One of the first prospects in the 2025 recruiting class that the new Michigan State coaching staff pursued was Houston Kaahaaina-Torres, a Hawaii native.

WyoFile has acquired a photograph of a lynx in Wyoming, a landmark observation of a species currently considered absent from the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem.
