TOWSON, Md. – The teams have been selected and the coaches have been named. At 1:00 p.m. on Saturday, Tiger Bowl II will be played between the Black Team and the White Team. Tiger Bowl II is sponsored by Union Memorial Orthopedics and Sports Medicine.

Quarterbacks Coach Jared Ambrose will serve as the head coach of the Black Team while Defensive Coordinator Matt Hachmann will lead the White Team.

Brock Roberts will serve as Honorary Coach.

The Tiger Bowl, which attracted more than 1,000 fans last season, will be played at 1 p.m. in Johnny Unitas® Stadium. Admission to the Tiger Bowl is free and open to the public.

Tiger Bowl Saturday starts at 9 a.m. with a Youth Football Clinic that will be held at the Towson University Soccer Complex. The clinic is open to all eighth graders or younger and it will be conducted by the Tiger coaching staff.

At 11:30 a.m., the Tiger Football Alumni Game will be played on the Tigers' practice field next to the Soccer Complex.

Tiger Bowl II will conclude the Tiger football team’s Spring season. Coach Rob Ambrose and his staff have 42 letter winners and a very talented group of newcomers who will be hoping to impress the coaching staff during the Tiger Bowl. The Tigers return nine starters on offense and nine starters on defense from last year’s team.

The 2011 Tigers were known as the “Turnaround Tigers” as they were the most improved team NCAA FCS. One year after posting a 1-10 record, the 2011 Tigers went 9-3 and won their first Colonial Athletic Association championship. The Tigers, who were ranked ninth at the end of the season, reached the second round of the NCAA FCS playoffs.

After Tiger Bowl II is played, the Tiger men’s lacrosse team will honor their seniors when the Tigers host Drexel University in a vital CAA matchup in Unitas Stadium at 7:30 p.m.
