Bowling Green, Ohio - The Bowling Green State University Department of Athletics is proud to announce that the 2008-09 BGSU men's basketball team will be recognized at halftime of Saturday's game against Toledo. The 2008-09 team won the MAC regular season championship and is the only BGSU men's basketball team since 2002 to advance to either the NCAA Tournament or the NIT.
The 2008-09 team went 19-14 overall and finished 11-5 in Mid-American Conference play, earning the No. 1 seed for the MAC Tournament and the league's automatic bid to the NIT. That squad was just 7-6 beginning MAC play and then lost three of its first four conference games.
