Illini's Beckman hits road for camps

On Sunday night, he stayed at a hotel in Chicago. On Monday, he spent the morning at Lincoln-Way East in Frankfort, in the afternoon at Mount Carmel in Chicago and slept the night at a hotel in Schaumburg. On Tuesday, he was at Barrington in the morning, Boylan in Rockford in the evening and slept in Peoria. On Wednesday, he held a camp at East Peoria and then was on the move to the St. Louis area.

On Thursday, he will close his trip with a camp at Edwardsville in the morning, one at O'Fallon in the evening and finally return home to Champaign.

"That's how we've done it before," Beckman said by phone while on the road on Wednesday. "It's the coaching profession. You work and you work hard. You do the things to have success."
