KALAMAZOO, Mich. - Toledo (14-7, 5-4 MAC) will travel to Mid-American Conference West Division rival Western Michigan (12-9, 5-4 MAC) on Wednesday, Jan. 31 looking to continue its momentum from a weekend victory over Bowling Green. Tip-off time is set for 7:00 p.m. in University Arena and will be streamed live on ESPN3. 

The Rockets are currently tied for third place in the MAC West Division standings with Eastern Michigan (9-11, 5-4 MAC) and the Broncos, four games behind leader Central Michigan (16-3, 8-0 MAC) and one contest below second-place Ball State (17-3, 6-3 MAC).

Senior Jay-Ann Bravo-Harriott tied a school record with eight three-point field goals and finished with a season-high 27 points to lead UT to a 77-67 victory over the arch-rival Falcons in the Stroh Center. 

Bravo-Harriott knocked down 8-of-14 shots from beyond the arc against BGSU to become only the fourth player in program history with eight triples in a game and the first since 2002.

The 2017 MAC Champions also benefited from 17 points by junior Olivia Cunningham, 16 from junior Mikaela Boyd and 10 by junior Kaayla McIntyre to end a mini two-game losing skid.

Boyd added a game-high 10 rebounds, a contest-best six helpers and one rejection to post her seventh double-double over the last nine games.

As a team, Toledo shot an impressive 50.0 percent (27-of-54) from the field, including 45.8 percent (11-of-24) from three-point land, and 70.6 percent (12-of-17) from the charity stripe to record its first conference road win.

The Rockets trailed 46-41 at the 1:59 mark in the third quarter when Bravo-Harriott buried the fifth of her eight triples to ignite a game-changing 15-0 run. The London, England native, who had not scored since the first period, added another trey during this pivotal stretch to turn a five-point deficit into a 10-point advantage, 56-46, with 7:33 left in regulation. It proved to be a lead the Midnight Blue & Gold would not relinquish. 

Toledo, which sports a 5-6 record away from home this season, is fueled offensively by the trio of McIntyre, Bravo-Harriott and Boyd, who are averaging 14.6, 12.1 and 11.7 ppg, respectively.

The Rockets will square off against a WMU team which has split its last eight contests, most recently dropping a 74-70 decision at MAC West Division leader CMU on Saturday. Breanna Mobley paced three Broncos in double figures with 15 points and eight caroms. 

Western Michigan, which is 7-1 at home this season, features three players scoring at least 9.5 ppg and is led by Mobley's 15.9 ppg and 8.5 rpg.

UT and WMU will meet for the first of two match-ups during the regular season and 77th time overall. The Rockets host the Broncos on Saturday, Feb. 17 at 2:00 p.m. in Savage Arena. 

Toledo leads the all-time series, 55-21, and has won the last seven contests against its division rival. UT also holds a 23-12 advantage in games played in University Arena.   

A year ago, the Rockets swept the regular-season series, claiming a 72-66 road victory (Feb. 8) and a 75-67 home triumph (Feb. 25). 

Following tomorrow's contest, Toledo will entertain MAC East Division frontrunner Buffalo (16-3, 7-1 MAC) on Saturday, Feb. 3. Game time versus the Bulls is scheduled for 2:00 p.m. in Savage Arena and will be streamed live on ESPN3.

UT and UB will meet for the second time this year and 28th time overall. The Rockets dropped an 87-69 road decision against the Bulls on Jan. 20 in Alumni Arena.

Toledo leads the all-time series, 22-5, including a perfect 11-0 ledger in games played at home with an average margin of victory of 14.2 ppg (73.6-59.4). A season ago, Toledo claimed an 85-63 home victory (Feb. 1). 

In conjunction with Saturday's home contest against the Bulls, UT will host the third-annual National Girls and Women in Sports Day.     National Girls and Women in Sports Day honors the accomplishments and hard work of female student-athletes in the classroom, in sports and in the community. The day will showcase UT's current female student-athletes, staff and coaches and thank them for all of their hard work.

The sports of soccer, volleyball, tennis and softball will be represented at the event on the concourses at Savage Arena between 12:30-2:00 p.m., prior to the start of the game. Those women's teams will each have their own station where they will sign autographs, host an activity and interact with fans.
