Four Circles Brewery will reopen under new ownership in Brighton

Four Circles Brewery is reopening under new ownership in Brighton. Keith and Lisa Bergevin have purchased the microbrewery at 709 W. Grand River Ave. with the help of their daughter and son-in-law Molly and Kaleb Carlson. A grand reopening celebration with a limited special food menu and live music was scheduled for 12 p.m. Nov. 14. Nick and Colleen Miller announced the business was closing via social media in June. The couple said they were moving to pursue full-time job opportunities and focus on spending more time with their daughters in Florida. The microbrewery opened in 2023 and has since made a name for itself in Brighton. It was voted Livingston County's Best Brewery in a 2025 poll by The Livingston Daily. The Bergevins, of Whitmore Lake, often attended trivia nights at Four Circles Brewery. When they saw a sign in the window saying the business was set to close, they decided it was an opportunity. After running another business for 25 years, Keith was ready to venture into something new. He's behind a business known as RCScrewZ, which carries screw sets for RC cars, trucks, planes and helicopters. The couple took over ownership at the microbrewery Sept. 1. Since

Popular Brits Joshua Cauldwell-Clarke and Jason Riley (Josh & Jase) were in attendance for Saturday night's game, as was Tom Hur (Korea Pistons Fan). Actor Hugh Jackman, Marvel's Wolverine, also was making the rounds, speaking to the football team Friday, Nov. 6, before serving as Michigan's honorary captain for the game . Detroit News photographer Katy Kildee spotted Jackman arriving at the stadium Saturday, when he was greeted by a throng of fans, including Michigan women's head basketball coach Kim Barnes Arico (fresh off her team's historic 77-66 win over No. 2-ranked UConn two days earlier ). View this post on Instagram Kildee also found Josh & Jase on the field before the game, which may not have the cache of previous years (Michigan is 5-3, Michigan State is 2-6).

EAST LANSING — It may not be March, but there was madness in the air Friday, Nov. 6, as Valparaiso downed Purdue in double overtime at Mackey Arena. And the player who scored the game-winning shot is one quite familiar to Michigan State's point guard. With all of 0.1 seconds on the clock, Valparaiso guard Justus McNair pulled up for a buzzer-beating 3 that sunk Purdue, 83-80, in double overtime. The Joliet, Ill., native played high school ball at Joliet West with Michigan State point guard Jeremy Fears Jr., who gave his old teammate some love on social media after Friday's feat.

Saxena Title IX alert didn't trigger immediate MSU action on assault claims

Michigan State University's Title IX office alerted the MSU health care system's leadership about allegations that medical resident Arpit Saxena sexually assaulted a patient the morning after the report was made, but no immediate action was taken. Emails obtained by The Detroit News show that the Title IX office emailed MSU Office of Health Sciences Senior Vice President Norm Hubbard, Dean of the College of Osteopathic Medicine Joyce deJong, Chief Administrative Officer of MSU Health Care Kristine Allen and others at 8:38 a.m. Friday, April 4, 2025. This was the morning after the first woman told police she'd been sexually assaulted by Saxena. MSU Health Care leadership might consider whether interim employment actions were needed while the Title IX office investigated the complaint against Saxena, said the email, which was obtained under a public records request.

No. 5 Spartans aim to settle score with Michigan in Big Ten semifinal

No. 5 Michigan State women's soccer has another shot at Michigan. This time, there's no room for mistakes. The Spartans will face the Wolverines in the Big Ten Women's Soccer Tournament semifinals at 2 p.m. Sunday in St. Louis. With the football rivalry taking center stage on Saturday, Sunday's matchup carries its own weight, with bragging rights and a chance at a championship on the line. Ahead of the Spartans' first meeting with Michigan this season, head coach Jeff Hosler said it was the "most important game on our schedule every year." The rivalry has become increasingly one-sided under Hosler. Michigan has not beaten MichiganState since 2021, and hasn't scored on the Spartans since 2023. Then came a rain-filled afternoon on Sept. 20. Michigan entered its matchup against the No. 1 Spartans with little to lose, but left with three points and glorious bragging rights. The loss shifted the rivalry's narrative and the momentum of the Spartans' season. The September result also evened the all-time series between the programs. MSU and Michigan now sit at 17 wins each and seven draws. Michigan has three Big Ten Tournament trophies to the Spartans' zero. The Spartans have three Big Ten regular-season titles
