TOLEDO, Ohio — The University of Toledo men's basketball program will open and close its Mid-American Conference campaign inside Savage Arena, the league office announced as part of its schedule release on Wednesday. UT will open its league slate on Jan. 5 vs. Ball State before closing its regular-season schedule with home matchups against Western Michigan (Mar. 5) and Eastern Michigan (Mar. 8).
"I think the MAC is going to be really competitive and strong from top to bottom again this season and there are a number of teams that will challenge to win the league title," Head Coach Tod Kowalczyk said.
