Kent State (5-2) will play two games in three days for the second time in an eight-day period as it returns to the M.A.C. Center to host the University of Louisiana at Monroe on Thursday at 7 p.m. The Golden Flashes will play Canisius on Saturday with both games being part of the 2015 Continental Tire Las Vegas Classic.
The Flashes are coming off a busy weekend in which they earned their first two road wins of the season. After a 66-62 win over Cleveland State at Quicken Loans Arena on Saturday, Kent State pulled out an 80-75 victory in a hostile environment at NJIT in what was a high-level December contest.
