The volleyball team moved their games from Jenison Fieldhouse to the Breslin Events Center to start Big Ten play. They beat Ohio State in four and it was really fun! Tonight they are trying to break the attendance record for their match against Michigan and Michigan is ranked 21 in the nation!
This is the Breslin Center. The facility is mostly for basketball and events like concerts. Actually, sometime next month they are hosting a gymnastics showcase with a bunch of the Olympic gymnasts.
This is a statue of Magic Johnson who is a MSU alum and actually went to high school in Lansing. It's a cool statue although it doesn't look much like him!
Inside Breslin this was a cool idea... they had life-size images of tallest and shortest girls on the team, the girl with the longest wingspan and the biggest and smallest hands so people could go compare. 
Mikel's slightly confused... wearing his Michigan State hat with Michigan colored t-shirt... we'll have to work on that!
There were about 3700 people in the crowd. Hopefully they break the record tonight, that would be really cool to see! The match was fun although the best outside hitter on the team went down with a knee injury that didn't look good and was on crutches after the game. It was a good thing she was hidden behind the ref stand so I didn't have to see it!!
