The Central Michigan soccer team controlled the entire first half with fundamental defense and an early goal from senior defensive midfielder Taylor Potts who had just returned from an injury.
Everything was going good for the Chippewas, until the second half came around.
Kent State controlled the entire second half offensively, scoring all three of its goals to beat the Chippewas 3-1 to advance to the Mid-American Championship game.
Head coach Peter McGahey said he was hoping his team would still be playing come Sunday, but couldn't be upset with his team's performance throughout the game.
