Their work here is done. The MSU men’s basketball team put a final — though potentially discouraging — stamp on a crucial homestand Wednesday night by beating Iowa 70-63 to improve its record to 6-0 in the Big Ten and hold its lead in the conference standings.
Don’t call them the fourth line. For now, the forward combination of sophomores Brett Perlini and Trevor Nill, along with freshman Dean Chelios, prefer to be called the “maroon line,” representing the color of the jerseys they wear in practice.
Heading into Big Ten play, the MSU wrestling team hopes more experience will equate to more success.
MSU women’s basketball head coach Suzy Merchant said her team is looking for its identity and three straight offensively-challenged losses.
The No. 6 MSU men’s basketball team and Iowa might have met just a week and a half ago, but a lot has changed since then, head coach Tom Izzo said.
At the midway point of both games against Notre Dame this past weekend, it seemed the No. 10 MSU hockey team had each game locked up.
This is why you don’t abandon ship when the MSU men’s basketball team loses to unranked Florida in November.
Tom Izzo won’t call Raymar Morgan the next Travis Walton, but the MSU men’s basketball head coach says it should be noted that the senior forward’s defense this season has improved. Given the opportunity for consistent marking in a game, Morgan has the ability to shut down an opponent.
Following Thursday’s startling loss to Wisconsin, the MSU women’s basketball team needed a big effort Sunday against Penn State. But for the second straight game, the Spartans went cold down the stretch, as MSU did not make a field goal in the final eight minutes in a 68-60 loss to the Lady Lions at Bryce Jordan Center.
While MSU still is winless in eight straight games against Notre Dame, the Spartans skated to a 4-4 tie before taking shootout Saturday.
The Spartans beat Stanford and Northern Illinois and tied Rutgers to finish 2-0-1 at first Spartan Duals event.
To be the best, you’ve got to beat the best. The MSU men’s basketball team made a strong case as the Big Ten’s top dog Saturday, knocking off the last team standing in its way of perching atop of the Big Ten standings outright, hammering Illinois 73-63 on Saturday afternoon in front of an inspired capacity crowd at Breslin Center.
It’s that time again – the State News sports desk predicts the outcomes of this weekend’s games. Think of them like manly horoscopes.
And then there were two. And soon there will be one. The remaining duo of undefeated teams in the Big Ten will meet in a pivotal January matchup Saturday when the Illinois men’s basketball team travels to Breslin Center to meet No. 7 MSU (3:30 p.m., CBS).
He hadn’t touched a basketball since August, but that didn’t stop Dion Sims from believing he could step on a court and compete with one of the top teams in the nation.
Stanford, Rutgers and Northern Illinois will travel a combined 3,000 miles to East Lansing for Saturday’s inaugural Spartan Duals event as they prepare for a rare nonconference matchup against MSU.
For the MSU hockey team, the rivalry with Notre Dame might never be as intense as when the Spartans step on the ice to face Michigan. But it’s getting there.
It’s the morning of Dec. 6. The MSU women’s basketball team is a few days removed from one of its biggest wins ever at Breslin Center, a 72-66 victory against then-No. 4 North Carolina. The challenge that day: conference foe Indiana in the Big Ten opener.
David Cheza, a 149-pound sophomore on the MSU wrestling team, has posted a 5-5 record and currently is ranked No. 14 nationally in the 149-pound weight class.
