I mean, I can speak on this personally, like I got sped up and I had a lot of turnovers. So I feel like with the defensive breakdowns that we're, that we're, that are happening in the game, I feel like this far in the year, we have to do a little bit better and pay a little bit more attention to detail to things like that. Uh uh Reagan, obviously, the, the 14 0 run was in the third period, was decisive. What was going wrong? What were they able to do during that span that, that Duke wasn't able to counter? I mean, Notre Dame is a great team. They got out and ran. Um especially in transition. I know we struggled to get back when we shut the ball and so they're able able to get um easy points like that and just defensively, we communication wise, we just didn't really talk. So I feel like going into the next game, we're really gonna have to work to improve on it. We know that, that Hannah Hidalgo is one of the best players in the country. It steals and obviously I'm sure Duke worked on keeping the ball away from her and she still came away with a bunch of steals. What just, what makes her so good at that aspect of the game? Oh, no, she's great. She had a couple of me too. I mean, she came by surprise a couple of times. I mean, she's just super quick. She's a great athlete. I mean, you gotta give all credit to her. Uh, Reagan, the, the turnovers, I mean, I think it was, I wanna say 21 turnovers and, and 23 points, um, scored off of those turnovers. Um I, I know Notre Dame, this is what they do so well, uh, like you all were just talking about but what, what specifically tonight do you feel kind of went wrong in that the ball handling department? Uh just taking care of the ball? I thought we preach about taking care of the ball each and every game and it's just something that we have to continue to work on.
