Kent Record-Courier story
Kent St. fan here.
Above is the KSU beat writer's story.
It was just an incredible game. I thought we should have built more of a lead the first half as we seemd to be gettting better shots, but just weren't making them. Once the game got to the 2nd half, both teams really stepped it up a few notches. Lisch obviously had a great game--so many clutch shots. Your team has significantly raised its talent level since last season, and you really came on then as the season progressed. The game at our place last season was just an anomaly anyway.
Fisher is just a freak. Off the court, as the intervews reveal, he is a quiet, humble, almost shy kid. He's really an unselfish player and only takes over games when he gets pushed to. And we really needed him last night when a couple of our other players had off-nights: Singletary, Mincy, Woods.
He's made big runs before and quite a few game-winning shots, but last night was something really rare. Just an amazing performance, and we needed every ounce of it because you guys just wouldn't let up.
Lisch is your star, but I was especially impressed with your freshmen bigs and the guard: those are real players. What a great class RM signed. By the end of this year, as they get seasoned, you guys will be really tough. We are lucky we caught you early this year.
Love the new arena from what I can tell off the internet. Very impressive. Really nice crowd, too. That's about all our arena can hold and we only do that a couple of times per season.
We'll really be pulling for you guys this year. Sure, it helps our RPI, etc., but anyone who can take down X and UD a few notches is good in our book!
Have a great season!
