Last year, the Golden Flashes earned eight individual titles, and were led by junior Ann Marie Duffus, who won a pair of events competing for the first time as a Golden Flash. Duffus captured the long jump title with a 18-10.50, then posted the second-best women's 60-meter hurdles time in school history by clocking an 9.50 to win the event.

Brandon Bailey set the school record in the 500-meter dash, clocking a 1:03.57 on his way to a first-place finish. Also, the 200-meter dash was swept by Kent State. Junior Miles Dunlap clocked a personal best 22.00 for the men, while junior Roseanne Erickson recorded a 24.72, which was good for sixth on the school's top-10 list.

After the Gala, the Golden Flashes will host the Doug Raymond Invitational at the Kent State Field House on Saturday, Jan. 11.
