I think you have your Carolina Credit
0:04
they they played 40 minutes it's always
0:06
going to be a 40-minute game we
0:07
understood that um I thought our guys
0:09
battled we gave we gave ourselves a
0:11
chance proud of the effort this is a a
0:14
heck of a field you know so we've got a
0:16
quick turnaround uh you know we need to
0:18
get prepared to play one of the best
0:19
teams in the country again
0:21
tomorrow all right any questions for
0:28
players now you got has played one of
0:31
the best teams in the country so close
0:33
and out a big league what do you take
0:34
from this game even though you lost yeah
0:36
just um what we're capable of um that we
0:40
can fight we can go together but you
0:42
know like coach said quick turnaround we
0:44
got to put together full 40 minutes but
0:46
obviously was a great effort but
0:47
disappointing
0:49
loss right here what was the biggest
0:51
difference that you saw from North
0:53
Carolina in the second half was it more
0:54
what they were doing or was it more
0:56
something that you guys maybe weren't
0:57
doing to the same level you were on the
0:58
first half yeah credit to them you know
1:01
they went on a roll they punched back
1:03
but you know I think us you know we got
1:04
to keep our composure just continue to
1:06
go together but you know got you got to
1:08
give them credit they fought back and
1:10
you know ended up going their
1:13
way anything else for
1:15
Nate all right thanks any questions for
1:18
Coach
1:25
Grant Anthony what did you see in in the
1:27
second half out of North Carolina that
1:29
they were able to Turn the Page like
1:31
that yeah I thought they they their
1:33
pressure their defensive pressure kind
1:34
of sped us up we we kind of lost our
1:36
composure there and made some some
1:38
questionable decisions you know they're
1:41
great in transition and so that allowed
1:44
them to get out of transition and uh you
1:46
know they were able to get a lot of
1:48
three-point plays you know uh transition
1:51
the free throw line uh those things I
1:53
thought really what's the
1:57
difference Anthony in the back here um
2:00
as you you know such a late uh
2:03
finisher what do you do as a coach to
2:05
keep your team focused physically
2:07
prepared for such a quick turnaround and
2:09
as you said a loaded field what is uh
2:12
what is your approach like for I'm going
2:14
try to get them out of here as quickly
2:15
as I can get back and get get our
2:16
scouting report and get ready for
2:18
tomorrow is there any uh opponent being
2:20
different aside uh given that you have
2:22
more time to prep for this game as
2:24
opposed to tomorrow do you change
2:25
anything with how you as a St prepare
2:27
for the tournament no we'll prepare the
2:28
same way
2:38
10 guys played in The Score first half
2:40
all 10 scored I mean it really was a
2:42
team effort to build you that league is
2:43
that a a sober line in
2:46
tonight um It's A Hard loss you know we
2:50
we felt like we we had chances to win
2:51
the game you know and so we got to be
2:53
able to to be resilient you know and put
2:56
our focus on the next game and that's
2:58
what I'm trying to do right now I mean
2:59
we really can't relive what happened
3:01
tonight um didn't go our way our guys
3:04
fought we we gave it everything we had
3:06
