Cullowhee, NC - The Golden Flashes will visit Cullowhee for the first time this Saturday. While this will be the third meeting between Western and Kent State on the basketball court, both previous meetings were in Kent, Ohio. Western holds a 1-1 record with the Flashes, winning the first meeting in over time 84-89 (in 2008) then losing the second meeting 74-72 (in 2010). The Flashes are 6-1 so far on the season, with their only loss coming at the hands of Cleveland State (9-1, Horizon League), by a score of 57-53.  Kent State has wins over West Virginia, Alcorn State, Louisiana, Morehead State, UAB, & James Madison this year.

Catamount fans will remember Michael Porrini.  He was recruited by Coach Hunter and spent most of his freshmen season at WCU. He played for Gulf Coast College after leaving Western,  prior to transferring to Kent State for his junior season. Now a senior and starting guard, Porrini was the MAC Defensive Player of the Year last year.  Follow the link below for more information on this game.
