🤔 SPARTAN TRIVIA

💚 ONE BIG THING

🔼 Supporting Heroes. “This is one of those tools that will help these guys say, ‘I’m a better human because I was at Michigan State.’”

Spartan Men’s Golf head coach Casey Lubahn started the Folds of Honor Collegiate in 2021, and it has quickly become one of the biggest events in college golf. It also serves a dual purpose—helping families of fallen or disabled military and first responders.
