Michigan State finishes Maui Invitational with win over UCLA

It wasn’t always pretty, and there may have been holes exposed, but the Michigan State Spartans finished off the Maui Invitational on a high note.

The Spartans played their third game in three days early Wednesday morning on the islands, but played their best game of the tournament beating UCLA 75-62.

The Spartans and Bruins traded blows through the first 15 minutes of play. However, a strong close to the first half paved the way to a dominant second half. Michigan State continued to build on its lead, eventually being able to clear the bench in the closing minutes.
