📈 STOCK UP

🔼 High-Octane. Michigan State women’s basketball lit up the scoreboard once again on Wednesday night, beating Northwestern 91-72 to earn its 13th win of the season.

A whopping six Spartans were in double figures — Julia Ayrault (16), Theryn Hallock (15), Tory Ozment (14), Moira Joiner (14), Abbey Kimball (12) and DeeDee Hagemann (10).

🔼 Stack Wins. Michigan State men’s hoops welcomes Minnesota to the Breslin Center tonight, with hopes of starting a win streak after taking down Rutgers on Sunday.

Minnesota is 12-5 overall on the season, but so far hasn’t been the same team on the road as it is at home — the Gophers are 11-2 at Williams Arena but just 1-2 away from it.

Tonight’s game is part of Michigan State’s 2 for $24 ticket offer, which also includes the Spartans’ Feb. 20 matchup against Iowa.

🔼 Spartan Homecoming. Michigan State head football coach Jonathan Smith has rounded out his coaching staff with the hiring of former Spartan Demetrice Martin as the program’s cornerbacks coach!

🔼 Uncharted Territory. Michigan State men’s tennis is set to begin its season this weekend with some never-before-seen preseason hype — the Spartans are ranked No. 22 in the ITA preseason rankings!
