Chamblee-Druid Hills boys soccer semifinal

Druid Hills came into the match the more highly touted team, but Chamblee dictated the tempo from the outset to come away with the 2-0 victory in the semifinals.

These two teams hooked up at Hallford Stadium in Clarkston Tuesday night. Region 5-AAA has shown itself to be the dominant division in boys Class 3A soccer this spring, sending three teams to the final four: Westminster (1-seed), Druid Hills (2-seed) and Chamblee (3-seed). The No. 4 seed Blessed Trinity fell in the first round. Chamblee will play the final at Westminster on Friday.

Chamblee didn't need a goal from DeKalb County-leading scoring artist Riley Sumpter (headed to Clemson next year), getting goals from Malick Camara in the first half and Jarred Clark in the second.
