Despite Hoops Wrapping – other Men & Women in Green Play On
The Basketball seasons for the Men and Women have both wrapped – a smidge too soon for most of us who knew that Auburn was beatable and another banner was within reach.
But the beauty of College Sports – beyond that our guys gave it all in their regional final – is that the seasons keep moving. While the Men’s hoops team takes a well-deserved week off let’s take a look at our other brothers and sisters in Green & White that are still in action this week.
First up. The #8 Women’s Gymnastics Squad won their Regional 2nd Round Yesterday – finishing 1st of the 4 teams (#9 Kentucky, #25 Ohio State, Penn State) to move on to tomorrow’s Regional Final! They’ll be up against #1 LSU, #9 Kentucky, and #16 Arkansas. The meet will be held in University Park, PA and broadcast on ESPN+.

The 12-18 Spartans Softball team (2-8 B1G) is playing at Toledo today at 3pm. Though their season has been a bit rough, the team is on a two game win streak and even grabbed one from um wooferines a week ago.
The school year may be winding down, but it’s not over yet – please do tune in and find a way to cheer for Gymnastics and our other Spartans as they head to wrap their own seasons on high notes.
Go Green!
