“That way, in the grits we are not going down hill,” Chu said. “Once you get really tired, the first thing to go is your mind, and to practice at those levels of exhaustion will be key, so we don’t make essential mistakes.”
And hopefully the team will continue to stop making those mistakes, as they are ranked a precarious eighth in the Pairwise rankings—a system that has continuously predicted NCAA tournament rankings.
But the team doesn’t seem too worried about their lower-than-expected seedings.
“Right now that’s the way it goes,” Chu said. “We’ve lost some big games and there are still a lot of games to be played, and a lot can happen.”
