The Toledo Rockets saw their season come to a shocking end in the Mid-American Conference men’s basketball tournament, but their season will not end in Cleveland, Ohio, as they secured a bid to the National Invitational Tournament by virtue of winning the MAC regular season championship.
Toledo will have the rare opportunity to host the bracket’s #1 seed, as Dayton will be unable to host the game due to the NCAA Tournament’s First Four being a traditional series in Dayton’s home court.
The Rockets finished their 2021-22 campaign 26-7 overall, with a 17-3 record in the MAC.
