The 2017 season can be summed up in a few negative words for the Kent State football team. Injuries. Losses. Heartbreak.
It hasn’t gone the way they planned. But Tuesday was senior night for the Flashes, and they hoped to gain a win over Central Michigan in front of their home crowd one last time. They gave one of their best efforts of the season. Kent State looked inspired early as they forced the Chippewas to punt on their first drive. The after a drive highlighted by a 32-yard catch from quarterback George Bollas to tight end Chalfronte Butler, Shane Hynes made a 23-yard field goal to give the Flashes an early lead.
