by several factors, namely a deteriorating relationship with Texas athletic director DeLoss Dodds.
As Penders resigned Thursday, things appeared rosy between the two men. They tossed around compliments and patted each other on the back. Penders said it was time for a change in his life. Dodds thanked him and wished him well.
But things already were in a nose-dive last year, when Penders, who had made a habit of letting people know when he was being considered for other coaching jobs, very publicly courted interest from Rutgers after his contract negotiations at Texas bogged down.
Penders, who had the bargaining power of a Sweet 16 appearance in the NCAA Tournament and a heralded freshman class, ended up getting a five-year contract extension, at roughly $550,000 per season.
According to two university sources, speaking on condition of anonymity. Dodds didn't appreciate being leveraged.
Whether Pen-
ders' was right or not, his soap-box mentality didn't fly with the buttoned-down image that Texas tried to convey.
Things hit rock bottom this year when four players from the starting lineup — three freshmen and a sophomore — went to Dodds' home to say they had lost faith in Penders and his program.
Many will blame Luke Axtell for running off Penders. He didn't Texas officials, it appears, were looking for a reason already.
Rather than enter into a contentious legal battle, Penders announced that he would take $643,000 as a settlement, his monthly salary for April and $157,000 from a special UT investment account in his name — roughly $850,000.
That is a lot less than what he could have gotten with a reassignment, considering he had four years remaining on a contract that paid him $550,000 per year.
In the last two years, Dodds has replaced baseball coach Cliff Gustafson, football coach John Mackovic and Penders.
On Friday, Texas issued a statement apologizing to Axell for the release of his grades and reinstating him on the team.
