For the first time in program history, the Toledo women’s basketball team will play Iowa State.
And what a matchup it is. Not only is it an NCAA tournament game, but there are storylines galore, with Iowa State head coach Bill Fennelly’s connection to Toledo, as well as assistant coaches Jodi Steyer, Latoja Schaben, and Billy Fennelly.
It’ll be a reunion of sorts for the four of them and Toledo head coach Tricia Cullop, who regularly communicates with the Iowa State staff.
The game will take place in Knoxville, Tenn., at Thompson-Boling Arena, one of the most historic women’s college basketball venues.
