For senior guard Cassius Winston, Michigan State’s 87-69 victory over Michigan included a few milestones.

Earning a fourth straight victory over his rival, Winston earned a career high 32 points on nine assists. He also passed Denzel Valentine on MSU’s all-time scoring list, taking over the No. 11 spot.

And while Winston’s two three-point makes incited the returning Izzone students and Breslin crowd to become “so loud where I couldn’t hear,” according to sophomore forward Gabe Brown, it was…

LANSING, MI (WILX) — A popular snow tubing hill in south Lansing is starting the new year with a closed sign — due to the lack of snow.

“It’s been a battle trying to keep it up. We’ve taken everything we’ve made and pushed it together and, you know, made piles this time of year. You know, it’s been either hit or miss whether we’re going to make snow or not,” said Brian Collins, park manager of Hawk Island.

The recent warm weather has not been ideal for Hawk Island Park, which is known for its tubing hill in the…

WASHINGTON — If Democrats are spoiling for a 2020 fight focused on anything besides impeaching President Trump, consider this week’s vote on a massive drug pricing package their opening salvo.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s “Lower Drug Costs Now” Act, a sweeping bill that pledges to lower consumer drug costs by 50%, includes ideas long touted by progressives in Washington: It would let Medicare directly negotiate the price of at least 50 drugs per year and it would cap U.S. drug payments based on costs in other developed countries.

It is hardly the bipartisan drug pricing…

The latest reports revealed the total number of international students arrested (many of whom left voluntarily and some of whom were deported) as part of the fake university operation has risen to around 250, meaning a further 90 students have been impacted since the original story broke in early 2019.

In addition, federal prosecutors charged eight men with being recruiters of the students.

“HSI special agents made it abundantly clear… that the school did not offer academic or vocational programs”

In a statement to the Detroit Free Press, the head of the investigative division…

LANSING, MI (WILX) — A celebration was held at Sparrow Hospital honoring a 10-year-old and his miraculous recovery on Monday.

The boy was hit by a car last year and has since made amazing strides toward recovery.

Now, Scott seems just like a normal kid. He enjoys playing sports in his backyard and just being with his friends. But just one year ago, doctors weren’t even sure he would survive.

“He came in with severe head injuries, severe facial injuries, and even worse, he was bleeding…
