DENTON, Texas — Toledo and Richmond have never met in their long histories, and the Rockets last played in the state of Texas nine years ago.
So Wednesday night will present a unique element. It’s also a chance for both teams to write a happy note on the 2020-21 season that detoured to the NIT.
The Rockets and Spiders had NCAA tournament aspirations. A run in the NIT would help heal the wounds of conference tournament weekend.
Who: No. 2 seed Richmond (13-8) vs. No. 3 seed Toledo (21-8)
Where: UNT Coliseum, Denton
When: Wednesday, March 17, 7 p.
