Sycamores Take Down Nationally Ranked Illinois, 3-1

TERRE HAUTE, Ind. -- The Indiana State baseball team picked up its fourth-straight BIG 10 victory Tuesday night as the Sycamores defeated No. 25 Illinois, 3-1, at Bob Warn Field to improve to 20-2 on the season.

Sycamore pitching was outstanding throughout as head coach Mitch Hannahs rotated hurlers throughout the game in typical midweek fashion. In total, seven ISU pitchers saw action in the game with senior Tyler Ward tossing the final three frames in route to his fourth save of the season.

Illinois (17-5) picked up three of their five base hits of the game in the second inning.
