Forward Antonio Campbell had no sympathy for Kent State.
His 3-pointer from outside the arc with 35 seconds left erupted a Convo crowd that could have been asleep and, in return, put the Golden Flashes to bed in the 9 p.m. Friday game in which Ohio (13-7, 4-4 Mid-American Conference) won 72-61 on national television.
“Ah, I saw him drifting out there,” Ohio coach Saul Phillips said. “I figured he’d make it. It was a fitting way for him to end the game. He did everything else for us, might as well get that, too.”
Campbell grinned ear to ear and held out three lengthy fingers as he jogged back on defense, soaking in his 28th point of the night.
