00:00Yeah, I just thought we showed great will in the game.

00:03I thought, you know, we really hung in there in the third.

00:07I thought that was the key to the game because they really had the wind at their back.

00:11We had some deflating plays.

00:12It was an easy game to give up on, but we kept it within striking distance, 8-10.

00:18And then we were able to close in the fourth.

00:20I thought Lou, in particular, just set an unbelievable tone defensively in the fourth quarter.

00:26That was kind of contagious, but his energy and he was just on it and was very impressive.

00:33Got great performances from a lot of guys, but I thought he really kind of swung the game with his approach when he went back in the game.
