Snow packed the ground, temperatures began to fall and everything was cold in Champaign including the Illini’s shooting. Thanks to a lockdown defensive showing from the Boilers, the best 3 point shooting team in the B1G was held to 15% from behind the arc and 32% from the field. Jeanae Terry led the way with 14 rebounds and winning the battle of the boards against Illinois 40-31 after leading the conference in rebounds.
Abbey Ellis who not only worked herself into the starting lineup has now proven to be our consistent offensive threat leading the team with 16 points and 4 rebounds.
