No Frazier, no win for young Illini

CHAMPAIGN — Someone was going to have to take on a bigger role Tuesday night for Illinois.

No Trent Frazier changes the dynamic for the Illini, and with the sophomore guard sidelined because of a concussion suffered in Monday's practice, the Illini had to turn to someone else.

Ayo Dosunmu did his part. The Illinois freshman guard set a new career high with 25 points, but it wasn't enough for the Illini during their 88-80 loss to Georgetown in front of 14,656 fans at State Farm Center.

"Trent is one of the best defensive players we have on the team," junior guard Andres Feliz said.
