In Case You Missed It

Head Coach Bradley Davis' Take
In the first quarter they hit their shots, but we were fighting and in the second quarter we just melted into taking rushed shots and not really defending with any sense of urgency in the second quarter stretch and they pulled away a little bit. We were able to get back in there in the second, but the third quarter we lost that sense of urgency and I think that's where the youth comes in in terms of when things get tough, you have to get tougher.
