Fresh off the heels of their ninth consecutive loss against Division I opponents, in a 53-45 defeat at the hands of Portland, the Beavers will attempt to regroup once again and hope to finally break their losing skid against a solid Kent State team.

Head coach Wayne Tinkle and company have lost their last four games by a combined 18 points, signifying their inability to close the door against lesser opponents.
