DeKALB — A goal on a delayed penalty at the end of the second period, and a power play goal to open the third period were enough for Kent State University in their 4-2 victory over NIU.
In the Huskies’ first game since Dec. 7, they allowed the Golden Flashes to get their first road win of the season in the first-ever meeting between the teams.
After going down 1-0 midway through the second period, NIU responded well to the deficit. Sophomore defenseman Zach Huggins scored minutes after the Golden Flash goal. Assisting on the goal was first-year forward Alex Piotrowski.
