The Kent State volleyball team’s (13-18, 6-11 Mid-American Conference) roller coaster season came to an end on Thursday at the hands of a gritty Eastern Michigan squad.
The Flashes started off up the first set up 4-2, with the Eagles (18-13, 10-7 MAC) taking the lead right back, going up 7-6. Eastern Michigan led for most of the rest of the set until Kent State stormed back to take the lead 26-25 after being down four points multiple times during the set. The Eagles scored the final three points to take the thrilling opening set, 28-26. That proved to be the deciding set as the Flashes went on to drop the final two sets.
