IU leads Illinois 26-24 at halftime

In its rematch against Illinois, IU leads the Fighting Illini 26-24 at halftime.

The Hoosiers' points haven't come from the usual suspects. Redshirt sophomore forward Austin Etherington leads IU with seven points. Freshmen Troy Williams and Stanford Robinson have six points each.

Sophomore point guard Kevin "Yogi" Ferrell, freshman forward Noah Vonleh, senior forward Will Sheehey and graduate student guard Evan Gordon have four points on a combined 1-of-11 shooting.

Despite being held to two points in the first half, Vonleh is making an impact with his rebounding. He leads all players with eight rebounds.

Illinois guard Rayvonte Rice, who scored 29 points against IU on Dec. 31, leads all scorers with 12 points on 4-of-6 shooting. He made three of his four three-point attempts in the first half.

Rice, Joseph Bertrand and Tracy Abrams have two fouls each for Illinois.
