The 2 p.m. exhibition game will benefit the fight against Friedreich's's Ataxia (FA), a degenerative neuro-muscular disorder that affects one in 50,000 people in the United States. Most individuals have onset of symptoms of FA between the ages of 5 and 18 years, but can occur anytime during adulthood. The Friedreich's's Ataxia Research Alliance is supporting research that will improve the quality and length of life for those diagnosed with FA and will lead to treatments that eliminate its symptoms. More information about FA can be found at CureFA.org.
The game will preview the 2023 USI Screaming Eagles, who will be concluding their fall workouts after a 21-28 mark in 2022. USI is in the process of transitioning to the NCAA Division I after dominating Division II the last 16 year with two national championships and five NCAA II Midwest Regional titles under the direction of Head Coach Tracy Archuleta. Archuleta is in his 17th season at the helm and has a 527-313 (.635) and directed the Eagles to both of their national championships.
Kent State, who is under the direction of new Head Coach Jeff Duncan, was 24-29 before ending the season in the Mid-American Conference Tournament.
