Episode 4 - Bracket Busted!

SPEAKER_01 0:13

Okay, welcome to In the Crease, where we like to discuss uh D two Lemenz la Cross coast to coast. I'm your host, Kevin Sentstrom, and I'm joined as always by Danny Moran. Mr. Moran, how are you tonight?

SPEAKER_00 0:26

I'm doing well, Mr. Sentstrom. How are you doing tonight?

SPEAKER_01 0:29

I am very good, very good here in Northern Virginia. So um we said last podcast that we're really excited about the Division II NCA tournament. And let me tell you, that did not disappoint last weekend whatsoever. But before we get into the games, I have to make a confession to you that I had to change my culinary diet starting Friday night because I was eating crow all weekend.

SPEAKER_00 0:58

Ha! And while you were eating crow, I had a big plate of humble pie.

SPEAKER_01 1:04

Well, at least you had dessert, my friend. Let me tell you. So think about it. Let's start off with uh the Tampa Mount Olive game. We both thought that Mount Olive would take Tampa, Tampa dominates.

SPEAKER_00 1:16

Oh boy, was I wrong on that one.

unknown 1:19

Woo!

SPEAKER_01 1:20

And then Seton Hill, St. A's, right? We talked about St. Anselm and Seton Hill. We both thought, all right, St. Anselm, really good team. They had a good season, but Seton Hill maybe a little bit too much. Wrong again.

SPEAKER_00 1:34

Woo! Oh for two, swing and a miss.

SPEAKER_01 1:38

Two five seeds win, which will tell you how great actually the weekend was in lacrosse tournament, right? We kind of talked about this a little bit, you know. You've talked about this before any given Sunday, and we said how close the matchups could be in the in the north and the south. Well, that just shows it right there, right?

SPEAKER_00 1:55

Oh, absolutely. I mean, yeah, those five seeds came to play. That's hands down, you know. Tampa, wow. Woo.

SPEAKER_01 2:04

And then and then another one I saw, the another one, and we'll get into the Tampa game a little bit against Mount Olive. I've got some notes from when I watched it, but um the other thing that uh the the last game I'd say that I, you know, was um, if not a swing and a miss, I probably just didn't even swing at it properly. We both kind of looked at the the Wingate U Indie game, and we were pretty definitive that uh Wingate was gonna win. And UIndy did not let that happen. They came, they they are a good team, and they showed it uh against uh Wingate.

SPEAKER_00 2:41

Yeah, Wingate was lucky to get away with that one. U Indy came to play there. That was a good game.

SPEAKER_01 2:46

Yeah, that was a great game. All right, so let's start off with uh the first round on Friday. Um, I know you were traveling for your son's graduation. Did you get to watch any of that? Or if not, I can kind of share, let you chime in after my notes.

SPEAKER_00 3:01

I caught bits and pieces, like I said.

SPEAKER_01 3:04

Well, I was traveling, so it was I was catching bits and pieces as I was trying to work, and then I was working, and then I had to go back and rewind and watch the game. But let me I'll start it off and you chime in as you see it. This is just some notes that I that I wrote. So let's start off with the Tampa Mount Olive game. My first written words on this piece of paper in in large exclamation points was holy crap.

SPEAKER_00 3:31

Well, yeah, you know, I guess you know, I think I think people have been talking about Tampa all year, you know, they they didn't play anybody, they was just in conference, you know. I I think it bothered them. I I really do. And I, you know, that they came with all guns of blazing. Yeah, they did.

SPEAKER_01 3:52

And the other I'll I saw a tweet from Coach Jorgensen of St. Leo saying, now who's talking about uh the Sunshine State Conference being weak? And and I will admit, I think we got the whole, just like they talk on D1 about Big Ten, right? Like how good are they really played in conference, and that's all we had to go with. Well, that conference isn't weak because if you look at teams like Lynn and Rollins and how well they fought, and and you know, even St. Leo's, you know, always was was competitive, not so much against Tampa this year, but now we kind of know why, right?

SPEAKER_00 4:25

Well, well, you know, Tampa's always been the big dog in that in that conference, and we know that, and they've been that way for a few years. I mean, the conference isn't really what it's not the SAC, it's not the NE10. And if you ask me, that conference isn't even, you know, like where Lyndon would. Those that that conference, they put out some good squads this year, you know, three, four-ranked teams at one point. So uh Coach Jurgensen's allowed to, you know, preach for the Summerside State College. As he should. Oh, and as he should, exactly.

SPEAKER_01 5:02

But uh, but but uh 20 24 to 8. That was just a total domination. I mean, some of the things I wrote, I mean, not only did they execute flawlessly on on offense, but it really appeared to me that um their defense, Tampa's defense played so well that Mount Olive could not even get inside. They could not get close. They had to shoot from the outside, they got some goals on transition, but they really couldn't they could not dictate offensive play. Tampa was just too strong.

SPEAKER_00 5:33

Well, we spoke about Mount Olive being a really good defensive team, you know, one of the better defensive teams in the country. Unfortunately, their offense struggled this year. They struggled against some teams, you know, Colorado Mesa took them into overtime. They, you know, they even though they had a pretty tough schedule, but I I honestly thought because of the harder schedule, I thought Mount Olive would have been a little, yeah. I just felt that they were more seasoned, ready for a playoff type match. And boy, like I said, there's that first big gulp of humble pie.

SPEAKER_01 6:08

Right. And then Tampa, we'll get to it in a little bit. Tampa game against Lenora Ryan was also phenomenal, and and they they showed their their medal there as well. But let's let's move on to St. Anselms. Easier for me to say St. A's and Seton Hill, right? So this one uh here's my notes from this. Well, first of all, the the first half stats were pretty close, and even if you look at the final total stats, they were fairly close across a few differences there. But my first big note was goalie war. So this was against Kevin Moe from Ceton Hill, who was the conference goalie of the year, and CJ Hart was goalie of the year.

SPEAKER_00 6:46

And we talked about CJ last week. We know that he's just a flat out beast.

SPEAKER_01 6:53

Yeah, no, so what's funny is I said goalie war. If you look at the saves at the end of the end of the game, CJ had nine. Kevin Mo had 25 saves. This is right near the end of the game. Actually, it was in overtime. You know, we talked about um the ragu of pace making that those bang bang. Kevin Moe had the same thing in overtime. Yeah, not two two saves that you just mind-boggling one after another, that you know, from a rebound, and he saved the second one. And unfortunately for him, because he had a phenomenal game, and CJ Hart made the he didn't have the the stats for saves, but he saved the right ones at the right time for the win. And Kevin Moe let one get by him. That's my other note. My other note was in here early in the game. I I mentioned I wrote down uh the Larson twins, which are freshmen, they're the two freshmen on brothers on Saint A's team. And who had the winning goal but Noah Larson in overtime?

SPEAKER_00 8:05

Freshman getting that win. You know, that that was uh that was a statement win. You know, that's a great program win for Saint A's. I mean, you know, they they've been battling all year. Like I said, we talked about them in the first couple of podcasts. We said, you know, maybe they weren't so battle-tested, and then Tullay got into their conference championship, and then you know, and then here they are in the NCAAs, and now they're playing one of the top dogs in Steeton Hill, yeah, who won the top offenses in the country, putting up 18-19 goals a game, you know, all Americans all over the field again. And uh, you know, between Kevin Moe and CJ Hart, you had, you know, it's great when you have two great goalies in playoff play. It makes it that much more exciting.

SPEAKER_01 9:00

And yeah, it was it was crazy to watch. I mean, just their athleticism uh uh between the the pipes there was was amazing. Um, yeah, so those are my my my major notes uh for those those two games. Um a lot of fun to watch.

SPEAKER_00 9:17

We're both wrong about both yeah. You know, let's not go over that again, but uh oh we picked Cill and Saint A's came into play, and you know, we we picked Mount Olive and and Tampa just rolled all over them.

SPEAKER_01 9:32

So so so yeah, so that proves once again that we are not professionals uh at all. No, no, like you guys who just talk a lot, right?

SPEAKER_00 9:43

Right, right. But that's okay, you know, that you know, we've been watching all these games all year, you know. We have the eye candy, we see what we see, but we were wrong about the Tampa Mount Olive. I mean, I was really wrong about that game. And you know what? Congratulations to Tampa, without a doubt. They they proved that they could play, and then you know, in the Lenore Ryan game, as I know we're gonna get into in a moment, but you know, they're a good squad. You can't take that away from them. I know that they had their only conference, and you know, they only played in conference, and we spoke about how maybe the conference wasn't, but and we spoke about maybe Tampa was, you know, they struggled against Rollins, they struggled against Lynn a little bit, but you know what, those are conference games. So, and and I think when you're in conference, you play a little harder, and you know, Lynn showed up against Tampa, and Rollins showed up against Tampa, but Tampa really showed up in the NCAA in that first round, and they were just without a doubt.

SPEAKER_01 10:50

And and so we can move on. We'll talk about the South Region quarterfinals first because those games both were thrillers, both wins in the final seconds of of the game. Uh, you know, uh Lenore Ryan Tampa in overtime and wingate Undy with you know eight seconds left in in regulation. So let's start off and keep the Tampa Tampa wagon uh moving there.

SPEAKER_00 11:20

So here's Tampa. They come up from you know, they come up from Tampa, Florida, and they're in North Carolina. They take care of business in the first round. Now they have to face a really, really good Lenore Ryan squad, a really good squad. And what happened in that first quarter? Tampa, what would they what was it, 7-2 at the end of the first?

SPEAKER_01 11:46

7-2.

SPEAKER_00 11:47

Everybody was like, uh-oh, Tampa's here. And then Lenore Ryan just kind of kept just playing their game, just chipping, chipping, playing good defense, causing a turnover here, then boom, get a score. It kind of went back. It was a game of runs.

SPEAKER_01 12:08

Yeah, that's exactly what I was gonna say. It was definitely a game of runs after 7-2. I mean, um, you know, it was it was uh it it there was a game of game of runs again in the second quarter, and and Lenore Ryan made it close 7-5, and then it was 10-5 at the half, right? And then next thing you know, it's it it's it's tied up uh 12-12, and then it was back and forth, right? Interestingly, um the probably the one um the the a little bit of the difference, I think, in in some of the stats is that uh and really where you kind of saw why Tampa was so strong to begin with was shots on goal. They they made 10 out of 13 uh in the in the first half, and and uh uh Lenore Ryan only made five of 14. Now they changed that, they got that going. But the other thing was turnover. So only one caused turnover by Lenore Ryan and five by Tampa. So that kind of made up the the difference in that in that first half. But then, you know, in the second half, you know, it was um like I said, it got tied at 1212, and then it was back and forth. And what was interesting when I was watching it um was really, you know, when Lenora Ryan started making their run to tie it, how much I think probably the crowd helped Lenore Ryan. I mean, they're on their home turf, and uh it was deafening, you know, deafening, um, even through my screen.

SPEAKER_00 13:50

I think they said there was 800 people in the stadium for the Lenore Ryan Tampa game, and predominantly Lenore Ryan people, and it was loud there, and it's definitely a home field advantage. It's there's no doubt, there's no doubt it's a home field advantage.

SPEAKER_01 14:09

Yep, yep. Um, so you know, just it those were kind of some of my quick takeaways of that. I mean, of course, you gotta give the um a shout out to Colt McCracken, who uh had the the winning goal, you know, at the the end of overtime. But the fact that it went to overtime too just made it even more thrilling, you know.

SPEAKER_00 14:30

You know, it's playoff lacrosse, and these kids are fighting for their lives. Some of them are seniors, you know. Uh Lenore Ryan, you had Dickerson, and and you know, you have Ben French on the other side, and these kids, this is it. You know, this is it's over for these guys. So if they leave nothing, they leave everything on the field. And you know, that's as good as a lacrosse game as you can get. You know, without a doubt. Well, Tampa goes out on a 7-2 run. I was like, oof, here we go. You know, you know, this team's been like a like a sleeping bear, you know, just you know, listen to Tampa.

SPEAKER_01 15:06

It's like they brought the chainsaw out, right? And they were just they were just mowing them down, and you thought, okay, there's no no going back. But then just slowly but surely, like you said, and it it was chipping, but it was also, like we said, a game of runs, but it went back and forth still, right? And that's what was really interesting.

SPEAKER_00 15:21

But Lenore Ryan never tried to do, they never tried to, they didn't try to push. Yes, they didn't try to push in bad situations, they just kept playing their game, you know, and moving the ball with Dickerson and Moffitt and those guys.

SPEAKER_01 15:39

And Brian Reese had an unbelievable game, too.

SPEAKER_00 15:43

Yes, yes, he had a great game.

SPEAKER_01 15:44

Bryce Reese. I'm sorry, Bryce Reese. I know it's Bryce.

SPEAKER_00 15:47

And and like I said, that's that's that's that's NCAA lacrosse. And we're talking at the division two level, and you know what? Nobody is talking about division two, and nobody. I I think I read a small little paragraph about the weekend, and that was it. And there's big articles and videos and podcasts on D3 and D1, and not much about D2, and this might have been the most one of the most exciting playoff weekends in a long time, and it's also said, and it was sad for a reason, too. Yeah, because on the northern side, we had we lost Mercy, right?

SPEAKER_01 16:32

Mercy, Mercy Hearst game. So, first of all, to the Mercy team, coaches, staff, the mercy players, families, the fans, just a sad situation that they and it was on the women's side too. Both were out of the tournament because of COVID uh uh testing, covet test testing positive, right? For COVID reasons. And and it's a darn shame that that's the way the season has to end after they put so much into it. And and that uh that Mercy Mercy Hurst game was just gonna be phenomenal.

SPEAKER_00 17:04

Oh, that that would have been a great game. I was really looking forward to watching that game. And I know we kind of picked Mercy Hurst in that one, but my heart broke when I heard that because, like we talked about in the last podcast, what a strange year it was. Remember, they're kids, they're 18, 19, 20 years old. They're still kids, and they're at school, but they have to be socially distant. They can't be in large groups, they're not going to the chicken wing place and hanging out. And, you know, they're kind of with each other, and it's like a different type of year, you know, not too many, not too many in-person classes. And we talked about that whole thing. So now here you have you're a head coach of a Division II lacrosse team, you've gone through all the protocols of trying to keep your family safe, and these kids that you put entrusted with their from their families and keep them safe. And not only that, you ball out all year, and you beat the number three team in the country in the middle of the season, and you ball out. You get to the NCAA tournament, and you get to just it's like getting the rug just pulled right from under your feet, and and my heart just broke because I I know some people whose kids are on mercy, and I know what Coach Levine does up there, he's a great coach. So many they love him up there. And my heart just broke. And just know that the in the crease crew here, um, our hearts broke for you guys.

SPEAKER_01 18:45

Yeah, without a doubt. Um, you know, like you said, so some of those players don't get another chance. They're their their their career, um, college career has ended. Um, and so yeah, you're right. Saying that that's basically the truth. Uh, our our hearts broke. Um, but let's let uh before we move on, I just want to mention um before we go on to the um Saint A's Lemoine game, uh, I just want to mention you said something about getting no D2 love. So I was watching the um on YouTube the from the uh US lacrosse magazine, the the show uh yard sale with you know Quint Kesenich, uh Anish Schroff, and Paul Carter. And so they were talking about how at the the Moyel Day weekend Paul Carcater was gonna cut Anise Schroff's hair for for charity. And Quint Kesenich said, You should do it on Sunday, and we'll get a big crowd and we'll televise it. And I wrote I actually wrote in their notes section comments. I'm like, hey, Sunday is the D2 final and D three final. Show some love for those those two divisions. They haven't answered me yet because they're professionals and I'm not, but that's okay.

SPEAKER_00 20:02

Yeah, yeah. Those guys, um, yeah. Uh, like I said, the D2 is not getting love. And it it was a special year here, you know, in Division II, and we saw quite a lot of uh really good things, you know, the Peach Bell first conference, and just you know, we we we watched teams like Anderson come out of nowhere, and we watched teams west of the Mississippi make noise nationally. You had Linda Wood and Maryville and Colorado Mesa. So many great things happened in D2. And now, you know, like I and even with Mercy, they got all this far to have it pulled out from COVID. I know a lot of teams had cancellations. Uh, you know, they missed a game here or two games there, and you know, it was like a different type of year, but you know what? We all got through it, everybody kind of got through it, and it was a great season in Division II, and we're we're ready for one heck of a weekend coming up.

SPEAKER_01 21:03

Yeah, it's we're we're in the thick of it, and it's it's great. So um, so the Lemoyne uh Saint A's uh quarterfinal um ended up 11-7. Pretty much uh business as usual for Lemoyne, I would say, you know, uh some notes I had once again, though, CJ Hart. I mean, he uh he had two crazy early saves in that game, you know. So even though they they they lost by four, and to be honest, watching the game, you always felt like Lemoyne, because they were up, they got up four zero, right? You always thought that Lemoine kind of had control of the game. Um, you know, because of their I I think a lot because of their stifling D. There was there was still, you know, St. A still kept on coming back and still fighting and and still still clawing away to try to get try. To get it back and and and win that game.

SPEAKER_00 22:02

Yeah, Lemoyne, clearly a better team, you know. Jerry, they got some studs on that team. Like you said, it was never really never felt like they were out of control of that game. But St. Anselm, you know, gave them a game. They didn't roll over, but it just wasn't their day. They they met a better match that day.

SPEAKER_01 22:23

Yeah, and so some of the stats that came out to me won turnover. So uh Saint A's had 22 to Le Moyne's 15. Um, that was a little bit of a difference, you know. The one that really caught my eye was um Lemoine had 32 shots.

unknown 22:43

St.

SPEAKER_01 22:43

A's had more, they had like 50. Lemoyne had 32 shots with 26 of them being on goal. Wow. Only six were not on goal. So talk about efficiency.

SPEAKER_00 22:57

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I didn't get to watch that game, and um that that's quite that's that's quite the stat right there. That means uh maybe they didn't get a lot of possessions, it looks like, but they did what they had to do when they had the ball.

SPEAKER_01 23:14

Yeah, yeah. So, well, you know, I you you're exactly right. So let's then move on to the Wingate U Indie game, which was a thriller just like the Lenore Ryan and Tampa game. Um, what are your thoughts on that one?

SPEAKER_00 23:28

Oh, that was a great game. It was one of the better games I've seen in a couple of years, really. Uh, that was a good game. Umy was like I said, we said, you know, they played Lindenwood. I said, man, those middies are fast. We talked about how fast those middies are. And they moved the ball really well. They they they had they had uh wingate's short stick D middies are having trouble keeping up with their middies a little bit.

SPEAKER_01 23:58

Yeah, that's the one thing I agree with you. I noticed that going in the third quarter, right? So I thought Wingate's defense played great. I mean, I think they they were the reason they won the game in the end, not the offense. But what I saw in the third quarter was that U Indy's middies really started moving the ball around well, well, and not just passing the ball, but they would they would rotate in position, right? Uh and and that would confuse, especially up top, um wingate defense, which would leave them uh an open shot in the middle.

SPEAKER_00 24:33

Yeah, uh that's exactly what happened. Um, like you like you and these middies were very fast, and are the the the the D middies for Wingate were having trouble keeping up with those guys. They were moving, they were just they it was a fast moving offense, fast moving offense.

SPEAKER_01 24:54

Yeah, yeah. The other one of the stats that was out there was once again the shot differential. So um U Indy had 50 shots and wingate 37. So, you know, um I think that's a little bit of telling of what why U Indy was still in the game because they kept on getting shots that way. I think also the the penalties against Wingate, even though Undie didn't score, still puts you on the defensive and not into your offensive set, right? So I think those are some things. Now, with that said, right, wingate, yeah. Um we're we're talking like you indie won the game, but wingate in the end, you know, they they they were up 8-3, they made it 8-8, they were facing adversity, they came back, then it was a goal back and forth, right? It was 9-8 with about one minute something left, and then or they it was 9-8, and then uh U Indy scored with about a minute 40 left, and you're like, wow, this is going to overtime 9-9 minute left. And then with eight seconds left, and a few seconds before that, you know, you Indy had the ball, the wing gate offense was able to turn it back over, get the ball, and then uh pass it to, I think it was Bobby Patton, passed it to uh Danny Riley, a little up top. It was probably what about seven yards, um, and shot it for the winner with eight seconds left.

SPEAKER_00 26:21

Yeah, that's that's as exciting as lacrosse you can get. Like, you know, here's here's an interesting stat though. Um, the Bulldogs only played their the last two games of their regular season were canceled before the SAC championship conferences. So, what it really came down to is Wingate has only played two games in 40 days.

SPEAKER_01 26:48

Yeah, wow.

SPEAKER_00 26:50

So, you know, that's like think about Division I football, like when the season ends for you know Ohio State and they don't they don't play for 30 or 32 days until you know the playoffs begin.

SPEAKER_01 27:05

So they didn't know, but the other team also has about that much time off. And you Indy just played like a week ago in their championship.

SPEAKER_00 27:14

Well, their championships were later than the SAC.

SPEAKER_01 27:18

That's what I'm saying. So they they were they had it played a uh a game just a lot more recently than than Wingate.

SPEAKER_00 27:25

That's correct. They had continued regular play, whereas um some of the teams in the SAC were done. You know, the tournament was over. So they're for wait waiting for this, but anyway, you know, two games in 40 days, the offense showed that a little bit, I think. Uh they that they weren't as sharp because Wingate's been putting up about 18-19 goals a game, and they were struggling to get goals in that second half week. So that was a really a good game. Like U Indy was really good. They were very impressive.

SPEAKER_01 28:02

Yeah, so it's interesting. Uh in my estimation, in the in the semifinals of next week, it could easily have been U Indy versus Tampa. But Lenore Ryan and Wingate did what they needed to do at the end of the end of the game to to bring it home.

SPEAKER_00 28:19

Exactly correct. That's exactly correct. You know, both won goal games. You know, that's that's what you sign up for, Kev.

SPEAKER_01 28:27

That's oh yeah.

SPEAKER_00 28:29

And and and and teams with really good players all over the field and playing quality lacrosse.

SPEAKER_01 28:36

That's exactly right. That's exactly right.

SPEAKER_00 28:39

There's one ding.

SPEAKER_01 28:43

Inside joke there. So let's now let's go to the semifinals there. We've got uh Lemoyne against Mercyhurst.

SPEAKER_00 28:50

Yeah, oh boy, that's gonna be a great game. And I don't I don't have the nerve to pick one this time. You know, like I I said, I I've I've watched Mercyhurst, I've loved that team all year. And Lemoyne is, you know, they they were number one all year, you know.

SPEAKER_01 29:11

So yeah, I you know, I I I can talk myself into both just like I can with Lenore Ryan and Wingate, right? I I think Wingate needs to clean up some things. I think they need to clean up their clears. Um, you know, it is one thing. Uh, and they need to get better in their offensive flow, like you said, because they have been off and they just weren't clicking. Um, but I I think it's gonna come down probably in both games to the little things, right? Um, that are gonna make the difference.

SPEAKER_00 29:38

Well, uh, you know, the last game between these two, um Wingate had struggled at the X a little bit. So let's see what happens in this game. I think, I think it, you know, the team that gets more precise, these two teams are so well matched, they're so evenly matched. They have it, it's it's they're almost like identical of each other a little bit. That's how good they are. These, these, these are the two best teams in the South. I've been saying it all year.

SPEAKER_01 30:07

Yeah, well, and what's interesting too, what makes us even more exciting, we talked about this last week, right? This is going to this is the rubber match to between the two in this season, and the winner goes to the finals. That's that's who should not be watching this game.

SPEAKER_00 30:24

That's right. That's like what you write in a movie. You know, that's like here you go, you're in the middle of the season, you play the top three team in the country, and you win. And then they you play into the championship and they lose. And then now you have these two teams who are conference foes from the same conference who've played each other twice. Each one of them has a win under their belt. They're completely evenly matched, if you ask me, in my opinion. Um, it's anybody's game, it might come down to the little things, you know, you know, clears and stuff. I think it's gonna be at face-off. I think the team that really gets the most possessions has the better chance to win. I mean, it sounds so clear, but I think in this one, that's it. But to have that rubber match be for a chance at a national championship, that that's gonna be a dog fight. These kids, these kids are gonna, that's gonna be a dog fight. That's that's as good a game as any to watch.

Yeah, I I agree. I you know, um it's because we can't we can't say it any more times that um these two these two semifinal games are are gonna be really fun to watch, and and um, and so I'm I'm looking forward to it. I can I can't wait. Um, just like I couldn't wait last week and it didn't disappoint, it's not gonna disappoint this week either.

SPEAKER_00 31:58

No, it's gonna be a lot of fun, and I'm looking forward to it. This should be great.

SPEAKER_01 32:02

Yeah, and the last thing I would say is obviously we're we're already eating humble pie because we're too chicken to uh to make predictions for those two games.

SPEAKER_00 32:10

I'm not doing it.

SPEAKER_01 32:13

That's good, that's good. Uh, you know, we'll see. I I think they're too close. I I don't know, I wouldn't know who to pick anyway. So I uh I I think they're that close on both sides. So um without Danny, I think we've been here for at least 30 minutes. Um, so I I think it's a good point to to to close out. And uh I thank you once again for joining me. Once it was a blast as always with you.

SPEAKER_00 32:36

Wow, it always goes so fast, Kev. I can't believe how fast 30 minutes went. But um next week we'll have a lot of stuff to talk about. We'll have two great games to talk about, and and we're gonna talk about our all Americans. We're gonna go over the first, second, and third team All-Americans because they were announced this week. And uh I think we definitely uh those kids deserve a shout out, Nash.

SPEAKER_01 32:59

Yeah, you're right. You're exactly right. I uh I wish we could have gone out today, but we'll do it for for next week. So with that. This has been In the Crease. Good night, Danny.
