Miles Scott | Sr., Football | Major: Health Communication
Illinois defeated Northwestern, 20-13, on Saturday evening, capturing the Land of Lincoln trophy in its final game of the regular season. Nearly half a foot of snow fell at Gies Memorial Stadium, the most for any home game in Illinois history. The Illini defense came up with four takeaways on the night, highlighted by a pair of second half interceptions from Miles Scott, the first game of his career with multiple interceptions. His picks were the sixth and seventh of his career and secured the Illini's eighth win of the season.
Scott, from Dolton, Ill., graduated in May with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology and is pursuing a graduate certificate in health communication.
