The University of Toledo will host a pair of first-round Mid-American Conference Tournament games at Savage Arena Monday, March 6.
The Rocket women will play Akron at 5:30 p.m., while the men will host Bowling Green at 8 p.m.
The Toledo men are 16-15, 9-9 MAC, and have the No. 7 seed in the MAC Tournament. Bowling Green is 13-17, 7-11 MAC, and seeded No. 10. The winner of the Toledo-Bowling Green game Monday will advance to the quarterfinals of the MAC Tournament and face the No. 2 seed (opponent TBA) Thursday at Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland.
The first-round opponent for the Rocket women will be announced following Saturday’s regular-season finale at Ball State (2 p.m. tip-off). If Toledo (20-8, 11-6 MAC) wins its first-round game Monday, it will advance to the MAC Tournament quarterfinals Wednesday.

Fans who are not season-ticket holders may purchase tickets online here, by phone or at the UT Athletic Ticket Office. One ticket is good for both games. The Joe Grogan Room will open for the games Monday beginning at 4 p.m.
