Kent State senior forward Jordan Korinek picked up two quick fouls Wednesday night, which set the tone early in the game.
Buffalo (18-4, 9-2 Mid-American Conference) finished the first quarter on a 14-0 run, and Kent State (11-13, 4-8 MAC) trailed, 25-9, after the first quarter. The Bulls shot the ball well early on and were able to get out in transition.
Korinek checked back into the game about a minute into the second quarter. She scored 14 points in the period, shooting 5-for-6 from the field and 4-for-4 from the line.
However, the team shot just 8-for-27 from the field and 1-for-11 from three-point range.
