To say it wasn’t the ‘Cats’ day would be an understatement.
Coming in sitting at fourth in the Big Ten, Northwestern (11-5, 3-2 B1G) lost convincingly to the middling Michigan State Spartans (9-8, 3-3 B1G) in East Lansing this Sunday afternoon.
Though it was far from her best game, star Veronica Burton still finished with nine points, eight rebounds, five assists, and six steals, while Laya Hartman and Caileigh Walsh led NU in scoring with 10 points apiece. For Michigan State, it was all Nia Clouden and Matilda Ekh, as those two combined for 37 points and 11 threes in a dominant performance.
