Softball: What to know about Toledo

After the dust has fallen in Ohio's (24-18, 14-6 Mid-American Conference) bye week, Ohio has found itself tied atop the MAC with two other foes. Ohio will need a strong series against Toledo (18-22, 11-11 MAC) to keep up with Miami and Central Michigan.

The Rockets appeared to be a MAC favorite after winning three of their first four games, but a 1-6 stretch put the Rockets towards the bottom of the MAC standings. The Rockets are on an uphill climb in their roller-coaster season and now have an 11-11 record.
