The Zips and the Golden Flashes faced off this past Saturday in Kent, Ohio; the Flashes came out victorious.
The Zips came out looking as good as they have all season, pushing their lead to 13 early in the first few minutes. This lead did not last, as the remainder of the game was a closely battled contest.
The Flashes cut Akron’s lead to only three points until they ended the half on a 4-0 run. This helped Kent State take a 32-31 lead into halftime.
Before the teams could get to the locker rooms, there was a slight altercation between Kent State’s De La Rose and Akron’s Eric Parrish.
