Soccer loses one, wins one over weekend

The weekend for the Kent State women’s soccer team got off to a rocky start with a 3-1 loss to the Bowling Green Falcons (6-4-2, 4-0) Friday night at Dix Stadium.

The Flashes trailed early after a goal from Bowling Green forward Nikki Cox. Bowling Green midfielder Nikhita Jacob followed up with another score in the 13th minute to give the Falcons at 2-0 lead going into the half. Coach Rob Marinaro talked about the physicality of the match.

“We really went away from trying to produce some of the attack that we wanted to do, and we got caught up in a physical game along with not playing our style of soccer,” he said.
