After one quarter of play in their Tuesday afternoon matchup against Youngtown State, things looked bleak for the Kent State women’s basketball team.

The Flashes were a dismal 1-8 from the field, with their lone basketball coming on an Alexa Golden layup with seven minutes left in the quarter. To make matters worse, the Flashes had committed eight turnovers, and Jordan Korinek, the facilitator of their offense, was being double-teamed every time she got the ball, which was something that threw the Kent State offense off.

Luckily for the Flashes, coach Todd Starkey switched game-plans, now having the Flashes offensive run through the aggressive play of their guards.
