Brenda Tracy named honorary captain for Michigan State football's spring game

Brenda Tracy, a sexual assault survivor who travels the country to bolster awareness of violence against women, will be honorary captain at Michigan State football's spring game on Saturday.

Michigan State made the announcement Wednesday on social media.

Tracy spoke to the MSU football program last August and shared her story of being gang raped in 1998 by four men, including two Oregon State football players. She also spoke to the MSU players, as she does in all of her speaking engagements, about the need for men to become involved in stopping sexual violence.
