No. 7 seed South Carolina posted another big upset during the Sweet 16 on Friday, rolling over No. 3 seed Baylor in a 70-50 win.

A major key for the Gamecocks was their suffocating defense. They held the Bears to just 28 percent shooting in the first half and 37 percent in the second.

Following the game, 13-year-old Sports Illustrated Kids reporter Max Bonnstetter asked South Carolina head coach Frank Martin about what he prioritizes when teaching the Gamecocks to play tenacious defense. Martin's response is sure to put a smile on your face.
