Reptapping Michigan State and Hawaii roots
Jacob Isaia first traveled to Spartan Stadium as a sixth-grader growing up in Hawaii. His grandfather, Michigan State Hall of Famer Bob Apisa, brought him to a 2011 game that left a memorable impression. Kirk Cousins’ Hail Mary touchdown pass to Keith Nichol upset unbeaten and No. 6-ranked Wisconsin, 37-31. Topping off the weekend, Isaia met Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio. “That was my first game there with grandpa,” Isaia said. “I was excited. I met Coach Dantonio, but it was just a brief handshake and hello.”
