EAST LANSING, Mich. (AP) Suzy Merchant has been released from a hospital after fainting while coaching Michigan State against Illinois in a women's basketball game.

Michigan State says the 47-year-old Merchant spent the night at a hospital and underwent tests as a precaution after she fainted during Michigan State's 74-47 win Sunday over the Illini. She was released from the hospital Monday.

The university says a time frame for Merchant's return to coaching hasn't been determined. The school didn't release any additional details. The Spartans are at Purdue on Wednesday.
