Toledo’s Mid-American Conference tournament hopes are on life support.
A disastrous 62-60 loss to last-place Miami of Ohio Wednesday dropped the Rockets to 3.5 games behind Kent State and Eastern Michigan, which are tied for seventh place in the MAC standings. Only the top eight advance to Cleveland.
“We didn’t do the little things that coach asked,” UT senior Tatyana Davis said. “That sums it up.”
Toledo got behind early and didn’t fully recover until the final seconds, losing for the sixth time in seven games.
“I think we have to do some soul searching at the beginning of games and get after it,” Rockets coach Tricia Cullop said.
