SUMNER LEADS CARROLL TO REGION IV VICTORY

Ben Sumner scored 14 points to spark Carroll County to a big lead, and the Cavaliers went on to a 74-56 Region IV boys' basketball victory over Tazewell on Tuesday night.

The victory advanced the Cavaliers (15-9) to the regional semifinals against Virginia High in Bristol on Thursday at 7 p.m. Tazewell finished 14-9.

Sumner finished with a game-high 24 points, but his output in the first quarter helped Carroll break out to a 25-11 lead. The Cavaliers' lead was down to 35-30 by halftime, but they gradually built it to the final margin in the second half. \
