July 03, 2024
Good morning! Before the barbecues, beach trips and fireworks this weekend, we’ve got plenty of action coming your way in today’s Brew.
We’ll be taking the rest of this week off to enjoy the holiday before ramping back up next week as we look forward to another exciting fall in EL!
What else do we have brewing today?
👟 Back to the Olympics
🏒 People are talking
💚 And much, much more
📈 STOCK UP
🔼 Back To The Games. Former Michigan State triple jumper Tori Franklin is officially in the 2024 Paris Olympics!
Franklin finished third in the event at the U.S. Olympic Trials last week but failed to reach the Olympic standard, which meant she had to wait a bit longer to be named to the team by USA Track & Field.

🔼 Oh, Canada! Shay Colley is an Olympian!
The former Michigan State women’s hooper has been named to the Canadian women’s basketball team, marking her second time making the squad (2020 Tokyo Games).
Colley averaged 12.6 points and 4.8 rebounds per game in three seasons as a Spartan, her final season coming in 2019-20.
Safe to say that @DantonioMark was feeling good after @MSU_Football's first @bigten championship game win. 😊

🔼 It’s Up, It’s Good. We’re getting closer — only 58 more days until Michigan State football is back on the field!
Remember when Jonathan Kim kicked a Kinnick Stadium record 58-yard field goal against Iowa last year?
That kick might have been good from 70 yards!
🔼 Spartan Smarts. For the second year in a row, Michigan State baseball has a College Sports Communicators Academic All-American — Dillon Kark has been named a third team member!
🤔 SPARTAN TRIVIA
Morten Anderson holds the record for longest field goal in Michigan State history. How long was that kick? |
💚 ONE BIG THING
Obviously, we're pretty excited for Artyom Levshunov and his future with the @NHLBlackhawks organization. Here's a recap of what GM Kyle Davidson and the media in Las Vegas had to say about Arty's growth while he was at MSU.
