Northwestern defeated UIC 83-74 Tuesday night. Junior forward Nick Martinelli scored 27 points and pushed the Wildcats (2-1, 0-0 Big Ten) through tense final minutes over the Flames (2-1, 0-0 MVC). Graduate student guard Jalen Leach also scored 16 for the ’Cats. The team has battled through its first few games without senior guard and captain Brooks Barnhizer, who has been sidelined due to injury. NU will take on Eastern Illinois Friday at Welsh-Ryan Arena.
