Boyle continues to struggle to seal the deal. I think Boyle is a pretty solid team for 3 1/2 quarters but simply cannot close out opponents.

Looking as far back as the Clay County game, Boyle has lost double digit, 4th quarter leads, 5 times this year.

They better find and keep that killer instinct if they want any success in the post season.

It's maddening. Every single time. Silly turnover after silly turnover. And it's always late in the game. They'll have single digit turnovers with 4 minutes left and will end the game with 15+ turnovers.
