Shelby County, the eighth ranked team in this week's BGP poll, gets their seventh straight win and improves to 14-2.

Sounds as if Boyle hung in there.... decently

Boyle Co. is traditionally a slow starter, how did they look in this game (for anyone who attended)?

Boyle was up in this game 24-10 at halftime. Shelby looked uninspired to start the game and managed only 8 points in the first quarter and 2, yes that's right, two in the second quarter. I don't know what their head coach said during half but with 5 minutes to play in the third Shelby already had a 6 point lead and by the end of the third had stretched to to almost 20. I don't what light switch their coach hit but the Shelby team that came out of the locker room was a certified monster. Boyle had trouble getting anything going at all because at times it looked like there were seven or eight Shelby players on the floor at once. Slaughter killed the Rebels in the second half and Shelby's other wing player, #25, scored 17 in the third. The big kid from Boyle had a monster night somewhere around 30 points and 20 boards but when Shelby turned it on it the game was over. I'll be the first to say this: if the Shelby team that came out in the second half is there for the rest of the season they could be one of the handful of teams with a legitimate shot to walk away with at all in Rupp.
