WMU women’s basketball fell, 61-54, to Toledo on Wednesday to drop to 0-6 in MAC play and 1-7 overall.

The Broncos held a 38-31 lead late in the third quarter, but the defense lost the control it had over the Rockets in allowing 26 fourth quarter points and losing the lead.

With four minutes to play, WMU still held the lead at 52-49, but the Broncos failed to make a field goal in the last four minutes as Toledo went on a 12-2 run to earn the win. The Rockets made eight of 12 shots in the fourth quarter including going 3-4 at the three-point line.
