EAST LANSING, MI — It was ugly, but nut nonetheless a win for the Michigan State Spartans as they claimed a 53-49 Senior Night victory over Northwestern on Wednesday night.
The Spartans struggled to score in the first half, but played good defense and scored just enough in the second half to trump the Cats at Breslin Center.
The win preceded an emotional Senior Night ceremony in which the team honored five seniors — AJ Hoggard, Tyson Walker, Mady Sissoko, Davis Smith and Steven Izzo. Each got to kiss the court and address the crowd as a final goodbye to Breslin Center.
MSU (18-12, 10-9 Big Ten) will close out the regular season Sunday at Indiana at 4:00 p.m. The Big Ten Men’s Tournament takes place next week in Minneapolis.
