Former Florida High grad Tyrelle Blair came home to haunt Florida State. Blair hit a 15-foot jumper with 3.3 seconds remaining, handing the Seminoles a 68-67 loss to Boston College today at the Civic Center.
FSU’s Ryan Reid grabbed the rebound after Al Thornton blocked BC freshman Shamari Spears. But Sean Marshall dislodged the ball from Reid in the paint and the ball went out of bounds off FSU’s freshman forward.
That extended the possession for Blair, who made his only basket of the game count. The 6-foot-11 junior center had six rebounds and six blocked shots for the Eagles (18-6, 9-2 ACC), who gained sole possession of first place in the conference.
FSU nearly answered right back but an inbound heave to Al Thornton was dropped and that was the game.
FSU (17-8, 5-6) was playing its first game without point guard Toney Douglas, who broke his right hand Wednesday against Clemson.
