CHAMPAIGN - The Illini don't exactly have the most NCAA Tournament experience of all the teams in this year's field, but the Illini seniors are on a mission to make this dance last as long as possible.

Only four players on the Illinois roster have NCAA Tournament experience.  They were part of the team that won one game in the Big Dance before losing to Kansas two years ago.  The seniors are thrilled to be back in the field, but they're not satisfied just being there.
