MAC Women’s Basketball Final Round Preview: Toledo Rockets vs. Northern Illinois Huskies

The 4th seed Northern Illinois Huskies take on the 6th seed Toledo Rockets. The Huskies score a league leading 85.6 points per game. The Rockets only give up a league best 61.3 points per game.

Scouting the Rockets

The Rockets have been a solid defensive team all season, but really started locking teams down the second half. This, plus a bump in their scoring, has helped them win 10 of the last 12.

Toledo has several good forwards that can work the ball inside.

Freshman guard Mariella Santucci has found her shooting touch in the tournament.
