The regular season is over for the Michigan State Women’s Basketball Team. In her second year as head coach of the Spartans, Robyn Fralick led her team to a 21-8 overall record, and an 11-7 mark in Big Ten play. While that record put MSU in a three-way tie for fifth place, they end up as the sixth seed in this tournament due to tiebreakers. As a result, the Lady Spartans receive a single bye and will begin play Friday in round 2.
This year’s Big Ten Tournament is being played at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. The top four teams and the recipients of the double-byes are, in order, USC, UCLA, Ohio State, and Maryland.
