Nolan Gerou, Spartan Shadows

The Big Ten Tournament saw Michigan State basketball enter as a three seed on a triple bye. Unfortunately, the Spartans were unable to advance beyond their opening night of the Tournament, as the upset-minded UCLA Bruins dominated the Spartans from start to finish in a 88-84 Michigan State loss.

Nolan Gerou was on hand for the Big Ten Tournament in Chicago, and here are his best images for Spartan Shadows during that game.
