What I’m really proud of is how our young players stepped up, battled, and fought through some tough situations. There’s a big difference between just being out there and actually rising to the challenge, and our kids grew as the game went on. Even though the scoreboard didn’t go our way, I truly believe we got better as a team Friday night.”
