Illinois routs Northwestern behind 26-0 run
EVANSTON – Illinois coach John Groce liked how his team looked on offense. He liked the Illini’s defense even more.
The Illini went on a 26-0 run in their 62-41 victory over Northwestern on Sunday night and held the Wildcats to a season-low 25 percent shooting.
“Defensively, right now we’re just in the right position more,” Groce said. “We trust one another more. We cover for one another better. We understand that we want five guys guarding the basketball.”
