LINCOLN â By tip-off Sunday night, the Michigan menâs basketball team already knew its postseason fate. After Iowaâs victory earlier that day, the Wolverines knew a matchup with No. 9 seed Illinois awaited them in the second round of the Big Ten Tournament in Washington D.C later this week.Â
But before Michigan could turn the page on its regular season, the Wolverines had one last task to attend to  â a road contest with Nebraska (6-12 Big Ten, 12-18 overall) in Pinnacle Bank Arena.
Dear subscribers,
Sunday night, the Michigan men's basketball team routed Nebraska, 93-57, to finish its regular season. SportsMonday reflects on the Michigan men's basketball team's place going in to the Big Ten Tournament, and our Co-Managing Sports Editor reflects on their Sunday night performance. The Sexual Assault Prevention and Awareness Center appointed Nadia Bazzy as interim director until the end of the year. Finally, University of Michigan experts have spoken out against Trump's executive order demanding a review of the controversial Waters of the United States rule.
All the best,
The Michigan Daily
There is one aspect of being the No. 8 seed that creates an irresistible storyline leading up to this tournament for Michigan. The team it will face, Illinois, is due at least partial credit for starting the Wolverinesâ second-half run in the first place.
Derrick Walton Jr. broke Michigan's single-game assist record as the Wolverines dominated Nebraska in Lincoln.
On Friday March 3, Nadia Bazzy began her new position as interim director of the University of Michigan Sexual Assault Prevention and Awareness Center. Bazzy, previously assistant director of the Office of Student Conflict Resolution, will oversee SAPAC through the end of the year as organization leaders continue the search for a permanent director this spring.
On Feb. 28, President Donald J. Trump signed an executive order demanding a review of the controversial Waters of the United States rule. The act, signed in during Barack Obamaâs presidency, allows for the regulation and protection of smaller bodies of water in the country. Reports were also leaked regarding a 97 percent funding cut for the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative.
