Kent State (8-7, 1-2 Mid-American Conference) played its second conference game of the year to a similar result as the first: a close loss.
The Flashes opened the game shooting 1-for-9 from the field as Western Michigan jumped out to an early 10-2 lead during Saturday's game.
The team ended the first quarter shooting just 25 percent from the field, and their best player, senior forward Jordan Korinek, was held scoreless.
“When she tried to cut to space, they did a nice job putting multiple bodies on her,” coach Todd Starkey said.
The second quarter was not much better, as the Flashes shot 6-for-15 from the floor, and Korinek scored four points on 2-for-5 shooting in the quarter.
