Michigan State football bolstered their receiving corps Friday afternoon with the addition of Nebraska transfer Alante Brown, who announced his commitment via social media. Brown played in the majority of games in his three years with the Cornhuskers, setting career highs last season with 16 passes caught for 191 yards. He also made a name for himself as a kick-returner, bringing back 10 kicks for 196 yards during the 2020 COVID season.

MSU baseball’s offense not enough to overcome the Maryland defense in first round of Big Ten Tournament

Despite a fantastic outing from the eighth-seeded Spartan starting pitcher Nick Powers, who had six strikeouts in seven innings, the effort was not enough to overcome the top-seeded Maryland Terrapins. Their defense turned countless double plays to strand 10 Spartan runners in a 3-2 first-round loss. With the loss, MSU will face the winner of fourth-seeded Nebraska and fifth-seeded Rutgers on Thursday morning to attempt to prolong their season. First pitch is set for 11 a.m.

Preview: MSU baseball to face No. 1 seed Maryland in first round of the Big Ten Tournament

While the .500 record to finish the last month of conference play off was not exactly ideal, the seven wins in that span were just enough to allow MSU to grab the eighth and final seed in the Big Ten Tournament, marking a return to the conference's post-season tournament for the first time since 2018. With coming into the tournament as an eight seed, Michigan State will face the top-seeded Maryland Terrapins. The game will be the third of the tournament's opening day with first pitch clocked for 7 p.m. at Charles Schwab Field Omaha in Nebraska. While the winner will advance to play either fourth-seeded Nebraska or fifth-seeded Rutgers on Thursday evening, the losing team will still have something to play for as they will face the loser of that same game on Thursday morning.
