It's it's it's a new challenge -- ninety I take every challenge pretty seriously whether it's. Coming back off the last during the regular season went regular season loss also mean those are. Those the ones that sometimes take with the all the way through Wednesday's and you just want to get out there and practice again and get it going for the next opponent but. Like I said it's it's a clean slate Allen you know we've we've got to chuckle out there trying to win our first and I think that's the biggest challenge for me."
