The Spartans improved to 5-4 overall and 3-2 in Big Ten competition with their third straight conference win, finishing with a 197.250.

The performance came with added difficulty.
“We're finally stepping up on all cylinders, and we're still having a little bit of adversity with injuries. We had a couple more injuries the other day, so people were out (today) that are normally in. We had some of our freshmen step up and do very well, so I think they're starting to get it,” head coach Mike Rowe said.
Rowe made clear the lineup was not settled until late.
