The Kent State women's basketball team concludes its three-game week in Northeast Ohio at the Akron Classic. The Golden Flashes are slated to take on Florida Gulf Coast on Friday at 5 p.m. and then Southeastern Louisiana at 12 p.m. Saturday inside of James A. Rhodes Arena.
Kent State (2-0) looks to win its first three games of the year for the first time since 2010-11, when they started 6-0. Stellar defense has been key in the first two games, as the Flashes are holding opponents to just 49.0 points per game on 30.7 percent shooting and forcing 20.
