Men's basketball searches for first conference road win at Kent State

Senior guard Josh Kozinski prepares to pass the ball during the basketball game against Tennessee Tech on Dec. 9 at McGuirk Arena.

To open Mid-American Conference play, the Central Michigan men’s basketball team came out with a convincing 75-50 win in McGuirk Arena over Ohio on Tuesday night.

The Chippewas will aim to make another statement by taking down the defending MAC Tournament Champions on the road.

CMU (12-2, 1-0 MAC) will travel to the Memorial Athletic and Convocation Center to take Kent State (6-8, 0-1) on Jan. 6 at 7 p.m.

A season ago, the Golden Flashes ended the Chippewas' season in the first round of the MAC Tournament by defeating CMU 116-106 in overtime.
