Boys basketball: Illineks dominate No. 5 PBL in home win, Renner closes in on career-scoring record

The Paxton-Buckley-Loda Panthers came into Kenney Gym Tuesday night ranked fifth in the area by The News-Gazette. But it was the host Illineks who played like one of the area's elite teams. Behind Mike Renner's 21 points, Chumar Williams' skillful game management, and clutch plays by a host of other Illineks, Uni defeated PBL handily 71-57. Renner needs just 3 points to tie the Uni boys career record of 1,372 held by his brother Al, a 2006 grad.
