Five Spartans scored in double figures — Grace VanSlooten (20), Nyla Hampton (16), Julia Ayrault (14), Theryn Hallock (13) and Emma Shumate (12).
🔼 Finished Strong. No. 2 Michigan State hockey bounced back from a series-opening loss to No. 11 Ohio State and earned a win on Saturday to travel home with a split against the Buckeyes.
After a scoreless opening frame, MSU scored three times in the second period, and got an empty netter in the waning moments for a 4-1 final.
🔼 Streak Snapped. No. 7 Michigan State men’s basketball had its 13-game win streak snapped on Saturday, falling 70-64 to USC in Los Angeles.
Jeremy Fears scored 12 points and dished out six assists to lead the Spartans, followed by Jaden Akins with 11 points.
🔼 Back-And-Forth. No. 5 Michigan State gymnastics dropped its first Big Ten competition of the season over the weekend out on the West Coast, losing to No. 6 UCLA by a razor-thin margin of 197.300-197.200.
The Spartans broke 197.000 for the second time this season and earned their second-highest score of the season with their 197.200.
🔼 Senior Celebration. Michigan State wrestling got back in the win column on Sunday, taking down Clarion, 30-8, on Senior Day inside Jenison Field House.
The Spartans celebrated the careers of Tristan Lujan, Andy Hampton, Jay Nivison, Marty Larkin and Nick West, with all three seniors in Sunday's lineup (Lujan, Nivison, Larkin) winning their respective bouts.
