RECAP remaining. Abrams facilitated the offense, scoring 11 points to key Illinois’ comeback — trailing by five at the half and 13 with 16:13 remaining in the game. Illinois head coach John Groce didn’t blame Abrams.
* denotes approximate start time
“We got the ball right where we wanted. Tracy’s made big plays for us all year,� Groce said. “His ability to lead and be vocal is a big key to our team. I just told him it’s not about that last play. There were a lot of other plays in the game.� There were other changes that could’ve been made to change the outcome. Rayvonte Rice’s shot with 1:12 remaining and a
63-61 Illini lead could’ve swished through rather than rimming out . Illinois could’ve called a timeout instead of forcing Abrams to shoot an off-balance 3-pointer as the shot clock went off with 22 seconds remaining. With 19 seconds remaining, Illinois could have stayed in a zone, like they had played all day, instead of switching to a man-to-man defense to stop Nik
Stauskus from passing it inside to an open Jordan Morgan. Stauskus could have shot the ball instead of passing. But none of those things happened. And Illinois lost 64-63, falling out of the Big Ten Tournament and likely being relegated to the NIT.

High jumper Bloch-Jones places 14th at NCAAs BY MUBARAK SALAMI CONTRIBUTING WRITER
Freshman high jumper Kandie Bloch-Jones represented the Illinois women’s track and field team this weekend at the NCAA Indoor Championships. Bloch-Jones, the team’s lone representative in the meet, placed 14th in the high jump. The fi nish earned her secondteam All-America honors. “It was an honor to compete at NCAAs as freshman,� BlochJones said. “It was a great experience and hopefully the next seven times I go, the environ-
ment won’t be new to me.� Bloch-Jones has been consistent all year and has begun her career on a strong, positive note. “Kandie has really had an unbelievable start to her career,� head coach Ron Garner said. “We’re really proud of her and she will only continue to get better.� Bloch-Jones grabbed a conference title in the high jump on March 1 at Big Ten Indoor Championships. She fi nished her indoor campaign with a strong performance. She fi nished the meet with a
performance of 5 feet, 9 inches, which was below her season- and personal-best mark of 5 feet, 11 1/2 inches. She posted her best at the Tyson Invitational on Feb. 14. Georgia’s Leontia Kallenou won the event with a performance of 6 feet, 1 inch. “I wasn’t happy with the way I performed,� Bloch-Jones said. “I’ll be able to learn from this experience and improve upon my performance next time.� Next time will come in two weeks, when the team will travel to Arizona to compete in the Arizona State Invite, the fi rst meet
of the outdoor season. Until then, Bloch-Jones will use this time off to rest and focus on technical work as she hopes to continue her success. “Next for me is to keep improving, I need to work on my mechanics in order to get 6 feet,� she said. “My goals for outdoor are to be Big Ten champion and to compete at nationals and hopefully do better than I did this time.�
