Tate Sage, who was ranked tied for 365th in the 2025 class, scored 19 points in the Sweet 16 as a freshman: "My high school coach sent me a picture before the game. Right outside our locker door, it has a sign that says, 'Play like underdogs.' That was our saying in high school... He just reminded me of that. I carried that with me and kept that in my head all throughout today."
