TOLEDO, Ohio - The University of Toledo football program shared the joy of victory with approximately 20 special needs students from Toledo Public Schools and around the area at its seventh annual "Victory Day" at the Fetterman Training Center on Saturday. Participating students met Rocket football players, ran drills on the field and heard their names announced over the public address system as they scored a touchdown.
Victory Day is an opportunity for special needs students to have their "moment in the sun" on the football field. Each student was partnered with a Toledo football player who served as his or her mentor for the day.
