Share

The Illini basketball team won the Big Ten Conference Tournament this weekend.

The victory over Wisconsin catapulted them to a 3 seed in the East Region in the NCAA tournament.

Head Coach Brad Underwood says preparations for the next game are underway and last year’s early exit in the Big Ten Tournament wasn’t on anyone’s mind.

Illinois will play Morehead State on Thursday in the opening round of the NCAA tournament.
