Landon DuPont commits to Michigan, passing on Michigan State

Defenseman Landon DuPont has announced his commitment to Michigan for the upcoming college hockey season. This decision comes after DuPont visited both Michigan and Michigan State last week, with Michigan emerging as the choice in a significant rivalry. Last season, DuPont played for the Everett Silvertips in the WHL, tallying 73 points in 63 games. Michigan State, despite the setback, is expected to remain a strong contender in the Big Ten and for the National Championship next year.
