🔼 Let The Good Times Roll. Make that four sweeps in a row for Michigan State volleyball!
The Spartans hosted the Kathy DeBoer Invitational over the weekend, and picked up 3-0 wins over Belmont, Syracuse and Delaware State.
🔼 Stacking The Medal Stand. Michigan State men’s cross country dominated the Jeff Drenth Memorial Friday, with Spartans finishing 1-2-3-4 in the race.
Jack Pennewell won the 5K race in 15:06.7, with Tyler Pritchett, Noah Morrow and Nathan Larson right behind him, respectively.
The Michigan State women finished third, and were led by Cookie Baugh, who finished ninth overall with a time of 18:21.3.
🔼 Unbeaten Weekend. Michigan State men’s soccer went 1-0-1 in a pair of road contests over the holiday weekend.
The team was in West Point, N.Y. on Friday evening for a contest against Army, and the Spartans took down the Black Knights 2-1. Army scored first in the eighth minute, but goals from Josh Mason (23’) and Johnathan Stout (66’) gave MSU the win.
The Spartans once again gave up an early goal in Monday’s matchup against Villanova in the fourth minute, but Will Eby scored an equalizer in the 38th minute to salvage a 1-1 draw.
🔼 Close The Whole Way. A fourth quarter goal from Kent State was the difference in Michigan State field hockey’s 1-0 loss to the Flashes over the weekend.
The Spartans managed four shots on goal in the contest, but couldn’t find the back of the net. MSU is back in action on Friday versus Saint Joseph’s.
🔼 Fought The Irish. Michigan State women’s soccer dropped a close 2-1 match with No. 15 Notre Dame over the weekend.
Jordyn Wickes scored the lone goal for the Spartans, a header on a corner kick from Justina Gaynor.
Michigan State is now 4-2-0, with a matchup on the road against NC State next up on Thursday.
