Michigan State coach Tom Izzo’s son, graduate student Steven Izzo, scored his first career points on Sunday near the end of the Spartans’ game vs. Rutgers.
The shot thrown up by Izzo took its time to go through the net as Spartans fans held their collective breath. But when the ball officially went through the net, the Breslin Center crowd erupted in cheers. The student section and the Michigan State bench began jumping up and down.
Some of Izzo’s teammates helped him up and hugged him as the arena continued screaming for the coach’s son. The Spartans may have been up by 20 points, but the fans sounded like the team had won the national championship with how loud it got.
