good guys helping next nice people played returning role run step sure
We've got a pretty good returning nucleus of guys. Our young guys played a big role in helping us make a nice run in the tournament, and I'm sure some other people will step up and help us out next year.
adversity great job led positive seniors stayed stepping worked
Our seniors did a great job of stepping up for us. They worked through a lot of adversity and always stayed positive and led by example.
chase cushion good situation spread
During that third-quarter stretch, they got just enough of a cushion to spread us out. We had to chase them, and that wasn't a good situation for us.
ballgame excitement great
It was a great ballgame from an excitement standpoint.
defensive game good means ourselves possession premium
We like to think of ourselves as a pretty good defensive team. But there was a premium put on a every possession in a game like this and we had too many ineffective possessions when each one means so much.
win
To win those games, especially the way we did it, was real exciting.
