The Drake match was one of three athletic events postponed Wednesday in the wake of the Monday’s shooting, along with the MSU-Minnesota game and a women's basketball game at Purdue. A women’s gymnastics road meet at Illinois scheduled for Friday also was postponed. “Athletics can be a rallying point for a community in need of healing, a fact many of our student-athletes have mentioned to me. The opportunity to represent our entire community has never felt greater. I also recognize that everyone grieves in their own unique manner, and there are some who aren't ready to return to athletic events. Those feelings are incredibly valid, and as Coach Izzo so eloquently stated last night, I hope that we will all focus on taking care of one another.
