This More than a mascot story is about Kent State University's quest for a golden eagle, which ends with a blind, rescued bird. A collision with a truck in California left a wild golden eagle severely injured and without a mate. Now, she has a home near Sandusky and is Kent State's new live mascot, "Flash." Flash made her first courtside appearance at the men's basketball game against the University of Akron January 23, 2008.

This story also shows yet another way Back To The Wild educates the public about wildlife rehabilitation.
