For the 25th time in program history, the Kent State women’s golf program won the Mid-American Conference Championship on Tuesday to remain the only program in the league to ever hoist the trophy.
The Golden Flashes also claimed the individual title for the second year in a row, although this year the honor is shared by a pair of golfers. Sophomore Leon Takagi and senior Hester Sicking shared the top spot on the leaderboard, finishing the tournament 6-over par. Takagi has led the field all three days, while Sicking used an even-par 72, the low round of the day, to jump up three spots.
After leading by just two strokes entering Tuesday’s final round, the Flashes came through when it mattered most, posting a low-round 13-over par as a squad. Kent State finished 11 strokes ahead of second-place Toledo.
