The Michigan State University soccer team will enter the Big Ten Tournament as the No. 6 seed when play begins Thursday afternoon. The Spartans will be facing Northwestern in their first game at 10 a.m. ET.The Spartans finished the regular season with a record of 10-6-2 (2-4 Big Ten). They tied with Michigan for last in the conference. But the standings are deceiving; MSU's overall win percentage is fourth-best out of the seven-team league.
Last year, MSU was one of the top 10 teams in the nation after winning both the Big Ten regular season and tournament titles. This year the squad has struggled with injuries and a case of bad luck. The heartbreaking 1-0 loss to Akron, the No. 1 team in the nation, is a constant reminder of this.
Best of luck boys as you fight for a Big Ten title and an NCAA Tournament invitation!
