After seeing his University of Toledo men’s basketball team erase a late eight-point deficit and get a game-winning basket with 1.4 seconds left Tuesday night at Buffalo, Tod Kowalczyk delayed a Wednesday lunch date/u200binterview by some 40 minutes.
“Gotta go to noon Mass first,” he said. “Especially after that game.”
That game represented Kowalczyk’s 100th win as UT’s head coach. Not bad for being midway through his sixth season. And especially not bad considering TK’s first campaign — the end of an ugly four-year Rocket tailspin — was a 4-28 nightmare.
The folks at Corpus Christi University Parish saw Kowalczyk regularly during that 2010-11 season, too.
