Early foul trouble and cold shooting from the Illineks proved too difficult to overcome as Uni fell Tuesday for the second game in a row. Senior Dan Lilly led all scorers with 24 points while also recording three rebounds, three assists, and four steals in the road loss to Arthur Okaw Christian. In JV action, Uni defeated AOC 30-28.

In a rematch against powerhouse Shiloh, the Illineks kept the game close until they were outscored 25-11 in the second quarter. Freshman Emma Hoyer led the team with 18 points, sophomore Jamie Blue scored 15, and senior Erika Belmont added 11. The girls travel to Villa Grove on Thursday for their next game.

"This week is a sad time in my thus-far short life," writes senior Anna Gooler in the second installment of StudProd Diary '09. "It's my very last tech week with you at Uni High. Ever! I think it is a good time to reflect on my four years participating in your marvelous show." Uni's annual showcase of student plays will be held 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday in the North Attic.
