When the Mid-American Conference schedule was unveiled, few would have predicted a first-place showdown between Toledo and Akron this late in the season.
The only thing preventing the Zips from being a unanimous preseason favorite was the MAC’s protocol of not allowing head coaches to vote for their own teams. The Rockets, meanwhile, were selected fourth after losing their top three scorers. But here they are again, threatening to win their fourth consecutive MAC championship.
The teams meet Friday night in a nationally televised prize fight at James A. Rhodes Arena in Akron (9 p.m., ESPN2).
