As hard as it is to believe, this season marks the passing of the two-decade milepost since the Kent State men’s basketball team reached the Elite Eight of the NCAA Tournament.
That was the 2001-02 season, but you don’t have to dig through the internet to scrounge up stories about that iconic Golden Flashes hoops team. Old KSU friend Steve Sefner, the former radio voice of the Flashes who called all the action that season, authored “The Golden Dream: The Story of the 2001-2002 Kent State Men’s Basketball Elite Eight Season” (Gatekeeper Press 2022) — and you will have two opportunities to purchase and/or get a signed copy of the book in the very near future.
