  • Summary

  • Let's go ABOVE the Mitten this weekend!


    Have you heard about the BIG game that is being played on October 13 in majestic Marquette? It's kind of a big deal, and we'll bring you the whole scoop right from the source.


    The Northern Michigan University Wildcats are hosting the exhibition basketball game of the year, when they take on the Michigan State Spartans at the Superior Dome on October 13. MSU Coach Tom Izzo, an NMU alum, is coming home, and the whole town is ready to celebrate.


    We'll be sharing how this whole thing came together, and why community events like this are so important to NMU and Marquette. We'll talk about some of NMU's other collaborations in the area, including a very fun one with our good friends at Blackrocks Brewery. Alumni themselves, they've brewed up a special beer for this game (and to be served at other alumni events throughout the fall) the very tasty Wildcat Lager. You can try it too when you are at the brewery.


    While we can't attend this fun event, since tickets are currently sold out, we are excited to hear that we'll be able to watch it on the Big Ten Network, how cool is that?


    We hope you'll tune in!
