Ugly 1st half turns into 76-68 loss for Bowling Green men's basketball at Kent State

KENT, Ohio — Thirteen turnovers, minus-five in the rebounding margin, 30.8 percent shooting from the field, and 28 total points.

Those first-half totals most likely would have amounted to a blowout margin, but that wasn’t the case in Bowling Green State University’s 76-68 men’s basketball loss to Kent State on Tuesday night.

The 20-minute rock fight had the Golden Flashes ahead of the Falcons 29-28 at the break -— a one-point deficit BGSU was lucky to have.

But the grey skies cast from a sloppy first half cascaded into a downpour down the stretch for the visitors, as Kent State pulled away to defeat Bowling Green at the Memorial Athletic and Convocation Center.
