Spartan Brew 3/22: Men's Hoops Moves On!
The Spartans took care of business against Mississippi State yesterday.
Good morning! We’re trying to figure out our favorite play from Michigan State men’s basketball’s win over Mississippi State…
What else are we serving up in today's Brew?
🏀 Marching on
🏒 Trophy and bragging rights
💚 And much, much more
📈 STOCK UP
🔼 Marching On. It’s that time of year — No. 9 seed Michigan State men’s basketball led from start to finish on Thursday in its NCAA First Round matchup against No. 8 seed Mississippi State, winning 69-51 to earn a Second Round matchup against No. 1 seed North Carolina on Saturday.
Tyson Walker led the Spartans with 19 points, and Jaden Akins (15) and Malik Hall (10) joined him in double figures.
🔼 All The Marbles. There isn’t just a Big Ten Championship trophy on the line tomorrow night, bragging rights are also involved — No. 1 seed Michigan State hockey hosts No. 4 seed Michigan in the Big Ten Championship game tomorrow at 8 p.m. on the Big Ten Network!
🏒 PREVIEW: B1G Title Tilt On Top For Saturday
🔼 Hostess With The Mostest. Undefeated in conference action this season, No. 8 Michigan State gymnastics has a chance to win a Big Ten Championships at home this weekend, hosting the event tomorrow at 5:30 p.m. at Jenisen Field House.
🔼 Time To Dance. No. 9 seed Michigan State women’s basketball kicks off the NCAA Tournament today with a 11:30 a.m. matchup with No. 8 seed North Carolina in Columbia, S.C. on ESPN2.
The Spartans head into the tournament playing well, winning five of their last six games and nine of their last 12.
🔼 Day 1 Done. Michigan State wrestling wrapped up Day One of the NCAA Championships on Thursday with wins from 165-pounder Caleb Fish and 184-pounder Layne Malczewski.
The duo will continue wrestling today with the hopes of obtaining All-American status.
