I think this goes for any game, really, and it's very, very important for teams to understand. We had a ton of members graduate in 2010, probably more than 40% of the team, and in 2011, we only had one senior. Most members were either freshmen or sophomores, and we didn't know nearly as much as a team with senior leadership would know. During, the last two years, and especially just last fall, we significantly more team rebuilding and training than we ever had done. In 2011 and 2012, too much of it happened during the build season, and we wasted a lot of material, time, and money.
