Mobile, Ala. - The Toledo Rockets completed their first practice Wednesday afternoon in Mobile in preparation for Saturday's game vs. Appalachian State at the 2017 Dollar General Bowl. The Rockets practiced at UMS-Wright Prepatory School for about 90 minutes before returning to their hotel.
Head Coach Jason Candle said the practice was a good start for the Rockets (11-2), who have not played since defeating Akron for the MAC Championship on Dec. 2
"We had a chance to acclimate ourselves to warmer weather," said Candle. Highs in Mobile reached the low 70's on Wednesday, with high humidity and scattered showers.
