The Kent State soccer team (8-7-2, 4-4-1 Mid-American Conference) fell just short of a comeback Thursday night in its 4-3 loss against Western Michigan (12-5, 6-3 MAC).
The Flashes got an early start in the 4th minute when sophomore forward Cameron Shedenhelm scored off of a header.
“I think we started off with a lot of confidence,” coach Rob Marinaro said.
By the 21st minute Kent State led in shots (5-3), but Western Michigan managed to tie it up with a goal from sophomore Bailey Korhorn.
It didn’t take much longer for Western Michigan to take the lead with 3 more goals in the 24th, 37th and 43rd minutes consecutively.
