Flashes Host Central Michigan to Open Up MAC Play
KENT- The Golden Flashes open up Mid-American Conference play as they welcome in the Central Michigan Chippewas for a three-game home series.
Due to forecasted rain on late Friday and Saturday, the teams will play a doubleheader on Friday, starting at 11 a.m.
The Flashes are riding a 15-game regular-season home win streak dating back to last season. The streak continued in dramatic fashion on Tuesday night as Kyle Jackson hit a walk-off grand slam to cap a six-run ninth as Kent State defeated Tiffin, 11-7.
Tim Orr continued his hot streak, going four-for-five against his former team. He has at least two hits in five straight games and is hitting a team-best .477, good for second in the MAC.
