East Lansing, Mich. - Michigan State head coach Tom Anastos and his wife, Lisa, will host the first-ever Spartan Hockey Women's Clinic on Wednesday, July 18 from 6-10 p.m. at Munn Ice Arena.
The clinic is designed for the female hockey fan - not just the seasoned player. Participants will gain insight on offensive, defensive, and special-team strategies, as well as have a chance to "lace `em up" for some on-ice instruction with current hockey players and the MSU staff.

Special guests participants include Spartan women's coaches Suzy Merchant (Basketball), Cathy George (Volleyball), Stacey Slobodnik-Stoll (Golf), Simone Jardim (Tennis), Jacquie Joseph (Softball) and Kathie Klages (Gymnastics).
