Softball
The Bulldog softball team is coming off a road split at nationally 14th-ranked rival Grand Valley State on Sunday as the Bulldogs captured a 1-0 decision in the nightcap on the road. FSU is currently 21-20 overall and near the top of the GLIAC standings with a 9-7 conference slate. FSU hosts Parkside on Saturday for Military Appreciation Day and Purdue Northwest on Sunday for Senior Day. Both days begin with game one at 1 pm (ET) followed by game two around 3 pm (ET). FSU is also slated to host Lewis in non-league play on Tuesday.
 
Men's & Women's Golf
The Bulldog men's golf team captured the 2024 GLIAC Championships last weekend in Augusta (Mich.), beating rival Grand Valley State on Sunday in the head-to-head medal play final for the program's 22nd all-time GLIAC Championship. This week, the women's team will head to Augusta for the women's conference championship. The teams will play 36 holes of stroke play on Friday and Saturday with the top four squads advancing to head-to-head medal play on Sunday. 
 
Men's & Women's Tennis
The Bulldog men's tennis team pulled out a huge win on the road on Sunday, beating Wayne State in a showdown between the GLIAC leaders. Both teams return home this week to host Michigan Tech on Friday and Lake Superior State on Saturday in league action in the final two home contests of the regular-season. The men's team needs one win to secure at least a share of the GLIAC regular-season championship or two wins to claim the outright crown. Both women's contests start at 10 am with the men's action beginning at 2 pm each day inside the Racquet and Fitness Center.
 
Track & Field
The Ferris State men's and women's outdoor track and field squads took part in both the Bison Outdoor Classic in Lewisburg (Pa.) along with the Panther Invitational hosted by Davenport University last weekend in Caledonia. This week, FSU heads to Grand Valley State for the annual Al Owens Classic starting on Friday in Allendale.
                               
Football
The Ferris State football team will close out spring football drills by holding the annual Crimson & Gold Spring Game on Friday, April 19, with kickoff slated for 5:30 pm at Top Taggart Field. Admission to the spring game at Top Taggart Field is free. The game will also be carried live on local flagship station Sunny 97.3 FM along with a free live video webcast on YouTube @FerrisAthletics.
