The Kent State men’s basketball team headed into its game at Norfolk State Wednesday night on the back of a three-game losing streak without leading scorer Jaylin Walker due to an ankle injury.
Despite their opponent sporting an 0-6 record, the Flashes once again knew they were facing adversity heading into the contest.
Kent State (4-3) answered the questions, perhaps unconvincingly, with a 79-70 road win over the Spartans (0-7). The Flashes scored 51 points in the second half after trailing at halftime.
After practice Monday, coach Rob Senderoff emphasized the Flashes' need to close out games after their poor second half performances in their three losses.
