🎙 PRESS CONFERENCE: Mel Tucker — Richmond Week

The lone goal for the Spartans came from Sean Kerrigan on a penalty kick in the 84th minute.

🔼 Road Dub. An 88th minute goal from Emerson Sargeant gave Michigan State women’s soccer a 2-1 lead, which it would hold onto for an impressive road victory against NC State.

Bella Najera got the scoring started for the Spartans in the 11th minute, and was assisted by Mackenzie Anthony and Gabby Mueller on the play.

Michigan State moved to 5-2 with the win, and will host Dayton on Sunday at DeMartin Stadium.

🔼 The ACC Comes North. Michigan State volleyball welcomes in both Duke (4-2) and North Carolina (4-1) this weekend for an unofficial B1G/ACC Challenge!

The Spartans have several promotions planned for the weekend, including a Student Block Party and a Grow Your Game match to empower youth players.

The Hawks are 3-1, with a win over No. 15 Connecticut to start the season and a 6-1 win over Yale this Sunday serving as their momentum for tonight.
