Toledo Women's Volleyball Schedule

TOLEDO, Ohio – The University of Toledo women's volleyball team announced its 2021 schedule on Wednesday.

"There are a lot of reasons to be excited about our schedule this year," head coach Jason Oliver said. "With matches against Power Five opponents and NCAA Tournament participants, I think we have a good mix of styles and venues that will challenge us.  I am excited to get after it and usher fans back into Savage Arena to cheer for their Rockets.

"It will be great to get back to a normal schedule. This year has been challenging to say the least. I know that everyone in the program is ready to hit the ground running and really show that we have navigated not only the past year well, but are ready to prove that we can take the next step in our growth as a program.

The Rockets' will open with an exhibition match at home against Findlay on Saturday, Aug. 21 before beginning their regular season at a tournament hosted by Virginia Tech the following weekend. Toledo will also play in non-conference tournaments at IUPUI (Sept. 3-4) and Morehead State (Sept. 17-18) while also hosting its own tournament (Sept. 10-11).
