One of the most telling signs of a team is how they respond after facing both success and failure. MSU hockey (10-12-2, 4-4-2-2 Big Ten) has been doing a better job at that as of late, but bouncing back after last weekend’s Hockey City Classic might be a tougher test. The Spartans lost 4-1 to No.
Playing with more urgency, MSU strung together 40 minutes of solid basketball in a 68-44 win over Northwestern. It was a win against a bottom-feeding Northwestern (10-14 overall, 1-9 Big Ten) team but it was also the type of game that MSU (16-8 overall, 7-4 Big Ten) has struggled with this year.
If there was one program in the Big Ten who the Spartans could bully around and pick up an effortless victory on the road, it would be Penn State. The Nittany Lions, plagued with the second-worse scoring offensive in the conference with 63.3 points per game, have sat at the bottom of the standing for longer than they'll admit. Walking in to Happy Valley riding a three-game losing streak, with their most recent loss coming at the hands of Minnesota this past Sunday, an opportunity to pummel last year's regular-season champions fell into the lap of MSU, only for the matchup to go down to the wire. Aerial Powers, the Big Ten's second-highest points scorer, once again dominated on the offensive side of the glass, totaling 26-points en route to a 74-67 win on Wednesday. It appeared that the Spartans were hungry enough to put Penn State out of their misery early on in the first half, increasing their lead to as high as 12 with less than six minutes into the contest. They would later deflate the momentum from the Penn State early on in the second half when a Powers triple from beyond the arc would heighten the MSU lead to 14.

The media room for silent this past Thursday following MSU's crushing defeat to Michigan at the Breslin Center when Suzy Merchant sauntered to the podium. Standing with her head held up high, trying her best to hold back tears, providing no opening statements and going right into the questioning period. A sense of frustration and feeling conquered dwelled upon her that couldn't be overlooked as the veteran head coach went further into detail on what everyone else, fans and media members a like, have been thinking this season. A lack of depth due to an horrendous amount of injuries and a lack of contribution from a majority of the eight players that Merchant is down to is the dark cloud that hangs over the head of the women's basketball team. Even while being equipped with two of the top five players in scoring in Aerial Powers (No.
