Senior center Kahliq Spicer looks to pass the ball after gathering the offensive rebound during the first half of the Kent State vs Youngstown game on Nov. 14, 2015. The Golden Flashes won 79-70.
Spicer came to Kent State after playing at Robichaud High School, then Amateur Athletic Union basketball for the Michigan Mustangs. He was ranked No. 41 at his position by ESPN when he joined the Flashes back in 2012.
When Senderoff first met Spicer, the current 6-foot-9 player 230 pounder was only 192 pounds, which meant he was going to have to put on some weight to handle the size of Division I athletes.
