Illinois Baseball honors Jones, Championship Team

This past weekend, the University of Illinois baseball program took some time to honor recently retired coach Richard “Itch” Jones as well as the 2005 Illinois Big Ten Championship team. 

About 200 people were in attendance for the program which included video clips of Jones’ tenure at Illinois.  After the reception, the 2005 team was honored during a timeout during the Illinois-Purdue basketball game.

The Illinois 2006 baseball season begins on February 24.
