Well-rounded, efficient scoring attack leads MSU to 41-point victory

Graduate guard Theryn Hallock sprinted out on the fast break three possessions in a row, and junior guard Kennedy Blair threw the ball ahead to her right in stride every time. All three passes turned into points at the other end, and the third attempt ended in an and-1, leaving Hallock scowling at the defender on her hip. After missing all but seven games of the 2025 season with a foot injury, Hallock craved an 18-point night on near-perfect efficiency from the field. It was the first time she looked like her former self, bringing back her fervor and fierceness. " I had surgery over the summer, so it was like, am I gonna get my groove back? And I think this game really let me branch out and get that ," Hallock said. " I gave that guard a little look because I want to show them that I'm the physical Theryn Hallock back out there ." Hallock's revival waswelcome, and 11 Spartans helped secure the 91-50 win over in-state Oakland. Five players reached double figures, and Michigan State women's basketball's diverse scoring approach proved to be incredibly efficient, scoring on 58.3% of possessions. "From scouting other teams, what's

Michigan, MSU fans donate 237 gallons of urine at 'Piss Off' for fertilizer research

For Michigan State University alumnus Trevor Peterson, the name alone was enough to sell him on the idea. Peterson and his friends waited in line for the "Piss Off," a research competition he learned aboutthrough social media. The name came up in the friends' group chat, and they instantly knew participation was mandatory while tailgating in Ann Arbor. "It's a little bit about the competition, but also at the same time, the competition is the fun part," Peterson said. "I'm also happy to provide research for the soil and fertilizer." However funny and gimmicky the promotion sounds, it worked. The researchers received exactly what they wanted: as much urine as they could get to turn into nutrient-rich fertilizer. The competition, organized by researchers at the University of Michigan and MSU, was designed for a process referred to as pee-cycling. Researchers at both universities are interested in extracting nutrients from human urine to eventually use it as a natural, nutrient-rich agricultural fertilizer. The fertilizer will be used at U-M's Matthaei Botanical Gardens and Nichols Arboretum and MSU's W.K. Kellogg Biological Station. In total, the "Piss Off" movement accumulated more than 237 gallons of urine. U-M fans won the competition by a

Horsepeople of the Year: Paula Hitzler

I strongly believe that each incredible horseperson had a strong educator to guide them into the path of the equestrian world. Paula Hitlzer is one of those individuals. For over 36 years, Paula shaped, mentored, coached, educated and shared her passion for horses at Michigan State University (MSU) in the Horse Teaching and Research Center and animal science department. This past May, she retired from her position—but not without changing the lives of over 1,500 students, hundreds of equines, faculty, parents and equine professionals.

Restaurant closes inside Lansing Shuffle 3 years after opening

LANSING — One of the first restaurants to open inside Lansing Shuffle has closed its location at the food hall and social club. Browndog at The Shuffle, an offshoot of the Michigan-based Browndog Creamery and Browndog restaurants, closed sometime in the last month. It's been a part of the venue ever since it opened in early 2023. It's unclear when the restaurant stopped operating at Lansing Shuffle, located at the former Lansing City Market at 325 Riverfront Drive, although it appears to have shuttered within the last month. The restaurant served burgers, fries, "boozy" shakes and ice cream. Messages left with the restaurant and with Jonathan Hartzell, a founding partner at Detroit Rising, the company that operates the Shuffle, weren't returned this week. An announcement about the closure was posted to Lansing Shuffle's Facebook page on Nov. 11. "After three amazing years, we’re saying goodbye to Browndog at the Shuffle," according to the post. "Thank you to the BrownDog team for three years of filling our food hall with delicious burgers, ice cream, and so many good eats. We’re grateful for the time, memories, and flavor you brought to our community!" Lansing Shuffle houses several other restaurants, including Takitos AF,

Lansing-area data center plan dead two weeks after it was announced

LANSING — Less than two weeks after unveiling a data center community engagement proces s officials hoped would flip the script on the hotly contested developments, the project is dead. The announcement of a possible data center in Delhi Township and Holt, on the south side of Lansing, by a local economic development agency was met with immediate opposition. The township ended its partnership with the economic development group the next day and had unanimously approved a resolution opposing the data center within three days of the announcement. On Monday, Nov. 9, the Lansing Economic Area Partnership (LEAP) said the deal is no more. Lighthouse Sustainability, the pre-development firm that intended to work with the community to address concerns about the $10 billion data center, withdrew its interest in the site. LEAP will now look to other "non-data center opportunities" for the site, said Bob Trezise, president and CEO of LEAP. “While we are disappointed that a public dialogue was not truly allowed to begin, we thank the Delhi Township community and Lighthouse Sustainability for their participation and feedback, though brief,” Trezise said in a statement. The project in Delhi Township was announced Oct. 27, six months into a one-year

Locally owned Mexican restaurant opening new downtown Lansing location

LANSING — A Mexican restaurant that got its start in Old Town more than two decades ago plans to open a second location in the city's downtown by the end of the year. Yendry Garcia, co-owner of Pablo's Mexican Restaurant at 2010 E. Michigan Ave., will open a new location at 123 S. Washington Square. The 1,400-square-foot leased space was previously occupied by La Cocina Cubana, a Cuban restaurant that closed at the property in October. News about the new location comes nearly four years since the East Michigan Avenue location opened its doors and over 20 years after Pablo's opened in Old Town. The Old Town location underwent an ownership and name change, to Catalina’s Mexican Restaurant, in June 2025. Garcia said he and his wife Mariana hope to open the downtown location sometime in December. He hopes the new restaurant meets a need there. "We thought downtown needed more business," Garcia said. "We are so happy to bring another Pablo's to downtown." The new restaurant will serve the same menu offered at the Pablo's location off East Michigan Avenue. The restaurant will also serve breakfast. The location won't serve beer, wine or liquor, but Garcia said it may
