Will Riley's 31 points are the most by an Illinois freshman in their debut
Will Riley scored 26 of his 31 points in the second half to set an Illinois scoring record in a freshman debut and the Illini eased by Eastern Illinois 112-67NOVEMBER 5, 2024 • Associated Press
Catches fire in rout Riley posted 31 points (10-13 FG, 5-6 3Pt, 6-7 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one block over 25 minutes during Monday's 112-67 win over Eastern Illinois.
Impact Riley converted on 10-of-13 shots, closing with a whopping 31 points, seven rebounds, three assists and one block in his collegiate debut. The 6-foot-8 freshman was expected to be an impact player early on for the Fighting Illini as a five-star recruit out of high school, but this level of dominance was surely unexpected. Riley will look to stay hot in a matchup with SIU-Edwardsville on Friday.
