EAST LANSING, Mich. — 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 lives 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 been postponed, as well, through at least Friday, athletic director Alan Haller confirmed.
