ANN ARBOR, MI (AP) --
      ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) - Michigan's ground game has taken another
hit.
      University of Michigan police are seeking suspects after someone
cut a piece of the block 'M' from the football field at Michigan
Stadium in Ann Arbor.
      U-M Police spokeswoman Diane Brown said a 6-inch by 4-foot piece
of the artificial turf was taken from the stadium between 3:30 p.m.
Friday and 11:30 a.m. Monday. She said the stadium is locked during
weekends.
      Brown estimated damage at about $1,000.
      The iconic stadium has been undergoing a $226 million
renovation. Construction began the day after the Wolverines lost at
Ohio State in November 2007 and is expected to be completed by
June.
