(ANN ARBOR) – Zavier Simpson is Michigan's gritty point guard and Jon Teske the 7 foot 1 center. Together, they anchor the Wolverines' stellar defense. When they suddenly start making 3-pointers as well, there's not much an opponent can do. Simpson scored a career-high 24 points and Teske tied a career high with 17, leading No. 2 Michigan to an 80-60 victory over Northwestern on Sunday night. With the win, the Wolverines are off to their best start in program history. Michigan (17-0, 6-0 Big Ten) started 16-0 on two previous occasions, including once before under coach John Beilein, in 2012-13. Northwestern (10-7, 1-5) was without leading scorer Vic Law, who was out with a lower body injury. Dererk Pardon scored 20 points for Northwestern in the loss. The Wolverines have matched the longest winning streak in school history. They won 17 in a row in 1985 before losing in the NCAA Tournament.
