South Newton better have a healthy lead at halftime, because if last week is any indication, that's when Carroll really get things going. Everything went Carroll's way against Taylor on Friday as Carroll made off with a 49-28 win. The Cougars have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won eight contests by 20 points or more this season.
