Friday night was a huge moment for Eastern Michigan’s men’s basketball program.
Emoni Bates, a former high school phenom who recently transferred to EMU from Memphis, made his official return to the state by making his debut with the new team at Little Caesars Arena.
Final score: Michigan 88, EMU 83.
The game was photographed by Tariq Speights. Tariq is a senior at EMU, is a linebacker for the football team, and a visual storyteller. You can find some of his previous work on his Instagram page.
