Rockets Share Joy of Victory With Area Special Needs Students

TOLEDO, Ohio - The University of Toledo football program shared the joy of victory with approximately 30 special needs students from around the area at its sixth annual "Victory Day" at the Glass Bowl on Saturday. Participating students met Rocket football players, ran drills on the field and heard their names announced over the public address system as they scored a touchdown.

Victory Day is an opportunity for special needs students to have their "moment in the sun" on the football field. Each student was partnered with a Toledo football player who served as his or her mentor for the day.
