An excellent read from our very own @NewsPressDan on the longstanding legacy that Sammy Sirianni Jr. and his father, Sam Sirianni Sr., have left on the city of Fort Myers and the program theyβve led collectively for nearly six decades. https://t.co/vdbvi0N0u4

For 57 years, the Siriannis carried Fort Myers football through generations, leaving behind a legacy that feels like home.

5:17 2H: Michigan State 64, North Carolina 52 Michigan State's offense is fun to watch. They're north of 50 percent on a team ranked inside the top 25 by KenPom on defensive efficiency, and have a 9-0 run over the last 2+ minutes. Spartans trending towards a 7-0 start here.

7:49 2H: Michigan State 55, North Carolina 52 Henri Veesaar's been the reason why the Tar Heels are still in it. He has 13 of UNC's 24 second-half points. North Carolina's hanging around here in Fort Myers. If North Carolina gets going from 3-point land, watch out.

Michigan State could've seen the 7-point deficit they faced early on get a lot larger. North Carolina had chances at the rim but didn't finish. Tar Heels are sitting at just 33% shooting, and didn't get much production from Caleb Wilson after he had six early points.

Divine Ugochukwu nailed a trey and Jeremy Fears Jr. found Cameron Ward inside to force a UNC timeout.
3:18 1Q: Michigan State 28, North Carolina 22 Call it Breslin South? This intensity from the pro-Spartan crowd has been beyond impressive, and it is LOUD. Carolina's been held scoreless over the last 4+ minutes, resulting in a 13-0 Spartan run.
