Abrams: Mr. Clutch  (Thursday, March 11, 2010)

Troy Gentle's weekly update on the five players headed Bruce Weber's way and the two players headed Jolette Law's way:

UI Women Live  (Friday, March 5, 2010)

FINAL: Ohio State 66, Illinois 55

Stunned by a ninth-seeded Illinois team in the 2008 Big Ten tournament quarterfinals, top-seeded Ohio State wasn't about to let it happen again.

Zone does in UI women  (Friday, March 5, 2010)

INDIANAPOLIS – When Ohio State coach Jim Foster was the boss at Vanderbilt, he had to figure out how to deal with the SEC's high-caliber athletes.

His choice was a zone defense.

'We went out fighting'  (Friday, March 5, 2010)

INDIANAPOLIS – On the night Illinois senior Jenna Smith nearly pushed Ashley Berggren from the top spot for the school's most heralded record, she was forced to deal with the reality that her most cherished goal will not be realized.

Smith will never experience the emotional utopia of playing in an NCAA tournament. Illinois' 66-55 loss to 10th-ranked Ohio State in a Big Ten tournament quarterfinal Friday ended those dreams.

UI women downplay bad Buckeyes vibes  (Thursday, March 4, 2010)

INDIANAPOLIS – Jolette Law's Illini women swear it's nothing personal against Ohio State.

There's no hidden agenda, no reason to hate the Buckeyes, nothing about them that gets under the skin of anyone wearing orange.

Game 29 preview: UI women vs. Indiana  (Thursday, March 4, 2010)

Staff writer Tony Bleill breaks down today's Big Ten tournament game against Indiana:

UI Women Live  (Thursday, March 4, 2010)

FINAL: Illinois 59, Indiana 53

INDIANAPOLIS -- It's not as if any confirmation were required. Jenna Smith's greatness is well-established, as much a part of daily life for the Illini as a trip to the training table or an early-morning workout.

Smith soldiers on  (Thursday, March 4, 2010)

INDIANAPOLIS – Through much of the second half of the season, Illinois senior Jenna Smith has downplayed the struggle she faced with hamstring and knee ailments.

A game like Thursday's – in which she had 23 points and 19 rebounds in a 59-53 victory against Indiana – makes a person wonder what she might accomplish if she was fully healthy.
