Ohio will look to extend its season-high four-game win streak when it hosts Kent State for a three-game series this weekend at Bob Wren Stadium.
After they swept Eastern Michigan on the road last weekend and narrowly defeated Youngstown State with a 3-2 win last Tuesday, the Bobcats have a chance to leapfrog the Golden Flashes into fourth place in the Mid-American Conference with a series win.
