OVERALL PERFORMANCE
The Kansas Jayhawks weren't supposed to beat the Ohio State Buckeyes and throughout most of the game, that looked to be true. At one point they were losing by 13 in the first half and went into the half trailing by nine. But then, just like every other game during this tournament, the Jayhawks flipped a switch. The defensive intensity appeared and caused problems for the Buckeyes. Slots started falling.

"We knew we were ready to take this step when we understood that we could handle arguments and still be okay," Lemburg said. "There will always be something to fight about, but when you and your significant other realize that trivial things are not worth fighting over, life becomes a lot easier."
Lemburg said that her boyfriend's dad is very conservative, so she was nervous when she and her boyfriend decided to tell him about moving in together. Before delivering the news, Lemburg and her boyfriend discussed the reasons they were moving in together and planned out what to say to her boyfriend's father.

Young's energy is undeniable. He comes off the bench and is just a spark with hustle on every play. His high-octane motor causes him to get in foul trouble, but he is able to keep plays alive more times than not. Out of his five rebounds, four were on the offensive side of the ball. He failed to score, but his energy and relentlessness is what Kansas needs coming off the bench.
