Some MSU teams find success

MSU Football team Shared the title of Big ten champs. Women’s basketball recently took home the title as Big Ten champs. But there are other programs on MSU’s athletic team that, although often hidden from the spotlight, that have had their share of success.
Women’s Cross Country and Track and field have both found their stride on the big ten and national stage in recent seasons.
Women’s cross country raced passed competitors in the 2010 fall season placing high among their others teams throughout the regular season. 
However, when post season began, the team turned up the heat by topping the podium at the Big Ten Cross Country championship  with a first place finish by Senior Emily MacLeod. 

They followed up their victory at Big Ten’s by taking top honors at NCAA Great Lakes Regional with another first place finish from MacLeod. 
The Women’s Track and Field showed a strong indoor season with three first place finishes, including two from Emily MacLeod  and many top ten finishes at the Big Ten Indoor Track and Field Championships and a fourth place finish 

Both teams were together ranked recently by the USTFCCCA as 21st in the nation
