“In the historic 100th year of UT’s football program, the
Rockets brought home the MAC Championship,” said Senator
Brown. “Their first-place finish is the measure of an
outstanding collective effort by a gifted group of athletes
and coaches. They have made Toledo and Ohio proud.”
In December of 2017, the UT football team won their first
MAC Championship since 2004 by defeating the Akron Zips
45-28. The Rockets boasted a 7-1 conference record and
finished the season 11-3 overall.
“I am pleased to join my friend Senator Edna Brown in paying
tribute to the Toledo Rockets MAC Championship football
team,” said Senator Gardner. “The Lucas County Senate
delegation salutes the Rockets through our Senate resolution
on a great season.”
