Ohio will look to stop its four-game losing streak this weekend when it hosts Mid-American Conference foe Toledo for three games at Bob Wren Stadium. The Bobcats lost ground in the MAC after they were swept by Northern Illinois last weekend, and a series win will be pivotal if Ohio wants to pull closer to a MAC Tournament spot.
