Carlow hit the last three points to close out the victory.
Decision making under pressure is what cost Laois in their battle to avoid relegation from Division 1B of the National Hurling League on Saturday.
That's according to O'Moore County manager Tommy Fizgerald after his side's demotion to Division 2A was sealed in a three point defeat in Portlaoise.
The final score in O'Moore Park was 29 points to 2-26.
Fitzgerald says his players didn't have the composure they needed at the end
