This weekend was the end of the Big Ten men's basketball regular season. While elsewhere in the conference Iowa surprised Purdue with a strong victory, IU lost to Illinois, which was completely expected. The latter brought to a close my IU basketball photo career, as I will be on the way to Japan during IU's game in the Big Ten tournament. (Courtney Deckard will be covering the game instead.)
