East Lansing — While the Michigan State community grapples with the tragedy of Monday night’s mass shooting, the Spartans’ athletic department is also doing its best to navigate a difficult time.
In the immediate aftermath of the shootings that claimed the life of three students and injured five others who were all in critical condition as of midday Tuesday, Michigan State’s campus has been shut down, with only essential personnel reporting for the rest of the week and classes not set to resume until Monday.
That means all athletics have officially been postponed through at least Wednesday, the university confirmed in a release on Tuesday night.
