Prior to my first welcome week at MSU, I had gone my entire life without being exposed to the alternative lifestyles offered by Greek life. Post-high school graduation, the only Greek letters I knew were the ones I remembered from my 12th grade calculus class. I knew nothing of Vera Bradley and her floral prints, and the only time I used the word “rush” was to describe an upcoming deadline.

An impressive all-around outing from sophomore guard Kiana Johnson powered MSU to a 56-46 win at Indiana Sunday afternoon.

There are a few times each game where Adreian Payne shows off how good he can be. Although sometimes lost in moments of frustration or general fatigue, there are the moments when Payne throws down a dunk or dishes a nifty pass or, more recently, fires a shot from beyond the 3-point line that reminds head coach Tom Izzo of the player he once recruited.
The Spartans might not know who their leading scorer will be each night. They might not know where they’ll finish in the crowded Big Ten. They might even continue to be the “strangest” 16-3 team Tom Izzo has ever coached. But one thing they know for sure — when the game is on the line, Keith Appling delivers. The junior guard came through in winning time again Saturday night, scoring MSU’s final six points to carry the No.
Keith Appling stood at the free throw line, stared straight ahead and exhaled deeply. After being hounded all night by Ohio State’s Aaron Craft, MSU’s junior guard had the chance to get the last laugh. Appling delivered. Calmly sinking both free throws, Appling sealed a big victory for the No.
Sparks of MSU offense bookended the first half, as the Spartans used back-to-back fast break baskets to take a 30-26 lead over No.

Friday night was the third time in just more than a month MSU and Ferris State hockey have taken the ice against each other, and the Bulldogs gave the Spartans exactly what they were expecting. This game, for the second time a row, Ferris State (11-9-3 overall, 9-7-1-0 CCHA) was victorious over MSU (6-14-3 overall, 5-11-1-0 CCHA), coming out on top with a score of 2-1. “They’ve played pretty consistently all three games they’ve played us,” captain and junior forward Greg Wolfe said.
In the third meeting between the two this season, Ferris State beat MSU hockey, 2-1. Ferris State’s Cory Kane got the game rolling with a shot that made its way through MSU freshman goaltender Jake Hildebrand’s five-hole about midway through the first period.
