KENT, Ohio – The Kent State Herb Page men’s golf team travels to central Ohio this weekend for the Robert Kepler Invitational, one of the Golden Flashes’ final regular-season tune-ups before the Mid-American Conference Championship. The Kepler will be contested at Columbus Country Club in Bexley this year, rather than at its longtime home, the Scarlet Course at The Ohio State University Golf Club. The move was prompted by NCAA regulations prohibiting a host institution from staging a regular-season event on a course that also hosts an NCAA Regional, with the Scarlet set to host the NCAA Columbus Regional later this spring.<\/p>\n
