Toledo, Ohio – The Toledo Rockets will hold their annual Blue and Gold Spring Football Scrimmage at the Glass Bowl on Saturday, April 14. Kickoff is set for 12 noon. Admission is free.
 
Fans may enter the Glass Bowl via Gate A, located on the west side of stadium near the press tower. Fans can park in either Lot 9 or Lot 10.
 
Prior to the game, the Rockets will hold a football clinic for youth in 8th grade or younger from 10:00-11:00 a.m. Registration begins at 9:45 a.m. at the Glass Bowl. After the clinic, there will be activities such as poster making, corn hole, football toss and photo opportunities with the Toledo mascots and the 2017 MAC Championship trophy from 11:00 a.m.-noon on the West Concourse.
 
The scrimmage will use a running clock and is expected to last about one hour. All kicks will be dead balls — no blocks, no returns.
 
Former Rocket greats and current NFL players Michael Roberts (Detroit Lions) and David Fluellen (Tennessee Titans) will serve as honorary coaches.
 
The Rockets were 11-3 in 2017, defeating Akron in the MAC title game. Toledo returns 14 starters, plus two other starters who missed most of 2017 due to injury. UT returns three All-MAC wide receivers – seniors Cody Thompson and Jon'Vea Johnson, and junior Diontae Johnson – to an offense that averaged 36.4 points per game last season.

The 2018 season features seven home contests, including matchups with Miami (Fla.) on Sept. 15 and Bowling Green on Oct. 6. Season tickets can be purchased online or by calling 419-530-GOLD (4653).
