inside michigan athletics Michigan's Top Olympic Sports Performers Women's soccer senior Shelina Zadorsky: An All-Big Ten first-team selection in 2012, Zadorsky is playing the best soccer of her career. The London, Ontario, native has already surpassed her previous high in points with six in seven games for the Wolverines this year, ranking third on the team, and is second in assists with four. The standout has also helped U-M hold opponents to a mere 0.56 goals per game. Men's soccer junior Adam Grinwis: Michigan is off to a slow start, going 1-2-2 in its first five games, but it could be worse if not for the junior goalie. Starting all five contests, Grinwis has held opponents to 1.47 goals per game while stopping 71.4 percent of the shots he has faced this season. He has allowed one goal or fewer in three games. Women's basketball alumnus Nya Jordan: A key performer for the Maize and Blue in 2013, averaging 8.4 points and 7.4 rebounds per game, Jordan has signed a professional contract with Visby in Sweden, becoming the fourth Wolverine in five years to sign an overseas deal to continue her basketball career. The 6-0 forward from Detroit played in 108 games from 2010‑13, starting 56. Women's cross country junior Taylor Pogue: The Goodrich, Mich., native was the first runner across the line at the Purdue Invitational (6,000 meters) Sept. 13, clocking a time of 21:18.0 to best teammate Brook Handler (21:19.4). A second-team All-Big Ten performer in 2012, the redshirt junior is a threat to finish No. 1 overall at this year's league meet, scheduled for Nov. 3 in West Lafayette, Ind. Field hockey senior Rachael Mack: The Big Ten Offensive Player of the Week Sept. 17, Mack has already tallied six goals and has 15 points in six contests this season, ranking first in both categories among conference athletes. She needs seven more goals to pass Mary Callam (64, 1976-79) for second place all time at U-M in markers.
