"We were two different teams from the first half to the second half," Canisius coach Nick Ma-carchuk said.

"We made mistakes because we're young. We fouled too much and we didn't get ourselves to the free-throw line." KENT STATE'S 60-48 lead with 5:54 to play was whittled to 65-62 when Ray Hall scored going down the lane with 46 seconds to play. The Eagles' Ed Becton fouled Marvin Robinson on the play, but the Kent State center missed both free throws. After a Kent State timeout, Gregg Martinsen's lay-up with seven seconds remaining moved the Eagles to within 65-64. Martinsen then fouled Larry Robbins, who made both free throws with four seconds left.

Hall stepped on the baseline to the right of the Kent State basket while attempting a driving shot at the horn. "We got up by a good margin several times," Kent State coach Jitn McDonald said, "but we didn't play smartly." In Kent State's defense, the Flashes were concluding a revolving-door type schedule in which they played four games in eight days, winning three and losing only to fourth-ranked Memphis State. "It has been a hectic week," McDonald said, "and I guess we showed it at times today. "But, we won and that's what counts." This week, Kent embarks on a three-game trip to the West Coast during which the Flashes will play St. Mary's Saturday, Pep-perdine Dec.

21 and Fresno State Dec. 23. Even after that, they remain away from home for games at Akron Dec. 30 and the Mid-American Conference opener at Miami Jan. 5.

They return home to play Western Michigan Jan. 8. BUT BACK to Saturday's game at Memorial Gym, where the Flashes are 4-0 this year. Granted, the Flashes blew several big leads. They also turned in a free-throw shooting performance in the crucial closing minutes of the game that came up just short of laughable.

Kent State missed the first shot on if could have been eight one- and-one situations. After converting eight of 10 free throws in taking a 32-24 lead ai. intermission, Kent State made just seven of 19 in the second half, finishing 15-for-29 (51 percent). There were, however, redeeming factors in Kent State's overall performance.
