East Surry also won last night, defeating Hiwassee Dam 52-36 behind 16 points from Courtney Simmons. East pulled away with a 20-5 run in the fourth quarter.
McGuinness (27-4) and East Surry (26-5) will play for the regional title and a berth in next weekend's Class 1-A state final at noon Saturday at UNC Greensboro's Fleming Gym.
It will be the fourth game this season between the Northwest Conference rivals. McGuinness won the first three.
