Simons ties record for most 3-pointers in program history, Chippewas roll Kent State

Junior guard Kellon Thomas pulls up to take a shot against CMU senior Chris Fowler at McGuirk Arena on Tuesday, Feb. 2, 2016.

The crowd was chanting “Ke-no Da-vis.” The 3-point magic returned on the Harry Potter promotion night. And Chris Fowler even cracked a few smiles.

The Central Michigan men’s basketball team might not mind a repeat of Groundhogs Day 2016.

CMU claimed its first regular season regulation victory over Kent State on Tuesday since Feb. 26, 1997 in dominant fashion. CMU was 1-13 overall against KSU since 2004.

When the clock hit 0:00, the Chippewas won 88-61, handing the Golden Flashes their worst loss of the season in front of 2,132 animated fans at McGuirk Arena.
