95 days till kickoff for @KentStFootball!🏈

There were a combined 95 points in the Flashes 48-47 OT win over Miami OH to clinch the MAC east title at Dix Stadium in 2021

A broken up two point attempt by Montre Miller in OT sealed the Flashes victory…just a crazy game⚡️

An important resume note for @KentStBaseball⚡️

Per Warren Nolan data from 2021-present, every team that had at least the three qualifications below made NCAA regionals

-40+ overall wins
-20+ road wins
-Combined 10 or more quad one and two wins

Kent State checks all three

[Golden Flash Report @GFRFlashReport]

ICYMI: @CoachSendy sat down with @GoodmanHoops and the @TheFieldOf68 for a MM roundtable, a lot of good insight if you’re a @KentStMBB fan, college hoops or mid-major fan

[Golden Flash Report @GFRFlashReport]

We’ll see what Selection Monday holds but every national projection has them on the wrong end of the bubble, which is frustrating because if you saw them play Tennessee, Pitt, Michigan, etc, this team is absolutely a Regional team, but disappointingly could not control it in Avon

[Golden Flash Report @GFRFlashReport]

Flashes come up short in Avon again. The key to this tournament is to be the best version of yourself, to find a way to be focused and ready, but also free, easy and loose, and for whatever reason KSU was not their best version, seemed tight at times and didn’t play to potential.

Final from Avon.

Flashes moving on! Pitching staff allows 7 hits in 18 innings and just 2 runs, the best staff in the MAC all season, they’ll have a chance to continue this run tomorrow, weather permitting!
