Toledo, Ohio – Head Coach Tod Kowalczyk announced on Wednesday that 6-4, 195-pound guard Spencer Littleson (Rochester Hills, Mich.) is transferring to the University of Toledo from Duquesne University. Littleson will become eligible to play for UT in the 2018-19 campaign and has three years of eligibility remaining.
Â
    "We're very excited to have Spencer join our program and are looking forward to helping him grow as a player and a person," Kowalczyk said. "Spencer is a very skilled guard that had a tremendous high school career. He's a guy that we followed closely the last couple of years and then we had a chance to see him play in person during our closed scrimmage last fall against Duquesne. He played exceptionally well and really fits the profile we're looking for."
Â
         Littleson earned first-team Associated Press Class A all-state honors and finished third in the voting for 2016 Michigan Mr. Basketball at Rochester Adams High School. He averaged 25.1 points, 6.3 rebounds and 3.2 assists and 2.0 steals per game with a 41.2 three-point field-goal percentage in leading the Highlanders to an 18-6 win-loss mark and the Class A regional championship. Littleson finished his career as the school record-holder for points in a season (502 as a senior), three-pointers in a season (72 as a senior), free throws in a game (19) and three-pointers in a career (161). As a junior, Littleson received honorable mention all-state accolades and averaged 19.5 points, 4.8 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 2.4 steals.
