Illinois is the No. 4 seed in the 2026 Big Ten Tournament. The 11th-ranked Fighting Illini will open play at the United Center in Chicago in the quarterfinal round on Friday at approximately 1:30 p.m. CT on Big Ten Network.

Illinois will face the winner of Thursday's third-round game between No. 5 seed Wisconsin and either No. 12 Washington or No. 13 USC.

Illinois owns a record of 24-7 overall, notching the program's most regular-season victories in the last 20 years. Illinois was Big Ten runner-up at 15-5, tying the second-most conference wins in school history. Head Coach Brad Underwood now owns the top three, and five of the top nine, winningest B1G seasons in program history. This marks the fifth time in the last seven years that Underwood has led the Illini to a top-4 Big Ten Tournament seed and bye into the quarterfinals.

 

URBANA, Ill. – No. 11 Illinois improved its winning streak to eight matches, taking down Washington, 4-0, on Sunday at Atkins Tennis Center.

During that eight-match stretch, the Illini have won the doubles point in each of those contests. That trend continued for the Orange and Blue as they grabbed the point with wins on Courts 2 and 3. William Mroz and Hayden Jones got the action started with a 6-2 win over Daniel Bien and Nikola Plavsic of Washington. Zach Viiala and Sasha Colleu would soon follow with a 6-3 victory to secure the 1-0 lead for the Illini.
