  "account": "Champaign, Ill. (AP) — Cearah Parchment led the charge for the No. 23 Illinois women's basketball team with 18 points and four three-pointers in a lopsided 99-28 victory over Southern on Saturday.\n\nParchment shot efficiently from the field, converting seven of her nine attempts, including four from beyond the arc. The Fighting Illini (2-0) showcased their dominance in multiple categories. They shot 57% from the field, drained 11 of their 24 three-point attempts, and outrebounded Southern 49-22. A crucial aspect of their success was their ability to convert 17 offensive rebounds into 25 second-chance points.\n\nThe margin of victory was staggering, with Illinois outscoring their opponent by an astonishing 71 points. The Jaguars (0-2) managed to score eight points, led by Zaria Hurston's eight-point effort. The Illini's fast start was evident, as they scored the first 12 points of the game. By halftime, they had a commanding 46-9 lead.",
