INDIANAPOLIS -- James Augustine, Deron Williams and Dee Brown combined for 37 points, 16 rebounds and 13 assists, and Brown hit two free throws with 22.8 seconds left to seal Illinois' 65-60 first-round NCAA tournament win over Western Kentucky on Thursday.

Big Ten player of the year Brian Cook, a senior, had his typical game with 17 points and 10 rebounds.

No. 4 seed Illinois (25-6) was the third higher-seeded team in Indianapolis to struggle Thursday, but like Marquette and Missouri in the Midwest Regional, the Illini escaped narrowly at the end.

No. 13 seed Western Kentucky (24-9) led 43-41 with 12:27 to go, but Williams gave Illinois the lead with a 3-pointer.

Arizona State 84, Memphis 71

OKLAHOMA CITY -- Ike Diogu scored 22 points, including 10 in a key second-half run, as Arizona State won in its first NCAA tournament appearance since 1995.

Diogu did it all against seventh-seeded Memphis (23-7), shooting 9-of-11 from the floor with a variety of post moves and even stepped out to hit a pair of 3-pointers in a 13-0 second-half run that opened up a 10-point lead for the 10th-seeded Sun Devils (20-11).
