After starting the season with a 3-1 record at the OSU Invite, Michigan State followed it up with a 4-0 record at their home tournament, the MSU Invite, making them three time defending champions. The Spartans looked a little shaky at times, but mostly dominated the competition to move to 7-1 on the season.

Their first match was against BGSU, and State was able to roll. By getting out BGSU’s #4 Brady Etzler early and often, Michigan State was able to limit the offensive capabilities of the Falcons and led by Alex Acton the Spartans were able to get a 5-1 the victory. Following that was a battle with #1 Kent State, who MSU had already beaten this season. In an intense, hard fought battle, the Spartans pulled off a 2-0 win. Kent State’s #13 Camden Fullmer, one of the best players in the country, had an especially good game for the Flashes, but a team effort by MSU gave them a victory. Next was Central Michigan, led by #27 Wes Peters, #00 Bryce Corrion, and #4 Brett Hadwin, but they only had 10 players. The Chips took the first point after some sloppy play by MSU, but the Spartans turned it around, and won 8-1. Their final match of the day was against Depaul, and after getting out to a 5-0 lead at halftime, the game was called after #51 for Depaul dislocated her shoulder.

Overall almost all the Spartans had great games, and Chris Kramer and Andrew Koczara played their last home tournament for MSU.
