Rockets still eager after short opener

FAYETTEVILLE -- After opening the season at home against Stony Brook, the Toledo Rockets bring a 0-0 record to Little Rock for Saturday's game against Arkansas.

The Rockets and Seawolves weren't able to complete their game Thursday night because of lightning and thunderstorms, so it officially was canceled after the second quarter with Toledo leading 16-7.

Toledo proposed finishing the game Friday, but Stony Brook -- which still received a $325,000 guarantee -- declined because it would have meant driving 623 miles back home to New York rather than flying on a chartered airplane.

So there was no winner or loser, and the game statistics don't officially count.
