The 5-foot-9 senior guard had led the Dark Horses to a 29-2 record and a berth in the Class 2A state championship game at the time of her selection. Boykin averaged 38.1 points, 14.0 rebounds, 6.5 assists and 5.8 steals through 31 games. A First Team All-State honoree as a freshman-and having missed her sophomore and junior seasons due to injury-she is the Four County Conference Player of the Year and was named Most Outstanding Player at the John Wall Holiday Invitational. Boykin is ranked as the nation's No. 18 recruit in the Class of 2017 by Blue Star Basketball.
Boykin has maintained a weighted 3.97 GPA in the classroom. She has signed a National Letter of Intent to play basketball on scholarship at Duke University this fall.
Boykin has volunteered locally on behalf of youth basketball programs and a toy collection drive for needy children. "Boykin is a great player, the best high school player I've seen in 21 years of coaching," said William Jeffers, head coach at Wallace-Rose Hill High. "She can handle the ball with either hand, she can go inside or shoot the deep ball, and she's very cool under pressure. She can play on any level for any school in this state."
