Update to this story: @m_vanvooren14 signed yesterday with the Cleveland Browns.
Mitch Van Vooren is fighting for a chance in the NFL this summer. That's a crazy sentence when you think that just over two years ago the Peshtigo native was on the track team at Marquette.

Programming note for all the #mubb summer sickos (said with utmost affection): Ben Gold won't be at the open practice because he will be off to play with the New Zealand Tall Blacks in the FIBA Asia Cup.
Catch a first look at the 2025-26 team at Open Practice this week 👀. Join the team as they prepare for the season this Thursday at 6pm at the Al McGuire Center!. #MUBB | #WeAreMarquette
