Photo Gallery from Michigan State Football’s First Spring Practice
On March 17, Michigan State football opened spring practice to bring the dawn of the Pat Fitzgerald era. The Spartans started practice at 6:20 a.m. EST, and media was allowed in a few minutes after to capture the moments from the opening practice of the season.
Spartan Shadows had Nolan Gerou on hand to capture the practice, and here are the best pieces from the start of spring football this season.
