Scoring explosion overcomes slow start, Flashes top Hiram

Early in the first half the Kent State men’s basketball team was in a much closer game than expected with Hiram College.

Kent State is a young team and has lots of players in new roles, and with 6:54 left in the first half Hiram was up by six.

“You can tell by how we started the game we were anxious,” coach Rob Senderoff said. “But as the game progressed, you saw us loosen up a bit and play more the way we expect to.”

Kent came out in the second half and slowly started to build a lead, until senior guard Troy Simons crossed over his defender and hit a long two.
