Welcome back to another LIVE! Report (temporarily) from Dodds Athletic Center on the campus of Parkland College. The Illinois women's basketball team is back at Dodds for a 2 p.m. tipoff against Ohio following Friday night's season-opening 67-36 win against Chicago State.
It wasn't necessarily a pretty win against the Cougars — the Illini offense looked a little static despite some solid three-point shooting — but it was a win. And by 31 points.
Check out the highlights from last night's win over Chicago State! https://t.co/OGTkMyxCCC
