This weekend is big for the Michigan basketball team. In fact, it's probably fair to say tonight's game against No. 10 Purdue at Crisler Arena and Sunday's game at No. 16 Iowa constitute the most important two-game stretch for the 19th-ranked Wolverines in a very, very long time.
Judgment Days: Michigan to stand trial in conference
No more tournaments for practice or individual glory. The time has come for the Michigan men's tennis team to come together and finally play matches that count, starting this Sunday at home.
The first home competition of the year for No. 42 Michigan and the first dual match of the season begins with a tough competitor, No. 31 Virginia.
Cavs first up for 'M' tennis
The Michigan men's swimming and diving team will walk into Canham Natatorium Saturday morning to find things just a little different.
The scent of chlorine will still hang in the humid air, but the lane markers will be maize and blue instead of white and the usually bare bleachers will be spangled with fans and parents.
Swimmers look to topple Indiana
Except for the conference and national championships, swim meets are usually pretty repetitive - just warm-ups for the postseason.
But there are cases in which the meets hold a little extra significance. For the Michigan women's swimming and diving team, Saturday's showdown against Notre Dame at Canham Natatorium is a little more important than the average meet.

In preparation for the Big Ten championships on Feb. 28, the Michigan men's track team is in action each of the seven weekends preceding the event.

Tumblers look to drop state opponents
If there is such a thing as the perfect match-up, then the Michigan men's gymnastics team can make a strong case for it when the Wolverines travel to Champaign this Saturday night.
The Wolverines (0-2 Big Ten, 0-2 overall) are tied for seventh in the national rankings with conference rival Illinois (0-1, 0-1) heading into this weekend's dual meet. Both teams have identical high scores on the season (223.80), which also places them in a tie for fifth in the Big Ten.
First victory up for grabs in Champaign
The first leg in the battle for state supremacy begins this Saturday when the Michigan women's track team hosts a six-team field in the annual Michigan Intercollegiate at the Michigan Track Building. Looking to conclude an already stellar opening month, the promising Wolverines will be tested by an in-state field that includes Central Michigan, Detroit-Mercy, Western Michigan, Michigan State and the defending champion, Eastern Michigan.
