🔼 Ranked Dawgs. Following a week in which the Bulldogs took down No. 21 Memphis, State men’s basketball climbed the rankings, earning a spot at No. 19 in the latest AP Poll and USA Today Coaches Poll. MSU is 11-1 heading into the final game of 2024 and has won five straight games with SEC play starting up in the new year.

🔼 Going Pro. After being named First Team All-SEC, SEC Midfielder of the Year and helping lead the Bulldog to a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament, Macey Hodge will become the fourth State soccer athlete to turn pro after signing a two-year contract with Angel City FC.

🗣️ “I am beyond excited to join a club that’s not only dedicated to growing the women’s game but also invested in strengthening the community around it… I’m thrilled to be a part of a team that’s building a unique sense of camaraderie while also fostering a deep love for soccer!” - Macey Hodge
