Boyle continued to stuff that stat sheet, leading the Crusaders to a Thanksgiving Holiday split in non-conference action, defeating Arlington Baptist and falling to Howard Payne. The senior averaged a remarkable 26.0 points, behind 60.0 percent shooting and 20.5 rebounds per game, highlighted by a 34-point, 16 rebound performance in the win over Arlington Baptist. In addition to his scoring and rebounding, Boyle also averaged 4.5 assists and 3.0 blocks per game. His back to back double double performances were his third and fourth of the season, trailing only Schreiner’s Kamden Ross, who has five, for the most in the SCAC.
Other outstanding performances in the SCAC:
Junior forward Asher Nofziger of Colorado College had a career weekend as the Tigers competed in the Rhodes All-Academic Invitational. The Denver native recorded a career-high 32 points and 16 rebounds against UChicago on Sunday. Nofziger shot 12-27 from the floor, including 2-3 from three-point range and also racked up a steal and a block. It was the most well-rounded and dominant performance of his career. He finished the weekend averaging 22.5 points, 11 rebounds, 2.0 blocks and one assist per game. He also almost lead CC back from a double-digit deficit against No.2 WashU on Saturday.
