A little history - we last played Kent St. in the the Elite 8 in 2002 and won 81-69. They were led by an all-conference power forward named Antonio Gates, who went on to be an all-pro tight end in the NFL for the Chargers. We hit 15 3s in that game with Coverdale, Hornsby and company leading the way that propelled us into the Final Four, and eventual National Title game against Maryland.
Not suggesting we hit 15 3s, but perhaps that’s where we’re headed again this year, and it starts with the Golden Flashes on Friday night.
