"The fouls took me out of it," Dean said. "I had a lot of energy but maybe I was too anxious. I thought our guys played well."

Harvey and Millard entered the game combining for less than four points per game but they had 12 in the first half as the Cardinals drew within a point before a late run put the Wildcats up 36-30 at halftime.

"You can't just sit back," Foye said. "You've got to get out on them and be aggressive.

"Coach told us we had to come out with a lot of energy. You've got to be tough and you can't get your head down anytime."
