To add onto these questions and answers, another question that was asked was, “what are your preferred pre-game and post game routines?” This question had been answered almost the same for all 3 boys, Quaker had stated that he likes to try and get hyped up for the games and Goodling had added on that they focus on getting undressed and dressed as soon as possible, Gutshall added on that he likes to shower.
