PS:  FYI... The Toledo Maroons were one of the very first teams in the NFL when it was formed back in the early 1920's.... and the Toledo Red Men were one of the very first teams in the NBA when it was formed... and the Toledo Mud Hens are the oldest minor league baseball team in America and the first to hired black baseball players wayyyy before Jackie Robinson's time, plus they employed the late great Casey Stengel as a Manager who went on the become even more famous for Managing the mighty NY Yankees during their glory years. As I said, the list of accomplished Toledoans is extremely long and varied. It would take a small book to just to list the names of Toledo's most accomplished people.
