🔼 Three Of A Kind. The season may be over, but Josh Hubbard continues to make history for the Mississippi State men’s hoops program.
On Wednesday night, Hubbard became the first three-time male winner of the Howell Trophy. Named after Mississippi State legend and Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame inductee Bailey Howell, the honor is given to the state of Mississippi's top collegiate player.
Hubbard extended State's run of dominance to eight of the last nine seasons with the Howell Trophy winner which is presented by the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians and Pearl River Resort. Since 2017-18, Hubbard has been joined by two-time recipient Quinndary Weatherspoon in addition to Iverson Molinar, Reggie Perry and Tolu Smith III.
🔼 Welcome To The Fam. The Mississippi State women’s basketball squad added another piece to the puzzle for next season on Wednesday.
Reese Beaty, a rising sophomore guard, who spent her freshman season at Iowa State signed on to join the Bulldogs for the 2026-27 season.
In 27 games, the Jamestown, Tenn., native made a pair of starts and averaged 4.6 points, 3.3 assists, 2.6 rebounds and nearly one steal across 20.6 minutes per game during the 2025-26 campaign.
🔼 You Can’t Run On Jake. PNC Park found out what Hail State fans already knew… you don’t run on Jake!
Former Bulldog Jake Mangum fired home his eighth career outfield assist on Tuesday night in the Pirates one-run game with the Washington Nationals. Mangum has played in 14 games this year for Pittsburgh with eight hits and six runs scored as a critical piece of the first-place start for the squad.
