How Blakes’ Near Triple-Double Propelled Vanderbilt to a Stunning Sweet 16 Breakthrough After 14 Years
Parchment gave Illinois its only lead on the opening bucket before Vanderbilt took the lead for good with seven straight points. Parchment hit a jumper, and Aaliyah Guyton added a layup to pull the Fighting Illini within 7-6.
That was as close as Illinois would get as Vanderbilt finished the first quarter scoring the final nine points for a 21-8 lead. The Fighting Illini missed 11 consecutive shots and 13 of their final 15 in the quarter. Illinois outscored Vanderbilt 17-15 in the second quarter with Vanderbilt up 36-25 at halftime.
