“That’s a good win for us,” Lucas said. “We had a good day of practice the other day. We talked about accountability, talked about being professional and starting to grow up. … We’re better than young. We’re not great, but we are better than young. We’re going to make some mistakes, but I think we did a great job.”“From the beginning we’ve been preaching about being a defensive team and making that our identity,” Porter said.
