Second one, I make a save and it just disappears with the net-front coverage,\u201d Wedgewood said. \u201cSomehow, I guess, he grabbed it and threw it to himself and scored. We turned one over and they make a nice triple pass, backdoor tap in. No one&#8217;s stopping it. And then they turn it over again, they make another three-pass play, and no one&#8217;s stopping it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut you just got to go through the routine, wash each one of them and prepare for the next one no matter how [rough] it is.
