CHAMPAIGN, Ill. - Illinois head coach Dan Hartleb announced Monday the addition of three Wednesday games to his team's schedule in an attempt to make up for games lost to poor weather earlier in the season. The Illini will face Robert Morris College April 18 at 6 p.m., Blackburn College April 25 at 6:30 p.m. and Greenville College May 2 and 6 p.m. All games will be at Illinois Field.

The games replace three of the four games Illinois has lost to bad weather so far this season. The Illini's contest against Vermont to open their Spring Trip was rained out, Illinois' planned two-game series with Western Michigan was cut to a single contest because of cold weather, and frigid temperatures also cut the Illini's four-game set with Ohio State to two games.

Additional Games
4/18 // Robert Morris // 6 p.m.
4/25 // Blackburn // 6:30 p.m.
5/2 // Greenville College // 6 p.m.
