Toledo has won 32 of its last 38 home games (including 19-3 vs. MAC opponents) dating back to and was 15-0 last season. The Rockets unbeaten record last year at home was their first since and just the fourth time in school history UT has accomplished the feat.

After experiencing just one losing home campaign (7-9 in ) in the previous 51 years, the Rockets notched 6-7, 4-11 and 4-12 win-loss marks for a combined (.318) ledger over the previous three years ( ) in Savage Arena. Prior to the season, UT had posted a 55-8 (.873) home record for a five-year period from and was (.823) on its homecourt from TALKING ABOUT UT S HOMECOURT ADVANTAGE (PART II)... Toledo s 18-game homecourt win streak that ended with an loss to Detroit on Nov. 25 was tied for the second longest unbeaten stretch in school history. The Rockets also won 18 in a row from Dec. 30, 1946-Dec. 30, During UT s streak, the Rockets average margin of victory was 13.9 ppg with just five games decided by less than nine points a win over Cleveland St. (Dec. 21), a buzzerbeating victory over Buffalo (Jan. 15), an triumph over Kent State (Jan. 26), an win over Bowling Green (Feb. 5) and an victory over Ohio (Feb. 12)....

In , the Rockets were 9-6 on the road (as well as 3-1 in neutral-site contests) to post their first winning road mark since a 7-6 ledger in UT s success on the road is a welcome departure from a four-year stretch ( ) that saw the Rockets win just one true road game out of 63 contests. Included during that period was a 47-game road losing streak that ended on Nov. 20, 2011 at Texas-Pan American. CLEANING THE GLASS Toledo ranked fourth in the MAC last year with a plus-2.4 rebounding margin, marking the first time that UT grabbed more rebounds than their opponents for an entire season since the campaign.

KOWALCZYK, BROWN BOTH FINALISTS FOR MID- MAJOR HONORS IN 2014 Head Coach Tod Kowalczyk was one of 15 finalists for the 2014 Hugh Durham award, while junior guard Julius Brown was one of 30 studentathletes considered for the 2014 Lou Henson Mid- Major Player of the Year award. Brown is also on the watch list for this year s Lou Henson Award. Brown ranks second in school history and eighth in Mid-American Conference annals with 591 assists. He needs four more assists to pass Kent State s Ed Norvell ( ) and move into seventh place on the MAC s career assist chart. BROWN S BUZZER-BEATER DRAWS NATIONAL ATTENTION Julius Brown s game-winning shot vs. Buffalo on Jan. 15 received national attention as it was ranked No. 7 on ESPN s SportsCenter Top 10 plays. In addition, it was ranked the No. 1 play of the day by FoxSports Live as well as the Dan Patrick Show. For a link to the shot, go to watch?v=p65z8ktn6h4&feature=youtu.be. A 5-10 junior guard, Brown knocked down the game-winning jump shot from about 19 feet as the horn sounded to give Toledo a victory over Buffalo. The play started under Toledo s own basket with 2.4 seconds remaining and the score tied. Matt Smith ran the baseline and hurled the ball downcourt to Nathan Boothe, who promptly passed it to Brown. Brown elevated over a defender and unleashed the game-winner, and then celebrated on the court with jubilant Rocket fans.

TOLEDO TABBED TO BE AMONG NATION S TOP 50 TEAMS IN Following its record-breaking 27 victories in , the Toledo men s basketball program received some national attention last spring. ESPN s Jeff Goodman included the Rockets in his Fab 50 for He wrote this about Toledo, Tod Kowalczyk brings back just about everyone except for (Rian) Pearson. Juice Brown is the star, but he has help from (Justin) Drummond, (J.D.) Weatherspoon and there s also size up front with (Nathan) Boothe. Goodman also identifies a Key Riser for each team and for the Rockets he tabs Jonathan Williams and write, Look for the freshman guard to slide into the starting lineup and replace Pearson. Williams should become one of the team s leading scorers. ROCKETS ADDING TALENTED QUARTET FOR CAMPAIGN Head Coach Tod Kowalczyk announced today the signing of 6-9, 210-pound forward Taylor Adway (Hazel Crest, IL), 6-11, 210-pound forward/center Luke Knapke (Minster, OH), 6-4, 195-pound guard Jaelan Sanford (Evansville, IN) and 6-3, 200-pound guard Chandler White (Fort Wayne, IN) to National Letter of Intents to attend the University of Toledo beginning in the academic year. Our recruiting class is very important for the future of our program, Kowalczyk said. We have three really good seniors on this year s team, and we felt we needed to bring in guys we thought were capable of giving us some pretty good minutes right away. I think we addressed a lot of needs. We needed to bring in a point guard as well as another perimeter player and a couple of post players as well. I feel really good about all four guys, because they re all very good studentathletes who fit our program s culture. Adway, who attends the same high school as Rocket senior guard Julius Brown, averaged 16.3 points, 7.9 rebounds and 4.6 blocks per game for Hillcrest High School to earn South Suburban League Most Valuable Player honors. Taylor is a long, athletic, skilled 4 man who I think has a tremendous amount of potential, Kowalczyk said. He s a guy that s multi-dimensional. He can step out and shoot, play off the dribble and score with his back to the basket. Knapke averaged 14.1 points and 7.5 rebounds per game as a junior to help Marion Local to a 20-5 win-loss mark. He earned first-team all-league, second-team all-district and honorablemention all-state accolades for his efforts. Luke is a skilled post player who is athletic and can step outside the three-point line, Kowalczyk said. I think the best part about Luke is that he possesses a tremendous feel for the game and is a very good passer. He obviously needs to gain some weight, but he has a chance to develop into a very good player. Sanford averaged 17.0 points per game as a junior en route to earning honorable mention all-state honors at Reitz High School. Jaelan is a point guard who is long, athletic and can really score, Kowalczyk said. I really like to have point guards that can score, and he reminds me a lot of (former Marquette standout) Travis Diener. He s just a tough-minded, basketball junkie. An honorable-mention all-state honoree, White averaged 15.0 points and 5.5 rebounds per game as a junior and surpassed the 1,000 career point mark as well. He also was a member of the Indiana Elite AAU team that won the Adidas Super 64 championship last summer. Chandler is an extremely physical combo guard who possesses a high basketball IQ, Kowlaczyk said. He can really defend, knows how to play and is developing into a more consistent shooter. PERFORMING WELL ON AND OFF THE COURT Toledo garnered the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) Team Academic Excellence Award last year. The Team Academic Excellence Award recognizes NCAA and NAIA men s basketball teams that earned a cumulative Grade Point Average of 3.0 or better throughout the academic year.

UT was the lone Mid-American Conference school to be included in the listing.
