Ohio then registered back-to-back corners in the 36th and 38th minutes, however, Kent State took advantage of a misplayed ball, taking a 2-0 lead in the 41st.

Moments later, Kent State responded with another goal, taking a 3-0 lead in the 54thminute.Â
The two teams continued to trade offensive possessions, with both teams recording multiple corner kicks. However, the Bobcats were unable to capitalize on their attempts. Kent State added on in the 74th minute, on a goal in the top corner of the net that was just out of reach of Rammel, giving the Flashes a 4-0 lead.Â
Ohio continued to battle down the stretch, with a shot from Bell coming in the 77th minute that forced a Kent State save. Both teams traded possessions down the stretch, but the Bobcats were unable to get on the board, falling by the final of 4-0.Â
Up next, the Bobcats are back in action on Thursday, Oct. 15 when they head to Oxford, Ohio to take on Miami. First touch is set for 7 p.m. ET and can be seen on the Miami Athletics website.Â
