U-M John McDonald 25 Flashing a powerful attack, the Wolverines netted four goals in the third period to cut down a strong Dartmouth sextet, 8-4, and wrap up the first NCAA championship. 1947-48 Team Roster Wally Gacek was again the hero of the evening as he worked the 'hat trick' and added three assists for a six- total. It was Gacek who set up what proved to be the winner, feeding a pass to Wally No Name Pos Grant, who fired a 15-footer into Dartmouth's goal at 1:30 of the third. Gordie McMillan added a goal 1 John Griffin D at 6:15. Gacek scored his third goal of the game five seconds later, netting a 35-footer on passes from 2 Dick Starrak D Grant and Ted Greer. 3 Connie Hill D Greer wound up the evening's scoring as well as his Michigan career by sinking a rebound at 15:14 4 Leonard Brumm F with the assist going to Gacek. 5 Wally Gacek F Michigan played another superb game. Jack McDonald stood out in goal, especially in the third 6 Owen McArdle F period, when he held Dartmouth scoreless. 7 Gordon McMillan F The Wolverines jumped into an early lead, when Gacek grabbed Grant's pass and fired a 10-footer 8 Bill Jacobson F past Dartmouth's goalie, Dick Desmond, after only 50 seconds of the first period had elapsed. 9 Al Renfrew F Dartmouth was able to tie it up shortly afterward, as Bill Riley slammed a third rebound into the 10 Ted Greer F Wolverine net at 4:25. Gacek and Grant again teamed up at 10:55 of the initial stanza to give Michigan 11 Herb Upton D/F a one-goal lead. Grant fed the pass to Gacek who scored. The goal was the result of some very fancy 12 Paul Milanowski G passing that had Dartmouth completely confused. 13 Sam Stedman F With the Wolverines a man short after Dick Starrak had been caught tripping, Dartmouth evened 14 Ross Smith D/F the count at two on a goal by defenseman Crawford "Whitey" Campbell. The Big Green then moved out in front for the first time in the evening, when Walt Crowley fired the puck past goalie McDonald 15 Al Nadeau F at 6:55 on a 10-foot . Ten seconds later, the Big Green moved two-up when Arnie Oss followed 16 Paul Fontana F Jim Malone's shot up and netted the rebound. 17 John McDonald G Grant and Gacek halted the trend at 15:20 to move Michigan to within a goal. McMillan tied it up 17 Wally Grant F again at the 16:40 mark of the middle stanza. A timer's whistle had halted the play and for a while it 18 Bob Marshall D looked like the goal would not count.

The 12 Joe Marmo F Wolverines threw back the Brown attackers by the simple process of poking the puck off their sticks 14 Gordon Naylor F before they ever could get over the Michigan blue line. 15 Al Bassey F But in addition to the great work of the defense, which had been a sore spot in previous hockey 18 Alex MacLellan D games throughout the season, the Maize and Blue's highly-touted offense came through in fine fashion again. Head Coach: Vic Heyliger Altogether, nine players shared scoring honors for Michigan with Neil Celley and John McKennell each scoring two goals. The Wolverines front line of Celley, Gil Burford and John Matchefts displayed far too much speed for the Brown defensemen. The victory also broke a two-year old St. Patrick's Day "jinx" for the Wolverines. In the last two NCAA tourneys prior to this one, Michigan was defeated on St. Patrick's Day. But such was not the case last night. By virtue of the victory, Michigan became the first team ever to win the NCAA Tournament twice since its inception in 1948. Michigan won the title in 1948, finished third in 1949 and 1950 and came back to win the title again last night. Michigan set another record in its 7-1 win over Brown. The Bruins, in being held to one goal, scored less goals in the game than any team in the four-year history of the tournament. The previous low had been set by U-M in its 4-2 loss to Dartmouth in 1949. Despite the one-sided loss, Brown goalie Don Whiston played one of the greatest games ever seen in the NCAA tournament or in any collegiate hockey game for that matter. Whitson was pep- pered with Michigan shots all night. Time and time again he dove to the ice to stop a loose puck, and on other occasions he made magnificent saves to squelch almost sure goals. For his outstanding performance, Whiston was awarded the Most Valuable Player award for the tournament.

After Graham Cragg made it 4-1 halfway through the second stanza the issue was never 10 John McKennell F in doubt. The 2,500 rabid fans who came to see Michigan licked were disappointed by a Michigan 11 Graham Cragg D team that received praise from Heyliger. 12 Doug Philpott F Michigan rolled out of its 3-0 first period margin as George Chin opened up matters at 11:35 when 14 Gordon Naylor F he beat Colorado goalie Ken Kinsley from close in. Five minutes later Michigan scored twice within 15 Ron Martinson F one minute in what proved to be the clinching flurry. Earl Keyes scored the second goal on assists from defensemen Jim Haas and Reggie Shave. Keyes tipped in a blue line shot off Haas' stick. 17 Reg Shave D The Tigers were shorthanded at the time and the Michigan power play paid off. 18 Alex MacLellan D With Michigan's Doug Mullen off for holding, Colorado put on the pressure but its own power play 19 Doug Mullen F backfired. Doug Philpott picked up a loose puck at center ice and sent a screaming 35-foot shot into - Bob Lotzer F the upper corner of the net for the 3-0 lead. - Telly Mascarin F The teams traded goals in the second period. Cam Berry beat Michigan goalie Willard Ikola with a neat shot into the corner of the net to move up to a 3-1 deficit. Head Coach: Vic Heyliger Cragg got that one back for Michigan to give them the 4-1 lead that they maintained intact for the remainder of the contest. Cragg's goal, his second of the tourney and only the third of the season, came on a long screen shot. Chin was the highest scorer of the tournament with four points and he took a place on the all- tournament team named by the press. Kinsley, who made 46 saves last night and 42 against Yale was the Most Valuable Player and first team . The other first team forwards were Michigan's John McKennell and Doug Philpott. The defensemen were Jim Haas of the Wolverines and Lou Maccini of Colorado.

No Name Pos Coming from behind in the second period, Coach Vic Heyliger's skaters rose to the heights to defeat 1 Willard Ikola G one of the greatest Gopher teams of all time and earn the plaudits of 2,700 fans who jammed into the 1 Bill Lucier G Broadmoor Ice Palace here to witness the sixth annual NCAA tournament finals. 2 Jim Haas D Coach Heyliger's charges, who little more than two weeks ago were not even conceded a good chance 4 John Matchefts F to gain a tournament berth, completely outclassed Minnesota to return the national title to Ann Arbor for 5 Burt Dunn D the fourth time in the past six years. 6 George Chin F Michigan took a brief one-goal lead in the first period on a neat 15-foot angle shot by Jim Haas, but saw 7 Earl Keyes F the lead disappear as Minnesota roared back to take a 2-1 margin as the teams left the ice following the 8 Pat Cooney F initial 20 minutes of play. Regaining their poise, Michigan rattled two goals past Minnesota's celebrated goaltender, Jim Mattson, in the second period and scored four more in the third period to win the title. 10 John McKennell F Here's how it all happened. 12 Doug Philpott F Following Haas' goal, which came at 5:48 of the first period, the Gophers' capable wingman, Dick 14 Telly Mascarin F Meredith, converted past goalie Willard Ikola at 8:39 to tie up the game at 1-1. Dick Dougherty then put 15 Ron Martinson F Minnesota ahead at 11:34 on a five-footer. Doug Philpott cashed in Reg Shave's rebound at 6:15 in the sec- 16 Louis Paolatto D ond period and Michigan was off to a string of five straight goals which salted away the championship. 17 Reg Shave D Doug Mullen golfed in a high shot at 11:08 on assists by Pat Cooney and George Chin, and U-M took a 18 Alex MacLellan D lead it never relinquished. Four times during the second period Michigan was shorthanded, but a stalwart 19 Doug Mullen F defense led by the alert and agile Ikola warded off Gopher chances. When Gopher captain Tom Wegleitner was waived off for interference at 3:22 of the final frame, U-M Head Coach: Vic Heyliger went to work in earnest. Johnny Matchefts, voted the tournament's MVP, picked up the puck behind the Minnesota cage and rammed it past Mattson to give U-M a 4-2 lead. Haas increased it to 5-2 with his second tally at 7:17, and with the Gophers shorthanded again, Philpott converted a beautiful pass from Haas at 9:14. Minnesota then finally connected on its final effort at 10:42 when Ken Yackel beat Ikola from close in. With seven minutes remaining, Coach removed Mattson from the ice in a futile, desperate effort to stave off what by then was inevitable defeat. Mattson returned in about 45 seconds, but twice more was taken off in favor of a sixth forward. The strategy back- fired at 19:49, however, when Matchefts blasted in an empty netter for his second goal.

COLORADO SPRINGS - Michigan's cinderella hockey team, skating as if its collective life depend- ed on winning, throttled Colorado College 5-3 here Saturday night in the finals of the NCAA national 1954-55 Team Roster tournament playoff. A capacity-plus crowd of nearly 3,000 fans, roaring encouragement every minute to the host No Name Pos team, jammed every nook and cranny of the picturesque Broadmoor Ice Palace only to watch the 1 Lorne Howes G Wolverines march to their fifth title in the last eight years. 2 Mike Buchanan D Coach Vic Heyliger's players performed like the true champions they are against the tough and 3 Bob Schiller D powerful Coloradoans. There was nothing tainted or fluky about the triumph. It was achieved by 4 Bernie Hanna D inspired, alert hockey which combined winning ingredients of an air-tight defense and a relentless, 5 Bob Pitts D pressing attack in which five players scored goals. 6 Dick Dunnigan F Goalie Lorne Howes of Michigan staged a brilliant, almost superhuman exhibition of netminding 7 Bill MacFarland F which brought forth superlatives from even the most rabid Colorado partisans. Howes, a 21-year- 8 Jerry Karpinka F old, 160-pound youngster, playing in his first NCAA Tourney, was credited with 47 saves - more than 9 Jay Gould F double that of Bengal goalie Jeff Simus, who had 21, the same number of stops made by Howes in 10 Yves Hebert F the final frame alone. Coach Cheddy Thompson's Tigers, fired up just as high as the Wolverines, were thirsty for victory 11 Neil Buchanan F over the Wolverines. But when it came to scoring the all-important goal which would have tied up 12 Tom Rendall F the game Saturday, they just didn't have it. 15 Baden Cosby F The real victory script was written in the final, crazy 20 minutes of play. Heyliger's men had forged 16 Bill Lucier G a narrow 2-1 lead in the first two frames and came out battling furiously to maintain the advantage. Jay Gould's score at 6:18 of the last period stretched the lead, but the Tigers came back moments Head Coach: Vic Heyliger later to make it 3-2. Once more Michigan scored as Jerry Karpinka beat Simus for a seemingly safe 4-2 lead. The Tigers were far from through as they swarmed around the Michigan net like angry bees before wing Clare Smith scored at 17:23 to put the Western Intercollegiate Hockey League champs within one goal of a tie. At 18:32, Thompson beckoned Simus from the Tiger cage and installed another forward. Fifty-nine seconds later, Michigan defenseman Mike Buchanan was penalized for an illegal center ice body check. The fans screamed and shrieked for Colorado to notch the tying marker. With 10 seconds to go the Tigers got a faceoff in the circle to Howes' left. Four seconds later another faceoff developed, but this time captain Bill MacFarland got control of the puck and sent it flying down the ice and into the empty net with three seconds left to play.

This unprecedented honor was earned in the fashion of a 7-5 triumph over Michigan Tech in the finals of the ninth annual NCAA tournament here Saturday night in the Broadmoor Ice Palace. 1955-56 Team Roster With an overflow throng of over 2,000 fans wildly cheering their sentimental favorite the Huskies jammed the arena on the grounds of the Broadmoor Hotel. The Michigan Tech brass band and 200 No Name Pos student followers proved no substitute for the hockey know-how which brought the title to the 1 Lorne Howes G Wolverines. 2 Mike Buchanan D Coach Vic Heyliger's Maize and Blue charges left the ice after the first period with a 4-3 lead only 3 Bob Schiller D to see the Huskies pull ahead 5-4 in the early stages of the second period.

Tom Kennedy got the first one at 4:47 after intercepting an errant Michigan 17 Ed Switzer F pass to skate in unmolested on Howes. The second came with the Wolverines two men short from a corner faceoff. Aubry skated behind the cage and hooked the puck into the open corner. The marker Head Coach: Vic Heyliger came at 7:25. Then the revitalized Wolverines took charge with a three-goal outburst from which Michigan Tech never recovered. Switzer tipped in a 40-footer off the stick of Bernie Hanna at 7:58 to tie the score. An elbowing penalty to Ron Stenlund, hero of Tech's 10-4 Thursday night decision over Boston College led to the winning goal. The infraction came at 12:43 and Switzer's third tally came at 14:28 on a 20-foot blast from a wide angle. McDonald scored his second goal of the night just 21 seconds later beating his opponent to the center ice draw. He skated in and shot the puck from 10 feet out, then knocked home his own rebound.

The Wolverines defeated Colorado College, 3-2, before 12,957 fans at Riverfront Coliseum on No Name Pos Saturday in another overtime heart-thumper.

THE HOBEY BAKER MEMORIAL AWARD

The Hobey Baker Story Kevin Porter - 2008 The Hobey Baker Memorial Award is pre- sented to the outstanding college hockey player in the United States by the Decathlon Athletic Club of Bloomington, Minn. The idea for the Hobey Baker Award was conceived by then Decathlon Athletic Club chief executive officer Chuck Bard, who modeled the award after college football’s Heisman Trophy. Club directors gave the final go-ahead on Jan. 4, 1980. Bard, with assistance from Walter Bush, then president of the Minnesota North Stars, and Roger Godin of the U.S. , narrowed down a list of candidates after whom to name the award. The final list included hockey immortals Moose Goheen, , John Mariucci and Hobey Baker. The name and exploits of Baker intrigued Bard, who contacted Princeton for more information. Bard also contacted the present day Hobey Baker, a nephew of the award’s namesake who resided in New York, and granted permission to use the name. Baker was the captain of Princeton’s hockey and football teams from 1910-14. He was a charter member of the U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame and was one of a handful of Americans inducted into Canada’s Hockey Hall of Fame.

En route to the 1995-96 NCAA title, Michigan was assisted by perhaps the greatest goal ever scored in an organized hockey game - Mike Legg’s lacrosse-style wraparound on Mar. 24 against Minnesota in the West Regional. Michigan had been outplayed by Minnesota, but Legg’s goal tied the game 7:06 into the second period and provided his team with a new burst of energy. Six days later, Michigan won the national title and Legg, with his game-tying goal in the third period against Colorado College, would enhance his legendary status. The goal received unheard of attention around the sporting world. Legg’s goal won an ESPY for “Outrageous Play of the Year,” and he traveled to New York on Feb. 10, 1997, for the black-tie award ceremonies which was televised nationally on ESPN. The goal had earlier won the 1996 “Play of the Year” by TSN and the 1996 “Goal of The Year” by Inside Hockey, a Swedish Hockey Magazine. Legg traveled to Stockholm and received his award at a banquet Aug. 8, 1996. Media coverage was unprecedented. The night of the goal, CNN’s Headline News showed it regularly on its sports updates every half hour, ESPN’s National Hockey Night chose Legg’s goal as the MCI Play of the Night and CNN Sports Tonight chose it as the Play of the Day. The goal was part of The Albert Achievement Awards on the Late Show With David Letterman and was also shown on Hockey Night in Canada on CBC. The sequence was cap- tured in feature stories by USA Today, The Detroit News, The Boston Globe, The Minneapolis Star Tribune, The St. Paul Pioneer Press, The Wolverine, The Mike Legg cradles the puck onto his stick blade, skates out in front, flips in a Ann Arbor News, The Michigan Daily, The Hockey News, U.S. College Hockey shot and sends the hockey world into a frenzy.
