"I texted all the captains on that 2012 team, and they just gave me great advice," Manning said. "It's just another week of practice. There's a lot more on the line, but just play with energy and have fun. If there's all these emotions and everybody is kind of tight, we're not going to be playing Loyola lacrosse. So the biggest thing they told me to do was lead my way, the way you've been doing all year. You don't need to change. … Just keep doing the things that got you there. Play loose and dangerous. That's what we always say to the guys. Don't be tight. Just let the game come to you."
