Soccer hosts MAC tournament for first time in history

The Kent State soccer team ended its Wednesday practice on penalty kicks. This is not rare in the regular season, but in the postseason, a missed penalty kick can be the difference between the end of a team’s season or the beginning of a playoff run.

It can be the difference between looking forward to the next season or making history.

The Flashes are hoping to do what no Kent State team has done before them — win a Mid-American Conference (MAC) Championship.

The second-seeded Flashes won their first conference tournament game since 2012 last Sunday in a 2-0 win over seventh-seeded Eastern Michigan University.
