EVANSTON, Ill. -- The Cook County medical examiner says Northwestern women's basketball player Jordan Hankins died by suicide in her dorm room earlier this week.
The office released the results of an autopsy on Tuesday, a day after Hankins' body was found. She was 19.
Hankins was recruited out of Lawrence North High School in Indianapolis. She averaged 3.6 points in 11 games this season.
Coach Joe McKeown called the 5-foot-8 sophomore a "remarkably dynamic young woman." Because of the tragedy, Northwestern's game against Minnesota on Wednesday has been canceled.
