Carver scoring runs put an end to Stanhope's season

There was very little separating Stanhope Elmore and Carver-Montgomery for most of Friday’s super regional match in Montgomery. However, a handful of scoring runs from the Rams turned the momentum and Carver turned that into a three-set volleyball sweep to eliminate the Mustangs.

Stanhope Elmore’s Marissa Stephens got a kill to even the score at 9-9 in the first set but Carver stared pull away from there, scoring 16 of the final 19 points to take the first set. Each of the final two sets included two runs of at least five consecutive points for Carver as the Rams won, 25-12, 25-18, 25-16.
