A big honor for the freshman.
The kid looks good.
Keaton Wagler was named Big Ten Freshman of the Week on Monday.
In his first two league games last week, Wagler averaged 21 points and 7.5 assists. He scored a career-high 23 points in the win over Ohio State, and followed that up with a double-double in the three-point loss to Nebraska.
David Mirkovic won the FOTW award the first two weeks of the season, so the Illini have claimed three out of the six awards so far.
Illinois is off this week before meeting Missouri in the Braggin’ Rights game next Monday, Dec. 22.
